In rejecting the God of the Old Testament you show that you don't know God at all, because the God of the Old Testament and the God of the New Testament are one and the same. And there is only one way to God the Father, and that is though Jesus who is Himself God, the Second Person of the Trinity. To teach any other way to the Father except though Jesus is to reject the truth. You reject the truth. The truth divides those who accept it from those who reject it.
See, I AGREE WITH THE BOLD..
BUT ....
Who said I accept the god of the NT?? COMPREHENSION is lacking...
Actually, I pay attention to what JESUS sends my way and the message He wants to share with a frightened and confused world.
That's a large part of the problem here:
The message in your OP is not the message of Yeshua.
Instead of dividing up other people groups part yourself asunder.

Amen...
For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
so is one's opinion--and you ain't a philosopher nor a biblical scholar?
LOVE IS A VERB....
GOD HAS ONE LAW----LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR
Anything I decide to do is called FREEWILL!!!
He loved , he sacrificed , he died because he loves. in that was really not a lot of gooey feelings! LOVE is a Choice . it isn't an emotion and truly almost zero fuzzy wuzzies for him! because it is about commitments and being lawful and having patience . when it is all said and done maybe some emotions because of the fruits created by the commitment to love . instant love isn't love . love is about giving 100 % not needed to get anything back.
and that is why he will let you freewheelers free your willy's/wheelies/ and your whatevers else you want to but someplace else than where he is .
turning everyone the same shade of off brown and demanding everyone dress the same , act the same , believe the same.. doesn't mean anyone will ever learn to love and without the real thing , there is no community!
I like colors, shades and types of flowers and animals .. I got colors in my family and lots of cultures in family . it is great and I love it !
nor did Jesus bother to attempt to change it either. In fact he said it would get worse:
“Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death,
and you will be hated by all nations because of me." ~ Jesus
"When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. " ~ Jesus

Actually I meant what I said ... Jesus didn't bother to change it either.
There will never be a time while this world exists when people who are suffering because they have long been considered OTHER and LESS THAN.

Emotion?/ Do you actually read what other people post or just assume and continue to rant about non-sensible ideas?
Where did any one say it was an emotion? I know I did not. Warm Fuzzies must come to mind as perhaps you are or once were a follower of one of the socially accepted cults?
LOVE IS A VERB. Perhaps English is not the primary language at home? If so, I apologize and will type more slowly..
