And while those points are correct, they've been manipulated. I don't see anything in this definition of love that tells me to sit down and shut up. The Robertson from Duck Commander always point to this definition of love in the Bible. It tells us that love always PROTECTS. The motivation we are supposed to avoid is hate.
1 Corinthians 13:4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
They remind me of my dad in a way. Just lost him recently. Guess that's my inner hick coming out. They've helped bring some common sense back to Christianity. People seem to forget that God is surprisingly "down to Earth". He gets what is going on here, and he addressed all of it.
They avoid the Bible like they avoid critical thinking, so they have no concept of "Righteous Indignation"... J-man flipped the money-changer's table for a reason, then he brought the pain with the whip... I say it's time to bring the pain and show up at the doors of the swamp rats with 10k well armed men and women each, 100k for the FED and IRS.
No, no, no guns Zoidy! That is what the Deep State was hoping would happen at the DC rally, in order to rush through gun restrictions as being justified. They were clearly miffed when Pedes did not show up and do a gun rush, because it sabotaged the narrative they had planned. Since no one from OUR side used guns, they had to use them on theirs in order to make claims about it being "deadly," so they could plan the impeachment hoax. The way to move ahead is to best them at their own game, with legislation and fines, to beat them with the same stick they use on us. TENTH AMENDMENT RIGHTS are the way to counter---negate, mitigate, eviscerate--federal encroachment of our domestic liberties. The Xiden administration is shooting cannons in the hull of our own ship of state to sink it faster, so primarying RINOs out of office needs to be the tactic right now...and, well, let's see what the SCOTUS does next week with the election cases.
I own guns as a last ditch resort, I have 0 desire to kill anyone.
Though if someone shows up trying to push me around, I'm going to look mean as hell.
The pen is mightier, still doesn't mean you shouldn't hold a sword.
Side note: Gov't won't save you from Gov't, period. Learn to give conditional acceptance, and stop believing tyrants have power over you.
2Peter 2:3 - And through covetousness shall they with **feigned **words make **merchandise **of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
They've used legalese to fool the ignorant. NO MAN HAS CONTROL OVER YOU.
1 Thess 4:11-12 - And to aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we instructed you, so that you may walk properly before outsiders and be dependent on no one.
"Do unto others" is a terrible argument for them, because at some point I'm going to do the logical outcome, which is to do unto others as they would have done onto them. Ergo, if they're attacking me when I'm just trying to mind my own damn business, they're going to end up losing all their loot in minecraft.
That's Paulianity.
Christianity only lasted a short time before that moral space was retaken by Judaism via Saul/Paul. Much of the inherent weakness found in modern Christianity is a product of his work, and those who followed. In the 100 years after Jesus, much was twisted or deliberately inverted.
In short - the greatest trick the Devil ever played WASN'T convincing people he didn't exist, it was convincing people he WAS to be the object of worship.
Even shorter - modern Christianity is religious cuckoldry.
If you misunderstand Paul & St Augustine, then you miss the point of all of scripture. Ill agree with you that the church has been twisted out of shape but Augustine/Paul/Luther captured the core of Christ.
And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. (Isaiah 2:4).
I'm not trying to dispute anyone or make a pronouncement regarding the relevance of this verse to the topic, just pointing out the actual verse for the sake of accuracy.
People believe the pussy mantras, "If you kill your enemy, they win." "Eye for an eye makes the world blind. The guy going around collecting eyes, unchallenged? HE'S PEACEFUL". "Turn the other cheek."
Jesus said him-fuckin'-self "I come not to bring peace, but a sword." I bring you the ability to defend yourself against Evil and Wicked.
But yea. Even as a kid, they try to say "Good is gay! So uncool!"
Example, they'll say "being surrounded by beautiful, clean women - that's not HEAVEN! That's the Devil!" And people BELIEVE IT. LOL.
I'll end it here for now.
We've been holding the line for decades, and being undermined at every turn by people either pretending to be our brothers and then backstabbing us, or non-Christians who like the prosperity we've built up but think we could do without all that morality BS.
Keeping a nation up and running while fending off constant attacks from every angle probably isn't anything compared to what you've been doing, though.
To witness God's only son as the whipping post of those that espoused the mosaic law, so that when it happens again, you understand that you're not only going to be carrying that cross for your self worth and salvation, but you're going to fight like a motherfucker from it ever happening again.
It's what roman's used to crucify people. They made him carry it through town as a means of punishment. Much like your mom making you go get the switch, belt, or wooden spoon she gonna whip you with. a walk of shame if you will.
It was the jews that ratted jesus out. They were upset he was rocking the status quo of their money system and religious hierarchy. Jesus was basically saying God is within all of us and you don't need to tithe at the temples for God to hear your prayers. and that he was the King of the Jews. Which the jews deemed blasphemous. So the Jews told the Roman Governor that Jesus was a rebel towards the Roman Empire.
The romans were literally just the occupying authority. They didn't give a shit about Abrahamic Religions at that point in time. They only cared about social appeasement, assimilation, and tax collection. The jews accused Jesus of crimes. The romans were the court of law that carried out the sentence based on false accusations. in a nutshell.
When Jesus was sentenced to be crucified, he was forced to carry his cross from Jerusalem publicly through the streets to the spot he was to be crucified. Many interpret the carrying of the cross as carrying your burden or duty, whatever it may be.
Accepting Jesus as your lord and savior through faith. Any other answer may be right to a degree, but this is what God tells us is our only hope to be saved, because no one has or could fulfill the law of the old testament other than Jesus.
The whole love thy neighbor and the do unto others arguement has dominated the Christian narrative to the point that liberals use it as weapon.
I think that's partly to do with the church changing faces after the crusade and the inquisitions.

