@rickw1100 How is John Macarthur a "false prophet?" He preaches the truth that which is the amazing gospel of Jesus Christ the Lord. That is what God commands of us who have put their faith in Jesus and have been regenerated by the Holy spirit. He does that...so once again...how is he a false prophet? I think a real example of a Matt. 7:15 is Joel Osteen.
You are free to dream about what could happen after death, but please don't act like you KNOW, because nobody does. I just choose to be logical, and I refuse to believe any of the wishful thinking dictated by churches or charlatans (is there a difference?).
I'm quite content with ONE good life. Why can't you be? What is so terrible about enjoying one life, then gracefully leaving this world for others to continue living? Refusing the fact that life must end is rather selfish and thankless.
@multitalentino well the thing is what is the real purpose of living one good life for about 80 years or so and then dying and nothing happening to you? I mean me personally I would not mind one bit to die from this world, that is truthfully filled with sickness, pain, hard times and sufferings, and then go on to a place where I can have life eternal with no sickness, pain, hard times or sufferings. That actually sounds pretty good to me. I would like that way more than just vanishing.
@multitalentino yeah youre right with the exception of the curse part...more of like a blessing especially considering the other place you'll go if you don't believe in Jesus. yeah it's gonna be sick nasty when I'm there to spend eternity with my God and other people who die to their sins and become alive in Christ. The worst thing in the world is to go through this stupid life for 80 odd years and die and then your done. That would ruh-tarded my friend. I'd hate go out like that.

Why do I treat woman with honor and respect like they truly deserve? It's because I'm hateful?...
@thursdaysrecords No! It is because I have the love of Christ that is in me that causes me to love. Don't tell me what I am or am not. I know who I am in Christ so don't pass judgement against me. God expressed his love to you. Yes I said "YOU". He expressed his love to you through Jesus Christ and his death on the cross. you can experience this love if you put your faith in him. Do it. I dare you. confess you are a sinner and believe that Jesus was raised from the dead and see what happens..

John M we are all members of the body of Christ. Acts 17-28, In Him we live and move and have our being; all things a held together by Him. Sounds a bit like the universe doesn't it? No beginning no end always. Hard for humans to grasp endless.
We can all be with God, all everyone, Christian or not.
I only ask that on that road we do not preach hate and fear, that only leads to bad. Look at Christian bloody history, based on the Bible and hate and also wrong.
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.
1 You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the SAME THINGS.
2 Now we know that God's judgment against those who do such things is based on truth.
3 So when you, a mere man, pass judgment on them and yet do the SAME THINGS, do you think you will escape God's judgment?
Even when we believe the Scriptures are "infallible" or "without error," it's terribly dangerous to think that our understanding of every biblical text is also without error. We are human. We are fallible. And we can misunderstand and misinterpret these ancient words -- with tragic results.

Some verses are specific to the culture and time they were written.

