  1. There were several judges, not just one, as there are with several Apostles, Pastors, Priests, etc. The logic you push is the fact that the faith group as a collective is one person, when truly that isn't the case, hence it can be understood by the sarcasm posed by the other commentor. Unfortunately it is. So much as so that True Christians can see through the farce, as in finding out false Bible verses that is used to support the Trinity has been exposed to be spurious, and or using Sharp Rule's to justify the belief, twisting the words of Apostles. True Christians recognize that the early Christians, to their core, were Suborinationist that have no holding to any creeds and or beliefs that came after, that is, until Trinitarianism was forced upon them, and over time real Christians stepped up, and some of them were targets and even became victim to those who support an incorrect teaching. And yet when this was asked of you by the latter, it was unfounded. That being said, all faiths have a single and or several religious leaders, you are no different. None, expect, Kairos, claim to be God and or equal to God in any sense. The idea of Restorationist claiming to be Jehovah or Yahweh is as alien as a blizzard in the south. Such doctrines do exist, but it is unheard of concerning Restorationism, Islam, Unitarianism, etc.
  2. Apostasy is as it is as it always is to be. The term that JWs use has no problem in this sense because the God defiling and hating ill are as they are - mentally depraved. Alienate from the good news gospel, is in the realm of Apostasy when you move said person away from what the Bible says, be it by means of his or her own interpretation of the Bible vs. the charismatic folk.
  3. Anything in this regard is persecution. However, concerning the US, you are dead wrong. It shows how little the general public knows of what is going on regarding Abrahamic Faiths in the US alone. That being said, you may want to look into excommunication and shunning a bit thoroughly. As for CSA, it is worldwide, and in all institutions, and does not segregate itself to sex or race.
  4. I assume that this was address a while back, and yet the same thing continues to creep itself.
  5. Another shooting with an active shooter in Philly, 4 police officers injured and or dead, cannot make out the reports but I'd have to check again, other sources show the count to be 6, granted that this is live right now.
  6. There is a LOT of information that is not being conveyed to the public. I was quite busy with reading into all this even some documents that had been released. Hid death was oddly convenient, but the problem is, this angers people like me and the truther community, for now there would be no answer for his crimes, and the names we want, most of them, will be unknown, promptly it lets those in connection to him off the hook. Ms. Maxwell, Epstein's partner, is nowhere to be found, as it has already been meme'd and joked that she left planet earth. Epstein was about 6ft tall and it was said he hung himself off a bunk bed, with knees to the floor, however, this would be deemed impossible for the bed-sheets were as thin as paper and could not hold someone of his height and size, which was claimed, more so, before his apparent death, one of the inmates that was jailed with him had been removed. Screaming was also heard from Epstein's room, and it is now said, someone who is hanging himself, how was he able to scream. There was also a delay on the autopsy of his body, and the person who is said to have discovered his body was none other than Mark Epstein (whose wealth is also a mystery), the brother of the late wealthy convicted pedophile. Also there is talk about Naomi Campbell whereas Epstein's sex slave (Virginia Roberts Giuffre) was seen at a Birthday Party, perhaps the only underage girl there at the time as some are saying, and there is a picture: That being said, I was reading unsealed Epstein Docs before the claim of "Camera's Malfunctioning" was coined: https://docs.wixstatic.com/ugd/340226_a6ab3f919e2741919ec645fe1ede1d7c.pdf That being said, still looking into this myself due to the fact everyone is all over this now, and ironically no one batted an eye years ago regarding this person.
