Why do you think I added Liberators name to the comment. Do you have a reading comprehension problem?
Honest answer please. If abortion is a virtue you should be proud. LOL. Yeah right. Didn't your therapist ever talk to you about maintaining boundaries?
This is what I was referring to. Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
Didn't your therapist ever talk to you about boundaries? Anyone who hasn't had an abortion wouldn't be ashamed to answer the question. It is obvious you had an abortion. Do you feel guilty at all?
Matthew 5:17
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" I lurk to see if someone other than Myst or Pookie posts anything...
It is obvious you had an abortion. Do you feel guilty at all? More of your splitting. Don't you ever wonder why you are so unpopular on other forums? You actually drive others away from your political point of view because of your own neurosis.
That's a "none of your busines" question if ever there was one.

Well yea. Tyrant means lone ruler or big boss and has carried out genocidal acts like the flood, etc. I guess the flood makes God an eco-terrorists as well. In fact the Bible says we should fear God so he is a terrorist - initiator of terror.
With the economy still in the dumper -- maybe permanently? -- and full-time jobs becoming as scarce as rain during a drought, huge percentages of Americans have had their (misplaced) faith in the American dream shaken, the upper-middle-class consumerist lifestyle is exposed as a mirage for anybody who plays by the rules. Capitalism and the America that embraced it as a way of life is now and forever more a failure. It does me good to know that the generation that voted in Reagan and his ideology will see their America die from that ideology before their very own eyes and knowing they had a hand in its destruction.
Why aren't any of us surprised? God is pro illegal Mexicans since he ignores American prayers to keep them out of the USA.

Hence, the quality of your holes.
Really? I suppose you can produce that citation? If not, you are what most of us know you are: A DAMNED LIAR. Tick...tick...
"It's not surprising, then, they [White Pennsylvanians] get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations." ~ Comrade-in-Chief Barry Hussein 0bama
It's called weather patterns that happen every 7-10 years or so. I lived in Texas for 12 years, we had 2 droughts and 2 rainy years in that period of time and the rest was normal........ Lakes would be down 50' one year because of no rain and be overfull 2 years later because of the rains...... nothing unusual whatsoever....
When asked by a Liberal what I bought my Granddaughter for her 1st birthday I replied, "MORE AMMUNITION"!!!! -----------------------------"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
Nice rebuttal... And then he said something about fulfilling it.

You don't have to; Only that whatever is pecked and typed by mininggold is either a twisted lie or lie-by-omission.

Menza-menza interpretation. You got some of it right. He did come to "fulfill" the law, not "change" it.

No... Tyrant: a : an absolute ruler unrestrained by law or constitution b : a usurper of sovereignty 2 a : a ruler who exercises absolute power oppressively or brutally b : one resembling an oppressive ruler in the harsh use of authority or power http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/tyrant Whose sovereignty is God "usurping"? Is God "oppressing" you right now? Since when does a tyrant allow freedom? Or grant mercy or clemency? In fact the Bible says we should fear God so he is a terrorist - initiator of terror. I suppose so are Mommy and Daddy "terrorists" - along with spiders and snakes, and the goobermint (for real.) It is by God's love and mercy that sinners-all have the opportunity (through Free Will) of dwelling in His Kingdom of Paradise forever. IF you insist on doing things your way, I guess like a petulant little child, you'd consider God mean ol' "terrorist." I guess the flood makes God an eco-terrorists as well.... If you say so, Sybil.

That is the lesser definition.

God is THE Author of ALL Law. His "constitution" is the Bible. What would "restrain" the power and will of God?? OTOH, even "tyrants" must and will die. That must sadden you and other Leftists.

Dictators write their own laws as well.

In fact the Bible says we should fear God so he is a terrorist - initiator of terror. Look at it this way Godwinson. If there truly was a being that created us. And that being is all knowing. If that being is pure good. Then do you think that he might have known something that you don't. Maybe he knew something that you don't and I don't and none of us can comprehend. What the whole earth was filled with evil right wingers and tea baggers. Noah and his family that went on the arc were the last Christian Democrats on earth. Jeb Bush was president of the world. Do you think God would have been just in those circumstances?
See above.
Sorry Libby...I nailed it. The context of the Sermon on the Mount was that the law existed as an earthly covenant between people that, once followed, established the more important spiritual covenant with God. And in the end, he established a new law, ironically based on the Beatitudes and "Love thy neighbor..." and a new convenant - born again blah blah blah - anyway...
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" I lurk to see if someone other than Myst or Pookie posts anything...
No one who allows evil to flourish can be pure good.

Good morning war. That is why God brought the flood.
Then why did Jesus say he didn't come to destroy the law?
Only to promise never to do it again... It was actually the second time that he had destroyed the world...the first time being Eden, which he sealed with a Flaming Sword... But the GOd of the Old Testamant was a feisty old cuss. He didn't like to be screwed with.

God didn't need to bring the flood to wipe out the human race and every other living thing with it.

"...all of the equations in neoclassical economics are rubbish. The differential equations describe nothing. Economics is not about mathematics, it is about the human being." Sandeep Jaitly
Jesus revealed "himself" over time and his purpose on earth. If you recall, the "Messiah" of the Old Testament was one who was going to "save" the Jews by freeing them from all bondage. The working assumption being that Jesus would be a literal warrior. No one expected him to preach that salvation wasn't prisoner to a condition of servitude or freedom. No one expected him to preach that salvation was a function of peace, love and understanding. So yes, obey the laws and the prophets by...BELIEVING IN HIM and his message. What was the law but God's word? What were the prophets but purveyors of God's will? What was the Messiah? The embodiement of both.

It was within the context of the Sermon and very early in his ministry. He didn't reveal the full purpose of his presence to his disciples until The Last Supper. When he was asked "What is the greatest commandment?" He actually cited two. One is similar to the first commandment but tempered slightly. The second is a commandment that cannot be found in Exodous. It is, however, the underpinning of some of the laws in Leviticus, a good portion of which is a social welfare code. Do you know what the commandment was?

Lets see if I remember without looking it up. It was about loving. That could sum up all the 10 commandments if you think about it.
I heard sermons preached with the theme that Christ was condensing the 10 commandments into two with His response. Interesting - "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind." is a pretty good summation of the 1st five commandments; and "Love your neighbor as yourself" summarizes 6-10.
I'm sure he could have done it another way. To bad you weren't there to give him some advice. He might have done a better job huh? ;)
Ha, I basically said what you said only a few seconds earlier.
(Stone): I'm sure he could have done it another way. To bad you weren't there to give him some advice. He might have done a better job huh? ;) I've been served navy chow that might have done the trick.
Yes. But I find the morphology, or condensing as you say, an interesting twist to the question. When Christ finished by stating: "On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets" [Mt22:40], the whole sense of mortal Christianity is established. Thinks about it: Love God...Love others...and the last, accept Jesus as Saviour is the whole of it. I've always found the Book of Matthew to be the most compelling Gospel in terms of what a Christian should be. Of course, I also believe the risen from the dead stuff to be a bunch of fairy tales. But, IMHO, Matthew gives the clearest course of moral conduct out of any of the Gospels.

The same atmospheric conditions that are brining drought to Texas are keeping California's weather mild this summer. I doubt those who are quick to attribute disasters to god's judgment on a people for tolerating gays and abortion will claim that god is now blessing California with good weather.
