Daniel #131: You then go on a short ramble about the persecution that Jesus was facing<br />

(primarily alluding to the book of John), and yet I didn‘t get the point of either why you mentioned<br />

this or what it has to do with the discussion at hand. What does this have to do with you not<br />

wanting to listen to a gay Christian preacher (who probably openly agrees with you on much of what<br />

you say in this particular comment) share the Word of God on Sunday? Would you care to clarify<br />

how this is at all relevant, my Friend?<br />

Daniel #132: Next you cite Genesis 3:1-4 to frame your belief that Satan is currently<br />

―doing the same thing by attempting to convince people that God is a liar.‖<br />

You know Dan, at least to a (mostly symbolic) degree, I actually agree with you on this<br />

one, though where we differ is on who we believe is lying. The evidence in the Scriptures pretty<br />

clearly points to Paul (the ―godfather‖ of the conservative theology currently being championed by you<br />

& yours) as being one of the Bible‘s greatest Deceivers, and I have already shown you many of<br />

these Scriptures in this thread on numerous occasions (most recently on pages 629-630 previously).<br />

And besides, even if Paul only inadvertently twisted The Way of Christ on its head, wouldn‘t it<br />

be wise of a worshipper of Jesus Christ to follow his words over Paul‘s wherever they happen to<br />

contradict? Indeed, I am still more than puzzled by the fact that you & yours continue to openly<br />

& blatantly give the teachings of Jesus a far lower priority than the verses of the Old Testament<br />

& the writings of self-proclamined ―apostle‖ … Why are you doing this?<br />