  7. @Witness About John 2:19 (19-12) of this we know. This verse (or small passage), of which only Apostle John had recorded, John 20:19 is something of debate in the realm of those for/against Trinitarianism, such as the proclamation that spawns a pushed notion that Jesus Christ himself had performed the miracle of Self-Resurrection, which is false, due to that it was mentioned countless times that God had raised Jesus from the dead, more so, making him both Lord and Christ, which was professed by Simon Peter at Pentecost 33AD unto the disciples and evidently unto converts who accept both the faith and the teachings. What Jesus met by means of what he had said confused the Jews, for they assume he was talking about the Temple of Herod, which had been constructed in 46 years’ time. Later on we see when Jesus was under trail, his opposers, those against him began to speak his words, but clearly mix and twist regarding what Jesus had said, to spin the narrative, if you will (Matthew 26:61; 27:40 and Mark 14:58). But the factor of the matter is that Jesus was speaking figuratively as this is evident in John 2:21, for he was comparing his death and resurrection to that of destroyed/rebuilt temple. Jesus is also referred to as another term, the cornerstone, and both Simon Peter and Apostle Paul also a similar saying concerning the followers of Jesus. Regarding the that the body of the Christ is the Temple of God, of this we also already know, and in that temple there is the faith, there is the teachings. The verse you pointed to, Ephesians 2:21 has more to it. The outline [By Grace Through Faith] gives us insight of what this chapter conveys concerning Apostle Paul’s letter to the Church of Ephesus while he was in Rome. For 2:11–3:21 in full is concerning the change in the spiritual position of Gentiles as a result of the work of Christ, in addition to an account of how Paul was selected and qualified to be an apostle to the Gentiles, as is with talk of unity among those in the church of the same faith of which I had mentioned just some days ago in the Whitewash thread in response to the boy, which I will quote here: Around the time this letter was written, a similar letter was conveyed by Apostle Paul to the Church of Colossae. Both the Colossians and the Ephesians had similar issues, in the case of the Ephesians, there was a lot of paganism concerning them, especially their area, i.e. one of the wonders of the land of which was mentioned in the Bible. Regarding your source, “congregation” is the joining of people in groups, organized, etc. Said group of people gather together for a purpose and or activity (in this case, they congregate together to worship and profess faith in unity). In the Hebrew text, this term is often associated with The Nation of Israel (or simply put - Israel) whereas in the Greek text, it refers to people and or individual congregations of a body of Christians and or often a direct reference to the general Christian church congregation, however often times some translations the term Church or Congregation is often used in order to show the reader the difference of what is being referred to when and where, etc. The term associated with both church and congregation is "Fellowship" which in brief means the friendly association and or gathering; especially with people who share one's interests, more so, those who are of the faith, called, being in fellowship with the Son who is Lord – For Apostle Paul’s greeting and thanking God for the Corinthians he had mentioned this in his first letter to them. Said second source of which you pulled speaks of those who are not among the chosen ones who will rule alongside, it even makes the distinction that such ones are dedicated to God and Jesus, more so, being in the same church, having the same faith as those who deem themselves as chosen concerning the body. Pentecost 33AD and all events regarding it is shown and can be read in the book of Acts chapter 2 in full, its allusion being chapter 1 as is Luke 24 and other marginal references. Jesus’ sacrifice is also something of benefit for mankind itself outside of the chosen ones, especially the sheep that are loyal and faithful and accepting of the teachings of the Christ of which they accept and built their faith upon, which brings 1 John 2:22 to mind. The term “Body of Christ” has several main but separate meanings. We already see and understand that in Luke 22:12-14, the term refers to [Jesus' words over the bread at the Last Supper that in regards to his body] and in Apostle Paul’s case, namely in his Letter to the Corinthians, 1 Corinthians 12:12-14 and his letter to the Ephesians, Ephesians 4:1-16, [he links the term to the Christian Church (Congregation)]. This term is also in connection of what you are conveying by only small portions from said sources you are drawing from, which is [concerning the chosen ones who will reign and rule with our Lord – Christ Jesus]. For some also associate the term [concerning the Lord when he associated himself with the poor of the world and this is also called the Body of Christ.] Aside from that, why not show more from your source and or take into account concerning the church itself as I have a bit more? Of this we know (again... regarding the body of the Christ). We can also take into account of chapter 1 of Apostle Paul’s focus concerning both the chosen ones and the faithful servants of the Christ in the Church. God’s purposes concern his household, for they, the chosen ones who will side with Christ and they, the ones to have the eternal life and resurrection hope, are united with God our Father through our Lord, Christ Jesus. For it is not unknown to anyone that Apostle Paul addresses both, granted that he himself was very close and connected with the Church of Ephesians. That being said, would have said something sooner, but clearly I was far more focused on all things pertaining on big news that has spun the wheels of the truther community.
  8. Didn't the first century Christians baptized people in Jesus' name due to the fact that Christians were to take up the teachings of the Christ concerning God? I agree with the church as is with our church fathers of old concerning what Matthew 28:19.
  9. @admin Sometimes that isn't accurate, for it can be a little more or a little less of what is given to you. Reasons why I prefer all things in line with longevity, which works very well.
  10. @Arauna This can also cause an indirect consequence, which in of itself, being misinformed and or misunderstood can ruin someone's life, which seems to be the case in everything.
  11. That would have been the case, but I am the type of person who sees the things of this world for what it really is, and I am not the only one. Think about it, shootings will still happen, there will always be blame and a scapegoat, which will take place several days to a week later, there will be those who spin the narrative to bank and profit and shut down anyone who speaks the truth of the matter, there will always be fear mongering and insighting of fear, there will always be a push to disarm and or control, which will make anyone who upholds the second amendment be branded either a victim and or an enemy, and at the end of the day, government will have their say in regards of many parties who think and or say otherwise in support and or against.
