Occult.. it's true power source?The Right Wing church has perverted christs :: Re: The Right Wing church has perverted christsRayosun wrote:James wrote:The Christian right has perverted Jesus's message so deeply that what is called Christianity today is almost so divorced from Christs message that it is unrecognizable. Of course there are real Christians and fighters for Jesus but the conservative church establishment has warped the words of Jesus teachings of love, acceptance, poverty and renunication of power, into a bunch of hate filled ideology that reflects perfectly the spirit of fascistic cruelty that Jesus spent his life struggling against.

Outstanding, James ! You sound like the James who wrote the Epistle. I thought he had died.
But if so, he lives on in your words. God love you and yours.
James refused to respond to direct questions, and so are you. What does:
- You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, sould, and mind mean?
- Peter equated Paul's Epitsles with the rest of Scripture, how do you view Peter's comment?
- Who sets the guidelines for the Kingdom of God and where do you find them?
So far all you and James have done is make broad statements that condemns those who don't agree with your theology, now back it up without some cheap grace interpretation of "love your neighbor". Since you like the Epistle of James, would you be kind enought to explain this: James 1:19-27
19 This you know, my beloved brethren. But let everyone be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; 20 for the anger of man does not achieve the righteousness of God. 21 Therefore putting aside all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness, in humility receive the word implanted, which is able to save your souls. 22 But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror; 24 for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was. 25 But one who looks intently at the perfect law, the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer, this man shall be blessed in what he does. 26 If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man's religion is worthless. 27 This is pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father, to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world. NAS
Another question what does "love your neighbor as yourself" mean?
