If you'd read it yourself you'd know that you have no answer to the quotes I gave you.
But let me assist you in your self-improvement program as a Christian by drawing Proverbs12:22 to your attention ─ something you obviously haven't thought about yet.
You say that David's God is unknowable, but what do you make of Jeremiah 31:31-34? Verse 34 reads: 'And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the...
Beyond God's actions, and what is said about God in scripture, God is unknowable. If your god is knowable. That's a different god.
King David's God is unknowable. God is more than any concept or combination of concepts.
כב עַל־כֵּ֥ן גָּדַ֖לְתָּ יְהֹוָ֣ה אֱלֹהִ֑ים כִּֽי־אֵ֣ין כָּמ֗וֹךָ...
No one is sitting in Psalm 110. That's imaginary.
Christ is not the primary subject of prophecy! 100% correct. When and where it speaks of "salvation", then the subject can be understood as "Christ". As I said "Christ" is "salvation". Do you disagree? Christ isn't salvation???
Now what...
The example you gave from scripture was a WATER baptism, aka a mikveh. That's not an OIL anointing. No oil, no anointing. Unless you have scripture that says otherwise.
The idea comes directly from the text of Daniel 7.
1: "Daniel saw a dream, and the visions of his mind on his bed; then...
Now that I'm an ex-Christian, I refuse to be preached at and lectured about "sin" by Christians who are just as guilty as anyone else for disobeying the commandments in the Bible. In spite of what most Christians seem to believe, they aren't morally superior to non-Christians. The fact is...
Tōʻēḇā is also used in Jewish (and Christian Old Testament) scriptures to refer to:
idolatry or idols (Deuteronomy 7:25, Deuteronomy 13:14, Isaiah 44:19)
illicit sex (e.g. prostitution, adultery, incest) (Ezekiel 16:22,58, Ezekiel 22:11, Ezekiel 33:26)
illicit marriage (Deuteronomy 24:2–4)
a...
The comments lead me to the following: (John 18, conversation with Pontius Pilate and Jesus) Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world; if it were, My servants would fight to prevent My arrest by the Jews. But now My kingdom is not of this realm.” 37“Then You are a king!” Pilate said...
I feel OK about it. Jesus in John wasn't a liar. His miracles require strict adherence to truthful words. God doesn't tolerate false words. Proverbs12:22.
Well, to be fair, many churches do consider most of these things at least immoral. Certainly numbers # 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13 and 14. Same-sex marriage is still not allowed in the RCC, AC and OC. Cross dressing is not welcome in many churches either.
If you're going all in on abominations and the Bible, you must include all of them: Abomination (Bible) - Wikipedia which makes all women who wear pants an abomination unto the Lord.

I see that your inability to understand the written word is still strong. No matter how many times you repeat the same thing over and over again it does not help you. You ignored the fact that there were several definitions and chose only one. That is cherry picking an improper debating...
BEARING FALSE WITNESS 9th COMMANDMENT - WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
EXODUS 20:16, You shall not BEAR FALSE (שׁקר) WITNESS against your neighbor.
The Hebrew word used here for false H8267 שׁקר; šā·qer. The Hebrew word meaning of שׁקר; šā·qer
means, without a cause, deceitful, falsehood feignedly...
Wow!
Leviticus 19:11
11 “ ‘Do not steal. “ ‘Do not lie. “ ‘Do not deceive one another.
Proverbs12:22
22 The LORD detests lying lips, but he delights in people who are trustworthy.
Proverbs 13:5
5 The godly hate lies; the wicked cause shame and disgrace.
John 8:44

Their right to peacefully assemble isn’t what I have an issue with. My issue is clothing choice, presence of minors, and a strange need to be proud of something they claim isn’t a choice. Then, I also have an issue with “***** hats” so...
What’s difficult to understand?
I don’t see how it’s...
So living as a homosexual precludes walking in a parade for equal rights and treatment? How thoughtful of you to demean their right to assembly.
?????
????? Gotta say, you're replies here aren't making much sense.
In other words you're willing to lie on a test. Isn't lying verboten in the...
"Those" to mean published apologies by the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses.
Unbelievable! The GB leads the flock in thought and deed so saying they don't lead is a lie. Sometimes, they have misled the flock and that is what they should apologize for. To say that a published change of...
