Proverbs 1:7 and 9:10

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. But fools despise wisdom and instruction.

The differences between Christianity and Islam could not be more pronounced.

Jesus teaches to love our enemies, even unto our own death if they kill us. You will receive eternal rewards for your love and compassion.

Islam teaches to murder and destroy your enemies, and you will receive rewards for murdering them.

The eternal result of Islam is becoming a SLAVE to Allah for all eternity.

The end result of Christianity is becoming a SON of GOD and an eternal, incorruptible GOD for all eternity.

You didn't really have a point, just the typical angry, bitter atheistic rant.

You hate those who just want to show you love and forgiveness.

Hate is the only emotion you ever display here.

no I hate those who acted stupid and bigoted and call their bigotry as "love and forgiveness"

you want to force your views on others. all while demeaning them and claiming their religion and/or sexual orientation is inferior and somehow that is "love and forgiveness."

You just perfectly illustrated my point. Hate, hate, hate

No one is forcing ANYTHING on you. You are not required to read my posts.

Whether you like it or not, we DO have freedom of speech in this country. You do not have the option of silencing everyone in the world you disagree with.

We are just as free to give our opinions as you are free to spew your hatred and anger.

I still love you, even if you hate me for my love of Christ and His Word.

I've been on this site for around a decade. This is the dumbest thread I've ever come across. Even more than the Coke Super Bowl commercial thread. It was a good OP though.

You are misdirecting your hatred again. I did not comment on any of those things.

I could not be prouder of being a follower of Jesus Christ, and I could not be prouder when I am insulted or hated for loving and following Him.

John 15:18
“If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

Matthew 5:11
Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.



I have nothing but love for you my friend.

You would have to be a lot more specific.

The world is going to have its polices, and they are going to go against the Word of God in every way possible.

This will continue until He returns.

And there will be many wolves in sheeps clothing, proclaiming to be Christians, but are liars, deceivers and murders.

Just as He told us.

No, I do not believe any of those things should be FORCED on anyone. We follow Christ and His Word of our own free will, not through force of government.

And the bible does not teach man to force any of those things on ANYONE.

But it does teach plainly that many of those sexual perversions, abortions and other things are abominations in the sight of God.

But we have the free will to follow God, or spit in the face of His laws. We can either choose to come out of the world and follow Him, or we can live in the world and follow its ways instead.

One choice leads to eternal life, the other to eternal destruction.

Choose well.

Its your choice to make.

RE: We are living in a golden age
2 Thessalonians 2

3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, 4 who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.


What is the falling away? The final apostate age of the Church (NOW) Rev 3:14-22


For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He (Holy Spirit) is taken out of the way. 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. 9 The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, 10 and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, 12 that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.


Much of the church has fallen away from the the NT and are following false doctrines such as the prosperity preachers like Joel Olsteen and Pope Francis. Francis is out telling people that Christians, Muslims and Buddhists all worship the same God, and can fellowship together as one. That is BLASPHEMY against the Word of God. At the same time, many Jews have returned to the Holy Land and are a nation again (1948) following the holocaust of WW2, but still rejecting Jesus Christ their Messiah. And they are surrounded by enemies who wish to totally destroy them on all sides and are the centerpiece of all ME conflict.

The table is now set.

yeah sorry miko. but holy hell having two posters flip out over BCE in the first page was a pretty telling sign of where this thread was heading.

Yeah, my post just said "It is BC and AD." That is hardly flipping out. Maybe in your uneducated mind which stereotypes Christians.
