Read your own bible
He is not love
Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send
peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his
father, and the daughter against her mother...
-- Matthew 10:34-35
Instead - he wants hate
Luke 14:26 (King James Version)
If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife,
and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he
cannot be my disciple.
It is clear that love is not what he is after
Luke 14:26
If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife,
and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he
cannot be my disciple.
There are so many contradictory passages in the bible as to render and
god it describes as a complete impossibility. And since neither YOU nor
any other theist over the centuries has ever provided any testable proof
(And being a doctor - YOU know what that is) - that a god exists - gods
are not just impossible - they are non-existent.
Lie.
"Whoever does not love does not know GOD, because GOD is love." (1
John 4:8)
May we, who are Jesus' disciples (either Jew or gentile), continue to
rebuke you at each GOD-given opportunity as GOD desires:

Yes, hunger is our knowledge of good versus evil that Adam and Eve

Yes Andrew - it is lies - it is from the bible which is all lies.
Obviously both cannot be true. So - the bible has to be wrong in some
places - and therefore it is not an inspired word of a perfect god!

Many thanks, much praise, and all the glory to GOD for His compelling

Indeed, there is no truth in you:
http://groups.google.com/group/sci.med.cardiology/msg/e17dea9c6a25e81c?
On the other hand, truth is in the Bible:
"Whoever does not love does not know GOD, because GOD is love." (1
John 4:8)
Thus, GOD is love.
Moreover, because you are not able to love, you will never know GOD.
Yes they are indeed from the bible - You can look up the passages.
I gave YOU the references
Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send
peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his
father, and the daughter against her mother...
-- Matthew 10:34-35
If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife,
and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he
cannot be my disciple.
Luke 14:26 (King James Version)
And therefore - based on what YOU said
THere are your gods words.
ANd there are dozens more quotes I can make from the christian bible
that directly contradict the quotes you pick.
Maybe like:
Your God Creates Evil
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil:
I the Lord do all these things.
—Isaiah 45:7
And is clearly not loving of enemies
Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance,
and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. Thou shalt
break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a
potter's vessel.
—Psalms 2:8-9
Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth... let them be as cut in
pieces. As a snail which melteth, let every one of them pass away: like
the untimely birth of a woman, that they may not see the sun.... The
righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his
feet in the blood of the wicked.
—Psalms 58:6-10
And - was WRONG
Jesus says that some of his listeners will not taste death before he
comes again in his kingdom.
Matthew 16:28-I tell you the truth, some who are standing here will not
taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom."
Mark 9:1- And he said to them, "I tell you the truth, some who are
standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God
come with power."
Luke 9:27- I tell you the truth, some who are standing here will not
taste death before they see the kingdom of God."
This was supposedly said 2000 or so years ago by YOUR god ANDREW.
There are NO contemporaries of the the time of christ still living.
AND HE TOLD US THE BIBLE IS NOT TRUE
Jeremiah 8:8
'How can you say, "We are wise, for we have the law of the LORD," when
actually the lying pen of the scribes has handled it falsely?
Yes ANDREW - You cannot claim these quotes are not from the bible when
they are directly from the bible - and since YOU say they are lies - you
are saying that the bible lies.
He uses a different bible, Thom. The voices in his head translate it
for him.
Lie.
"Whoever does not love does not know GOD, because GOD is love." (1
John 4:8)
Amen.
Again, it is clearly written that GOD is love.
Bottom line concerning your always lying:
http://groups.google.com/group/sci.med.cardiology/msg/e17dea9c6a25e81c?
No lie look it up.
Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send

-- Matthew 10:34-35

This requirement allows us, who are Jesus' disciples, to inform others

had before we became His disciples.
We are Jesus' disciples when we stop sinning, though we remain

Secret Gospel of Mark controversy
How Morton Smith's Discovery of a Lost Letter by Clement of Alexandria
Scandalized Biblical Scholarship
http://www.gnosis.org/library/secm_commentary.htm
A controversial discovery of ancient manuscript fragments in 1958,
suggesting a homosexual tryst involving Jesus, that was excluded from the
Gospels.
The first fragment of the Secret Gospel of Mark, meant to be inserted
between Mark 10.34 and 35, reads:
" They came to Bethany. There was one woman there whose brother had died.
She came and prostrated herself before Jesus and spoke to him.
"Son of David, pity me!" But the disciples rebuked her. Jesus was angry and
went with her into the garden where the tomb was. Immediately a great cry
was heard from the tomb. And going up to it, Jesus rolled the stone away
from the door of the tomb, and immediately went in where the young man was.
Stretching out his hand, he lifted him up, taking hold his hand.
And the youth, looking intently at him, loved him and started begging him to
let him remain with him. And going out of the tomb, they went into the house
of the youth, for he was rich. And after six days Jesus gave him an order
and, at evening, the young man came to him wearing nothing but a linen
cloth. And he stayed with him for the night, because Jesus taught him the
mystery of the Kingdom of God. And then when he left he went back to the
other side of the Jordan. " [end]
A second fragment of Secret Mark is to be inserted into Mark 10.46. This has
long been recognized as a narrative snag in Mark's Gospel, as it awkwardly
reads, "Then they come to Jericho. As he was leaving Jericho with his
disciples..." This strange construction is not present in Secret Mark, which
reads:
" Then he came into Jericho. And the sister of the young man whom Jesus
loved was there with his mother and Salome, but Jesus would not receive
them. "
There's controversy over whether these fragments were originally in the
"Mark" Jesus story, or not.
However, there's no similar controversy over whether these following tracts
were original to the Jesus stories:
Thomas 114: Simon Peter says to them: "Let Mary go out from our midst, for
women are not worthy of life!"
Jesus says: "See, I will draw her so as to make her male so that she also
may become a living spirit like you males.
For every woman who has become male will enter the Kingdom of heaven."
Matthew 19:12 For there are eunuchs who have been so from birth, and there
are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who
have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He who
is able to receive this, let him receive it.
Clearly it is written that god is hateful and war like.
Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send
peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his
father, and the daughter against her mother...
-- Matthew 10:34-35
The truth does separate the truthful from the untruthful.
GOD, Who is love, is also the truth.
"I am the way and the truth and the life." -- LORD Jesus Christ (John
14:6)
Amen.

