December 2, 20232 yr The Parable of the Sower. On another occasion he began to teach by the sea.* A very large crowd gathered around him so that he got into a boat on the sea and sat down. And the whole crowd was beside the sea on land. And he taught them at length in parables, and in the course of his instruction he said to them, "Hear this! A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seed fell on the path, and the birds came and ate it up. Other seed fell on rocky ground where it had little soil. It sprang up at once because the soil was not deep. And when the sun rose, it was scorched and it withered for lack of roots. Some seed fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it and it produced no grain. And some seed fell on rich soil and produced fruit. It came up and grew and yielded thirty, sixty, and a hundredfold.” He added, "Whoever has ears to hear ought to hear.” And when he was alone, those present along with the Twelve questioned him about the parables. He answered them, "The mystery of the kingdom of God has been granted to you. But to those outside everything comes in parables, so that they may look and see but not perceive, and hear and listen but not understand, in order that they may not be converted and be forgiven.’” Jesus said to them, "Do you not understand this parable? Then how will you understand any of the parables? The sower sows the word. These are the ones on the path where the word is sown. As soon as they hear, Satan comes at once and takes away the word sown in them. And these are the ones sown on rocky ground who, when they hear the word, receive it at once with joy. But they have no root; they last only for a time. Then when tribulation or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away. Those sown among thorns are another sort. They are the people who hear the word, but worldly anxiety, the lure of riches, and the craving for other things intrude and choke the word, and it bears no fruit. But those sown on rich soil are the ones who hear the word and accept it and bear fruit thirty and sixty and a hundredfold.”

Those who look to our savior, Jesus, will eventually be transformed into perfection. I'm looking forward to that day. How about you? "All will eventually live with God in his kingdom" is a lie from the pit of hell, a Christian ought be ashamed to post something that contradicts God's word......you're going to be held accountable.

And you think your pointing out hypocrisy. Really you just pointed out that your lack of religion leaves with you with no morals.

It’s just one of the many stories in the gospels that most likely never happened. There are quite a few unreconcilable contradictions between the stories depicted in Matthew and Luke.

December 14, 20232 yr As the Scripture states, Joseph had been heard saying, "Go Birds!" just before he walked through the door, and The Innkeeper was a well known Cowboys fan who was jealous because his team hadn't won a playoff game since the prior emperor's rule. Hate to see it.

Really you just pointed out that your lack of religion leaves with you with no morals. I don't believe in Christ, so no hypocrisy. I don't worship the guy who washes hooker's feet and says the meek will inherit the earth. I have morals, just not fake ones most US Christians pretend to have when it is convenient. "Love thy neighbor, but shoot to kill." Such a Christian attitude. "Build a wall, and put blades in floats across the river to kill immigrants, just like Jesus would have done." Pretend Christians wear their hypocrisy like a war wound.

December 14, 20232 yr 32 minutes ago, Boogyman said: I always preferred Twain "Religion was invented when the first con man met the first fool." "History does not record anywhere at any time a religion that has any rational basis. Religion is a crutch for people not strong enough to stand up to the unknown without help. But, like dandruff, most people do have a religion and spend time and money on it and seem to derive considerable pleasure from fiddling with it.” ― Robert A. Heinlein I prefer Heinlein.
