@winterduck04 Because it's a country almost without History: its History was that of the native americans, which were suppressed in a horrible genocide, deleted & then deported in reservation that looks like big dogs' cages.
Shame on you.

[Christian'987 @MariaVergineD]

@ShawnOnMission @grok @MrCasey62 @grok the Canon of the Bible was fluid before the coming of Christ, since the Revelation wasn't closed

[Christian'987 @MariaVergineD]

@mindbodymoveuk @ADevotedYogi @TheInsiderPaper Exactly. Even the international penal court condemned this genocide; Gaza has the highest percentage of mutilated children; Israel murdered more children in Gaza than the entire World's war put together during the last 12 years, & still they are blind.

@Madhava66651235 @13thschizoidman @ADevotedYogi @TheInsiderPaper It all began with the nakba: mass executions, ethnical cleansing, forced deportations of hundreds of thousands of palestinians, illegal occupation of their lands. It went on for about 70 years between massacres & despise for palestinians' human rights.

@ShawnOnMission @MrCasey62 ... condemn Saul. The prophet came not because the woman summoned him, but because God, disgusted by this yet another sin of Saul, provided condemnation upon him, who was the chosen king of the people of God.
This same fact, Indeed, is yet another condemnation of magic.

@ShawnOnMission @MrCasey62 God in Exodus kill the firstborn children of Egyptians, even if it's written "thou shalt not kill".
Do you want to judge God?
Moreover, God didn't send Saul to that woman: Saul did with his own free will, & God replied to this offense by actually sending his prophet to...

[Christian'987 @MariaVergineD]

@ShawnOnMission @MrCasey62 I never said you made those accusations against Genesis etc., I was saying that, exactly like you, other people refuse the Bible as Word of God by saying "there are many Historical mistakes, & cruelty" etc.
The Truth is they do not understand the Word of God. Don't be like them.

[Christian'987 @MariaVergineD]

@ShawnOnMission @MrCasey62 I was saying that your accusation against the deuterocanonical books are similar to those made against the Torah, the gospels & other sacred texts you accept.

[Christian'987 @MariaVergineD]

@ShawnOnMission @MrCasey62 St Augustine (IV century) explain how the woman doing divination was doing that for Saul's order (not for God's order) & since Saul was the king of the people God had chosen, He sent his prophets to reproach Saul & to tell he was about to fall.
Again, don't forget the line...

[Christian'987 @MariaVergineD]

@ShawnOnMission @MrCasey62 The apparition of the prophet Samuel to king Saul? God use even evil people sometimes. Anyway, go back to the line: you are between the atheists asking "is it God cruel? All those children killed in the Bible!" & those that "Creation in Genesis is wrong. Cannot be God's Word".

@ADevotedYogi @sheriran95 1- My name is Christian, & I am a man.
2- I presented facts, you presented nothing.
3- Yes, Netanyahu said "even If all hostages are released I won't stop the war. Now, hostages are seen as the only card to play for palestinians' not to be all killed.

@grok @ShawnOnMission @MrCasey62 This is important, Shawn. The reason you accept Hebrews, James, 2 & 3 John, Jude & the book of revelation as Word of God it's because the Catholic Church fixed them in the NT Canon in the same councils they fixed the deuterocanonical books.
Either you accept or refuse all of them

[Christian'987 @MariaVergineD]

@grok @ShawnOnMission @MrCasey62 @grok before the Canon of the Bible was fixed with either NT books & deuterocanonical in OT, there were other books who later entered the Canon of the NT (e.g. the book of revelation) who weren't universally accepted? Once fixed, the Bible Canon was dominant until XVI century?

[Christian'987 @MariaVergineD]

@grok @ShawnOnMission @MrCasey62 @grok there is even the reference to Maccabees 7 in hebrews 11:35?
@ShawnOnMission as you saw, THE SAME PLACE & MOMENT in which the NT Canon was fixed (Carthage & hyppo councils) the deuterocanonical books were fixed too & in early Christianity broad acceptance dates to I century

[Christian'987 @MariaVergineD]

@grok @ShawnOnMission @MrCasey62 @grok There are mentions & quotes in the gospel of Matthew & in letters of st Paul to the deuterocanonical books in authoritative ways? Early Christian authors since the I century, like Clement (91 AD) & then Polycarp etc. Quoted the deuterocanonical books in authoritative way?

[Christian'987 @MariaVergineD]

@grok @ShawnOnMission @MrCasey62 @ShawnOnMission @grok most believers in Early Christianity used the deuterocanonical books as Word of God? Jerome, who initially doubted them, accepted them later? since my friend here surely ignored your reply: when the NT Canon was fixed the deuterocanonical were present?

[Christian'987 @MariaVergineD]

This is a sign of ignorance: they don't know that private revelations like these can be believed or not & most, in this case, do not (for many reasons). To minimize all devotion toward the mother of God (Luke 1:43) present since early Christianity, is ignorant & demonic.

[Christian'987 @MariaVergineD]

@ADevotedYogi @sheriran95 Netanyahu said loud & clear: WE WON'T STOP WAR EVEN IF HAMAS GIVES BACK ALL THE HOSTAGES 👇 that's why I am amazed when I read the argument you made: did people in USA forgot that?
P. S. Hamas tried & gave back most of them, Israel ruined everything.

[MrCasey @MrCasey62]

You know you’ve completely lost the argument when you have to resort to insulting @michaelbd: 🧵

[Christian'987 @MariaVergineD]

@ShawnOnMission @grok @MrCasey62 Weird, because early Christianity knew it was God's Word, & accepted them into the Canon.
Already most jews, especially from the diaspora, accepted them as well; but as christian you must know that the same christians who accepted the 4 Gospels accepted deuterocanonical too.

[Christian'987 @MariaVergineD]

@IndianaBrunner Baptism is founded upon the blood of Christ: He save those children.
Didn't you read how entire houses, children as well, were baptized? (Acts of the apostles 16:15).
Didn't you read how John the baptist was filled with the Holy Spirit while he was still in the womb? (Luke 1:15).