Those would be the words of praise that Moses and the 12 tribes of
Israel chose to sing to LORD Almighty GOD after He destroyed their
enemies.
However, most assuredly, without doubt, I know and understand GOD to
be kind, just, and right (Jeremiah 9:24).

More contradiction, if this god is a god of love. This god would show love of
it's creation in punishment, not vengeance.
Not only is this a war lord, but not very powerful, he could not defeat all
foes.
Mother Theresa, when she was living, could have rescued a family of
ladybugs by using a water hose to wash away the fire ants attacking
them.
Just as this would not make Mother Theresa warlike, GOD wiping out
Israel's enemies would not make Him warlike.

GOD remains the Source of love just as He is the Source of life.
GOD, Who is love, is able to hate just as GOD, Who is the life, is
able to kill.
However, most assuredly, without doubt, I know and understand GOD to
be kind, just, and right (Jeremiah 9:24).
> This god would show love of

Not when His creation freely chooses to be evil.
Romans 9:11 (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good
or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of
works, but of him that calleth;)
2 Thessalonians 2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion,
that they should believe a lie:
You are wrong there is no free will. God is a liar.
Love is proof of free will.
Those who are able to love, know they have free will.

Bottom line concerning your difficulties:
Your god lies.
Romans 9:11 (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good

works, but of him that calleth;)
>> God is a liar.
Lie, because we know who is the source of all lies:
Your god lies and has no problem with those who lies, your god is a hypocrite.
And it is just as clearly written that god is evil and hate as well - in
YOUR bible - which you claim is your god's written word. If you say they
are lies - you are saying your god lies or his bible lies.

Luke 14:26 (King James Version)
If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife,

cannot be my disciple.
Your god SAYS he creates evil
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I
the Lord do all these things.
—Isaiah 45:7
Your god admits he is not Almighty
And the Lord was with Judah; and he drave out the inhabitants of the
mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because
they had chariots of iron."
—Judges 1:19
Your god is clearly not loving of enemies
Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance,
and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. Thou shalt
break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a
potter's vessel.—Psalms 2:8-9
Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth... let them be as cut in

the untimely birth of a woman, that they may not see the sun.... The
righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his
feet in the blood of the wicked. —Psalms 58:6-10
All of this is your gods written word in his bible.
And it is just as clear that your god wants hate as well.
Luke 14:26
If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife,
and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he
cannot be my disciple.
Either you HATE or you cannot be his disciple. THese are the words of
you god in the bible.
If you call them a lie - you are calling your god a liar - or you are
admitting that the bible is not the inerrant world of your god.
Luke 14:26 (King James Version)
If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife,
and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he
cannot be my disciple.
IF the bible is your gods word - then the truth is that he does not want
you to be only good. If you consider that a lie - you are saying that of
your god - not me.
As well as requiring hate:
If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife,
and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he
cannot be my disciple.
Luke 14:26 (King James Version)
And discord as well:
Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send
peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his
father, and the daughter against her mother...

This was not GOD's doing but rather the spirit of error (self).
GOD simply allowed it to happen.

Prophets are deceived by their own spirit of error (self).
GOD simply allows this to happen.
Lie. One the bible says nothing about losing souls. Two the bible makes some
pretty bold promises. The fact is these promises have never been kept so A) god
is a liar. B) There are no ture believers. C) It's all fake god is not real it's
just a made up childish invisible friend. I know a lot of belivers and they are
fervant, B is false. A is flase, god does not exist, it must exist before it can
lie. That leaves C, and C is correct.

Andrew- It has been pointed out to you that you lack empathy.
Wishing others dead is clear evidence of your delusional thinking and
lack of concern for others.
Lack of empathy is symptomatic of a narcissistic personality
disorder.