It sounds so cheesy to say but god I love listening Phil’s guest sermons. Jase has a way with words too.
They remind me of my dad in a way. Just lost him recently. Guess that's my inner hick coming out. They've helped bring some common sense back to Christianity. People seem to forget that God is surprisingly "down to Earth". He gets what is going on here, and he addressed all of it.
Where can i listen to these phil's guest sermons? Searching returned an australian guy newlifecovenant something, is it this?
That doesn't mean loving your neighbor if he's a child raping satanist. Crazy I know.
Whatever you say you bigot. Love is love.

Time to flip some tables.

Don't forget to take all their loot so you can make more of your own. You know arrows can be a pain to make...

Hahahhaha. Uhhhhhh.....no.
Anachronistic reasoning, my friend. Read the NT and you'll see all you need to see.
"sell thy cloak and buy a sword", lord look we have two swords "it is enough"
I did not come to bring peace but a sword
And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. (Isaiah 2:4).

But dude, that's what we do AFTER we send Lucifer's minions back to the burning fire from where they came. NOT BEFORE.
THERE IS NOTHING IN THE BIBLE THAT SAYS, "SIT BACK AND ALLOW EVIL MEN AND WOMEN TO DEFILE, TORTURE, SLAY AND CONSUME CHILDREN...'
Just sayin
I think you missed his funny there.
I am sick of low-T Christcucks.
Either you are Christian that is all about DEUS VULT or you can GTFO and go home to your wife and her boyfriend.
People believe the pussy mantras, "If you kill your enemy, they win." "Eye for an eye makes the world blind. The guy going around collecting eyes, unchallenged? HE'S PEACEFUL".

What does being a Christian mean?
Ask 1000 Christians get 1000 different answers.
Like this dumb one.
It's the most truthful answer, you just don't like it.
What else have you ever done?
We've been holding the line for decades, and being undermined at every turn by people either pretending to be our brothers and then backstabbing us, or non-Christians who like the prosperity we've built up but think we could do without all that morality BS.
Keeping a nation up and running while fending off constant attacks from every angle probably isn't anything compared to what you've been doing, though.

What was the cross for then?
It's what roman's used to crucify people. They made him carry it through town as a means of punishment. Much like your mom making you go get the switch, belt, or wooden spoon she gonna whip you with. a walk of shame if you will.

When Jesus was sentenced to be crucified, he was forced to carry his cross from Jerusalem publicly through the streets to the spot he was to be crucified. Many interpret the carrying of the cross as carrying your burden or duty, whatever it may be.
That's about all I know. Still reading the bible.
The cross is a reminder that you challenge enemies of the state without fear.
Being Christ-like I would say
Accepting Jesus as your lord and savior through faith. Any other answer may be right to a degree, but this is what God tells us is our only hope to be saved, because no one has or could fulfill the law of the old testament other than Jesus.
