Quote:I'm talking about the exact point of the text. The quote was from a king to slay people who didn't agree with him. The 'believers' or those who believed but didn't act upon their beliefs and were then spiritually dead though choice. I have no idea how you reached your conclusion... it just isn't ever suggested.
Read back through the discussion as it has evolved and you might get it then.
Quote:Unless you intended to make something imperfect. You are all powerful and only you can know what would be perfect to you. In our minds we cannot judge what is perfect and what isn't.
Okay, going back to a previous post of mine, perfection is to be a subjective term then, huh?
Quote:From earth - yeah - heaven - made the same *somehow*.
You do realize the "on earth as it is in heaven" suggests that heaven precedes earth, right. In other words, on earth as it already is in heaven. With that said, your post makes no sense.
Quote:No - what you touch, hear, smell, see and taste are what I'm talking about, in addition to thinking of course.
I can't experience god through my senses. I can think him, but I can also think that I am a glass of orange juice.
Quote:LOL @ 'most'. So what's that a claim to authority? Well that's a nice reason to dodge further questioning and also a concluding ad hominem to add to your collection here. You think a literalist interpretation is the reality of Christian theology throughout the ages? How deluded that appears against all evidence to the contrary. Convenient for you, I must admit. No need to face real logic then is there? I can support my whole argument logically and endeavour to do so. Your regurgitation of worn rhetoric tinged with the usual misplaced vitriol is, on the other hand, dull.
Real logic? As opposed to just logic? If delusion is real logic then we're all screwed.