That is a mistranslation, don't you know about this thing called a concordance?
The word soul translates to a Christian.
"If anyone would come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his
cross and follow Me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it,
but whoever loses his life for Me and for the gospel will save it.
What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his
soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul? If anyone is
ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation,
the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when He comes in His Father's

So far Chung leads if length is what matters.
That's not what his wife said.
Well for an ostrich, giving the Ostrich Response, with its head in the
sand and ass sticking up, length may be important if a gay time is to had.
This will need some more anal-ysis
A faulty analogy; think of Andy as an ostrich with its head up its
ass.
I don't how the sand figures into it yet.
I guess being intelligent enough to have a list of degrees after your
name, like Chung, does not mean you cannot have mental illness. Just
read,or watch the movie, A Beautiful Mind about John Nash who even won a
Nobel Prize to see that. Makes you wonder what good Chung could have
done as a cardiologist if this were not the case. Unless Chung gets
help, it is unlikely to change.
Nope mistranslation again.
MARK8:
34. And he called unto him the multitude with his disciples, and said unto
them, If any man would come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his
cross, and follow me.

his life for my sake and the gospel's shall save it.
36. For what doth it profit a man, to gain the whole world, and forfeit his
life?
37. For what should a man give in exchange for his life?
38. For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and
sinful generation, the Son of man also shall be ashamed of him, when he cometh
in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

Do you really expect to get a serious answer from or to have an

I would think the novelty would have worn off unless it is like my

Chung may not have a life outside of this, but do you?
Why do you believe in myths? A true person of science would not be spreading the
crap you spread.
The Church View:
Faith is an unquestioned trust in God you receive by going to church, accepting
what you are told from the pulpit, and of course, paying your dues. Any doubts
or questions are considered as a lack of faith.
The Bible View:
Persuasion that man is more than a physical entity and is part of a much larger
and higher purpose. Even a minute amount of this belief will give mere humans
supernatural power, making them capable of performing feats only limited by the
level of belief itself. A tiny amount of this belief can allow a person to
literally move mountains and gave the miracles of the first members of the
church world great power. It is obvious that that persuasion comes from exposure
to evidence given to man through an opening of the mind to these proofs by God.
The word most often translated into 'faith', (223 out of 229 times in the NT),
is pistis, pronounced pis'-tis, from peitho; persuasion, i.e. credence; moral
conviction.. The word of origin is peitho Pronounced pi'-tho a primary verb; to
convince (by argument, true or false); by analogy, to pacify or conciliate (by
other fair means); reflexively or passively, to assent (to evidence or
authority), to rely (by inward certainty):
This means that faith is belief based on evidence that persuades one to believe.
Paul verifies this in his letter to the Hebrew church:
Faith is Substance and Evidence
Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of
things not seen.
The word evidence is translated from elegchos, pronounced el'-eng-khos;
proof, conviction. This is consistent with the charge that we are to prove, and
literally put to the test, to approve all things before we accept them.
Very interesting.

So losing one's soul is the same as losing one's life? At least you
have moved closer to the true meaning of the term than before. As
you've been told several times, in the Bible "soul" translates the
Hebrew word that means "life force," "breath of life", not some shade
that lives on (that "ghost" meaning is closer to the Greek idea of
Hades where the dead await their fate). "Then the Lord God formed man
of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of
life; and man became a living being." Gen. 2:7 (And "man" [= Hebrew
"adam"] means mankind, not human male.)

You believe in a god whose bible clearly says he wants hate:

peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his
father, and the daughter against her mother...
-- Matthew 10:34-35
Luke 14:26 (King James Version)
If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife,
and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he
cannot be my disciple.
And since you have called what you say is the inerrant word of your god

Actually - Andrew - YOU DO believe in myths.
You are a trained scientist. You know what it means for something to be
proven in a testable and verifiable - and repeatable way. You also know
that religious gods cannot be proven to exist.
So - gods are myths. They is not even enough evidence for them to reach
the hypothesis stage. And everyday - more and more things are explained
that were thought to be the acts of gods by uneducated people.
You don't have that excuse.
You were educated.

Yes, it's usually an animate being that does intellectual work like
translation. However, that only comes up because you once again
(intentionally) misunderstood the words. I said "soul" translates the
Hebrew word, not that the Bible does.

But you abandoned the "solus scriptura" long ago. It means nothing to
you to rewrite scripture or to deny or change its clear meaning.

We weren't talking about Jacob in this text-based medium. The point
of the story is that God created mankind [Adam] and gave him life
[Eve]. The name echoes the Hebrew word for dirt/dust/soil, "adamah."

DONALD
Gender: Masculine
Usage: Scottish, English
Pronounced: DAHN-?ld (English) [key]
From the Gaelic name Domhnall which means "ruler of the world",
composed of the old Celtic elements dumno "world" and val "rule". This
was the name of two 9th-century kings of the Scots and Picts. It has
traditionally been very popular in Scotland, and during the 20th
century it became common in the rest of the English-speaking world.

Hey, think maybe "discernment" not only "automatically transcends an
objective consideration of the facts", it also automatically
transcends any need to understand the languages the Scriptures
were originally written in?
That sure would obviate the need for all those translators...
Apparently it even automatically transcendes any need for
the Scriptures, period.
