More like, speaking in the self-important folly of man.
Also guilty are those he holds in high esteem.
Coincidence?
A dastardly burglar breaks into a house, and as he is poking around looking for valuables to steal, is alarmed to hear a squeaky voice saying,"Jesus is watching you!"
Startled, the burglar looks for the speaker. Seeing no one, he hurriedly keeps putting things in his bag, before again hearing, "Jesus is watching you!"
This time the burglar sees the parrot, and feeling relieved that it wasn't the homeowner, replies smugly, "Who are you?"
"Moses," the bird replies.
"Who the heck would name a bird Moses?" the burglar laughed.
"I dunno," Moses answered, "I guess the same kind of people that would name a Rottweiler Jesus."

God loves sinners
" But God commends His own love to us in that while we were YET SINNERS, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8)
You say a lot of stupid stuff off the top of your head Rajk999. Why don't you slow down and muse on the word a little more carefully from now on?

You DO sound like a junior high school yard punk bully most of the time.
Is that why they kicked you out of the Jehovah's Witness Kingdom Hall ?

Sin is what stops people from entering the Kingdom of God
God sent Jesus to die for the sins of the world
So that people can STOP SINNING
Therefore they might have a chance for eternal life.
Sinners will be destroyed BECAUSE GODS HATES SINNERS
The Righteous will enter the Kingdom of God.
GOD LOVES THE RIGHTEOUS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS

That's right.
But He loved YOU and you are a BIG sinner.
And He loved me and I was an even bigger sinner.
He loved us while we were yet sinners - hating the sin and carrying up our sins in His body on to the tree.
Sin is what stops people from entering the Kingdom of God
That is right.
But the point here is that God loves the sinner to die for him.
And God loves His redeemed.
It is His good pleasure to give them the kingdom.
Its in your Bible -
" Do not be afraid, little flock, because your Father has been well pleased to give you the kingdom." (Luke 12:32)
God sent Jesus to die for the sins of the world
Which consists of sinners.
So that people can STOP SINNING
Hardly not without His indwelling empowering through the Holy Spirit.
You can't stop without Jesus.
This is the victory that overcomes the world - our Faith.
Go locate it in First John.
We overcome by putting our FAITH in the Overcomer Jesus to live in us.
Your gritting your teeth and trying to live righteous is more akin to Mohammed ism. You sound like a frustrated Moslem.
Therefore they might have a chance for eternal life.
I have eternal life. The New Testament tells me so.
I am also in the process of sanctification.
Sinners will be destroyed BECAUSE GODS HATES SINNERS
God so loved the world - which consists of sinners.
While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
The Righteous will enter the Kingdom of God.
GOD LOVES THE RIGHTEOUS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS
He hates the SELF - righteous.
God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble.
5 Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for
“God resists the proud,
But gives grace to the humble.”
6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, (1 Pet. 5:5,6)
Originally posted by @sonshipYou are agreeing with me BUT,, you have something to say that Jesus did not say.

Im right ... BUT .. some other irrelevant nonsense you have to add.
Jesus never once said :
- God loves sinners
- That nobody could be righteous
Those are your church doctrines.
Your personal comments went over my head.
