Joe Biden says he’s Catholic
Aug 21, 2020, 12:20 AM
|

I believe in God, the Father almighty. And Jesus Christ his son our Lord. Conceived by the power of the Holy Spirt and born of the virgin Mary. I cannot support anyone who supports abortion. If you are a believer and do support these evils or think it’s OK you are destined to hell. I hope you pray and repent before it’s too late

Scripture and teachings are pretty clear on this issue. It’s not a subjective issue in the Christian faith

Scripture is pretty clear on many issues
Aug 21, 2020, 7:49 AM
[ in reply to Re: Joe Biden says he’s Catholic ] |

primarily that man is sinful and needs a Savior. It also teaches that there is only one sin that cannot be forgiven. BTW, you do realize that any one person you vote for is sinful, don't you? Wonder what your are responsible for there? To be sure, it is not "supporting" abortion by proxy just because you cast a vote for a person running for political office to handle the many other issues that matter.
Before telling someone they are going to hell you should consider this, too, there is only One who judges the heart of a man. Is that you?
And, the Scripture is pretty clear about this, you should never wish for one to go to hell. I wonder which is worse, supporting abortion or wishing for someone to go to hell? Or, do you think there are "degrees" of sin that make one worse than another?
Hope you have a good day.

I have to think someone who claims to be a believer wishing someone to hell is a gross misunderstanding of grace and the price God paid. Believe that hurts the heart of God.

I think you guys conveniently miss his point
Aug 21, 2020, 6:11 PM

it's always easier to disparage what the writer didn't actually intend.
His direct quote is," I cannot support anyone who supports abortion. If you are a believer and do support these evils or think it’s OK you are destined to h*e*l*l."
1) He is clearly remarking on Voters as if it were a one-issue Vote - "if you are a believer and do support these evils" - "these evils" being abortion in its sundry despicable forms. There's nothing in his quote that suggests he's commenting on Tax Policy, NOR
does he suggest that ANY CANDIDATE is actually a one-issue Candidate.
He does in fact suggest clearly that he finds it difficult to understand how a "Catholic" can support these issues - one issue or not.
2) In no way does he suggest that "he wishes" the people to go to hail. He simply suggests that he believes that anyone who supports these things is in fact going to hail.
And since he states, "And Jesus Christ his son our Lord", I took his comment to be in complete acceptance that it is not ours to judge - warn maybe - but not be in final judgement.
Reading comprehension, guys, it starts with trying to dig out what the WRITER INTENDS. Without that, you simply comment on your reading preconceptions.
Seriously - have a good one.

if Biden gets in, black abortions will go through the roof.

Man, I gotta hand it to you, you are not like anybody else I know.
You smoke purple. Okay. That meaning is self-evident. I've seen ample posts from you indicating you have more than casual soccer knowledge.
And you're an ardent Trump fan and evangelical Christian.
Not judging, but those are not traits one would ordinarily put together.

"supports abortion" because they are pro-choice is a bit of a stretch to me. I know a lot of people that simply believe that it is a personal decision and not to be decided by the government. I do not agree with that position, but it is not the same is being "pro abortion".
Now...some people are "pro-abortion", but I don't think Biden is one of them.

And most pro-choice voters still want to limit things like late term abortions. It's just easier not to think about anything nuanced, and pick between being a child murderer or a child savior.

You had me until you started adding...
Aug 21, 2020, 9:04 AM
|

additional requirements to help The Blood of Christ be powerful enough to wash the sin off my soul. Conditions such as you added are like fabric softener after the wash cycle. It might make your clothes smell better and some might make them softer but it's damsure not going to make them any cleaner.
Thus is religion man's way to make himself acceptable to God.' Christianity is not a religion. Christianity is God making man acceptable. Christ, in adherence to Levitical Law, offered Himself a sacrifice to pay our debt of a sure spiritual death and thereby redeemed us.

Uh...how do you know?
As far as I personally can get, there simply is no empirical evidence any which way. When the Big Bang went boom, When God created the Heavens and the Earth, when the thread of fate was spun or the Earth-Mother Gaia gave birth to the world...
...I myself dunno. I wasn't there. I am not qualified to have an opinion on how it went down, myself.
Have you been up to Heaven, made thorough investigation, and determined that God is indeed dead and gone and we're all on our own, now?
Belief is personal, and as long as a man's willing to let me believe what I believe, I certainly am not ever going to gainsay him his faith. And I will always at least listen to him when he tells me his own beliefs, because, well, maybe he knows something I don't, you know?

I’m an unaffiliated voter and have cast votes for candidates representing many parties over the years. Objectively, the Republican Party is no longer the one that represents faith (never really did, I suppose). Objectively, it’s not even the party that represents family values, and national defense.

I believe that the Bible teaches that the unborn child
Aug 21, 2020, 12:49 PM
|
|
is a life ad a soul, precious in the eyes of God. I believe if someone does not believe that and believes it's tolerable to end that life intentionally, then they are at odds with the Scriptures.
That doesn't mean a person can't be a Christian, but they certainly need to be more Biblically-grounded one, urgently.

Or it could be you're mistaken on what the Bible said.
Aug 21, 2020, 6:42 PM
|

And it's not your fault if you are. After all, if the Bible said that "an unborn child is a life and a soul" as you suggested, or even better "Thou shalt not commit abortion," which we know is possible because various other rules take that form, then there'd be no question among Christian believers. Unfortunately, no one chose to make the rule clear enough on this particular issue.

Perhaps he was showing solidarity with Christians and providing a display of his resolve to protect that particular church building.
Maybe this goes back to the previous argument that everything a POTUS or politician does is to get reelected. In that case any mention of being Christian or any affiliation with any religion would be considered a for profit venture.
In that case we have many people including Joe to accuse of being blasphemous.

ain't that how it always is. Those that have no Faith live in a dark world fervently trying to describe the holes in the souls of others, while always mortified most by their own emptiness.
But then sometimes us deplorables get treated to a visit from the One himself, the very one from the hole of all holes. He instructs us his reign over us here, given oddly, by God himself. He treats even Kings as mere vermin. Isn't that right?
