No he did not.

What you guys don't seem to get is that attonement is and always has been the key to the law. It's always been apart of the law. You can have a list of thou shalt nots without away to attone for those who do those thou shalt nots.

Jesus is always in perfect agreement with the Father (John 10:30), so we cannot argue that war was only God’s will in the Old Testament. God does not change (Malachi 3:6; James 1:17).

Anything to say, Drich?

Actually I have a couple of questions.
What is this spam of verses in reference to?
Why did you feel the need to quote several different translations?
Why are the quotes (some of them) incomplete?
Why have all of the. Been taken out of context?
What are you trying to say with this mess?

Well in order for a Fred phelps to get a god hates fags message out of the bible he must cut and paste various passages from all over the bible, and pull them Together with a sermon. The same thing is done with a liberal message. I do things differently. In that I use whole chapters and even books to outline what it is I teach.

You are not different from Fred Phelps in how you come to your conclusions. The only difference is the conclusions you've drawn.

Quote:You truly can't be this dense.

Do you understand the following?

The law is more than a list of do's and don't's the law also includes attonement.

That's been my point all along. You say that you're atoning, but you know you're not being sincere. Someone who is sincere about atoning for not doing the dos, and doing the don'ts, will try with every fiber of their being, to model their behavior in the right way. Someone who is insincere will try to interpret the law such that their behavior doesn't violate it, or that the law itself isn't applicable to them. That is what you do.

Quote:The do's and don't only make up 1/3 of the law. What of the other 2/3s? In your understanding of the bible it does not even seem that your aware of it. In your fail athesis version of the law, what do you do with the parts of the law that deal with repentance and attonement?? You know that parts that Jesus said would never go away?

Would you accept the apology of someone who immediately returned to doing the behavior you didn't want them to do? If they never stopped? If they never had any intention of stopping?

Come off it, you fraud. You can't fool the omniscient if you can't fool me.

Why can't you address the point I have made to you ten times now? Why do you keep skirting the issue? Is it your belief that I don't know that attonement is written in the law, or is it you do not know how to respond so you keep talking in circles in hopes that I follow one of your red herring topics and drop the attonement bit?

These verses were in reference to when you told the Bible quotes didn't apply because they are from the Old Testament.
Because of the sources I used, I suppose.
Which quotes are incomplete?
Go ahead, explain the context; most of them seem fairly easy to understand.
Let me explain it to you, okay?
The first quote is where Jesus himself states that the law still applies, and there are more of these types of quotes, where he still supports the law.
The second quote refers to how ALL scripture is apparently divinely inspired.
The third quote is talking about whoever talks crap about their parents deserves to die.
The fourth quote supports slavery.
The fifth quote is talking about how it's perferable for you to harm yourself, then to "sin". Or it's talking about rejecting Church members who disagree.
The last quotes were already explained.

Reason this out drich. Pretend for a second you're a proud atheist serving and fighting for your country. You are now getting ready to take on a heavy fire fight... Bullets flying everywhere...

Do they still have bible verses on military scopes?

What does an elected president of the country you're fighting for think of atheist?

Just saying.

Your anecdote doesn't cancel out his anecdote.

If God wrote at above a 3 years old's skill level, we wouldn't need to interpret his perfect words.

Let's have a look at how relevant jesus' teachings are:

His 'company?'

Lol. Yeah. Your cousin isn't a Ranger.

Colonels are brigade COs. Not company COs. Company COs are captains.

By the way, that's a little something we call "stolen valor."

By the way, chaplains do not offer prayers in the middle of a firefight. For one thing, they are unarmed noncombatants. For another thing, Rangers are not going to stop shooting the enemy to drop to their knees and start praying, and Rangers are not units that are supposed to stop and slog; they're QRF and light infantry, which means they move fast, hit fast, and kill fast. Finally, the Rangers did not participate in the push towards Baghdad; they were too busy dropping from planes to take over the Haditha Dam, known as Objective Serpent.

Your "cousin" would not be aware of the direct goings-on of his troops to such a detail as to say "none of them refused the chaplain," either, as he would be far too busy directing the operations of 1000+ men.

Did you seriously try to pull an SV on someone who actually DOES have family in the 75th? SERIOUSLY? You didn't think you would be called out?

You fucking liar.

His anecdote isn't even a real one; it's a blatant lie, and he's starting to seriously piss me the fuck off.

My second cousin's ex-boyfriend's aunt has a brother who is a Commodore in the Navy Rangers, and he said that all the atheists in his battalion cried out "Oh Jesus Save Me!" when their boat came under fire in a foxhole.

I don't think even the movies would depict something so unlikely as two opposing sides who are so civilized that they let each other have time to say a prayer to their respective deities before they start shooting.
