3 ways Jesus read the bible.

RE: 3 ways Jesus read the bible.
Spiderman got his superpowers from a lab experiment, Drich got his from gawd!
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!

Actually no. The authorization Came from God. The compilation came from Church councils.

Quote:You admit, therefore, that even though many texts (including whole books) considered by popular Christians to be "God's word" are universally recognized by both Christian and secular scholars to be later forgeries and interpolations, while earlier authentic works were left out of the Canon, your faith ultimately lies, like the Catholics whom you hypocritically criticize, in the authority of the Church.
ROFLOL this is a crazy claim, where did you get this idea?
(I am asking for a link)

I Wrote:You have failed to establish hyprocrisy here. The doctrines of men apart from scripture orginate with man and have not been given the authority to determine or repersent the will of God. While the scriptures have.
you Wrote:Thus sayeth the High Drich... whose words,
Are backed by the defination of the word hyprocrisy.

Quote: Right, granting the ultimate authority of the Church which has chosen for you the reading materials you are allowed to use for such purposes... of which your anti-Sola Ecclesia personality, the majority of biblical scholars, and many Christians, respectfully (I almost said reasonably but that's questionable here) disagree.

again, loft claim. where is your proof?

What's the basis of your claim that the twenty-seven books contained in the N.T. were authorized by God? Did you dream that up in your stupor?

You're asking where is my "proof" that many Christians disagree with your interpretation of the Bible or what can properly be considered legitimate sources of divine inspiration and wisdom (or in the case of some N.T. epistles, may be omitted)? And you're stating it's a "loft claim" to assert that mainstream scholarship, Christian and non, admit of many interpolations and entire forgeries contained within the official Church / popular Canon?

Lol. Wow, not quite on to the meat and potatoes yet? This is pretty basic stuff anyone even remotely interested in anything beyond a surface level understanding of the Bible immediately discovers. Like Jesus, Google is also your friend. Seek and ye shall find.

lol, when and where do you live? Sounds like a place i want to live. Here in reality laws are passed by popular vote. laws that allow abortion, adultry, gay marriage, smoking pot, and all sorts of things that the bible outlines as sinful. maybe we oughta switch.

Double edged sword F/F. Double edge sword. Do you hear me complaining about the violation of one of God's most santified covenants when gay people decide to get married? Do you hear me rant about how my religious freedoms are being restricted when I can not lead my workers in prayer, or hold devotions in my business?

It's call compromise F/F. Neither gets all that he wants. (which is a good thing unless your just a plain ole biggot.)

I am asking you to provide links for everything you are asserting here just as I have. Nothing more nothing less.

Again, I did not make the claim you did. I'm sorry ad hoc reasoning and appeals to peer pressure will not work here. I go through great lengths to support absolutly everything I say when asked. I am now asking you to do the same.

It's time to put up or shut up. i have called you bluff, now let me see your cards.[/quote]

Good lord, has talking with Drich always been this similar to pigeon-chess? "I go through great lengths to support absolutly everything I say when asked." What? No you don't, you just assert things and throw meaningless links at us.

on the arrogance part:

On the inaccuracy, I would say we live in a soceity that currently meets in the middle if not more to the left/no God. Our laws and collective mind set as a people towards the things of God proove this.

No shit Drich, that's because we've stopped using the Bible as a base of reasoning for a healthy society. At least, most of us have.

does your mother still chew your food for you?

The links i provide are third party verfication of my arguements. Granted you might have to read a little and think for yourself some, but you will get there if you are honest with yourself and follow the evidence provided. If you like i can cut and paste the specific parts that show you youre wrong, and i am right..Big Grin

No, Drich. Posting links from organizations that are explicitly Christian and then using them as evidence for your Christian assertions does not count as third-party.
