In a biblical sense…

[Phantasmal]

And that does not apply to homosexuals?

Trump stated he doesn’t ask for forgiveness because he has done nothing wrong. Grace, I was taught is applicable when you ask forgiveness and follow the teachings of Jesus. If you continue to sin, you don’t receive the gift of grace, but there are so many variations of Christianity, you can pretty much shop for one that agrees with your agenda. The Calvinist, don’t agree with the Lutherans or the Catholics and vice versa, and now there are so many non denominations that have their own teachings it hard to keep up. If you don’t like their version of Christianity, you can start your own.

her explanation is the stupidest one I’ve ever read.

Then YOU do the heavy lifting. YOU do the work. Go sacrifice some animals every day if you don't like a free gift of love, mercy and grace where.
In this world, if someone who cared enough about me to offer me a million dollars that THEY worked for, I'd take it and be grateful to them forever.
In this world, if someone who cared enough about me to save my earthly life by sacrificing theirs, I'd be grateful to them forever.
How much more grateful then would I be to One who saved my life for eternity? I'd accept the offer and be eternally grateful.

Calling yourself a "Super Moderator" is hilarious. You didn't think I was a troll when we agreed politically.

Is that person really a mod? One who should move this thread instead of participating in it?

 

[Tranquillus in Exile]

They want no part of his repentance, mercy and forgiveness for themselves and think no one else should either.

Has Trump repented his sins? That's his business, of course, but it would require acknowledging that he's done something wrong. TRUMP? Can you imagine that?

And this is a person you greatly admire - so I understand.

By their actions they have judged themselves.

I will make no comment.

Asked and answered.

You lack understanding.

I know what kind of lizard Trump is!

Why did you let Bill Clinton in the White House Jarod?

But-but-but; that was different.

 

[USFREEDOM911]

He was not an active adulterer, he did it once and apologized. Rump is living with his mistress, in a biblical sense. They want to discriminate against homosexuals because of the Bible.... but ignore what Rump is doing even if what he is doing is against the 10 Commandments.

Untrue; because he had several "liaisons" with different women.

One would think a supposed lawyer would know this.

 

[USFREEDOM911]

Then there's those other easily-forgotten-by-the-Reichtard-evangelists commandments: Coveting your neighbor's wife and/or possessions, bearing false witness (i.e. lying your large orange ass off constantly), forgetting to keep the Sabbath holy, worshiping false idols (money, gold calves, etc.), stealing (i.e. not paying his debts).

Once again, references to Billy Blow Job.

 

[USFREEDOM911]

Take it from me, I would say that "bearing false witness" is by far the most common sin on this forum by reichwingers, and almost always done without a hint of remorse or conscience.

I would say my most common infraction of the commandments, is my God-damned tendency to use the lord's name in vain.

Would that be like Owl lying about me chaining up a dog??

 

[USFREEDOM911]

Oh, look, the JPP atheists are quoting the Bible.

How quaint.

The only consolation is that when they pass on, there will be an accounting of their own comments.

You had my finger hovering over the thank button lol.

Couldn’t agree more that Christians are bad about dividing themselves according to peripheral doctrines. Not sure what this has to do with Trump. Like many ‘fundies’ I didn’t vote for a preacher in Trump; rather, I saw someone who would get the economy back on track. A weak economy has lots of negative downstream effects [joblessness is associated with drug use and alcoholism etc].

Also, I saw Trump as a fighter who would stand up to the left and the media. I saw ‘America first’ as a breath of fresh air. Frankly, I don’t care how many marriages he’s had or whatever. My vote for Trump was purely transactional in that sense.

And so far at least, I’ve gotten pretty much what I bargained for.

 

[Jarod]

But-but-but; that was different.

I don’t care how many woman Rump is married to... I’m just calling out the bangers for their hypocrisy.

 

[Flash]

Why is Jarrod trying to impose religious beliefs on others?

 

[Jarod]

Untrue; because he had several "liaisons" with different women.

One would think a supposed lawyer would know this.

He did?

Islam has more sects then I can even count from Sufi to Salafi
~~

Buddhism has Zen / Tibetan and 2 main branches =

Theravada, the most ancient form of Buddhism, is the dominant school in Southeast Asia (Thailand, Myanmar/Burma, Cambodia, and Laos). ...
Mahayana Buddhism developed out of the Theravada tradition roughly 500 years after the Buddha attained Enlightenment.
~~

major Hinduism modern currents are Vaishnavism (Vishnu), Shaivism (Shiva), Shaktism (Devi) and Smartism (five deities treated as same).

~~
I imagine there are all kinds of witchcraft and pagan religions as well

 

[Jarod]

Let's. I already know what one of them "thinks."

Haha...... still here!
