We have Islamic Jihad expressing the desire to convert or die... We had the crusades hard selling Religion ... but what about the Jew's? ... Was there a point in time where they tried to expand ? or is this why there are so few of them left ?
And God said "Abram, you are no more..." But God chose to let Ishmael's seed prosper beyond His Only Begotten Son's... Right? Islam shall overcome?
And God chose to delegate to those who know better than what God himself stated (the beatitudes of Jesus the Christ), admiring instead the Crusades, the Inquisition papists, and the actions of those other True Believers who felt - and still feel - compelled to EARN their salvation by supplanting their faith and trust in the Lord with their zealousness toward murdering Infidels. All in the name of god [sic].
Oops, that sounded a little jihadist, I must admit. So much for proclaiming Salvation by faith as THE alternative to 72-virginians!
I meant to say that what Christ meant to say when He thought He said "and that mountain will move" was for us to proclaim "yes Lord, I can drive a DOZER and I know how to use EXPLOSIVES, (too, remembering Sodom and all) , and I'LL MAKE that mountain move, I'LL BLAST THOSE R*****DS AND THEIR JEW-PROGENITORS TO HELL. JUST LIKE YOU WANT! They're just unproductive fig trees, after all; yeah, like those lepers and canaanites, and like that lying adulteress! What's that? I know you didn't mean Your "measuring stick" and your "chosen people", did You?
Oh well, it's the anniversary of the seventh day: You can rest, God, I've got the Lord's battle well in hand, I'll show You how much faith I CAN HONOR YOU WITH BY MY WORKS... well, no Lord, that's not really what I mean, about Jews and about other living souls who are hungry and fishermen who only don't appear to be.
I KNOW you know what I mean and that makes me right, right? Right? RIGHT? Or was it LEFT? Which thief on the adjoining cross? Which side was it? Certainly not the L...
Damn those Jews! They made me concentrate on the Old Testament. They made me forget the New. Mel was RIGHT, even though he was drunk at the time. And yeah, I agree with what you said:
Vengeance is MINE I say to the Lord! Well, it was something like all that. Was all this too confusing?
Why?