John M something happened a long time ago, as you say, but its was after Jesus died. Religion came along and crazies like you perverted the words of Jesus. Using a Book to spin your tales instead of preaching the words and work of Jesus. John M , what you do is preach hate. You are a bigot and will be going to hell, according to the book, unless you change your ways. I pray that you see the light, and tell the story of Jesus...Love, Peace, Charity, without prejudices or condemnations.
"..crazies like you perverted the words of Jesus." Seems you are doing exactly what you accuse Jm of doing.
"..Using a Book to spin your tales instead of preaching the words and work of Jesus.".Where do you get your version of Jesus'words?
" You are a bigot and will be going to hell, according to the book, unless you change your ways" ?? I thought you did not believe in "the book" because it was so suspect?
Seems its only suspect when it disagrees with your agenda.
@kwil46 Thanks for your comments and twisting my words again. I never said I did not believe in the Bible, I did say it is suspect, and I told you why. Heres the deal with teaching hate and fear as JM does. Look at Christian history, bloody, horrible, toucher, burning and worse, and all in the name of?? and backed by a book-yes??. Why? Maybe because of all the fear and hate preaching leads some to think its ok to hate and worse. ya think? JM needs to preach friendship evangelism not fear.
@kwil46 Oh ya - You're belief in the gospel is not my belief, yet you propose to dictate my life by you're belief? How do you propose to do that and then claim superiority? Doctrine tells you not to pass judgment , How can you claim to be yourself a child of God if you pronounce your belief on others? Tell you what, if God has proclaimed homosexuality to be a sin, then let him deal with it. I propose that he didn't, and made us as we are.
I claim no superiority sir.I simply quote the words of Jesus and YOU get uncomfortable. Where does doctrine say to not pass judgement? Ever hear of the book of Judges? Also, "judge not lest you be judged" is not saying we cant judge.Rather, it is saying we are to judge by equal standards and not be hypocrites.Thus, I apply the words of Jesus to myself and all Christians.I dont pick and choose.And the bible is crystal: homosexuality is a sin, as is adultery,certain divorces etc...
@kwil46 As I said before we disagree, and the Bible is not crystal clear. Homosexuality is not mentioned in the Commandments nor did Jesus say one word about it. He DID 100% condemn the leaders of organized religion & their fanatican followers!
7 verses in the entire Bible mention gay sex; references to male prostitution, concubines & wild hedonism, all common in the ancient world. Check it out its true.
Being gay is NOT a sin, nor do gay sex acts have ANY religious context of themselves.
@kwil46 ya know you really need to read the Bible for content, and look into your own heard and seek Christ's guidance. Don't use the BIble for hate not what Jesus intended. Read Micah 6-8
8He has showed you, O man, what is good.And what does the Lord require of you?To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. "
Problem with you is, that YOu substitute your agenda into "what is good" and disregard the clear word of God.Also, you wish to not "act justly" in the way you pick and choose what you like in Gods word and the teachings of Jesus.This is a prime example of how you quite the bible ONLY when you think it suits your cause.
@kwil46 You have mentioned my agenda several times - what is my agenda? Do you have an agenda?
You keep telling me I pick and choose, do you not do the same thing?
I quote the Bible as do you, you just don't like when I do it and you tell me I am incorrect. I mention Acts 17-28- In Him we live and move and have our being, and you say I wrong. Well kwll46 everyone on the planet is with Jesus like it or not. Even though we disagree big time there is always a plate set at out table for you.
You are wrong in that you fail to follow the surrounding texts of the verses you pluck. This establishes your agenda as following only what agrees with your own sensibilities.Thats why you like certain teachings of Jesus and throw out others, calling them suspect or fallible. Last time I checked, God did not need mans opinions.
@kwil46 Again you talk about my agenda, what do you think my agenda is?
Then you say I pluck verses, what does John M do but pluck verses. You talk about the surrounding verses yes understand them, looks to me like you do not.
I agree God does not need mans opinions, but in God everyone on the planet lives and moves. So we are all with you - don't think you like to hear that kwll46.
You still have a place at my table, love thy brother as thy self.
I have stated it many times so please stop playing ignorant.You seek to supplant your own 'wisdom' for Gods in the way you approve of many of Jesus' words and deny others.Now ,what about Christs teaching on the wide and narrow roads.Do you accept this teaching or not?
@kwil46 Now you call me ignorant, whats next? Over the centuries people who misunderstood or misinterpreted the Bible have done terrible things. The Bible has been misused to defend bloody crusades & tragic inquisitions; to support slavery, apartheid, and segregation; to persecute Jews and other non-Christian people of faith; to support Hitler's Third Reich and the Holocaust; to oppose medical science; to condemn interracial marriage; to execute women as witches; & to support the Ku Klux Klan.
So you believe that few will enter into heaven and many are on the wide road to destruction.
"I do not believe in how some people and Churches twist his words and teach fear and hate. Not what Jesus intended."??
This is exactly what you are doing,
Again:your agenda is to shape the bible & Jesus' words to suit your lifestyle and to spread this false doctrine.I hope this is clear enough as this is about the 5th time I have answered you.
@kwil46 Now I know I have said this to you before, it it you that mis-interprate the Bible big time. You have scales on your eyes, and we, actually all, exits beyond teh dogmas and theologies of this world. I have also said to you, Christianity has changed over the years as we learn-oh I should same some learn you it seems do not-more about the Bible. Did you know, Jesus says nothing about same-sex behavior. Paul said Test all things and hold fast to that which is good
@kwil46 Misinterpreting the Bible? Interesting, you did say this right? "So you believe that few will enter into heaven and many are on the wide road to destruction"?
@kwil46 I probably use poor choice of words, I was actually agreeing with you. I was referring that post to chicraig when he said you misinterpret scripture; so I posted the verse to support your statement for all other viewers & him.
@kwil46 Over the centuries people who misunderstood or misinterpreted the Bible have done terrible things. The Bible has been misused to defend bloody crusades and tragic inquisitions; to support slavery, apartheid, and segregation; to persecute Jews and other non-Christian people of faith; to support Hitler's Third Reich and the Holocaust; to oppose medical science; to condemn interracial marriage; to execute women as witches; and to support the Ku Klux Klan. Don't preach fear and hate.
