New Christendom

[Taz]

the eucharist and communion and the wine and the bread is one of the hugest Mysteries really, that guy needs to shut up though, wine , the nations will sing Gods praises in the final Revelation 22 Heaven , your junk isn't anywhere.

One of the hugest mysteries? lol... not anymore....



"And there shall be no more curse" rev. 22:3

What curse will end if not the sword, a curse in a cup of wine, that Jesus sent through the nations?

You sure as shit don't know..


Until that day....

Bottoms up!






btw. I am quoting from the New English Bible. It is an intelligent and inspired translation. If you can afford it, you should get one.....


The New English Bible with the... book by Anonymous

So sometimes you quote and sometimes you change the meaning of a story. That's extreme cherry-picking. No soup for you!

lol....I have to quote scripture to reveal the meaning of a story in scripture. Is that bad? When you read something like Jesus ascending into the sky there are only two possibilities. Either its complete bullshit or there is a deeper hidden meaning. I found what was hidden and revealed it openly so kill me....

You should be happy. How many times have you wondered about what the hell is wrong with our dear religious friends?

How many times have you wondered what was wrong with you?

Now you know.

I've wondered many times how Noah got roos from... well, you know the story. So what's the real deal behind that? They didn't mean worldwide flood but worldwide in the sense that it wasn't? Did I get that right?

Did you get that right? Um, no. It was a worldwide flood consequent to a meteor impact over the ocean that didn't require much hyperbole in the fairy tale.. There is no mention of kangaroos in the story written to educate children by people in the middle east because there were no kangaroos in the middle east. They didn't even know australia existed even though there are similar stories of a mind boggling deluge in australia, and every other continent, even though the peopler in australia, and every other continent, never heard of noah. It must have happened, a worldwide deluge of torrential rain and consequent floods all over the world, that lasted for weeks. . Mystery solved.

but thanks for so generously providing more evidence that Jesus put the kaibosh on the nations whatever the hell you believe or don't believe.

Have you lost the ability to retain information?

You do have my condolences.

It must have been either bullshit or you provided no such link. Or both. Remind me. I read A LOT OF CRAP here.

Christianity can teeter on post-apostolic doctrine, even such foreign doctrine introduced many centuries later, like ecumenism and rapture theology. Christians have become soft from it, finding nothing but comfort in their faith and very little courage.

They once had a will to conquer, and so they conquered. Not so anymore, so people suffer where anti-Christ drives the faith out, such as the Near East and North Korea.

Christianity can make an impact, I think, when people read the Scriptures for what they say.

As much as I love it, I don't think the Bible can serve the purpose of guiding our revival of Christendom. It's too much given to individual interpretation, there's too much intra-denominational conflict over how it should be interpreted, and much of it just doesn't make any sense (i.e., the Old Testament story about the kids who called an old, holy man, "Bald", and were hence eaten by a bear). Lastly, there's disagreement among Christians worldwide about what role the Bible serves in their Christian lives. I agree with the main thrust of your argument, however.

If the Bible is useless in reviving Christendom, then what kind of "Christendom" are you referring to? Imagine all the splinter groups that would arise without any foundation such as a sacred text or a Messiah who ushered in a new creation.

A church on every corner? No, a church in every house.

Creation divested of its Creator can certainly account for some bizarre stories like the unusually cruel punishment for ridiculing an old man, but God's new relationship, not with Jews now but with Christians, is a story not of a people who conquered a couple of cities and then suffered for the next thousand years but of a people who conquered the world, especially during the Middle Ages.

Unity, not division, is what conquerors ride into battle with.

Not that it matters much but 42 youths were mauled...42. The magic number. One would think that 40 of them would have run away before the third was mauled if it really was an angry bear.

Anyway, they were just children in a schoolyard, mocking the prophet walking by. Baldy this and baldy that. The she bear who mauled them was just their school teacher trying to teach them respect for their elders...Real bears don't give a shit if children are making fun of an old fart.

Them being killed is metaphorical hyperbole like having their assess handed to them.


Maybe God isn't such a meanie after all.

It was two bears, and they encountered more than 42 boys.

They "tore forty-two of the boys."

The bears didn't maul them for making fun of an old man. They mauled them because that's what bears do.

Whether God put those bears near the schoolyard is another matter.

You are saying that 42 children stood there waiting their turns to be mauled? I don't think so. No adults were around supervising all of those children? No one came to help after the first 20 were mauled?

No one ran away? Thats what children do.

A person must learn to use their imagination in a rational way to get at the truth of the matter.

The Protestant Reformation did exactly that -- it splintered Christianity into a thousand different denominations. Thus began the religion's downfall. Every evangelical church out there claims to have a better 'handle' on the Bible than all the rest.

The problems run deeper than that.

The downfall of christianity began in 325 ce when the religion was assimilated and perverted by the roman empire, the worship of a false edible triune mangod was established, and they persecuted and killed everyone who objected.

Even Jews have the whole damn story all wrong according to Jesus, even if they are right that many professed Christian beliefs about a sacrificial edible mangod amount to insanity.
