Creating a New Nation! The New C.S.A. (2)

[GrayCat]

You didn't answer my Question, sheild, several pages back.



Give a reason, please, *why* the Nation should be based off the Bible.

Preferably an objective reason, not along the lines of "because you think so".

USMC4 sounds like he's related to SoF...

 

[ShieldOFaith]

Really SoF, stop with the whole "God says I'm right" routine, 58 pages later, its' getting tiring.

As I've said on many other threads:

It is possible for both God and man to think you're being a psycho.

There will NEVER be a time when you will be able to fly into the Sun on your own power. You were not designed by GOD to fly; let alone fly all the way to the Sun and go into the Sun.

This is absolute fact. I am 100% right! If you say different, you are 100% wrong.

This is a truth. The truth is that you can not fly into the Sun.

Truth; GOD has already spoken and His Word is eternal. I am doctrinally correct. You may not like that; but that is your problem, not mine. If you don't like it, read the Word of God and see for yourself.

It is not my fault that you do not like the fact that GOD gave the government the right to execute Capital Punishment. It has nothing to do with me. It is your fault, not mine. I am explaining very clearly that Capital Punishment is of GOD. It is very easy to do. I have done it.

As far a psychos go; maybe you should look in the mirror. It might be you who is in a psychosis. If you want rabid violent men running around and raping and murdering our women and children; and do not want them put down, then I would have to direct you to a mirror.

I am right. I am 100% correct; because GOD is 100% correct and I am only speaking and repeating what HE HAS ALREADY SAID.

Thank you.

SOLA SCRIPTURA.

The Holy Bible is superior to all other writings on this earth. The 66 books of the Holy Bible are God breathed. GOD the creator of the entire universe is the One who spoke it. Hence, it is absolute truth! It is absolutely perfect and holy.

The only man to ever live a perfect life, who died and rose up on His own power from the dead; said these words:

[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica] 4 But He answered and said, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.' --Matthew 4

THAT IS WHY WE SHOULD BASE OUR NATION UPON THE HOLY BIBLE.

It is not my fault you are a fanatic who can't be reasoned with.

How many times must you be told this: No one is against murderers and rapists being punished, what is the issue is that you advocate killing gays for being gay and killing disobeidient children. How would you go about tracking down "Disobeidient Children",anyway? Are you going to execute over 90% of the CSA's teenagers.

Prove it. Governments actually need to derive their legitimacy from something tangiably right, not mad gibberings from bronze age Judea. If you want proof, compare the stability and prosperity of secular Turkey with pretty much anywhere else in the Middle East.

I am explaining very clearly that Capital Punishment is of GOD. It is very easy to do. I have done it.

Am i reading this correctly?? You're saying Capital punishment is easy to do, and you know this because You've Done It???


I'd like an explanation of that, please... And some verses showing just where God tells Humans it's ok for them to put eachother to death.

Since you refuse to deal with the text; your words are null and void. All the words you just typed are null and void of substance. [FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]

In other words, you're incapable of holding an open debate. You remind me of a child plugging his ears and singing "la-la-la-I-can't-HEAR-you!" when someone says something he doesn't like. Refusing to address an opponent's arguments means you lose the debate, in case you never took a forensics class.

SoF, you might want to follow that sage advice about how remaining silent and being thought a fool is better than speaking up and removing all doubt. You underline and boldface your intellectual and moral bankruptcy with every post you make.

And since Biblical doctrine simply says that everyone is inherently evil, your goal of the C.S.A. is to keep everyone in line by spreading terror.

Once again you fail at correct biblical doctrine.

Yes, we are all sinners. Hence the doctrine of Original Sin. However, that is why Messiah came down and died on the cross and rose up the third day. He now can cleanse you of your sins and make you Born Again (John 3). When you become born again, GOD makes you a new creature and you have the Holy Spirit of God living inside you!

[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. --2 Cor. 5

If we are born again and are a new creature we now can live by the Spirit of GOD.

<NOW PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE TRY TO GRASP THIS>

[/FONT][FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica] 1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus,* who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, 4 that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. 5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. 6 For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. 8 So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God. 9 But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica] 10 And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 11 But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you. 12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors--not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. 13 For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. 14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. 15 For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father." 16 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, --Romans 8[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]AWESOME!!! [/FONT]


[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]So if we live by the Spirit and walk in the Spirit, we will not be running around murdering, raping, kidnapping...ect..[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]<READ AND UNDERSTAND>[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." 15 But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another! 16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. 24 And those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. --Galatians 5[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]YEEHAH!!! NO DO YOU GET IT???[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]In a Christian Nation filled with Christians, we would not need to be hanging everybody!!! HELLO!

This is what I've been saying all along. In a country like the C.S.A. there would be no great need for mass executions. There would be very little crime. There would be no need for all of your "Nazi" fantasies.

ALL THE PEOPLE WHO KEEP COMPARING THE C.S.A. TO NAZI GERMANY ARE COMPLETELY WRONG AND HAVE NOT READ THESE SCRIPTURES.

There will NEVER be a time when you will be able to fly into the Sun on your own power. You were not designed by GOD to fly; let alone fly all the way to the Sun and go into the Sun.

