If Israel is no longer G-d’s servant, why is G-d still concerned with them? Why doesn’t G-d punish former Christian countries such as Sweden and Finland because they have become secular and atheistic? Is G-d not that interested in Christians? Or, has Christianity mis-understood the Bible and blasphemed G-d’s name by claiming the Jews are no longer G-d’s people and Torah no longer valid.
Are you not a believer in the New Testament?
Please read Romans 1 - 25; 29
I can not decide for ones self whether the Torah is valid as much as I can not decide for ones self if the koran is valid. This is called free will. I believe the Bible to be the truth and G-d inspired old and new Testaments. i BELIEVE THE TWO ARE CORALATIONS OF EACH OTHER. I believe the original 12 tribes were scattered among all nations. I believe the Book of Daniel to be a coralation of the Book of Revelation.
Not all Jews are Israel’i ,and not all Israel’i
are Jews.
Peace , A humble slave to my Master ,
the Lord Jesus Christ
Matthew 12 :31 And so I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.
Romans 1:16 -I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.
No I do not believe in the Greek Testament. The Hebrew Scriptures are it for me; One G-d, One Revelation, One people, that’s it! Again, why is G-d not concerned about Christian nations such as Sweden and Finland where the majority of people are now atheists???
Please read Deuteronomy 33.
And G-d says in Torah, if you follow a foreign being one that your fathers DID NOT KNOW, you will be accursed by HaShem. I will take Torah and run with it.
This is the answer to all of those who keep asking why bad things happen.
Which means there is no point to your argument, NONE!
It’s no wonder God doesn’t kill us all. He is merciful to only send us warnings of wrath.
There is no debate…And please, don’t threatened by the Torah, if anything bless by it. He is the same God then as He is now. Shalom..
Excuse me? Christians are threatened by the Torah. I love Torah, why would I be threatened by it? G-d is the same today as yesterday, hence why the Greek Testament is false. G-d does not give Torah and then a thousand years later say, “Sike, you don’t need Torah, believe in a man.”
nah…not what John Piper mean…God has able to be kill those he wants according His time to time….
Your right HE does not give the torah then says sike, he furfills it just as HE said HE would and sends the messiah and again man rejects whom HE sends, and read my comment again! I said you should not threaten BY the torah, meaning you should not threaten people by it, not you yourself should not feel threaten by it.
Very nice video quality.
scary
Yes, the tornado that ripped through your property and state on 7/24/08 and did extensive damage was indeed a direct act of God. God is here ALL THE TIME and is in control of EVERYTHING. You say you are a Christian but you aren’t getting it. Psalm 104:3,4
God created every human being on this planet and has chosen the day of their death right down to the minute. I know you don’t believe it. It’s obvious. But if you don’t believe it then you don’t believe the Bible and you can’t possibly be a true Christian. You are talking to someone who has read the Bible at least 10 times in her life and knows her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Stop pretending to be a Christian.
Sorry, ran out of room there…Stop pretending to be a Christian and either choose to be one or don’t. Have you ever read the book of John in the Bible?
That’s what you said last time. My point is that you claim to be a Christian but you don’t believe what the Bible says is true. And those of us who know our Bibles and our Father in heaven can spot those of you who don’t a mile away.
BTW, Have you ever read the book of John in the Bible?
P.S. If you haven’t read it, you should pick it up and read it just to spite me.
I recommend NIV translation or NKJ. They are the easiest to read.
LOL wtf? disasters happen becus they happen. sometimes they come by surprise and sometimes they come unpurpose. lol homosexuality is not a choice. thats all u need to know. as long as all christian realise this i think they will ever accept gays. simple! >_>
Likewise addiction is not a choice after you decide to use drugs. Once you surrender your authority to sin then sin is in the drivers seat. But we can love the addict without cosigning for the addiction. The addict uses because it feels good to them. But just because it feels good does not mean that it is not a destructive force in their life. Trying to justify it prolongs recovery. When they want sobriety more then the drug they start to get well and regain the ability to make a new choice.
addiction is not “likewise”. Because the person is well aware that the drug doesnt make that person who he/she is. it makes them who they are NOT. there4 with drugs it IS a choice to b who you truely are, or who u truly are not. WITH HOMOSEXUALITY, the homosexual is fully aware that being gay is WHO HE/SHE IS. admitting and accepting one as a homosexual with only make that person be satisfied with WHO THEY ARE. they never wanted to be gay they, they just are. It doesnt make them who they are not
Who would ever CHOOSE to be gay?! You think homosexuals enjoy being bashed up?! You think they enjoy it when people on TV or RADIO tell everyone that they’re wrong and they are going to hell??You think they enjoy being discriminated against on a daily basis?Having people like this in the video talking negatively about you is NOT fun!!
BTW, this people in the video look SERIOUSLY SERIOUSLY brain-washed!! Disasters happen, Death Happens, SHIT happens! DEAL WITH IT!
I am sure lots of kids want to be drug addicts when they grow up. But the point you are missing here is that we all have the same problem, SIN! No matter how you justify it, no matter what your brand is, we are all on the same boat. Some people are willing to admit the ship is going down and some people are rearranging the deck chairs. Anything we put ahead of God is a sin, doesn’t matter if it is sex, drugs, rock and roll, or water color painting. The message is to Repaint and Thin no more!