@kwil46 Jesus said by their fruit we will know who His followers are and by the love we have for one another all men will know that we are His. When I experience hatred and judgement and that sort of thing coming off of people I simply have to question whether they have truly experienced the love of God for themselves.
The religious folks of Jesus day, the Pharisees, are the ones who put Him to death. We have Pharisees today, always have. They who preach fear and hate fit that category.
13“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it"
As for friendship evangelism, did our lord approve of the sins of the prostitutes, homosexuals, tax collectors, pharisees with which he associated? NO. You are afrid to follow His lead.You wish to be friends with the world and NEVER witness to them about the need for repentance and to follow Christ.Your ilk is of whom God will say, depart from me, I never knew you"
@kwil46 I think it is U who are afraid to give up fear and hate. Look who Jesus hang around with, sinners. Do you use the Bible to preach fear and Hate? Look a Christian history, bloody, bone breaking, burning,worse. R U trying to bring that back today? Let me remind you Jesus died for everyone on earth not some!! Don't use the Bible for hate not want Jesus intended. Read Micah 6-8. Really read it for content, and look into your own heart and seek Christ's guidance.
It strikes me as odd, that two newly created humans are immediately familiar and able to live in the most advanced way. You say they instantly understood how to control the power of fire. What about the wheel. Did they invent that on their first day, too? How about making tools and engaging in agriculture? All this they knew instinctively?
Those Bible Books were written decades after all of these men were dead. There really is not one person who has actually met Jesus and then wrote about Him. That is very fishy, to say the least. More has been written about much lesser figures, and there is no reason for it. I believe the whole account was fabricated after the fact. Either none of it really happened, or the story was tailored to fit the teller. I'm not buying it, and I'm not alone. Blind faith in the Bible is ignorance.
Your god has not had a single success yet. He made perfect angels. He made perfect humans on a perfect earth. He had a perfect son. And all but a fraction of them end up tortured and dead. He ends up with a handful of buddies to lay around paradise with for ever while ALL the rest are destroyed or tortured for eternity. Has there ever been a bigger loser? Ever? And you think he's gonna show up and take you all to Disney World? Good luck with that.
Why can't religious zealots accept the UNDISPUTED FACT that NOBODY (including everyone here at YouTube, all people who are living today, including YOU and I) KNOWS the unknowable. NOBODY!
I have yet to see ONE "devout Christian" admit that the above is a FACT. It must be in your play book NEVER to admit that.
You can believe what you want, everyone has the right to believe, but nobody KNOWS. Nobody KNOWS what happens after we die. We can speculate, hope and believe, but WE DO NOT KNOW!
"...NOBODY.....KNOWS the unknowable." You speak that as a fact that you KNOW! Which contradicts your premise. You believe you cant know, and I believe i can know.But I dont claim to know as you do.
Has anyone ever wondered why so many of these extremist evangelist preachers are milling around in the USA? Perhaps it's because if they tried this sort of bullshittery in Europe, they'd get their ass kicked clear across the continent.
One famous American evangelist, Ernest Angely, got his just dessets after settig up a tent in Germany and collecting money from the local faithful. He was carted off to jail for fraud, and given a good whoopin' before his release. Only Amricans fall for BS!
If there is a Heaven, why are we here on this "horrible" Earth? The concept of Heaven minimizes the value of life; it even minimizes the ultimate sin of murder. If Heaven is so much better than Earth, why bother with life on Earth?
The concept of Heaven makes God a mean spirited villain who enjoys tricking humans, setting traps wherever possible. Adam and Eve were the first victims of God's cruel games, where losers pay the price of eternal suffering; winners advance to heavenly bliss. BS!
I don't mean to be harsh, but don't forget that the Bible also teaches the other end, namely hell... This life is the only life we get and our decisions (do we run after God or ourselves?) will determine our eternal destiny, so life is VERY valuable. That's also why murder is such a horrible sin.
Here's how you can determine if someone is "out of touch with reality": They keep talking and talking and talking even after you have told them repeatedly that you are not interested in their "advice". Unsolicited advice always comes from people who have not much else to do in to in their own affairs. They need strangers to fulfill their desperate need to be "heard". Sadly, the rest of us are suffering form these freaks' "condition".
Your god has not had a single success yet. He made perfect angels. He made perfect humans on a perfect earth. He had a perfect son. And ALL of them end up tortured and dead. He ends up with a few thousand buddies to lay around paradise with for ever while ALL the rest are destroyed or tortured for eternity. Has there ever been a bigger loser? Ever? And you are banking that THIS time, this one last time, God is gonna hit the ball out of the park for you? Good luck with that!
After the election we will know whom GOD PICKED, according to you. If that is Obama, then God picked Obama. Right?
After that happens, you and your fellow religious zealots will have a new story to blab about, and you still won't accept Obama as the best representative of the American People.
You can't accept any outcome of any game, unless YOU WIN.
2000 was RIGGED, 2004 was RIGGED, and look where it got us! We are all shafted by an incompetent puppet president! You want more of THAT?
The determination of next President of the United States of America is not in the hands of the voters, not the states, not the electors when they meet to cast their votes but in the hands of God the Father who ordained all things to the praise of the glory of His Name.
thursdaysrecords, How do you know that God has picked Obama/Biden? If you believe in God and have a Bible read Psalm 24:1 and there's your answer, whether or not you ever accept it. Whomever He chooses, He 'knows' why He's chosen them and that's all that matters to me. He loved each one of us enough to send His only begotten Son to save mankind, but we fight Him each and every day and all for what? John 3:16 is one of the most powerful verses ever presented to us, but we still don't get it.
After the election we will know whom GOD PICKED, according to you. If that is Obama, then God picked Obama. Right?