  12. @BillyTheKid46 It may come down to how blood is removed from meat/poultry and how it is cleaned. For a majority of us outside of the US, and especially on the islands such as Cuba, Haiti, Jamaica, Dominican Republic, and some South American areas, when we clean meat, we do so thoroughly, with either vinegar and or lemon/lime being other items in the cleaning process which takes anywhere from 1-2 hours, and afterwards and again use either the same items we used to clean the meat and keep it chilled for several days after it is cleaned and after an X amount of days said meat can be used for whatever dish. What we also do during the cleaning process, granted that a majority of us reside in the US and or if outside have some meat products shipped to the countries, we before we undergo the cleaning process of blood, we clean out the chemicals - granted that some meat process is riddled with chemicals to preserve the meat products (one of the reasons a whole lot of us like grass fed meat products more). In the United States, there is a lot of people who cook their food without cleaning it, with either blood and or chemical still intact - one of my reasons I do not always like American BBQ spots, such as Famous Dave's, for I wouldn't get any beef or chicken there if need be. As for consuming/giving blood, culturally, outside of even religion itself, some of us do not do, we must not do, even in the face of insult, more so, we do anything and everything to not be in alignment with a common enemy in said countries, others, who do not take or give due to superstition reasons. As far as Christendom goes, some do not accept blood, for the saying was this was only a JW thing, however, in a heated discussion with an SDA preacher who spoke of blood and the stance JWs had not realizing it isn't only them who uphold such, for a lot of Christians, both JW and not, had colorful things to say regarding blood. That being said, for me, I cannot eat or take blood, not only due to what the Bible says, but also by means of strong cultural roots, in addition to what I consider the biggest enemy in my father's country, which has a way of traveling outside of the land. At the end of the day, what is said in regards to not take or give is there, but even though it is said, the decision is up to the person, for their decision is between them and God.
  13. And yet in what you linked it speaks of the chosen ones and several allusions to those of the church, as is, with what JWI and what the boy conveyed in the other thread which are in connection with this, especially concerning the church that Jesus built.
  14. @James Thomas Rook Jr. I am speaking in regards to anything as of recent concerning something serious, as is, perhaps an outcome.
  15. But you have the powers that be who say otherwise and push a narrative to draw forth fear, which can and has been disarming, even harming those who seek to protect themselves, and their families, even if you do everything by the book. Then you have those who take up influence to cause harm to those who are deemed enemies, i.e. the Patriots to Antifa, Antifa to the Patriots. Although a right, at the end of the day, you have no power to defend, but rather, what the Government and those in said power who says what you can truly defend and whom to trust [them] with your firearms. It isn't about ignoring, it is more about control. Government has their hands everywhere, in the schools, the banks, the churches, the stores and shops, etc. They do the same with whatever it is you use to defend yourself. But it seems the game that is on the table has changed, especially with the situation the United States is in now. But above all else in the world run by so called kingdoms and empires, the government has their hands everywhere. You are lucky enough to escape the grasp for a moment, only to be reeled back in for another big wave. What people fail to realize is the power they have on everything that stands tall, and everyone who roams cities and towns. We already have radiation forced upon us untested, causing people to speak up, likewise, the situation is similar with guns.
  16. @James Thomas Rook Jr. The term itself is accurate however. Think not that I am come … - This is taken from Micah 7:6. Christ did not here mean to say that the object of his coming was to produce discord and contention, for he was the Prince of Peace, Isaiah 9:6; Isaiah 11:6; Luke 2:14; but he means to say that such would be one of the effects of his coming. One part of a family that was opposed to Him would set themselves against those who believed in him. The wickedness of men, and not the religion of the gospel, is the cause of this hostility. It is unnecessary to say that no prophecy has been more strikingly fulfilled; and it will continue to be fulfilled until all unite in obeying his commandments. Then his religion will produce universal peace. Compare the notes at Matthew 10:21. But a sword - The sword is an instrument of death, and to send a sword is the same as to produce hostility and war. Also see for commentary - https://biblehub.com/matthew/10-34.htm We should always forgive them, despite how vile some of them are. But not everyone takes into account forgiveness and repentance of sin, instead consider it nothing more as a game, for endless relapse into sin and err. So as imperfect ones, some among us, are truly not all that forgiving, nor some of us are all that repentant, thus throwing away of what the Bible says regarding such.
  17. Also confusion and willful misinformation pushes those who dwell on anything false and or untruth to reap profits. In a sense, some profit off of fear of the world somehow ending by means of climate change.
