Is Christianity A Control Freak Religion With Rules ? (hell, women, church)

[tonytonytony]

Christians are not forcing anybody to be a Christian.

Their not ashamed to mention that Christianity has a lot of rules.

Christianity is not an Adolph Hitler leader with forced rules to live out.

Christianity just gives people a choice of heaven or hell.

God just telling people if you want heaven here's what I want from you :

Water baptism---John 3:5.

Sabbath rest today---Hebrews 4.

Correcting people with the bible---James 5:20

Modest attire----1 Peter 3:3

Christian segregation---2 Cor. 6

Repentance to get grace---Romans 6:1

Women church rules to honor---1 Cor. 14:34-35

Tongue rules in the church to honor----ALL of 1 Cor. 14.

Marriage to undivorced people----Romans 7:2-3.

Evangelism to a selective audience---Matthew 7:6

Prayer ministry to a selective audience---John 17:9

Modest living lifestyle------1 Timothy 6

Marriage to widow women age 60 or older----1 Timothy 5:9

Alcohol free parties----1 Peter 4:1-4

Nothing in the bible man defined----2 Peter 1:20-21

Never any seculiar book to teach any of the bible---1 John 2:27

You have be God wise and not self wise----Isaiah 64:6 and Jeremiah 10:23

I want faith from you but I don't want you overconfident----Romans 12:3.

Leave bible grammar alone if you mean business about going to heaven--Revelation 22:18-19

Don't make Jesus inferior to God the Father if you mean business about going to heaven---John 8:24

I want you with a loving heart but unbelievers are not really your friends---1 John 2:15

I want you segregated from the world but somewhat friendly with them to make out in the
world with the necessities of life to do----Luke 16:9

While later time took away rules ; rules never ended cause of Christianity---John 1:17
and Matthew 5:17-18.

If Christianity is just about grace and love to have why would John mention 1 John 2:15 ?

If Christianity is just about what's in your heart why would Peter mention 1 Peter 3:3 ?

If Christianity is about being friends with everybody why would Matthew mention Matthew 7:6 ?

If Christianity is just about common sense we know we have why would John mention
John 5:39 ?

If Christianity is just about eating, drinking and being merry why would Matthew mention
Matthew 10:34-37 ?

If we got it all together why would Isaiah mention Isaiah 64:6 ?

If we're not rookies at living a fulfilled life why would Jeremiah mention Jeremiah 10:23 ?

If a voice in the head has all the guidance we need why would Paul mention Romans 10:17 ?

If Christianity is about being well liked all you can why would Luke mention Luke 6:26 ?

If Christianity achieves a problem free life as much as possible why would James mention
James 3:2 ?

Obviously unbelievers will always believe that rules came by man and not by God in
10% of the bible----2 Timothy 3:16

That's why unity is so important today----Psalms 133:1 and Amos 3:3.

Unity has to be more then 2 good people coming together---John 8:32 and John 17:21.

Biblical unity enough is the entire heart of the matter with 2 or more people coming
together today----Matthew 5:6 .

Believers are more then love preachers----1 John 2:15 and Amos 3:3 and 2 Cor. 6
and Psalms 133:1 and John 17:21 and Matthew 7:6 and Galations 1:8-9

Believers have more then a loving heart---1 John 2:15 and John 8:31 and Amos 3:3
and John 8:31 and Matthew 7:6 and John 8:31 and 2 Cor. 6 and John 8:31 and
Titus 3:10 and Matthew 4:4 and Ephesians 4:14 and Luke 4:4 and 2 Thess. 3:10 and
2 Timothy 3:16.

That's why unbelievers don't understand them-----Matthew 10:34-37 and Luke 6:26
and 2 Cor. 4:3.

Believers are not the average good Tom----John 8:32 and 1 Peter 3:3 and 1 Timothy 6.

That's why it's strife without Christian segregation---John 8:32 and 2 Cor. 6


Always time for 100% bible believers to know each other in the bible enough---1 Thess. 5:12
and Matthew 5:6.

You'd have a hard time convincing me it aint. I like what Jesus taught better, he said learn of me for yoke is Easy and my burden Light

[nateswift]

"No, it isn't......here's my list of rules...." That doesn't quite mesh, Tony. "New Commandment" is singular.

[Royalite]

No, i don't think it is as it's a personal choice to be Christian or not. I think people can be controlling.

[Azrael17]

It's all about submitting to God with a willful intent to improve ourselves for the better.

We must do good works to be saved.
The ultimate good work is choosing to be loving, for from it arises all other good works, and when choosing it we eventually become changed, sanctified by God who is good and though we can't be perfect since we love God and all others we will seek to avoid harming them.

Sins are actions which harm ourselves or others and actions that God dislikes.
