Quote:First, Paul says, "Be ready to give an account."


What if "paul" is as phony as the rest of the story?

"Paul" is symbolism and allegory Chad. That quote is actually extolling the virtues of blueberry waffles, you just didn't translate it properly.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Swedenborgians don't consider the Epistles of Paul inspired. I was quoting Paul back to Undeceived , because he would consider the Epistles authoritative.

And actually, Paul means a liar that claimed himself to be an apostle and who now burns in Hell because he loved his own preaching more than the Gospel.

Actually, the Roman cognomen Paulus means "little." Perhaps Paul had a little dick, too?

Swedenborgians can consider whatever they like whatever they like(which they obviously do). Hell and burning are symbols and allegory. Moveable feast

...symbols and allegories that describe the state of a persons character, just to be clear.

"The state of a persons character" is just symbol and allegory, just to be clear.

It's a long list. just one more:

Quote: So when they continued asking him, he lifted himself up, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. (john 8:7 KJV)

A classic tu quoque fallacy. (appeal to hypocrisy) I may not use your crimes to excuse my crimes or the crimes of others.
