Love of the common people

[Sketcher]

How can 2.2 billion people on this earth believe that Jesus spirit lives among them, that he has given them authority over all thing's, and spiritual gifts to aid humanity. But these believers still live in societies plagued by poverty.

I think Jesus closing words to you was "The poor I leave you with"

It's a known fact that 50℅ of America's are Christian, but poverty is still an issue there? Why?

Do you want a real answer?

 

[Fear2Believe]

No.

Why not?

 

[Fear2Believe]

Do you want a real answer?

Sure.

 

[Resha Caner]

Why not?

Whatever you hope to gain from it would not be accomplished.

 

[Fear2Believe]

Whatever you hope to gain from it would not be accomplished.

Why's that? Because of what Jesus commanded? The golden rule, and all of that?

Or because of something else.

I suspected you were digging for something like that. If your stated desire is true that we should get to know each other, why are you trying to pick a fight?

No, my experience with PTSD is simply this: because society in general has such a poor understanding of PTSD they frequently do things to trigger the person. Though not the fault of the person with PTSD, they react in a way that makes it worse. They make it hard to defend them.

So, if you took revenge, you would either get in trouble and make your stress worse, or you would just move on to someone else who causes you stress.

Don't bring my PTSD into the equation, I've been too nice to these kinds of people for far to long.

Are they infringing a code or law?

 

[Fear2Believe]

Are they infringing a code or law?

Indeed he is, but did you assume that the police would do anything? Did you assume that the real-estate dealt with this bloke? No one's done a damn thing about him for 5 year's.

So you tell me, if the authorities care little, then what's a man's options?

You're not above the law. The law is your option.

There is no law, I thought Jesus pointed that out to people two thousand year's ago.

You didn't like what I said. That's understandable. It's frustrating the world is full of angry, hurtful people. Getting rid of them will never work. Learning to cope is the only answer.

Ponder on my words for a while. Why do you think law's exist? People still break them, don't they. Can you have a world without law's? Most will say no, and how? Here's how. Suspended belief, because it's things people believe that they do not actually know (Nor can prove) that create a splintered moral society.

I think most people on this planet (Not excluding myself) grew up only believing that it was immoral to steal, or murder, or rape, and so on. But the question is do they know it is? Because believing in a set of law's doesn't prevent people from breaking them.

We need something better than belief

 

[Sketcher]

Sure.

Christianity isn't a means to get rich. And if it were, it wouldn't have the true devotion that it requires.

It's fair to ask, "What is the purpose of the law?" It's a good question.

I, for one, never expected everyone would obey the law, so for me the failure to obey by some people is no reason to discard it.
