Well, IMHO Billy Graham and many other Christian TV Evangelicals are dumber than rocks.
Now is that a way to speak about someone as great as Dr. Billy Graham? He has been praised by about a dozen of our ex-presidents and over the past 60 years followed by billions of people, and this is your summery of such a GREAT man as he, .. that he is dumber than rock?
I just pointed out that even as great a man as Dr. Billy Graham is, he can be deceived by Divine Insight, which if he would have only listened to that 'still small voice' of Gods Holy Spirit would have woken him from his slumber, and he would have realized that divinations are from Satan, .. not God.
This tragedy is no different than Christ's parable of the 10 Virgins, 5 wise and 5 foolish. Dr. Grahams oil ran out, and now he is running to see if he could by some oil with this last Revival. He is hoping that by preaching a "Wide Gate" where not only many, but EVERYONE could get through and into heaven, that he may show the 'world' that he has more compassion than even God Himself.
Divine Insight wrote:The very idea that someone actually believes that they are worshiping Jesus but they aren't and they just don't know it is the absolute stupidity evangelical claim that can possibly be made. All this does it expose the utter stupidity of the evangelist who takes this position.
I don't know if it's stupidity, or just stubbornness, I think it is just pride. I have written letters and shown multitude of Bible quotes to show my Filipino wife's friends and relatives that spending all their money (the little that they have) and time worshiping an idol of this "Mother of all gods Mary" is an abomination in the sight of the Lord, .. but they would not make that step to open their Bibles and read it for themselves. Instead, they were deeply offended that I would quote such Scripture against their dearest mediator, and the source of my quotes 'the Bible' remains adorned on an alter in their homes. So you tell me?
Divine Insight wrote:No sincere decent person could be trying to worship Jesus Christ and not know that they are accidentally worshiping Satan instead. That is just plain stupid to even suggest such a thing.
You make it seem As-If this might be news to you, but have you heard of the
anti-Christ? Yep, .. he has the world fooled preaching from the Bible, yet having them giving him;
"the Devine-god-of-this-world" all the credit. Not only that, but they go and get their doctorates in Divinity, and become proud "Diviners" for this imposter. So I don't know whether to call it stupidity or what?
Also, I don't quite understand why you would call my hard work in revealing this paradox "stupid to even suggest"?
Hey, .. wait a minute, .. you're not one of those mediums that divine also, now are you "Divine Insight"?
Divine insight wrote:What might be possible is that such people are actually quite insincere and only "pretending" to worship Jesus. But such people would KNOW it, they wouldn't be ignorant of what they are doing as you claim that Billy Graham suggests.
Well, .. instead of Dr. Graham repenting and admitting to the whole world that he has been identifying and giving credit to the wrong god all this time (who by the way rewarded him and his family with great wealth, .. earthly riches), and that he has been encouraging and influencing billions likewise, he tries to get the peoples approval by widening the road and the gate into Heaven. If you remember King Saul did that same thing, and you know how disappointed God became with him, right?

IMHO this is nothing more than an extremely hateful accusation made toward Mother Teresa. It is extremely judgmental of her and even suggests that she never even opened the Bible.
To make such an accusation against her beyond arrogance, IMHO, and crosses the boundary into hate speech directed specifically against her.
Your dedication to Mother Teresa and the Catholic Church is well noted, and so is your Divine Insight. I said:
"she should have at least opened and read the Bible and see if Jesus approved such actions or not" .. correct? I never said she NEVER opened the Bible, but that she should have opened it to search whether God approved idol-worship or not?
Please my friend, don't confuse my 'confidence' with arrogance. You are far more brilliant than me who am an unschooled, abused, hurting man working hard to stand on the Word of God, the "Rock" my Lord Jesus Christ.
Divine Insight wrote:I can't believe that you would even pass such a judgement on another person whilst you are claiming to be a "Christian". It makes me seriously wonder if you have ever opened a Bible.
If I didn't open the Bible and quote it often, you wouldn't have to cut-it-out of our debates, .. right? There is POWER in them Words, .. it is like a two-edged-sword that cuts through bone and marrow, .. does it not DI?
Divine Insight wrote:I understand that Christianity does create many bigoted and hateful people, but I'm not sure how it manages to do that. Where in the Bible does Jesus ever teach anyone to judge other people in such a hateful way that you have judged Mother Teresa?
I personally don't see your views as being representative of Jesus or anything even remotely close to Jesus.
Yes, and I have written many debates and made many notes on the history of the Christian religion, and the many Devine-gods they worship, and all the anti-Christ doctrine they teach and preach which created
"many bigoted and hateful people" in the world, just as you said.
Also, which Jesus should my views be a representative of? Your Divine-god Jesus? Or is it the Muslim prophet with a patch on one eye Jesus? Or is it the Mormo Jesus? There are so many anti-Jesus's out there, which one am I not a representative of? I hope none of those, but only One, the Son of the Living God Jesus.

