    Boundaries of satan?

    Where in the scripture does it say that God sets boundaries against satan? Are those boundaries real? Looks like Job suggests a few, but we know from daily life, that the devil can kill you too, or take over your mind even from infancy, so there seems to be no boundary to the devil. So...

    Is there ever a situation where the means justify the end?

    In that script, Jesus' enemies are saying that one man should die so that the nation perish not. This answers the question, that the end never justifies the means. Murder is somewhat light because it can be seen as both mercy and a new start. But torture belongs here too which is a lot...

    It does not contradict the Eucharist. So not theologically impossible.

    catholics, i am a protestant, i want to hear you

    It is not only the Holy Eucarist that is above science. You can also look at for example when Christ stopped the waves and placed the whole ship 5 miles away to the harbor at an instance, when His desiplses asked Him if Hhe doesn't care that they will drown. Placing science above God is...

    catholics, i am a protestant, i want to hear you

    Too many things to answer, but I will try inlined. Biblical reference, plus the purification of the soul is a common theme, not only eternal damnation. For example, look at the conversation between the Holy Mary and Jesus at the wedding before His first miracle. Also, revelations with woman...

    Eucharist: the power of spilt blood?

    I am not familiar with all the various denomination beliefs. To me it looks like real blood the completes the cup exercise, which starts with the wine at dinner and ends with the blood next afternoon.

    Eucharist: the power of spilt blood?

    Here is another possibility. The devil is an imitator. A day after Jesus was hanged on the Cross, the devil hangs Judas on his "cross" that is some crooked tree. But the bread that Jesus puts into the hand of Judas directly, puts a different substance into the imitation, if this is an...

    Eucharist: the power of spilt blood?

    Yes indeed, that is the responsibility of Judas, and the Bible doesn't say if he actually did that last step. A possible clue is that some of the 4 Gospels don't mention a rope, so judas has cut himself which may mean his motivation to do so.

    Eucharist: the power of spilt blood?

    Here is another interesting aspect. At the last supper, Jesus told Judas, to do it quickly. But at that time, the devil was already inside judas, because Jesus has already given him the bread. So that conversation was between Jesus and the devil, not judas. Interesting is, that Jesus...

    Yes, everything that I write, I write it out of what I read in the Bible.

    Eucharist: the power of spilt blood?

    Jesus also says, that for such a man, it is better never have been born. So, are we discovering, that in addition to the choice of being reborn in Babtism, we also have the choice of being unborn?

    Eucharist: the power of spilt blood?

    Yes, and that different effect is the cases of Judas, and the interesting completion of the Bible's Eucharist story. Let's discover this final part of the Eucharist.

    How sinful is Judas Iscariot?

    Yes, and it is scary. Would be good to know, how to unharden a heart before the devil finds it and uses it for his pleasure. If un hardening is at all possible. Hmmm.

    Eucharist: the power of spilt blood?

    When Jesus institutes the Holy Eucarist at the Last Supper, He puts the bread in the hand of Judas, none of the other 11, then goes and spills His Blood on the Ccross, to complete the cup. Then this concludes with the spilling of Judas' blood, which Judas wanted to avoid with his hanging rope...

    How sinful is Judas Iscariot?

    You may be right, not everyone will go to the hot place. And yes, judas' heart was deceitful which made him a useful tool. It may still be interesting, what drove this, and it looks like it was the hardening of his heart.

    How sinful is Judas Iscariot?

    Very interesting sermon! Not much revealed about the character of judas though, because judas is not analyzed, only observed in this sermon. I would risk to say, that the remorse of judas is the most interesting part. That is when the devil leaves him. Between the last supper and the...

    How sinful is Judas Iscariot?

    This is very interesting. So, this may mean, that upon your birth you are judas Iscariot and everybody needs at least one person who puts Christ into his life. If such a person is missing, then birth is useless?