  18. @James Thomas Rook Jr. And yet you have the government, the powers that be who seek to make things even worse, the real masterminds behind various things of their own design. I myself isn't someone for guns despite holding one once that was unloaded a very long time ago, but I have met people who had used and trained with them, especially, for instance, Steven Gern, he is a former US marine. That being said, the focus is in question if For Government Control and Not For Government Control concerning guns, and due to the march for our lives event when such questions are addressed concerning such, it exposes the fact that even the people do not know what they are fighting for and or are deeply confused, for example, the ban of bump stocks has not changed the situation of gun control and gun violence throughout the US, as is with the confusion of those, at said event who are in favor of banning assault rifles, but are somehow okay with handguns, for it is said over 80% of mass shootings are carried out by someone with handguns vs. that of assault rifles, regardless it comes down to not the weapon, but the person who is holding that weapon who commits to cause harm. I also remember someone pointed out that the US should do what the Chinese are doing concerning guns, making it as difficult as possible to get a license to carry, but since the US is in the state that it is, with guns all over the place, it comes down to people wanting to stand their ground and defend, but there are those who commit to hate and chaos that makes it harder for the good guy with the gun to actually take action. I get a lot of heat for speaking against lies against the police, for I am even called a police sympathizer, but the truth is the truth, not all policemen are evil, but today's world say otherwise. The head of police does can only counsel the people within the force, actions done by members of the force can either be good willed or ill willed, but it does not define all of them.
  19. The death toll has been updated, for this time it is, as I assume all of you have heard, has increased to 22, including the 9 deaths in Ohio, makes the death toll 31 (Gilroy bringing the count of victims to 34). Aside from that, there are demonic ones our there by means of their ill influence who think stuff like this is a game, whereas a man was an arrested for posting a threat, for he states he would kill 500 people not thread, pushing this as a goal. The El Paso Texas shooter and the Ohio shooter both of have an ideology of the left/right whereas one leans left to the extreme, and the other, leans right to the extreme. The Gilroy shooter, however was more into rage, anger and hate, and had no leaning whatsoever. For there was a LOT of discussion in the independent media and the truther community regarding this. This is evident to what is discovered: He, the El Paso Shooter, considers the Republican Party terrible, he supported universal income universal health care and was an environmentalist, which provides the fact that he was allegedly left wing (right opposed; opposing right), however, the fact that he also did hold far right extremist views on immigration, which some are led to believe that being the overall motive of the that was the attack, targeting an area, which is known to have a demographic about 80% in regards to the Hispanic/Latino community, shows he was leaning right – which is more accurate to consider him right wing extremist. He also had a concern for the demographic replacement of white people (granted of how people in the US view white men branded all of them as bad, both young and old, even those who are innocent in this madness). Despite the fact the shooter wrote a manifesto of his beliefs, the MSM (mainstream media - CNN) pushed the notion that President Trump was the force of inspiration to this shooter, however, the shooter’s beliefs predate Trump, hence the claim of inspiration is unfounded, and already, left wingers have already, as we speak, are exploiting this tragedy and there are those politicizing this shooting as is with the other, and the end result of their depraved and non-problem solving warpath is to blame Trump, all the while such as is with the MSM continue to trick and brainwash the masses with this notion (such as President Candidate Beto O'Rourke, CNN anchors, Reza Aslan, Ms. Warren’s comment about Fox News when it is known her biggest fan was one of the shooters, etc.) Their blame game is problematic, because if one were to put blame on Trump regarding El Paso, likewise, someone such as, President Candidate Elizabeth Warren should hold blame as well, for the other shooter, the Ohio Shooter publicly supported Ms. Warren and proclaimed that he was going to vote for her to quote [“Nahh, but only cuz Harris is a cop - Warren I'd happily vote for”], and he reveals himself to be opposing right left wing and or a leftist, even described himself to be such. It is evident that he is a left winger due to the fact he wanted Socialism and had expressed great praise and sympathy for ANTIFA (the anti-facist group is also left wing extremist) for one of their own (Willem Van Spronsen) was responsible for the firebomb attack on an ICE facility; referring to the bomber as a martyr – mind you very VERY little is spoken of regarding this attack and a whole lot of misinformation has been passed around. He invoked Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez regarding her concentration camp rhetoric and he had pushed and tweeted to vote blue, retweeted Democratic President Candidate Brine Sanders, he also tweeted to kill every fascist, he tweeted Right Wing watcher Jared Holt (of which I will get into later), as is a follower of Michael/Mike Stuchbery and praised him too, and we know he is a Satanist because in one of his tweets, he quotes, [“hail Satan”], which is a strong indicator of a soul who is evidently alienated from God and Christ, and God’s people. All of which, again, shows us that the Ohio shooter was a left wing extremist, for the support of ANTIFA is a solidified giveaway. More so, Mehdi Hasan blamed Trump for the El Paso shooting and the Ohio Shooter responded to Hasan