17:15 He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD. Does this mean anything to either of you?

Oooops.. what was that again?

Now they're sins and not religious hypocrisy? Must be nice to have a free pass, eh? 17:15 He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD. Does this mean anything to either of you?

17:15 He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD. Does this hold any meaning to you Aery?

Have you ever seen me act that way Aery? And I don't claim to be Christian. Why is it I know better? I'm human too.. Is Jesus gonna step on my scale?

Not according to the bible.. Or your previous, or his previous words and subsequent clarification. Is that not religious hypocrisy Aery? And please don't answer for eddo. That's his job.

Have you ever manipulated the people around you and acted in malice towards myself you to serve your own selfish desires? Have you ever acted in malice towards myself or another out of jealousy?

Have you ever tried to bring harm to myself, or others in my presence in the 3 1/2 years we have known each other? Have you talked behind peoples backs in a negative manner? Have you ever looked down on someone for what you've done, and punished them for it? Have you ever lied about me or said anything concerning myself to attempt to make me look bad to others? Did you attempt to hurt me in a way only I would understand with some personal information before I revealed it myself?

My eye is clear eddo.. would you like yours to be?

So by your own words and definitions eddo.. you have been a practicing religious hypocrite. Correct?

Good enough..

I don't fit any of those definitions eddo.. but you do. Yet you judge, label, and look down on me and call me a hypocrite?

So a person who openly denounces God, and practices hypocrisy is not a religious hypocrite? VS. Someone who openly praises God, and claims to follow the teachings of Christ, yet acts the opposite?

What construes a religious hypocrite, from your everyday average hypocrite?

You must not have read the post several back where I already said I watched it. And is it not written that a hypocrite does not know the father, or I?

Not suggesting you have a complete, well adjusted grasp on something that I am incapable of grasping? Not an insult? You find something I said condesending? So speak to me in a condesending manner? What would that be? Or a convienient escape? Do fine details not deserve observation? Doesn't seem to Christianly to me.. but what do I know.. I didn't go to church. I take everything I think about as far as I possibly can.. The details are where the fruit is.. I don't stop at comfortable. Or "walk away".. according to someone who doesn't want me to look any deeper.. Seems the opposite of Christ to me.

Apparently you missed these... Your only comment was an indication that I am not as capable as you as understanding what is written.. yet you refuse to explain it? Do you equate sinner with hypocrite? Are those two words the same? Did Jesus use them interchangebly or did each have a specific and seperate meaning? All Hypocrites, are sinners. All sinners, are not hypocrites. If I break into your house and steal from you, I have committed sin but not hypocrisy. Correct? What does the bible say will happen to those who practice hypocrisy, which is what construes a hypocrite? Are we all hypocrites Aery? Eddo?

Did you read anything I asked? Why can't you answer and clarify it for me in your words? You've studied the bible much more than I.. Why do you insult me and clarify nothing? I can grasp and understand anything..

That's because a hypocrite is a hypocrite is a hypocrite. The argument is whether or not we are all hypocrites and will be weeping and gnashing our teeth as eddo and Aery said. Are we, or are we not all hypocrites, except for Jesus? If you say we are, as you already did, then the bible is quite specific of our fate. Is it not?

Ok Aery.. I watched it.. Not sure how that pertains to what I am talking about here.. It didn't prove everyone is a hypocrite.. What was it suppose to help me with?

Hmmmmm... what's she worried about?

I got dial up.. and I want to hear it from you, in your words.. Please. But I will watch it.. You understand what I am saying to you, yes?

But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, unwavering, without hypocrisy. (James 3:14-17)
