You would tell Jesus to take a hike?:eek: What kind of Christian are you?
One that knows better than to assume a deity has visited me and told me Valentine was his servant.

Jim Jones got away with that, Joseph Smith got away with that ... I know better.

You might fall for it, but I won't.

So if Jesus told you something you didn't like, you would deny him? I seem to remember what happened to the last person that did that.

So when Jesus returns, are you even going to bother to listen to what He has to say?

And by the same token, if you want to use John 2 to justify recreational drinking, I say there's a problem somewhere.

And by the same token, if you want to use Genesis 18:8 to justify recreational dairy consumption, I say there's a problem somewhere.

You mistake my buddy AVET. If "Jesus" came down and told AVET that his interpretation of scripture was wrong, AVET would know that this "Jesus" was a fake. Got it now?

Mark 13:21 And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there; believe him not:

I'm not Pentecostal or Charismatic.

So if "God comes to me" ... forget it.

When I go to Him though, it will be a different story.

After the Rapture, I'm sure God will be setting me straight on some things I've said wrong.

No, in fact that is wrong. It shows that root beer is non-alcoholic, nothing more.

No, because that that qualifier word "root" makes all the difference. Why do you think that root beer is call "root" beer instead of simply "beer"? For that matter, why do you think that drink such as O'doul's is specifically marketed as a "non-alcoholic beer"?

Root beer and ginger ale both started as mildly alcoholic drinks. They use the exact same fermentation process as beer. However, because the brew medium is so astringent the yeast dies out after getting to around 1.5% ABV.

If the tribulation starts and there's no rapture (unbiblical doctrine btw), what will you do then?

God is only allowed to play by your rules, eh?