by saying he is [“Arm, train, prepared”]. Not to mention the fact that he had kill list of those he has hate for, and a rape list as well targeting girls in school at the time, all the while he was in high school - and of course, the signs have been ignored, and no flags were raised. I like many do not like the idea of shameless, stupid and ignorant people rushing to turn negative life changing tragedies politicize gold rush, especially when there is a blame game cross-fire that is ensuing, the blow back and the aftermath that is both the bread and butter to engineering more negativity by molding bad influence which begets wickedness. For as is what I had said about various things, like violence and child abuse, the same case can be said regarding mass shootings, for there will be no end to them, as to those exploiting tragedy, shootings happened, even predate Trump’s presidency, and they will continue to take place after his presidency, for people, seem to forget that such is the price we pay due to sin, provided by means of imperfection. As to make a case regarding Gun Laws (nor are the actions of those who are Statist), it will not change anything, for the real problem lies within the society of those in America in our young women and mostly in our young men, granted America is known to be gun crazy and fairly an easy country for anyone to get their hands on a gun and or rifle. We live in a world whereas nihilism is indeed great, for nihilism the rejection of all religious and moral principles, in the belief that life is meaningless, as some would say somewhat of an aspect of spiritual death, with this mentality and such one in effect by such being on the stage of neo-liberalism that indoctrinates young people to cut off/to shun community, the family structure and education found in the family, such a society teaches the push for fame and or instant notoriety coupled with generating controversy and the ideology of narcissism, to have riches, today’s society glorifies and celebrates criminals and killers, in which the MSM and those who support it gives fame and picture to murderers, a society that produces those to the level of being desperate and to become pathetic in so as much to not obtaining such high standards and or status that commits to the consequence of a life of serious and relentless mediocrity to the notion of lashing out, to commit violence. For regarding such 2 Timothy 1:1-7 comes to mind as is with all references pertaining to such. Another point I would like to make is race is somehow always involved. Regarding the demographics of such, Caucasian/White males, young men are often targeting of and being moved into resentful extremist practices and ideologies, for we know this because in today’s society and culture, such ones are often blamed for many problems for historical evils (i.e. so and so should be beaten, assaulted physically and or sexually, etc because of wicked men in the past, be it of and or no relation to such one), for there are those out there who proclaim that young Caucasian/White males are a cancer to society for such often begets a negative response when you push such ones over the edge with absurdities, when such is not true, but even if you speak the truth in this matter, you have stupid persons out there and hypocrites who try to proclaim otherwise knowing they are dead wrong. That being said, there are those out there that think they have solutions to the problem, but go about things the wrong way and only cause more problems and continue to make the flames bigger, while those with the solutions to try, knowing they cannot stop something 100%, but rather try to minimize the situation. In the meantime, safety is of high concern but even safety in of itself – is merely a placebo, especially in your own home, therefore, vigilance is key. Also a sidenote: The Video Game Community is under attack, and somehow got pulled into this mess, and the warpath of painting all gamers as violent and uncaring is on the move again: As brought forth in this video on this link. Also regarding Jared Holt:
  20. The sign of such one who does not take into account of what Paul conveys. Now, you are right to say what you said for Apostle Paul wrote the First Epistle (Letter) of Corinthians to the church of Corinth, the focus for Apostle Paul was to upbuild the church, to giver counsel concerning the unity of all those in the church, he conveys counsel on morality and or being clean in the moral domain, as is to have love for all brothers and sisters in the church for the Church of Corinth had several problems, which is the reason Apostle Paul had to make action concerning such, i.e. Corinth had a reputation for its depravity, and the temple prostitutes of Aphrodite (false god; Greek Goddess which is a counterpart to Roman Goddess Venus, as is to the Phoenician and Canaa’nite Astarte, and the Babylonian Goddess Ishtar) did not help in saving the city's bad name, more so, there was even the practice of fornication and a list of other things. Apostle Paul was the one to help establish the church of Corinth during his ministry tour. Moreover, Corinth is also mentioned in the Acts of the Apostles (The Book of Acts) concerning Paul’s ministry travels. During Apostle Paul’s 3rd ministry tour, he was in Ephesus, Paul had received word regarding the Church of Corinth, and such of what was given to him was negative. This resulted in the First Epistle (Letter) being written to the Church of Corinth, for Paul here wants to counsel, encourage and upbuild the church itself, not solely the priest, granted Witness’ claim of such is in err due to the fact of what is read in chapters 1 to 4 in 1 Corinthians whereas Apostle Paul pushing said upbuilding for the members of the church to be united, in addition, he urges them to not give in to thinking that is clearly negative, with the bulk of what Paul is conveying is emphasized in 1 Corinthians chapter 3. The matter of morality and immorality is expressed in chapters 5 to 6 for Paul counsels that the Christians of the Church of Corinth should flee from sexual sin that opens door to ill flesh desires by means of sexual immorality, as is with