Sorry, may be I made a mistake, but can you show it to me.
Can you refere me to the true meaning of these verses?
I don't try to take anything out of its context.
Thank you for your comments that I didn't understand.
Note:I don't read the Bible in English, I read in Arabic, and go to translations.
To argue, you have to learn the opponent's conventions and attack them on their own acknowledged foundations. Otherwise, your argument has no perceived merit. For your audience, your use of the verses you quoted does not actually support your stated contention. It just looks like gibberish.

Originally posted by ahosyneyI can't help but feel as though the warnings that have been posted are nothing more than warnings about what is happening here. You say there was no Bible? This is incorrect. The Jews had the written word as we do today. Granted, it is not the Bible of today with the New Testament, however, the books such as Genesis, Exodus, etc were already the written word as we have them today.
Mathew: 7 Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,
hypocrites Mark 7:6
8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
This Isa 29:13, Mark 7:6
9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the [b]commandments of men.
And also see Ma ...[text shortened]... burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the LORD of hosts our God. [/b][/b]
BTW you still did not answer me, do you believe Jesus to be the Messiah?

I mean, base your life on a political tool that can't even decide on how its principal baddie dies...
"And he cast down the pieces of silver into the temple and departed, and went out and hanged himself." (Matt. 27:5)
Or...
"And falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all of his bowels gushed out." (Acts 1:18)
Hmmmmm

You're the idiot who lives his virtuous life according to Gospel:
Numbers 31:17
(Moses says to them) "... Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known a man by lying with him..."
Anyone who can live their life & base their moral principals on such psychotic dribblings can't have any heart at all.
