I am !! O.K. Bibble bangers Romans 9 verse 17
The Scriptures says to Pharaoh ( Greathouse) Even for this same purpose I have raised you up, that I might show My power in you and that My name might be declared in all the earth .
Then it goes on to say:
Therefore He has mercy on whom He wills and whom He wills He Hardens .
O.K. Christians explain free fill from the Christian point of view for Me would you? Now that is the fucking shits when your name is Greathouse and all you want to do is be free. Let go of my little piggy toe. Little piggies gots to go to market
And you're just blowing smoke.

No mercy for the enslavement of the people. What else do you have on Greathouse in the bible? im very interested.
Christians have no free will, they are controlled by their church.

like a chimney. But im not haaaigh
I do not hold a definitive position on this.
I only said that killing in the name of God is categorically different from other motivations for killing.
No, it doesn't, you have taken for granted your assumption from your previous post.
I didn't say that, did I?
Belief in God is different from all other beliefs, because it is a belief in God, and God is unique, absolute, has no comparison, no match.
Thus, belief in God is also in its own category, just as God is in His own category.

If you are truly killing by the word of God you are killing in your own name which God holds in high standard, or he wouldn't have given you contract in the first place. I am contacted by God to walk my path, if I so happen to strike a man down it was because God put him in my path to be struck down. I killed the man by my hand, in my name through God's will. As a follower of Christ I know I will not harm thee who did not threaten God's will. Ultimately everything I do walking my path is in the name of the LORD.
Did Jesus kill anybody?
No?
So wtf gives you the right?
What kind of a Christian are you, if you don't
try to follow in the footsteps of Christ?

If a man trys to strike me down I will unleash a force greater than he can match, only if he brings upon himself. By the word of God it is not my right, but my duty. I am not Christ, I am not charged with being the messiah. I follow my own footsteps, if I fall off path I pray the LORD sets me straight. I will be judged as you will, me first.

He has to do with everything. By law I can not strike until being struck, or at least on the attempt of another to strike me.
so you want God to do unto you as you do onto others?
have you ever studied the concept of forgiveness?
'in the name of God'... eh?
James make me moderator already so i can ban him..please?
lean not on your own understanding.
how can he set you straight if you won't listen to anyone but yourself?
It is not your right/duty/calling to judge others.
IOW it is easy to point your finger and say what is wrong with other ppl..its not a gift/talent, its a curse, even the dumbest of ppl can do that.

So God considers revenge a duty??
And whatever happened to Matthew 5:39?
Were did I say anything about revenge? I can not strike until struck.

he has and he will again
Yea, im a follower of Christ. Im just not as easy going as my brother.
By the will of God my word is gold
But my understanding is greater than yours could ever possibly be, or anyone for that mater, save the Christ, or the Father himself.
I listen to those with something to teach me, they are few and far between these days. Im listening to you.. you are a smart fella, you question, but you seem to keep faith.
I judge in the name of God
But to take constant judgment from others and stand tall is a gift.
Pretty hard to believe, coming from a liar.
Still, delusion was always your strong point.
so quit it.
you do not follow Jesus's teachings.
so why did God tell me to focus my OCD on you?
false arrogance.
so listen to me when i say QUIT IT!
learn more about Jesus/God,
find a church home to help you.
lean not on your own understanding.(if you get nothing else from me, get this one.)
seek out wisdom and understanding,do not glorify in your own understanding.
WRONG! (damn it, now look what you made me do..