This is absolute fact. I am 100% right! If you say different, you are 100% wrong.

Strawman.

Truth; GOD has already spoken and His Word is eternal. I am doctrinally correct. You may not like that; but that is your problem, not mine. If you don't like it, read the Word of God and see for yourself.

I'm going to put this as simply as possible - this is YOUR interpretation. There is no justification for taking the Bible literally - the Bible says it's inspired by God. That is all. Nowhere does it say it is to be taken literally.

Not that you ARE actually taking it literally, otherwise you'd have the testicular fortitude to actually answer Nathan Poe's points.

Also you should consider that even the literalist Christians on here disagree with you. If the Bible has one perfect interpretation (which I'm sure it does, but we're far too human to comprehend it perfectly) then there should be more people agreeing with you.

As I said before - you're not being given a hard time because everyone here is against God.

It's because Occam's razor won about 80 pages ago, and rather than booking yourself in for some much needed therapy time, you've dodged people's questions, insulted their faith and moved the goalposts to another galaxy.

It is not my fault that you do not like the fact that GOD gave the government the right to execute Capital Punishment. It has nothing to do with me. It is your fault, not mine. I am explaining very clearly that Capital Punishment is of GOD. It is very easy to do. I have done it.

It gave ONE civilisation that AGREED to a now COMPLETED covenant the right.

Again, maybe you should consider that you're incorrect given the huge numbers of Christians disagreeing with you.

As far a psychos go; maybe you should look in the mirror. It might be you who is in a psychosis. If you want rabid violent men running around and raping and murdering our women and children; and do not want them put down, then I would have to direct you to a mirror.

You were the one who moved that goalpost, stop misrepresenting people. You also clearly have no notion of forgiveness or repentance if this is how casually you treat human life.

In other words, totally unfit to run a country.

I am right. I am 100% correct; because GOD is 100% correct and I am only speaking and repeating what HE HAS ALREADY SAID.

As you and ever other tinpot dictator in history have claimed. Why don't you see how they're doing?

Here is my argument that is correct and Biblical and can not be defeated.

NWM, if one is Born Again, he/she is a new creature.

[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. --2 Cor. 5

If we are born again and are a new creature we now can live by the Spirit of GOD.

GOD is always right.

[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica] 16 For we did not follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." 18 And we heard this voice which came from heaven when we were with Him on the holy mountain. [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica] 19 And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts; 20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, 21 for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. --2 Peter 1[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]"THAT NO PROPHECY OF SCRIPTURE IS OF ANY PRIVATE INTERPRETATION"[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]Hence, this is completely true and you can not do anything about it.[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]1 Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. 2 Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same. 4 For he is God's minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God's minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil. 5 Therefore you must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for conscience' sake. 6 For because of this you also pay taxes, for they are God's ministers attending continually to this very thing. --Romans 13[/FONT]

Capital punishment is not mentioned here. Only "wrath."

Also, this only applies to governments which are divinely inspired.

Yours is not.

[TheNewWorldMan]

MUSTUS TRYUS BETTERUS.

Not a chance...the throttle of SoF's brain is as far open as it's going to go--the lawnmower engine therein is already perilously close to overheating.

And no, this actually is not a flame. How many times has SoF been asked simple, direct questions and failed to give any response beyond cut-and-paste and "God is always right?" Given the number of times SoF has failed to answer the direct, easily understandable questions put to him, I must conclude he is not intellectually capable of understanding the questions, analyzing them, and composing a coherent, original response.

I'll restate the questions:

1. Will the OT be the sole source of law and be followed to the letter in the C.S.A.? This question should be answerable with a simple "yes" or "no," as either C.S.A. law = OT, or C.S.A. law &#8800; OT.

2. If the answer to #1 is no, then on what basis and authority does SoF deviate from OT law?

Very simple, direct questions, which SoF has thus far refused to provide a clear, direct answer to. This is, inasmuch as I recall, the fourth time I have posed these questions. Variants have already been posed by others. If SoF cannot provide clear, concise, understandable, original answers, he is not intellectually qualified to run a hamburger stand let alone a country.

If you want to split up the nation, and create a racist, sexist theocracy, how would you aim to cut up the pie in terms of the deliniations of whom should live where?

Obviously gays would not be welcome in your country. But what would you do to create a separate country?

[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]GOD is speaking here through the Apostle Paul. God is very plainly telling you that you are to be subject to the governing authorities.

The sword was the instrument of death for a Roman citizen. Roman citizens were not killed like slaves or conquered enemies. These could be thrown to the lions, crucified, thrown into gladiatorial combat...ect.. Roman citizens were executed via cutting off of the head.

The government is not at the same level as GOD. It is only GOD'S minister.

The funniest thing is, that we arguing against his childish idea of a mythical nation. I mean, it's not like there is any way for him to actually make it happen. It's just his little dream, let him have it.

We might also try and find him a small square of land so he would feel happy, something like a sandbox on a playground. At lest he would calm down a little.

All he ever does is Copy-Paste Bible and Caps Lock Attack. I'm not even sure that he even reads the passages he is copying. Just a child, really.
