"The focus of the attack will be the destruction of truth."

Isnt this what the churches have been doing since their inception? Deceive the masses to keep the status quo

"He will even claim to be God, and Satan will enable him to work miracles."

Isnt possible to say this is exactly what priests are doing when they heal with their hands? Working miracles? Or what about saints? Isnt it a requirement they perform a miracle?

Just a quick thought on it

Why was Paul a better man than any of us? Did he have some ability that is not available now? Or, assuming he actually existed was he just A man. Are you saying that anybody who claims to have spoken to God or Jesus is a better man than us? Is he better than holy men from any other faith? Is he better than, say Pope Urban II who after 'speaking to God' declared the first Crusade which ended in the slaughter of Jerusalem. So please explain to me why Paul is a better man than any of us.

royester24: i think john the baptist preached a message of repentance
to people to turn from there sin. and they didnt like his
message so they beheaded him. the same man who was prepareing
the way for lord the one who was to come which was jesus.was he
a fanatic allso because he spoke out against sin. i guess
anyone in todays world who speaks out against sin and imorality
would be considered a fanatic. well GODS message about sin has not changed. but the world view of it has. maybe you think god
is a fanatic as well.


i'm sorry, but i dont see anyone here referring to john the baptist or god as zealots. the subject matter's paul, am i correct?

repentance and judgement are differing things

we are all sinners. are we not?wine

paul was a man of integrity a holy man comissioned by god to
bring the good news to the nations .the message of gods love and salvation so all might be saved. and the free gift of eternal life. for those who would have faith and belief in jesus, he was sent to the nations as james and peter were sent to the jews.
paul did not hate anybody.paul spoke out against sin
and its consquences to us as people and society.no other holy
man in the early church suffered as much as paul for the name
of the lord jesus yes we are all sinners saved by gods mercy and grace. as paul was.wave handshake

I have (indeed I've read all of the bible), and actually keep a number of Bibles and a Strong's concordance handy. I don't claim to know everything about the holey babble, but I know just enough to annoy most christians. Many (NOT ALL; I've spoken to some quite friendly and civil christians who do humankind a good service in general) seem to hate nothing more than being whacked with their OWN holy text.

I left the church because I woke up to the doublethink involved. Ever wonder why there are so many contradictions in the bible? Because it occupies your mind in resolving miniutiae while failing to see it for what the text is:

MAN MADE.

Nothing to cheer up from. I am very happy in my life now. I have seen the tripe in your holly book and found the truth elsewhere. There is no reason to hold on to a foolish belief in invisible sky buddies....

and to think that, that book actually said it is impossible for one who has tasted of the heavenly gift and that which is to come, life everlasting, if they should fall away, to renew them again to repentance seeing they crucified to themselves the son of God afresh and put him to an open shame
