Yes that right.
I never listened to the teachers at school, I wandered if they were really teaching me the truth

You are certainly ignorant of CONTEXT, that's for sure.And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved. But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come. The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his lord. It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household? (Mat 10:22-25 KJV)

I knew you didn't understand what Paul was saying about "judging all things". You don't even understand the difference between the wisdom of the world (natural man) and the wisdom of God.
1 Cor. 2:4-8 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought: 7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: 8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
I'll pass on your "quick and dirty" comparisons. You've proven who you are, already.
You have not been here a full two weeks yet. I will go ahead and edit the vulgar post since you are a newbie.

In other words, I will not make plain where I stand on matters I hold dear.
Got it. :AMR:
We will just have to await your forthcoming enlightened teachings and decide for ourselves, for after all, you are far above the fray, unwilling to dip into the pool of the hoi polloi and sully yourself on the particulars.
Sigh.

:think: ▼ This?▼
As far as I understand the passage, it doesn't apply to you. As far as this site, most of them agree it doesn't apply to you. You can either find out the theology of the sponsors of this site, or muddle your way through. Cobra is going the harder route. I see you are friends with Cobra? :think:And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved. But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.

Does the Pope wear his hat in the woods? :think: Does a bear...well, no.
The "presumption" of gender is natural enough absent particularizing, given the makeup around here and the tendency to drift into the masculine as a neutral expression in writing. The presumption on faith is really up to you to clarify and your early comments had me thinking that you are likely an unorthodox member of the Body. If not, we have a number who aren't and it's not a death sentence around here.Uh... Thanks. Of course this is based upon the presumption that I am a Christian.
You don't know him, but I have for a number of years, in agreement and disagreement. AMR was being helpful, both for you and those interested. He's a good soul and possesses a keen intellect, one that doesn't insist on conformity of agreement for fellowship and discourse, but desires the sort of clarity that can only facilitate a meaningful difference, agreement and understanding between people.
Your response, "I don't care" was needlessly confrontational and to decry judgement as you have and then issue a declaration about what he cares about, judging him indifferent in the face of an effort that spoke to interest...that really isn't helping you in any sense unless you've come with the intent to play at something, which I hope isn't the case.
He provided you links to some fairly reputable inquiries that will clarify your position within orthodoxy. They're a bit like the political tests you run into from time to time. I took them out of a natural curiosity. It's one way to stake ground or provide foundation for people who don't know you.
And if you aren't sure or aren't comfortable with a definite position on this or that, honest admission on the point is nothing shameful and should be appreciated as the mark of an honest exploration.
With regret, some evidence to the contrary, Zenn. But it's early in the day, so here's hoping for a better continuation all around. :cheers:

Quite a bit of gross and basal language here. What did you say your IQ and education level were again? Did you read the parts in Paul's letters where you should refrain from coarse jesting, and crude basal language? :think: Ephesians 4:29; 5:4 Colossians 3:8-11 Or do you disdain the scriptures like your friend 2003Cobra? I wonder if he knew cobras were poisonous... :think:

Do not worry Zenn, they haven't worked themselves up into a full frenzy of mouth frothing yet.
They call themselves Christian but they would talk like Christ if they were.

Its a debate website. Were you looking for a lot of peace love and harmony? Here? Read some of his posts. He's coming out swinging himself. To me, most are congenial, if a bit challenging. We all need our faith and beliefs brought through testing. I don't see it as bad as you do?
Isn't this a bit like the pot calling the kettle black? I'm ever amazed that the verses are different, but the song is the song sounds the same. We can't attack our own OR the other guy without looking like we are attacking. The innocence card doesn't play. Know what I mean?
