I have known people who didn’t practice their religion who were very loving people.

Well by the unambiguous character and Holy Spirit of Jesus I reject the attribution of your words to Jesus.

The love, light, is not something just for Christians, the Christian is supposed to be the “witness” of it and not be drawn astray to the “lesser” things which are necessary for survival, generation, etc
I agree since Christians don’t hold to it. It is available to those who accept the word of LORD.

You cannot be more loving that that.

I do appreciate that the Catholics are moving away from what is called "just war". That is a positive step forward. Do you believe that they are fulfilling the assignment given to Christians CC?


Are you a Catholic?

Of course not, please do not follow me. A believer is one that believes and acts on what God has revealed through His word. We can be examples, keeping in mind that we are far from perfect sir. Best to imitate the one who sent us forth.



For instance, many here believe Jesus is God, yet Jesus clearly stated who he is, and who God is, and instructed us on how to worship Him. Those who refuse to believe in the way Jesus did, obviously are not a genuine believer.

I fully agree. Love is certainly a primary quality of God's people, but certainly not the only identifier Free.

You look at only one side of Jesus that suits your carnal mind.

You most definitely are dead in your sin.

By the way the Holy Spirit of Jesus, the Father and the Son is One and a Spirit you reject.

The words of my brothers are righteous and the works of the LORD are upright and holy.
