Featured 10 Ways To Determine If Your Christianity Has Been “Americanized”

Looks like little Crabtownboy is still too much of a coward to answer my questions.

 

How do you treat the unborn child Mr. Crab?

 

Please! Don't hold your breath.

 

I'm not. I'm used to him running away when I call his bluff.

That's why you should never send a Crabtownboy to do a Crabtownman's job.

 

Your beliefs have apparently been americanized since you rabidly support the "party of death", the leftist democrat party that celebrates the slaughter of the unborn child.

Every thread you start supports that "party of death"!

 

Which is more important to you, Christ or the "party of death"?

 

And the leftist democrats give less to charity than Republicans and Conservatives. Then there is "good ole Joe":

 

Thanks for posting this Crabtownboy. It caused me serious introspection. I agree with almost all of it.

Amazing that your detractors have turned this thread into a debate on the minimum wage. I guess they couldn't handle addressing any other points in the article.

 

True, true, but they did redistribute their wealth.

 

Uh no they did not. What they did do:

1. This only occurred with the church in Jerusalem. The reason it happened here and no where else is that these new Christians were not from Jerusalem. The were sojourners but had residence elsewhere so they put their funds together.

2. They did not demand that everyone submit to excessive taxes, collected by the government, in order to care for the poor all over Israel.

3. These funds were only used for other Christians who were part of their specific group. They were not used for:

A. Other Christians outside of their group.

B. Other people who were lost.

C. Anyone at all who were not part of those Christians who were saved at that time, place, and day.


People need to actually study their Bibles instead of looking for verses to support their political agenda. Anyway Dr. Youssef debunked the entire thing.

 

We don't know that for sure.

We don't know this either. The Bible says:

Acts 4:29 Now, Lord, consider their threats and enable your servants to speak your word with great boldness. 30 Stretch out your hand to heal and perform signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant Jesus.”

31 After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.
32 All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had.
33 With great power the apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And God’s grace was so powerfully at work in them all
34 that there were no needy persons among them. For from time to time those who owned land or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales
35 and put it at the apostles’ feet, and it was distributed to anyone who had need.

They went out and spoke of the resurrection and did signs. Were they talking ONLY to believers? Of course not.

 

Ok well you left off the rest of that which makes the case so yea we do know.

Ok now you are talking about two different groups of people and two different instances. There is no indication these are related or connected.

Comparing apples and refrigerators here. The gospel was intended to go out to all. The personal funds of those sojourning believers were not.

 

Where do you suppose they got the funding to "go out and preach the gospel to all people?"

 

I'm sorry how is that relevant?

 

Previously, on Baptist Board:

 

OK? Still not seeing the relevance.

 

Paul made tents!
