Thank God you only know 1% of what I do And I don´t see the link that if He hates what I do, then he must hate what others do. Do all people do exactly what I am doing all the time? My mom is cooking dinner for me right now (thanx mom!) and I´m behind the computer at the moment... Hm... two different things... How do you explain THAT
BM, I dont know what you do. It is said generally. It is difficult for a person like you to understand certain things. As somewhere Armegon or Si-- may have mentioned - you think of yourself as a perfect and ideal citizen - so in your own eyes you are sinless. Therefore, you dont need and repentance or forgiveness from God.
It is striking to see how all you can talk about comes from the Bible.
This is the only thing I trust and believe because it makes sense. If it didnt it would be just another religious book with good morals included.
I usually try to use my (God given) common sense. The Bible is not an exclusive guide to life.
That God given common sense must bring you back to His Word. It is designed so. Bible is not a guide book. It is a book to learn about God.
It doesn´t state an explanation for every possible thing in life.
It does.
It leaves room for you to use your brain in every day circumstances, like, for example, the million ways in which you can hurt people.
Two main messages of Bible: love your God (with all your heart, mind, strength and attention) and your neighbour.
It doesn´t have to say "By the way, it´s not nice to destroy graves" because it assumes that people can make their own smart decisions about it.
It says: Barba, stop making up.
Does it say anything about torturing kittens? Or about chewing off the toes of living people?
It says: I repeat, Barba, stop making silly statements and seek His Kingdom.
