Defending paytriots?

 

Rather, defending against the common (profane) use of an event in Scripture meant to be something else with an entirely different meaning. That is the very meaning of using God's name in vain. It is using the sacred to promote another cause.

 

Your use of it generalizes it, waters down the intended meaning. The temple controllers had usurped their positions while pretending to serve God. Despite the fact they hated Rome, they had purchased their way into their positions assigned them by the Roman authorities. They used GENTILE powers to give them their authority, yet they hated the Gentiles and changed the coin of Casar so that they wouldn't take "filthy" money. Christ Jesus was not simply casting out these "money changers", but he also uttered the Words that went with it: My Father's House is a House of prayer for ALL people. Here He was pointing to the fact that He was to be the Propitiation not just for those among the circumcised but also for those among the uncircumcised, the Gentiles, whom these moneychangers hated, but from whom they had received their authority over the Temple.

 

This message is part and parcel to the Gospel, and your profane use of a picture relative to that scene, for your cause, waters down the Gospel. This is no joking matter because the Gospel is for saving souls from eternal condemnation. Your use of it belittles that and obscures what it is meant to convey.

 

Surely, you can make your argument without having to resort to misapplying Scripture for common cause?

I don't do PayPal (Thiel) nor Patreon, but thanks for the offer.

 

You apparently don't understand what "legalistic" means. Legalism, Nomism, is relative to using the Law to be justified. It is the opposite extreme to Antinomianism, which is lawlessness. Christians do not seek to be justified by the Law, but they establish the Law. God didn't save souls for them to be lawless, but to walk in righteousness to His Glory.

>The Spirit of Pharisee is strong in this one.

Not a single anon is impressed with your religiosity, I'm sure. But, who knows…?

 

If the goal were to impress others, then that would be a sorry aspiration. Nonetheless, only God knows.

 

>Listen, I do what I want.

 

No one is stopping you.

 

>I disagree with you.

 

Obviously.

 

>I think you're a douche.

 

Thank you for revealing yourself. Do you think your credibility may suffer while using that which is of God while disparaging another? Isn't that the same sort of hypocrisy in which the Pharisees engaged?

 

>You have the right to say what you want. I have the right to ignore you.

 

By all means, do so. My responses to your posts aren't meant for you alone, just so you know.