the practice of excommunication when it comes to those who commit acts of wrong willfully. Chapter 7 goes into the counsel of those who are single and those who are married, concerning, as the Bible outline says, Married Life and or Principles of Marriage (depending on what translation you use). Chapters 8 to 10 is concerning humbleness and the push for spreading the good news gospel. Chapter 11 is concerning the Lord’s Supper and Head Coverings whereas chapter 12 Apostle Paul connects the Church of Corinth to that of the body parts of the human anatomy for although both male and females have vastly different roles in the church, something both Srecko and Witness were disagreeing with, that such ones are still in union with the church, in union with the Christ, therefore, Paul was counseling to upbuild so as to which the Church of Corinth can be unified. Chapter 13 is concerning what love is and how it is displayed as is how it is not displayed. Chapter 14 is all about Order, the structure of the church, as is the church must be harmonious, for again, the one who claims to be chosen stated otherwise, as is the lackey. Chapter 15 is concerning the Resurrection Hope regarding our Lord, Christ Jesus as is with accounts of Jesus’ resurrection in connection over winning the battle against sin and death and spoken prophecy, hence the mention of Macedonia, and he has given final instruction in verses 12 to 15 and his final greeting in this chapter is verses 19 to 24. Several months later, Apostle Paul wrote his Second Epistle (Letter) to the Corinthians, the church of Corinth. Around that time, Titus, a friend of Apostle Paul, went to Corinth to help out as is to check up on how the church is doing. Afterwards, Titus returned to Apostle Paul with rejoiceful news. As a side note, it is stated by some that Timothy was a co-writer of the letter, and that the message was not only for the church of Corinth, but also Christians in the surrounding area Achaea, hence 2 Corinthians 1:1. The focus of this second letter revolved around God’s mercy and righteousness. Apostle Paul writes his second letter to the Corinthians, indicating his desire to visit the church (2 Corinthians 12:14, 2 Corinthians 13:1). The letter does not indicate where he is writing from, however, it is stated to be usually dated after Apostle Paul left Ephesus for Macedonia (Acts 20), from either Philippi or Thessalonica in Macedonia, as some would say. Some other points, Witness pointed now points out sanctuaries when the focus regarding those verses point to the Church of Corinth, granted Apostle Paul’s letter, as is with references to aid letter similar to the others that he wrote, moreover, granted we are talking about Corinthian, as can see here once again, the confusing of Temples back in the days of Israel vs. Christian Churches that came when the teachings that Jesus Christ conveyed began to spread to those of the nations. Granted the Church of Corinthian was not solely Jews, we can see by the passage in question, the church consists of Jews and Gentiles. Unless you want to put forth an imagination and believe as some do that perhaps Greece was run by and only by Jews, with not a single Gentile in sight. Witness claims only the chosen ones represent God’s Temple – that is, the Christ. However, as we can see in the verses cited by Witness has mixed verses again. Witness’ claim would have held steadfast if there was no mention of those who are not chosen, granted by the gravity of context by the verses that was mixed in with said claim, example such as 2 Corinthians 6:16, the whole chapter, proclaims concerns fellowship within Christendom, someone who is a True Christian and someone who isn't and that such imbalance can cause harm to the church itself. In addition, the chapter conveys God’s spirit dwelling within those in union with the Temple of God, hence the marginal references concerning those in union with the Christ, as one reference points back to 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 concerning the, to quote myself “Apostle Paul pushing said upbuilding for the members of the church to be united, in addition, he urges them to not give in to thinking that is clearly negative, with the bulk of what Paul is conveying is emphasized in 1 Corinthians chapter 3.” Witness attest to the idea that Paul here was speaking solely of those who make up the chosen ones, which is incorrect, for Apostle Paul here was addressing the WHOLE church by means of his letter, and this chapter, as is with the messaged taken into account by other Christians in the area, Jew and or Greek, more so, the fact we know he was referring to everyone in the church is evident in the very beginning verses of the chapter, for clearly a rejoiceful man who’s counsel helped a church that was in trouble, would speak to not only priests, or whomever has some rank in the church, but the people, who are in union in Christ with him as is having God’s spirit dwell in him and all, a strong reason as to why the verses in Ephesians is cited too. Ephesians 2:20-22, Chapter 2 in its entirely is regarding all Christians, in this regard, the Ephesians, and at the time Apostle Paul wrote this letter from Rome, while under guard and awaiting trial. More evidence that shows how Witness is painting the message on the wall here is the fact that chapter 1 (also well into 3), from the get go, Apostle Paul addresses both the chosen ones who will be with the Christ and the ones who will have eternal life, coming together in union to God through Jesus Christ. From there it brings us to chapter 2 whereas Paul spoke of the Old Covenant being a blockade to Jews and Gentiles, but because of Jesus sacrifice, because of the death of our Lord, this blockade has ceased to exist, for as stated many times, Jesus’ death enabled the New Covenant, all things pertaining to Spiritual Israel, and God’s people consist of both Jews as well as Gentile, for Paul pointed out already there is no distinction between Jew or Greek, and a nod to Simon Peter, who stated God is impartial, more so, God’s spirit dwells upon True Christians who accept the teachings and adhere to what Jesus taught, as