his teachings have already affected you... akragon
i am not surprised to see this coming, to be honest. sad to see it happen however.
i am done here; you have seen the trial and proof.
it is up for you decide, and the question is simple: will you follow your christ, or THE CHRIST.
noo my friend you are sorely mistaken...
No one teaches me, i teach myself... What he says in his posts have more truth then any preacher or minister i've heard from... How do i know this? Because i've studied Jesus' teachings for many years...
I've challenged the beliefs of priests, and pastors... they have no answers.
IAM knows love from what i've seen in his threads, and you'll find that i've read them all... I don't agree with everything he says, but definatly more so then any christian i've met.
Again, you should check yourself.... Read his threads before you judge this man.... Or better yet, don't judge him at all.... let his words happen if they are meant to.

I will stick to calling you "delusional " for the time being, considering you said I could call you what I will.
I also am not Christian, but i garentee i know more about Jesus then most of the ones who proclaim that title... Considering prostitution is litterally one of the worlds oldest professions... whos to say its not part of "Gods plan"? If one choses to partake in such activities then that is their issue not mine... Also considering it says in the bible that stoning people to death, and rape and torture has technically been part of Gods plan in the past... and even today. And mary was supposedly a prostitute... I would question any christian who claims to know "Gods plan" anyways...

News flash...you don't know more about Jesus than most Christians....I can guarantee myself that.
and because mary magdelane was a prostitute..does not mean she stayed a prostitute..what don't you get about that.
Your both delusional on what jesus and actions meant..and as far as Gods plans go.. I'll leave that up to God..

Again i disagree, and i've proven that fact many times on these forums... Believe whatever you like, but sadly christians do not know Jesus... They believe what others tell them to believe for the most part... Either way make your judgements against both of us... it does not affect me in the least.
Well at least you agree that she WAS a prostitute.
D. By loving her when all others regarded her as worthless thereby giving her the self worth and confidence she needed to seek to do something more fulfilling with her life.

You really think much to highly of yourself.. if you actually think you have proven any fact on this forum..
Many Christians know Jesus.. and those that are lead by the Holy Spirit can see clearly what are false teachings..
Do Christians fall short , and sin..yes.. but that doesn't mean they don't know the difference between a false teaching.. and the words of Christ.
Continue to deceive yourself into thinking you have proven anything of merit ...for those that believe what others would tell them..are only fools as you say.. and fools believe fools..

yes..by loving her..and forgiving her....NOT by saying prostitution was part of gods plan...or by having any sexual relations with her.
I don't consider myself a christian because of the churches and what they bring into the world... And unlike christians, i don't follow Jesus... He walks with me every day...
Well there you go adding your own mind to scripture when I summed it up precisely. No where does it say he did not sleep with her. NO WHERE!

Trust me..there is as much evil and sin out of churches as there is in them. They are not responsible for all the garbage in this world.
You may think Jesus walks beside you.. but He actually could be carrying with his grace..until you wake up enough to follow him.

You come into my threads to vehemently disagree with me. When you are exhausted of the ridicule you keep coming back saying "I don't want to hear any more!".

In your mind you may think you have ridiculed me.. when all you've done is proven me correct in my judgement of your teachings and hypocrisies.
I will leave you to your false teachings and the twistings of Christs words..and keep you in my prayers.
Your ego is blinding you to the truth..

Ok fair enough. What have I taught that you find as false? You have the podium. What have I said pertaining to Christ that you feel is a false teaching?
"Beware of practicing your piety before men in order to be seen by them; for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven. Thus, when you give alms, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your alms may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you. And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you." (Matthew 6:1-6 RSV)
“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart” (Mt 5:27-28).

I've already pointed those out.. but once more.. the statement about Christ never judging...yes he judged the religious hypocrites.

Also what i found most troubling and directly opposed to what Christ teaches.. is the insinuations that he did not judge lust..when in fact he said these words about lust..
“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart” (Mt 5:27-28).
So..from Christs own lips we see that he indeed think adultery was a sin..not only in the flesh.. but in the heart and mind as well.

I will not try to convince you that you do not speak for Christ....but it is apparent by the way you have tried to twist the meanings of his words.
You tell people not to judge.. but yet if anyone disagrees with you.. its ok to for you to judge them .
