I did. God is love. I agree. But God is also Holy. You're neglecting the other attributes of God.

No you did not answer my question, Vizio.
Before we go further, I would like you to answer my question about who you love and is your love sappy and namby pamby? Would you travel to the ends of the earth for those you love, Vizio...?

What do you think, that LOVE is not holy? God IS LOVE, according to the scriptures. And Holy means, 'set apart from that which is profane' and of the highest virtues we can imagine or think. Holiness and the doctrine of ET do NOT jive! That doctrine is what makes people inside the churches 'insane' and 'drunk on the wine of her fornication' (if you will). The harlot church (who says she is no widow!) makes the whole world drunk with her wine. What wine do you think the harlot church is serving that is being talked about there in the book of Revelation?

I answered that. God's love is not the same as our love---it's greater than that. Your portrayal of his love for us is that he won't possibly discipline. I take issue with that.

You're the one who thinks he's going to overlook sin..not us. If anyone belongs to a harlot church, it's the ones that deny the sacrificial atonement and eternal punishment.

You still have not answered the question.
Is it that you do not want to? if you don't, just say so.
I'm still waiting for an answer.

Obviously, I love my wife, kids, and others. I'm not sure what you mean by the "ends of the earth".

As I stated....it's not relevant because I'm not God and my love is not comparable to that. You are attempting to twist what scripture says based on non-scriptural ideas.

You will keep saying that and it is NOT true: the difference between us is theextent of that discipline.

Exactly.
Not to mention the whole reason for the discipline in the first place.
And what that reason is rooted in.