is with worship his God. That being said, simply look up the discussion regarding LIVING STONES regarding me and Witness, and from there you can see further things that deem contradictory to what was stated by Witness in this thread, WHITEWASH. I also liked to point to what I had stated to a Trinitarian a while back in a debate about 4th century Church Fathers concerning True Christians and the fact God dwells in true Christ, as he has dwelled in Christ and his Disciples: There is more to it, but I am being simple and respectful to the context of God dwelling in true Christian and yet being brief here. Lastly, it is quite evident that Chloe was not a priest (granted that religious office was more associated with males in the church and the fact when Paul addressed roles and only used HE and HIM, as is what he addressed concerning Adam and Eve in terms of Order). Chloe was mentioned once in the Bible – only once. And in this instance most translations will merely say HOUSE OF CHLOE, which is regarding Chloe’s family. For the woman (Chloe) through whose family Apostle Paul’s reports included, connected to the situation regarding the reports of the church of Corinth, which played a role in Paul writing his first letter. Srecko had stated before that Chloe was of religious office of the church as is with the error on both their part regarding one Judge of Israel. Albert Barnes commentary 1 Cor. 1:11 [“Of the house of Chloe - Of the family of Chloe. It is most probable that Chloe was a member of the church at Corinth, some of whose family had been at Ephesus when Paul was, and had given him information of the state of things there. Who those members of her family were, is unknown. Grotius conjectures that they were Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus, mentioned in 1 Corinthians 16:17, who brought the letter of the church at Corinth to Paul. But of this there is no certain evidence; perhaps not much probability. If the information had been obtained from them, it is probable that it would have been put in the letter which they bore. The probability is that Paul had received this information before they arrived.”] That being said, a lot of commentary even in regards to such things shows evidence to the blindness spouted by some who are both confused and the deluded in the face of Bible truth, which can be seen, you speak of Paul yet you get a talk about Korah even called Korah for stating the truth.
  21. You do know I believe this, WHITEWASH page 1, to which I even responded with biblical evidence in which you said there isn’t anything and paraphrased from legitimate sources such as scholars and Theologians, such as your favorite – Albert Barnes. And I will gladly quote myself, to which you stated before there is no Scriptural Evidence: Which is indeed true, especially when we can see the first few comments of the WHITEWASH thread before I even mentioned the Book of Jeremiah. Also true, for you and Srecko pushed the notion of Christian churches in ancient Israel concerning a Judge, as is with false information of Chloe, in which you knew Srecko's claims were in err, yet you sided with him every step of the way, when the Bible itself holds true to the fact that both of you were in the wrong. Which goes back to when I asked you in the WHITEWASH thread concerning ALL of God's people, which you ignored, and mixed and cherry pick verses concerning only the chosen ones, especially with what Paul wrote. And what point are you trying to prove with this one concerning hypocrisy, granted what I mentioned in page 1 of your WHITEWASH thread, and the fact you uttered afterwards to the child that I do not believe such? Granted you will merely quote without giving an explanation when the information I address is there and clear, with biblical support all intact. As for my answer to JWI, it was a correct one. The chosen ones are in union with the Christ, the ones with the hope of eternal life are in union with the Christ. Those of Zion and those of the earth believe and follow Jesus, and they worship his God, Yahweh, the one who has paved away for the New Covenant to take place, of which it stems back to his original promise. Jesus himself died for all of mankind, not solely a selected few, his church, just days later, consist of both Jews and Gentiles accepting and following his teachings. Because I will always defend it as I do with Shema Yisrael and the Holy Spirit, as I had done for years, for such has not changed. Can you point out absurd claims regarding the New Covenant concerning them? Because we go back to the WHITEWASH thread, we can see what is said by such ones as the boy, JWI, and the lot. Jesus did not give himself up as a sacrifice to the Jews only, but to Gentiles as well. To believe otherwise is being ignorant, willful in absurd notion and claim. And I address again, can you point this out in the face of what JWI and the boy had said, as is with the core belief of Christendom mentioned and paraphrased by me and others in the WHITEWASH thread? It can be pointed that you are in err fairly easily by mere passages and marginal references to passages to prove to claim and what you are being accused of. Restorationism still exists, both in group and lone ones. Restorationism is not even part of mainstream Christendom, which is a known fact to everyone. One thing for certain, there are some who has given into mainstream Christendom, thus breaking away from Restorationist roots altogether, whereas the majority enters into mainstream Christendom, the belief of hellfire torment, afterlife and living souls, spirit torment, tainting God's love and impartially, teaching that only Jews are of Christ and all Gentiles are doomed, Trinitarianism, Oneness belief, New Ageism, Spirituality, Astrology, etc. There are those, no, the majority of mainstream Christendom that take to the idea that since all of us believe in God we should unite in form of an interfaith, to which those who are against the mainstream, against the protest and or reformation, speak and preach against, be it directly or indirectly. Mainstream Christendom and the interfaith idea it pushes is seen as a clear and great threat