Comment on Millennialism: Pre-Messianic Christianity by DeWayne Benson

DeWayne Benson — Thu, 28 Feb 2013 00:05:22 +0000

Concerning the Word (not text) of God, it may appear i am stringent and unbending (of opinion), however we are admonished to become mature and in unity together in the word, prepared to answer as needed.
What I hear to often is, “let us agree to disagree”, this if anything allowing and permitting added false teaching and prophecy… becoming accepted by the immature and eventually the church.
The bible is quite clear that continuing in these end days, more and more leading astray will occur, even among the elect (if possible?). If truth is to be found, it would be better losing friendships, than allowing recognized error to continue out of fear and trepidation.

As far as the redeemed and unredeemed (saved/unsaved), this appears answered within each persons lifetime, verse saying that as God ‘forsees’ our lifetime, of those He foresees He ‘predestines’.
It is certain there comes a time as described in Rev 10:13 “If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity he will go. if anyone is to be killed by the sword, by the sword he will be killed.”
I believe this explains saved/unsaved during this lifetime.

Interesting. If one insists on erring on the side of life, then it would seem the Christian ethic would demand that to include all life. The same argument would seem to apply to capital punishment. …

It would seem that since the vast majority of anti-abortion/pro-life proponents scoff at global warming and support capital punishment the “erring on the side of life” argument must be a ruse.

Comment on Why in the world would Mexicans dislike the United States? by xxxx

xxxx — Fri, 22 Jun 2012 01:56:01 +0000

Mexicans invaded the southwest just as Americans did. It was not the Mexican’s ancestral land, it was the American Indians’. The U.S.A. has claimed the land for longer than Mexico did. The claim that Mexico has a right to it is just an excuse to pit the Mexicans against us. They come up here and actively attack the U.S. culture and are openly racist against the “gringos” without any apparent shame.