God does set up Kings and Kindoms. "And he changeth the times and the seasons; He removeth
kings, and setteth up kings; he giveth wisdom unto the wise,
and knowledge to them that know understanding. He revealeth the deep and secret things; he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him." ( Dn 2: 20-22 )
jgrig2, Amen to that. 'The Earth is the LORD'S, and the fullness thereof, the World and they that dwell therein', Psalm 24:1. We can fool ourselves into believing anything else that we want, but God's Word is the truth.

You are a bigot and will be going to hell, according to the book, unless you change your ways. I pray that you see the light, and tell the story of Jesus...Love, Peace, Charity, without prejudices or condemnations.

"..crazies like you perverted the words of Jesus." Seems you are doing exactly what you accuse Jm of doing.
"..Using a Book to spin your tales instead of preaching the words and work of Jesus.".Where do you get your version of Jesus'words?
" You are a bigot and will be going to hell, according to the book, unless you change your ways" ?? I thought you did not believe in "the book" because it was so suspect?
Seems its only suspect when it disagrees with your agenda.

@kwil46 Thanks for your comments and twisting my words again. I never said I did not believe in the Bible, I did say it is suspect, and I told you why. Heres the deal with teaching hate and fear as JM does. Look at Christian history, bloody, horrible, toucher, burning and worse, and all in the name of?? and backed by a book-yes??. Why? Maybe because of all the fear and hate preaching leads some to think its ok to hate and worse. ya think? JM needs to preach friendship evangelism not fear.

@kwil46 Oh ya - You're belief in the gospel is not my belief, yet you propose to dictate my life by you're belief? How do you propose to do that and then claim superiority? Doctrine tells you not to pass judgment , How can you claim to be yourself a child of God if you pronounce your belief on others? Tell you what, if God has proclaimed homosexuality to be a sin, then let him deal with it. I propose that he didn't, and made us as we are.
chicraig6421 1 year ago
@chicraig6421
I claim no superiority sir.I simply quote the words of Jesus and YOU get uncomfortable. Where does doctrine say to not pass judgement? Ever hear of the book of Judges? Also, "judge not lest you be judged" is not saying we cant judge.Rather, it is saying we are to judge by equal standards and not be hypocrites.Thus, I apply the words of Jesus to myself and all Christians.I dont pick and choose.And the bible is crystal: homosexuality is a sin, as is adultery,certain divorces etc...
kwil46 1 year ago
@kwil46 As I said before we disagree, and the Bible is not crystal clear. Homosexuality is not mentioned in the Commandments nor did Jesus say one word about it. He DID 100% condemn the leaders of organized religion & their fanatican followers!
7 verses in the entire Bible mention gay sex; references to male prostitution, concubines & wild hedonism, all common in the ancient world. Check it out its true.
Being gay is NOT a sin, nor do gay sex acts have ANY religious context of themselves.

