Zone1 If God were real, you wouldn’t need a book

[ding]

You learned that from a book, right?

God is real.

I just did religion.

God provides reality to all places and all things at all times.

 

[Crepitus]

Everything is choice.

You sure about that?

Doesn't look like a choice from here.

You can blame the reformation for that. I'm not an evangelical. So let me clear this up for you. You don't have to believe Jesus is Lord. You will be judged. Are you ok with being judged? Are you ok with being accountable for your actions?

My actions are mine. They are not structured to fit some fable.

Great. Then you won't mind being judged by YOUR actions. You won't mind being held accountable for what you have done.

So what's your problem? Go live your life.

I am the only judge of my actions.

I am the only judge of my actions.

What happens next, after you have judged yourself?

 

[ding]

I am the only judge of my actions.

 

[ding]

I am the only judge of my actions.

You sure about that? I've been judging your "actions" since you got here. What are you going to do about it?

So, no, you most decidedly are not the only judge of your actions.

This pretty much supports the 'laws of separation' between Israel and the Gentiles mentioned.

Not so.

Paul welcomed the Gentiles in to the "Commonwealth of Isreal", & Paul stated:

Eph 2:14 For he is our peace, who made both one, and broke down the middle wall of partition,

 

[TruthSeeker112125]

The resurrected Gentiles will likely need the 'schoolmaster' of the old covenant to prepare them for the new, as happened to Israel.

"If",...... You truly had done any Serious study of The Scriptures, then You would know that the only difference between the "Old", & "New" Covenant is "Location".

The "Old" was written in Stone,..... The "New" will be permanently written in the "Hearts/MInds" of those who Truly Believe in The Messiah & "His Way".

Isa 45:22 “Look to me, and be saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.
Isa 45:23 I have sworn by myself. The word has gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and will not be revoked, that to me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall take an oath.
Isa 45:24 They will say of me, ‘There is righteousness and strength only in Yahweh.’” Even to him shall men come; and all those who raged against him shall be disappointed.
Isa 45:25 All the offspring of Israel will be justified in Yahweh, and will rejoice!
Rom 14:11 For it is written, “‘As I live,’ says the Lord, ‘to me every knee will bow. Every tongue will confess to God.’”
Rom 14:12 So then each one of us will give account of himself to God.

What happens next, after you have judged yourself?

"Repenting of Sin".

 

[Meriweather]

"Repenting of Sin".

Consequences you assign yourself?

 

[BreezeWood]

"Repenting of Sin".

to late at judgement ... the gate is shut.

sinning no more, judgment for them is a formality with certainty.

In the old Testament God was an asshole. The new ignored that and concentrated on Jesus the man of loving God.

 

[Crepitus]

Either I like myself and sleep well or not, just like everyone else with more than half a brain.

 

[Crepitus]

It's true. I do not need a mythical sky daddy to tell me what is right and what is wrong.

They WERE/ARE the SAME God.
It was the One who was born Jesus who spoke to Moses out of the burning bush.
It was the One, Jesus, who guided and protected Israel in the wilderness

 

[ding]

In the old Testament God was an asshole.

Why? Because Israelites crafted narrative of historical events to teach lessons about the covenant, obedience, justice and their relationship with God? Leave it to the Jews to let God take the fall.

But since you don't believe God exists, what's your excuse for blaming God instead of the Jews?

The new ignored that and concentrated on Jesus the man of loving God.

Gnostic Christians couldn't reconcile that either. Do you see many of them around today?
