Have you ever ate ice cream till you were full and wanted no more then went back the day or so because you liked it so much you now were hungry for more?

Also according to the Bible sinners want to sin they do not want to be righteous:

Eph 2:1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
2 wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
3 among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others


Psalm 1
1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly,
nor standeth in the way of sinners,
nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord;
and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

4 The ungodly are not so:

When Jesus said those that hunger and thirst for righteousness shall be filled do you really think he meant they would only be filled for a few days and then would have to come back for more?

By the way if sinners only want to sin and do not want to be righteous then Jesus' death was in vain for we all are sinners and not one is righteous nor wants to be righteous. Tell me his death wasn't in vain and stop trying so hard to be right and think about the implications of the things you are saying.

I never said that we were only full for a few days (implying that we run out and have to come get filled up again). What i was saying is that our ice cream bowl gets bigger and bigger so is isnt that we run out as much as it is that our appetite grows and we want more and more.

His death was not in vain.

If you are saved then WERE a sinner but after salvation you are not a sinner any longer.

Acts 26:18 to open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

Col 1:13 who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
14 in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:

Really Luke? It seems you twist your own words as much as the twist the words of Jesus.

But all hope is not lost. I'm glad you admit Jesus death was not in vain. So I have a question... If I can show you one sinner that hungered and thirsted after righteousness that was filled will you denounce your previous claims that sinners never hunger and thirst for righteousness?

Depends on context of passage and life.

1. Was Jesus the Son of God?

2. Did Jesus die on the cross?

3. Was Isaac the Promised son to Abraham and Sarah?

Simpply compare their yes and no answers to the Bible and you will have your answer.

There is a beign who goes by the name allah that claims to be a god and is worshipped as a god but according to the Apostle Paul this bieng is a demon that will one day bow before Jesus and declare Him to be Lord!

Your ignorance is hanging in the wind (probably indicative of your spelling challenges ya?).

Perhaps you should call out the translators and revise (well re-re-re-revise) because Allah sure is the name for God in the Arabic bible (your bible translated into Arabic, not the Quran).

Why don't you pray to ELI as Jesus did? Is it because your God and Jesus' God are different? Your god is who ? Bank accounts? Nice suits? Full gun case and lots of ammo? A "holy" look with a smooth face, sideburns no lower than the middle of the ear, and hair not touching the collar? SUV wrapped around you and your family?

Bleh. Such a god is a god of no book

Handshake and pledge of arms from a "christian" nation.

Who are the extremists here? This war kicked off and dragged on until only children were left to fight it. Supplied by arms pledged by the same man who hung the man who used them. <shakes head>

ya...i would lol here, but it isn't over yet
presented to us as 'nation building" it is just satan running rampant
there is nothing new under the sun.

"The Bible conference of Constantine may have preserved the unity of the Catholic Church but at the expense of Christianity. Those with a zeal for Bible Doctrine forgot the Love of God and became legalists. The issue of the deity of Christ had become the doctrine that turned the bishops of the Catholic Church into legalists. Those who disagreed were brow beaten into signing the Nicene creed. And those who rejected the creed were branded heretics and banished. Now, they were right about the deity of Christ, which is a very important doctrine of the Church; but what they did in the name of Christ was anything but Christian."