to those who follow the Christ, as a real chosen one had stated, that there are those who do not know the real enemy they are fighting, for such ones are the ones to be easily swayed by the mainstream without notice, like a unexpected flood, hence my strong disdain for the mainstream, what they have done as is with the events they produce such as peak, Kairos, and that abomination that was taken place in Washington, to which I had challenged a mainstreamer and told him to repent and go about the truth the right way in before regarding this, as confused as Mario is, I pity him unfortunately, it has fallen to sexual sin. That being said, JWs have always been and still are Restorationist, granted that Great Awakening is when Restorationsim came forth, and at the time they were Bible Students, and as the years went on by other Retorationist have either went off grid and or gave in to mainstream Christendom, for even in that day and age there was always a constant fight between the mainstream and the non-mainstream. For today, the bulk of the fight for thee truth about God and his Christ is against the front-line solider of mainstream Christendom, the interfaith and Trinitarianism. It isn't about sympathizing, it is about speaking the truth concerning lies and or conspiracy. I speak the truth of other things, and deemed a Jesuit, a Jew, a police lover, far right or a leftist, a racist, etc, even you added a claim you could not prove regarding you calling me Misogynist when that is down right forbidden in my culture, we even have sayings and proverbs regarding women, hence why I challenged you to give evidence and you never said a word. That being said, I really do not care what you stance is regarding JWs, you can hate them to the ends of the earth, no one is going to knock you, but to produce lie and or conspiracy, that is another issue. More so, even concerning the Bible and the Bible alone, God's inspired word, speak otherwise of his word, I can guarantee you, as I have done before, you would be refuted, for speaking outlandishly of God's Word with something that has no sense with prompt challenge and question, of which I am clearly known for, more so, the fact you do not consider such a mistake but push such willful will only make the matters worse. That being said, if the Bible proclaims the God had saved Hezekiah from the Assyrians army and someone proclaims this truth, immediately you attest to that being of the WT's teachings, and yet somehow it is right in your eyes that the savior of Hezekiah was the deceiver all along. That in of itself shows foolishness and ignorance when the Bible tells us clearly of who saved Hezekiah and how it was done. Of course you only point to, no, cherry pick, the verses concerning only the chosen ones. I suggest you check ALL verses concerning the New Covenant as a whole, rather than a few verses. For, sacrificing a passage or a context of something for the sake of a single and or very few verses does not help to push the message of the Christ, nor does it help anyone. That notion you push is enough to give some random stranger in the ministry a lost hope that if he or she is not of the chosen ones, such one has no chance, thus causing a bigger void between accepting the teachings and learning about God. One of the reasons I even told you in the past - do you even adhere to the Great Commission? The answer to this is evidently a bold no. As I recall, Jesus died for all of mankind, and Jesus wanted the people to know who he is, and who his God is, as this is strongly brought forth in Jesus' final prayer. And your point? Jesus is a mighty warrior and King, and he commits to the purpose and the will of the Father for he himself made this clear if you understood John 10:30 and all references to that verse. Jesus with angels under him, fought the Heavenly Warrior against Satan and his demons and will be continue the fight on the day of God’s Day – Harmageddon, and it will not solely be God’s adversary and the demons he will deal with, but also, those who are of the wicked. In the WHITEWASH thread, there is a link to your response to a woman on this forum, with evidence of you watering down our Messiah's role as King. For it isn't about a cape, Witness, it is about the seriousness of Jesus' Kingship, him being at the right hand of God and made superior to all the angels, the fact that he led an army against the one you assume to have had a role against The Egyptians and saving Hezekiah somehow. That being said, Superman isn’t Disney, the character belongs to DC comics and WB. As in Disney level, it is regarding of you equaling to Jesus's role as King to that of the level of Mickey Mouse, so to speak. Jesus' role is a serious one, and God's purpose and will is done through Jesus, even in regards to the fact that Jesus is King, for instance, the fact he will resurrect people by the multitudes as Apostle John conveyed. The one of whom you proclaim the message for as is with those who follow said message have been spoken of in the past be it by name or by where such one can be located simply by quoting your proclaimer, an example would be the topix thread, of which I had addressed before the website has changed, even linked screenshots of someone else you defended to show evidence that no one agrees with said person when you said otherwise. You and your proclaimer have been called to question because there was a discussion concerning several things. No mistake because back in our original discussion when topix was accessible, several followers were mentioned including you, one of the reasons one of my original questions to you went along the lines that if the Bible had been corrupted. For, this isn't the first time I addressed this to you either, for way back I attested to this, as is with the whole gun totting, poison drinking claim regarding JWs by followers of another whom you adhere to.

  23. @Matthew9969 And Excommunication originates from the Bible, as is such practice had been entrusted to the church, thus, becomes an ability used by the church concerning sinners who commit wrong, as is with an example given should someone wish to come back to the church.