@kwil46 ya know you really need to read the Bible for content, and look into your own heard and seek Christ's guidance. Don't use the BIble for hate not what Jesus intended. Read Micah 6-8

Problem with you is, that YOu substitute your agenda into "what is good" and disregard the clear word of God.Also, you wish to not "act justly" in the way you pick and choose what you like in Gods word and the teachings of Jesus.This is a prime example of how you quite the bible ONLY when you think it suits your cause.

You are wrong in that you fail to follow the surrounding texts of the verses you pluck.

I have also said to you, Christianity has changed over the years as we learn-oh I should same some learn you it seems do not-more about the Bible. Did you know, Jesus says nothing about same-sex behavior. Paul said Test all things and hold fast to that which is good

@kwil46 Misinterpreting the Bible? Interesting, you did say this right? "So you believe that few will enter into heaven and many are on the wide road to destruction"?
Seem the same as this verse here;
—Matthew 7:13-14
"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it."
But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

@kwil46 Jesus said by their fruit we will know who His followers are and by the love we have for one another all men will know that we are His. When I experience hatred and judgement and that sort of thing coming off of people I simply have to question whether they have truly experienced the love of God for themselves.
The religious folks of Jesus day, the Pharisees, are the ones who put Him to death. We have Pharisees today, always have. They who preach fear and hate fit that category.

It strikes me as odd, that two newly created humans are immediately familiar and able to live in the most advanced way. You say they instantly understood how to control the power of fire. What about the wheel. Did they invent that on their first day, too? How about making tools and engaging in agriculture? All this they knew instinctively?

Those Bible Books were written decades after all of these men were dead. There really is not one person who has actually met Jesus and then wrote about Him. That is very fishy, to say the least. More has been written about much lesser figures, and there is no reason for it. I believe the whole account was fabricated after the fact. Either none of it really happened, or the story was tailored to fit the teller. I'm not buying it, and I'm not alone. Blind faith in the Bible is ignorance.

Why can't religious zealots accept the UNDISPUTED FACT that NOBODY (including everyone here at YouTube, all people who are living today, including YOU and I) KNOWS the unknowable. NOBODY!
I have yet to see ONE "devout Christian" admit that the above is a FACT. It must be in your play book NEVER to admit that.
You can believe what you want, everyone has the right to believe, but nobody KNOWS. Nobody KNOWS what happens after we die. We can speculate, hope and believe, but WE DO NOT KNOW!

Has anyone ever wondered why so many of these extremist evangelist preachers are milling around in the USA? Perhaps it's because if they tried this sort of bullshittery in Europe, they'd get their ass kicked clear across the continent.
One famous American evangelist, Ernest Angely, got his just dessets after settig up a tent in Germany and collecting money from the local faithful. He was carted off to jail for fraud, and given a good whoopin' before his release. Only Amricans fall for BS!

If there is a Heaven, why are we here on this "horrible" Earth? The concept of Heaven minimizes the value of life; it even minimizes the ultimate sin of murder. If Heaven is so much better than Earth, why bother with life on Earth?
The concept of Heaven makes God a mean spirited villain who enjoys tricking humans, setting traps wherever possible. Adam and Eve were the first victims of God's cruel games, where losers pay the price of eternal suffering; winners advance to heavenly bliss. BS!

I don't mean to be harsh, but don't forget that the Bible also teaches the other end, namely hell... This life is the only life we get and our decisions (do we run after God or ourselves?) will determine our eternal destiny, so life is VERY valuable. That's also why murder is such a horrible sin.

Here's how you can determine if someone is "out of touch with reality": They keep talking and talking and talking even after you have told them repeatedly that you are not interested in their "advice". Unsolicited advice always comes from people who have not much else to do in to in their own affairs. They need strangers to fulfill their desperate need to be "heard". Sadly, the rest of us are suffering form these freaks' "condition".
