Keep your scriptures and ideas to yourself. We don't need street-corner preachers and churchy "experts" telling us how to live. We can read the Bible just fine.
To be fair, this is a Christianity discussion board and the Bible is the Christian scripture.
In these last days when unrighteousness and unholiness are accepted by the world and the Church alike, the Scriptures declare otherwise; these deeds will prevent one from entering God's Kingdom.
Romans 1
[28] And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
[29] Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
[30] Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
[31] Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
[32] Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
Qouting bible verses without expounding on them is a sure sign you have not entered the kingdom.
I truly believe grace is immeasurable except for those who don't seek forgiveness and are equally unforgiving. All else comes under the blood. This is the way of grace.

Whaaaattt??? Put it on my tab. Does that mean Jimmy is going to the outer darkness with us Godless Beasturds?
Kids who disobey their parents are worthy of death. Oh, good grief. How did I ever read this stuff and think it made sense?
You were asked NOT to think or try to make sense out of it, Pleroo. You were told accepting it was a sign of your Faith in God. It is an insidious but very effective inoculation and immunization against gaining any greater knowledge and understanding of God.
Id like some examples of 'inventors of evil things'.
Im curious what inventions are evil?
Im sure some would say weapons, bombs, tanks, etc, but all those things can be used for good too, defending or fighting evil off.
Cigarettes, alcohol maybe? Sure, they are harmful to our health and cause a lot of problems in society, but on the other hand, 100s of 1000s of people put food on the table that work in those industries.
