    Physical Christianity

    Of course, if a person is capable of doing "works" and does not do them, then s/he is being selfish. Loving your neighbor does not involve just being kind and praying for that person, but giving them whatever assistance that s/he needs. On the other hand, if all a person can do is pray for...

    Physical Christianity

    I agree on point #1. I disagree on point #2. You love your enemy because of the new vision that God has given you, not because of fear of punishment. Re point#3: Jesus wasn't in competition; He was stating the truth. The people that passed by the injured Samaritan were Jews. The parable...

    Jesus thought polygamy is OK!

    So, it strikes you as arrogant. Who are you to judge me? I find that your judgement of me is arrogant. So, why don't you show a little humility? See how worthless this type of discussion is? Now, do you want to discuss the issue or devolve the discussion into ad hominem criticism?

    Which text from the Christian Bible uniquely proves that Jesus is Almighty God?

    If you won't discuss the issue, it reveals a lot about who you are. Are you capable of discussing the subject or not?

    A Christian believes --------------------------------?

    If you read Hebrews 11:1, you will see that your definition of (Christian) faith is wrong. I quoted your tagline because you do not see God anywhere.

    Which text from the Christian Bible uniquely proves that Jesus is Almighty God?

    I suggest that you make an effort to understand Christianity. Discard your "common sense" approach and let God and/or His word (the Bible) show you the truth. P.S. I suggest you write "more careful" ;)

    A Christian believes --------------------------------?

    Judging by what you write, you do NOT understand Christian teaching. God must reveal the truth to you. Without His opening your "spiritual eyes", you will remain "blind".

    Jesus thought polygamy is OK!

    My mother was a Jew, as was her ancestors for GENERATIONS. So, I am a Jew, just like Moses, Yeshua, et al. Is your faith REAL FAITH, i.e., knowledge, or pseudo-faith, i.e., hope?

    Jesus thought polygamy is OK!

    Okay, here is what I know. I have been married for 56 years. I am certain that I love my wife and I am certain that she loves me. I certain of what I do not see! I am sure that we will remain married until the end of our life together. That is how Hebrews 11:1 should be understood! My faith...

    A Christian believes --------------------------------?

    Oh, the New Testament was written in Greek? I had no idea! The long and short of it is that you have to understand Christian doctrine, which clearly you don't. You have a predetermined mindset, because of your Judaism, to misinterpret the New Testament. You have to rely on Strongs to explain...

    Jesus thought polygamy is OK!

    @IndigoChild5559, I challenge you to read Hebrews, particularly chapter 11, which describes those Hebrews who had true faith and lived by it: Abel, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, the people of Israel(!), and Rahab. Also mentioned are Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah...

    Jesus thought polygamy is OK!

    No. Unlike yourself, I understand context. Do you understand what eisegesis means?

    A Christian believes --------------------------------?

    Unlike yourself, I know what faith truly means. I don't need to consult a dictionary when the Bible gives a clear definition.

    Jesus thought polygamy is OK!

    You clearly do NOT understand my arguments. If you did, you would accept Yeshua, who fulfilled ALL the law's requirements, as your Savior.

    Jesus thought polygamy is OK!

    You are really confused. You clearly don't understand Christian doctrine. The Tanakh is based on God's law, but Christ fulfilled all the requirements of the law, so it doesn't apply to those of us who have accepted Yeshuah Hamashiach as our Savior. He took the punishment for our sin...

    Jesus thought polygamy is OK!

    John was testifying about who Jesus was. That has nothing to do with repentance. Jesus takes away the sin of the world! Does your opinion about arrogance apply to yourself or just others? :astonished: BTW, don't post a part of the Bible if you don't understand it. You look foolish!

    Why should anyone believe you?

    A Christian believes --------------------------------?

    Sorry, but I believe the Bible, not you. How many times must I post this verse??? "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for, being convinced of what we do not see." Hebrews 11:1, NET BEING SURE!!! Plain English! P.S. Does your Rabbi also deny that God exists???
