Jesus Washing Osama's Feet

Kyredkneck...

Not at all. Born and raised here. On another discussion site for banjo players.. (I play the banjo, as well as guitar and dobro)..I have a signature at the bottom of my posts that says "I feel sorry for all the people who dont get to live in Kentucky"

They are not. But I've never known anyone who has a gun on their person ALL THE TIME. Do you have lots of enemies who want to "take you out" or something?

Do you know of a person who has pledged to assaninate you two, or somthing?

I mean, I have no problem with having a gun for personal protection, but I've never heard of anyone who is armed 100% of the time...except for police officers.

Well, you have that right, of course.

If Bin Laden walks in you will be there to "take him out".:thumbs:

 

See, Kentucky Redneck!!! If it were just Osama you were "holding" by himself----then that little .22 should be sufficient to make him "sit like a fly stuck on flypaper"

But Osama might have been born at nite----but it wasn't last nite!!!! He's gonna have a contingency mixed/mingled somewhere around---that you're gonna need a little bit more than your little "Pea Shooter" or even your cousin Bubba's sawed off 12 gauge to handle

You're gonna need to call a few more people other than your parents and siblings and 3rd to 4th cousins to help you contain him----you MAY need help from the US Navy and their slick USS Abraham Lincoln and its mighty firepower posed on deck in form of a squadron of F-16 Hornets----Fort Campbell is located in your state----Osama comes in to the iron sites of that miserly .22----you gonna need the Airborne on your cell phone "speed dial"

 

Well, yea, it may be a pea shooter, but at least I'd have that much on me. And who knows, I might trick him into thinking I was going to preach the gospel to him, you know, 'talk religion', and catch him totally off guard.

 

Osama is a murderous outlaw. Once he's incarcerated Prison Fellowship Ministries can have him.

 

And you are certainly free to pray for him.

But....the so called art work is portraying Christ in total opposition to the to the biblical account which is the very word of God.

As Aaron said earlier, the washing of the disciples feet was meant only for those who belong to God and have a personal relationship with Him. It is not the same thing as taking the gospel to the lost world.

Anytime God's word is twisted and manipulated it should be rejected by God's people and it's a good opportunity to teach the world what God's word really says and how they too can have the privilege of Christ washing their feet.

 

So says you and how many others?

There was enough people that had enough respect for Christ and had their sensibilities offended and made enough of an outcry that the malls took the profane things down and contracts were canceled. As I said, it serves them right.

 

So your sensibilities are correct and everyone else's are wrong. You may be a wee bit arrogant here.

 

Thank you.

 

JUst wanted you to know I respect your opinions... and if people hate Osama.. they have to take it up with God who created him in God's image.

I had to deal with this the night Saddam was hung.... I had to understand why I felt happiness and sorrow at the same time...

Then I realize, no matter how much of an American I am, I am a child of God first, and I should be Christ like, and my sorrow was coming from the fact that it is 99.999999999% sure, Saddam is burning in Hell.

If a person can be happy about that, they don't know Christ.

As for the OP, it is shocking.. and it is doing what it was designed to do.. make us think about who Jesus would serve if he were alive today.

Jesus did wash Judas' feet.. a sinner... this is why I don't believe in feet washing in church.. To Jesus it was an act of service.. an act of love for all.. NOt just saints behind closed doors...

A friend of mine went on a mission trip a couple yrs ago to Bolivia. Our missionaries down there serve people that live in a dump.. My friend had the privilege of washing babies and small kids, and cleaning them.. and giving them good clothes.. .He said the hardest part was watching them go back into the dump...

That my friends is the TRUE meaning of feet washing.. it is service to everyone.. Not just Christians.. it showing Christ's love to the world.

So in that sense, Yes, if Jesus had the opportunity while here on earth, he would have served Osama.. maybe even washed the dung off his feet.

Jesus didn't pick and choose who came to him, we shouldn't either.

 

I dont know if I would go *quite* that far...but for sure that person is exceedingly skrewed up in their thinking, and understanding of the truth of the scriptures.

 

I thoroughly agree.

Thanks for saying it so well TinyTim. And thanks to you Jaigner, for being a voice of faith, respect and reason.

 

This is the most ignorant thread I have ever seen produced on this board. No explaination was needed. To even post such trash is beyond a slap in the face to the Lord. This goes beyond the political threads of making God in favor of the Republicans or Democrats, who are themselves trash. This makes my blood boil. For those who think there is a difference in the parties, this thread is in your face. To compare a Holy Lord to the garbage we have produced as human institutions is an outrage. Moderators, why was this thread not banned from the origin? To compare the Lord with such people is an outrage. Think about it, Jesus Christ washing the feet of George W. Bush, Osama, Barack, and other such parasites. Shame on all.

 

(snip)Jesus Christ is to be worshiped and adored. He saved us. His washing of others feet taught us to be servents. It had the purpose of bringing others to Christ, as God commands. We are not to cast our pearls to swine. There are those who will never come to salvation, and if we use common sense, know who they are. They only use the Lord and Christians for their own worldly gain.

 

The picture is blasphemous because the Lord is our Creator, and is Holy. Is that so hard to understand? The heart of humans is evil, and can only be changed by the Lord. The Lord wants us to be servents to those who can be changed. Common sense says those who have spent a life time using worldy power and riches to promote their agenda will probably not be changed. The Lord washed the feet of those He knew. How dare anyone make a Holy God a servent of followers of Satan.
