If you had ever actually read the bible, you would see that children pretty much automatically get into heaven anyways. Also, The only Christans that knock on people's doors are Jehovah's Witness. They are annoying to pretty much everyone. BTW, I don't care whether or not I get persecuted by you guys. I'm not gonna go cry about it or insult you guys by dropping to your level. I don't know why God kills millions of people, who said I did? Only one user has answered my question of why can't we just stop trying to convince each other who's right. And his answer was that it mattered because it affected his life because it showed up on Fox news. I don't really care what you guys think of me and my faith. I don't care how you all live your lives, so don't bitch at me because my God isn't fair so that means he doesn't exist. Why cant we all get over the other person's beliefs?
Please don't triple post TripletheCheese. Deleted 1 of the posts. Please use the edit feature or wait until someone else posts.
Sorry about that. It was my fault really. I kinda messed up the quote deletion since you can only have up to three quotes at a time, so first I accidentally took out all quotes, then fixed it before i remembered to delete the first, so i skipped back about 6 pages and tried to fix everything. By the end i guess it made three posts, none of which let me delete. It was really weird.
You're not going to cry about getting persecuted? WELL BUDDY GUESS YOU NEED A TIME MACHINE!!!!!! YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
I advise you to do the same. There is no mention of children automatically going to heaven. On the other hand there is mention of original sin and how we are sinners from birth. Apologist try to weasel their way out of it, but to do that they have to pretend some verses don't matter. We are in a topic titled ''Religion''.
Well sorry for not stating it word-for-word, I guess. Here it is, Luke 18:16-17 But Jesus called the children to him and said,"Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God, will never enter it. Mark 9:42 And if anyone causes one of these little ones to sin, it would be better for him to be thrown into the sea with a large millstone tied around his neck. How are those for you?
I thought we all agreed that the bible wasn't to be taken literally or we would be in a bit of a pickle. * DEUTERONOMY 22:13-21 If it is discovered that a bride is not a virgin, the Bible demands that she be executed by stoning immediately. * DEUTERONOMY 22:22 If a married person has sex with someone else's husband or wife, the Bible commands that both adulterers be stoned to death. * MARK 10:1-12 Divorce is strictly forbidden in both Testaments, as is remarriage of anyone who has been divorced. * LEVITICUS 18:19 The Bible forbids a married couple from having sexual intercourse during a woman's period. If they disobey, both shall be executed. * MARK 12:18-27 If a man dies childless, his widow is ordered by biblical law to have intercourse with each of his brothers in turn until she bears her deceased husband a male heir. * DEUTERONOMY 25:11-12 If a man gets into a fight with another man and his wife seeks to rescue her husband by grabbing the enemy's genitals, her hand shall be cut off and no pity shall be shown her.
Psalm 51:5 Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me. Romans 3:10 As it is written: “There is no one righteous, not even one; Psalm 58:3 Even from birth the wicked go astray; from the womb they are wayward, spreading lies. Genesis 8:21 The LORD smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: “Never again will I curse the ground because of humans, even though[a] every inclination of the human heart is evil from childhood. And never again will I destroy all living creatures, as I have done. I also mean all when I say these. :roll: Take away the passages and people will think they come from the Quran.
We already know that the New Testament differs from the Old Testament. Jesus brought new teachings into the world.
This is my favorite passage from the Bible: “Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.”-Numbers 31:17-18 What a beautiful message...
Interestingly enough, Paul ( I think) later advocates marriage after divorce. Almost as if its a bunch of contradictory bullshit.
“Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. Truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. Anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands and teaches others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven."-Matthew 5:17-19 "It is easier for heaven and earth to disappear than for the least stroke of a pen to drop out of the Law."-Luke 16:17 "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness"-2 Timothy 3:16
Let me guess. One guy in the place he was talking about defied him? Yeah, nothing could ever justify that, regardless of context. EDIT- Ninja'd. I thought it might have been a part of Gods ongoing genocide against the Palestinians.
Yeah but the whole women thing is punishment for them attempting to convince Israelite soldiers to switch sides.
Because every woman tried to convert soldiers, even the babies. And siding against you gives the enemy the right to kill them, even if they were nonviolent.
