@TCWfan@StandswithGod Do you actually understand what lust is? Finding someone attractive is not lust. Lust is a selfish desire that turns a natural longing into an obsessive craving for something forbidden, treating people as objects for self-gratification.
@TCWfan@StandswithGod Do the old Covenant laws also have laws about what food we can eat and Jesus does away with that? And Paul's repetition means nothing to me of Jesus didn't say it verbatim. Paul's additions to the Word put him on thin ice with Galatians 1:8
@TCWfan@StandswithGod If the Father let the Son die to the schemes of the Pharisees, did He not deserve it? This is why you don't hold that path of thinking and only hold to the framework Jesus gave us.
@INCMaxi@trad_west_ You continue to murder your enemy in your heart. Repent and turn away before you're left alone after saying "Lord Lord, in your name we drove out those demon atheists!"
@TCWfan@StandswithGod Well I'm not arguing that gay people need to become straight or perfectly obedient before Jesus will save them. However why do you believe a faithful same-sex relationship is something Jesus actually identifies as sin? If I'm wrong in assuming you believe that, forgive me.
@TCWfan@StandswithGod I don't disagree that salvation isn't earned through flawless law-keeping. My question is separate: what makes a particular behavior sinful under Jesus' teaching, and how do you establish that from Jesus rather than simply assuming the conclusion from a traditional list of sins?
@TCWfan@StandswithGod So you made the claim I said I do not sin because you imply that when I called you out on yours? You just broke the 9th commandment to not bear false witness.
@TCWfan@StandswithGod Oh, so ignorance of the law invites a pass to the consequences? Sorry, but the WORD is God, not a book. If the Holy Spirit was in him he knew what he was doing was evil.
@FrogginInHobo@SHEEPSLIVE I call you out on your sin of hatred for an enemy and your response is to accuse me of being the one who sins? Be careful that your pride and anger towards me does not make you murder me in your heart. Go forth and pull the plank from your eye before claiming speck in mine.
@INCMaxi@trad_west_ Yes. Have you spoken to every atheist or are you generalizing so you don't have to listen to them? If you want to correct this in yourself, think "atheists who think 'X'"
@HopeBloomMusic@StevenErtelt WOAH, hold on! Why did you stop?! Why would you edit Jesus to say what you want him to say?!!! BLASAPHEMER!
but seriously, the second commandment is as great as the first and Jesus explains why they are both linked, in separable in Matthew 25:31-46
@TCWfan@StandswithGod What heavier burden can their be than "you are evil by merely existing"? I bring good news to the poor and persecuted that God smiles on them even while the goats call them "sinners" for loving their spouse.
@TCWfan@StandswithGod So when Elisha murdered 42 children for making fun of him, that was ok? You don't know how to apply Jesus's teachings to the old testament which is the whole point. Elisha FAILED to love his enemies and we should recognize that failure. The same with Samuel and the retaliation.