But it's ok for you to murder the character of Mother Teresa in Jesus' name?
You aren't getting anywhere with me. If you represent Christianity I renounce it all the more.
Yes, you renounce my words because they reflect the true Christ, that 'Truth' that burns the worldly-mans conscience. I know you don't hate me my friend, you resent what is IN me, you resent what I stand for. But again here is my consolation:

Yeah right. And according to Islam there is only one door to Heaven and that is to follow the teachings of Muhammad and the Qur'an.
Yes, but that's just one, .. there are literally tens of thousands of doors, roads, stairways and doctrines to heaven besides the ONE revealed through Jesus Christ in the Bible.
Divine Insight wrote:All you are doing is preaching a different version of the same hate cult.
Using Jesus as fodder to condemn others.
I try to follow in His footsteps, to reveal Him the True Light of the world, and not to condemn. As my Lord said:
John 12:46-50
46 I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness. 47 And if anyone hears My words and does not believe, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world. 48 He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him — the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day. 49 For I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak. 50 And I know that His command is everlasting life. Therefore, whatever I speak, just as the Father has told Me, so I speak."
NKJV
Neither do I speak on my own authority, but quote His Words, and reflect as though through a mirror Jesus;
1 Cor 13:12
12 For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.
NKJV
Divine Insight wrote:This is precisely why so many non-Christians would love to see Christianity wiped off the face of the planet. It's nothing but a hate cult that uses Jesus as fodder for hatred.
You seem to only speak of hate, yet I keep quoting love and the truth.
1 Cor 13:13
13 And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
NKJV
You see my friend, it is this pure love of Christ that non-Believers want to wipe off the face of the planet, not the Christian religion. I mean who do you think is going to do most of the 'wiping out'? Christianity have become the most powerful religion in the world, and it is because they are the most dedicated to their religion and their gods, and the greatest of those is Mammon.
Jesus preached love, to love your enemy, and to do good to them that hate us, to turn the other cheek, .. not kill, torture and rape those that wouldn't accept Jesus the Lamb!
2 Cor 4:2-6
2 But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.
3 But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, 4 whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them. 5 For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your bondservants for Jesus' sake.

If my boss wasn't bright enough to be sure that I was sent to the correct field in the first place then it would be entirely his fault.
Such a "boss" would not be my "boss" because I wouldn't work for anyone that utterly stupid.
I see, so if you go out of your way and start plowing and seeding your bosses enemies field, it is not you who are stupid, but your boss??
Now if he paid you, then of course he would be stupid.
And don't worry, He is a thoughtful Boss, he gives each worker a Book of instructions that He expects them to read a little of each day, .. so they would not do something stupid like work in His enemies field all day, not alone the rest of their life! And if anyone cannot read, He gave teachers, counselors, instructors, everything anyone could ever need to make SURE no one wasted even a minute in the enemies field. So no one will have an excuse on Pay-Day. If you dedicated your life working for the Enemy, the wage will reflect your labor. The wage for those who worked for the Lord in His field, Eternal Life in His Kingdom, but those who chose despite of all the instruction and management to work in the enemies field, on Pay-day:

If there is only One God, then all religions worship the same God. So for you to try to use Jesus as fodder to pass judgments on others who don't believe like you fails once again.
I said it a hundred times, .. and I'll say it again: "You will never find the God of the Bible, the Great 'I Am Who I Am' in any man made religion and their man made gods. Why would I serve some man-made hypothetical god when I have the real Creator to worship? I don't judge all these religions, the very Word of God will judge them, Jesus will judge them.
Matt 7:22-23
22 Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' 23 And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'

This is why I pray for you my friend, that you would humble yourself enough and repent so God would remove that veil from your heart/soul and mind.

You are only demonstrating to everyone precisely how disgusting Christianity can truly be.
See, that is true freedom of choice from a Loving Creator, where tens of thousands of different mythologies can be created in. My God would never put a gun to your head to come back to Him, or a sword to your neck. He says
"Here I am, I'm not far from anyone of you, you wondered off, now come and find me!"
"Nope, .. not that way son, .. aaah.. stop, Stop, .. STOP not that way either, now that was close, and very dangerous! ..

Luke 15:20-24
20 "And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. 21 And the son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight, and am no longer worthy to be called your son.'
22 "But the father said to his servants, 'Bring out the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet. 23 And bring the fatted calf here and kill it, and let us eat and be merry; 24 for this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.'

I would never associate your view with those of the Jesus dipicted in the Bible.
I know my friend, .. I can only dream of being and walking like them. There are just too many things wrong with me, if only I had the full power of Jesus Spirit in me I would not offend so much. I would walk in
love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control .. and I lack awfully in every one of those traits. This is why I keep pointing to Jesus, NOT me.

That would never happen to me because I wouldn't play hide-and-seek with my children and they would know who I am.
Just remember it was your kids who started this hide-and-seek, to a point they ignored all your calls and wondered off. You know where they're at, you keep whispering in their ear: "hey.. daddy is right here .. " but they keep ignoring you and being really rude.

Moreover, even after that, if my children were still unhappy with me, I would want to know why. I would be concerned with what I am doing wrong. I wouldn't just automatically be so arrogant as to blame them for not loving me. If they aren't loving me I'd be intelligent enough to realize that it's probably something I'm doing wrong.
What?? Do you even read what you write in all your posts? Don't you see your rebellious responses on 'good and evil' about laws, about rules, about absolutes? You portray the perfect rebellious child, BECAUSE you know so much of the Bible, and because God made you so smart.

Luke 16:22-31
22 So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man (or wise man) also died and was buried. 23 And being in torments in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
24 "Then he cried and said, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.' 25 But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted and you are tormented. 26 And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those from there pass to us.'
27 "Then he said, 'I beg you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house, 28 for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, lest they also come to this place of torment.' 29 Abraham said to him, 'They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.' 30 And he said, 'No, father Abraham; but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.' 31 But he said to him, 'If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead.'"
