4If anyone says, “I know Him,” but does not keep His commandments, he is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5But if anyone keeps His word, the love of God has been truly perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him: 6Whoever claims to abide in Him must walk as Jesus walked.…
Psalm 119
“Oh how I love your law!”
1 Thessalonians 5
27 I put you under oath before the Lord to have this letter read to all the brothers.
“And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise” (Deut. 6:6–7).
so where in these regurgitated verses is the word BIBLE? Remember it is spelled B-I-B-L-E....NOT law, NOT letter, not WORDS, not COMMANDMENTS, but BIBLE.
Here I though the word was JESUS.....as in..
IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE WORD....
John 1 King James Version (KJV)
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
unless of course you seriously think that WORD is the same as
BIBLE???
You will not stop your beliefs being held up against the scriptures and the light of Jesus Christ by putting those who ask you the questions you cannot support with the bible you claim has got all the answers on the ignore list.You would have more respect by manning up and addressing those who you disagree with. No one has been disrepectful to you, so don't even go there.
So many other people, as well as Satan, get blamed for the "slips" of fundamentalists. How about fundamentalists own up to their own responsibility in the matter?
Not only must a Christian not do any of the sins on the preacher’s sin list, they must also avoid any behavior that would or could cause an infantile, helpless church member to stumble, a euphemism for falling into sin.
Every behavior has the potential of being a sin. Wouldn’t the better approach be to expect church members to be responsible for their own behavior? If Deacon Bob gets a boner during Sister Mary’s special because she is wearing a top that accentuates her bosom, is this Sister Mary’s problem? Perhaps Deacon Bob needs to grow up and own his sexuality. The same goes for any behavior that would fall under the causing-a-brother-to-stumble category.
Sin is not the problem, irresponsibility is. While my sin list (things I call out as sin in others) now fits on a post-it note, I do accept responsibility for any behavior that might harm or negatively affect others. If Polly and I get in a fight and I say something that is hurtful, whose fault is it? Should she be blamed for provoking me to anger? Dammit, she knows I have a temper!

The Bible is a collection of God’s laws, words and commandments.
I completely agree. However, the law exposes sin, and that's what my post is about. This generation of Church goers isn't much different than the world because the danger of sin is not being preached.
Romans 7
[5] For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.
[6] But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.
[7] What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.
Why do think catholics/ christians are not generally hated and despised today? LOL
Its because they are not a credible threat, if you adversary does not hate or despise you, theres a reason for that!
