Everyone but you? See, here we go again with the condesending attitude. This is what turns everyone off to wanting to discuss anything with you and taking you serious.
think they already have it all figured out and that think I am a no nothing hick
or something of that nature that I have a problem with. It is the same with
you about your supposed great knowledge of the Koine Greek and looking at
me like I am a no-nothing and I could not possible tell you anything.

But to be honest with you I think you kave a lot of knowledge of what you believe and that you do believe fully in that. I have no doubt you are sincere.
But this issue that we are all talking to you about is a serious one and one that even non religious people here see and that is your presentation which does no good in trying to teach or show your viewpoint of the Bible to anyone. It's extrememly counter productive on all levels.
Jesus is our prime and perfect example of how to teach and deal with people of all beliefs, races, customs, sinful ways and even ones that we may completely disagree with or even dislike. He showed us how to love all.......
And more then that we can NEVER judge anyone no matter how clear a fault may be with them on any level.
If you personally feel they are lost and not worth dealing with then fine, that's your decision. But never use your opinions and the Bible in the same process of deciding if that person is worthy of your time and being rude to them. You are no judge on a spiritual level as none of us are.
A simple rule of thumb I would think is if you make someone mad over a spiritual matter, you are doing something wrong. But if they get mad and you've shown them love, then they are doing something wrong.

bascially the same ways. I do try to follow Christ as betst as I can. But'surely you are not saying I must be as good as Christ in presenting the Good news. I
believe, if someone gets mad at me when I present the turth of a spirituall
matter, then that is there problem. I am just going to think I did a good job.

you mean the muslims should turn the other cheek? they're not christian. they are still on "eye for an eye"
prophecies they do not accept, since Mohammed is considered the greatest
prophet of this god they call Allah.
P.S. I believe Allah is another name of Satan.

one individual soldier not to the fact that the soldier involved should be forgiven
and the people should get over it. Obvious, the soldier is guilty and should be
punished.

Originally posted by RJHindsHow should the local people react to these things? If RBHill means that they should "turn the other cheek" what does that actually mean in this case?
