. It was a Christian William Wilberforce who persuaded petitioners that slavery wasn't right or Christian.
It is false teaching to stone people,
In Spire, what is the root of this word inspire?
Caring for their children and caring for grandchildren, it is not selfish.

A Polish human-trafficking ring have been jailed after the CPS concluded the UK’s largest ever modern slavery prosecution and what is believed to be the biggest of its type in Europe.
As of September 2010, stoning is a punishment that is included in the laws in some countries including Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Iran, Somalia, Yemen and some predominantly Muslim states in northern Nigeria as punishment for Zina ("adultery by married persons").

The odd thing is that the verb has changed from something you do for yourself to something you do to others!
Quote from: Europan Ocean on 31/08/2020 13:18:00. It was a Christian William Wilberforce who persuaded petitioners that slavery wasn't right or Christian. Only because others- those who didn't believe the Bible- explained that it was wrong.Quote from: Europan Ocean on 31/08/2020 13:18:00It is false teaching to stone people,Then the Bible taught falsely.Quote from: Europan Ocean on 31/08/2020 13:23:57In Spire, what is the root of this word inspire?To breathe in.Did you know that you can check stuff before you post it?Quote from: Europan Ocean on 31/08/2020 13:23:57Caring for their children and caring for grandchildren, it is not selfish.So what?It's not the same as wanting their children to be straight because they want Grandchildren.That's selfishness on the part of the potential grandparents."I want you do do something my way because I want the outcomes of that" is selfishness.Why lie about it?Quote from: Europan Ocean on 31/08/2020 13:23:57I do not know how people become homosexual.In general they don't.When did you become straight?(That's not the same as when did you realise you were).Even better, when did you decide to become straight ? (Since you still seem to have this lingering failure to understand that people don't choose their sexuality)Quote from: Europan Ocean on 31/08/2020 13:18:00"The kingdom of God is not a matter of food and drink, but righteousness or justice, So that's why homosexuals were denied basic human rights - like marriage. or even life- by the church.Don't you see the contradiction?Quote from: Europan Ocean on 31/08/2020 13:18:00Slavery and stoning are obsolete.Great! Now you just have to recognise that the rest of the book is also obsolete.

Polish authorities whether Christian or not are intended to imprison slave drivers.
It is not the revelation to King David or the NT.
Quote from: Europan Ocean on 01/09/2020 05:57:48Polish authorities whether Christian or not are intended to imprison slave drivers.In spite of the fact that they are doing what the Bible tells themQuote from: Europan Ocean on 01/09/2020 05:57:48 It is not the revelation to King David or the NT.No, but what is in the NT is Matthew's testimony that Jesus said to carry on with the old laws.
The Polish are mostly Catholics, so no, they have an interpretation of the Bible that hates slavery is the opposite of what the Bible actually says.
Jesus revised the old laws
So we are moving towards a definition of a real Christian as someone who rejects all the prior teachings of Christianity and activities of his forebears, invents new etymology for old words, and cannot draw inspiration from a Saxon church. Indeed since Norman architecture was unknown before the 11th century, we can discount most of Christian history and teaching, including the entire New Testament, as uninspired.Pretty much narrows it down to Catholics and Anglicans, who have been stoning, boiling and beheading each other ever since the Church of England was invented.
Quote from: Europan Ocean on 01/09/2020 13:05:42The Polish are mostly Catholics, so no, they have an interpretation of the Bible that hates slavery is the opposite of what the Bible actually says.Fixed it for you.Quote from: Europan Ocean on 01/09/2020 13:05:42Jesus revised the old lawsJust not true.What he said (reportedly) was “For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.”Which is the exact opposite of what you claim.But, even if it was true there's a problem.It took well over a thousand years for people to actually stop doing it.People were still stoning gays, burning witches, trading slaves and practicing trial by ordeal with the full backing of the Christian church(es) well into the second millennium and in some cases until the 19th century.So why were they- closer in time to Jesus- not following His will, but we are following it better today?That simply does not make sense.The Romans didn't bring Judaism to the UK so the UK had practically no "tradition" of following the OT.The people who brought Christianity, also brought those laws about slaves and witches.Those laws are part of Christianity whether you want to face the fact or not.
The original likeness of Christ and the teaching, "they will know we are Christians by our love"...
Jesus taught "with authority"
Slowly progress has been made towards compassionate deliverance from demons.
He claimed authority, but that's different.
Quote from: Europan Ocean on 06/09/2020 15:34:02 The original likeness of Christ and the teaching, "they will know we are Christians by our love"...Followed by 2000 years of actions that speak louder than words.Quote from: Europan Ocean on 06/09/2020 15:50:31Jesus taught "with authority"|Not really, because if he did, we would all accept it.He claimed authority, but that's different.Quote from: Europan Ocean on 06/09/2020 15:50:31Slowly progress has been made towards compassionate deliverance from demons.And away from the Church and the teachings of Christ ( who said that the old laws should prevail)
Quote from: Bored chemist on 06/09/2020 16:04:46He claimed authority, but that's different.And the only authority he claimed was the established Judaic law. People often forget that their model, Jesus, was not a Christian.
So are you saying that the actual Jesus or His concept of God, was determined by the creedalists who heard the Gospel only in latin?
No Jesus spoke claiming authority to alter Moses's teachings, and was accused by this means and put to death.
Quote from: Europan Ocean on 06/09/2020 18:12:33So are you saying that the actual Jesus or His concept of God, was determined by the creedalists who heard the Gospel only in latin?Unless you are two thousand years old, you don't know anything about Jesus except via the writings of those " creedalists who heard the Gospel only in latin".Quote from: Europan Ocean on 06/09/2020 18:14:57No Jesus spoke claiming authority to alter Moses's teachings, and was accused by this means and put to death. If he had actually had any valid authority, he wouldn't have been killed for it.His crime was to claim authority he didn't actually possess.
The alleged crime was blasphemy. His political problem was one of public expectation. The Messianic prophecies were all about military and political leadership bringing freedom, selfdetermination and territorial rights to a nation, but all he actually did was to preach an interpretation of religious law and practice within the existing temporal state. When prompted towards a secular revolution he said "render unto Casear...", accepting the Roman occupation as a fact, which is why Pilate "found no fault in him" - he had not transgressed Roman law, but clearly pissed off the religious professionals.
