He spammed his lies against me across nine forums repeatedly. He gave up when (IMHO) he realized he had no defense against my proof he has no true allegiance to the pope but only to his interpretation of the pope.
Bible-only is great. The Bible indicates only Pharaoh and Herod celebrate birthdays, namely by killing people, but righteous Job cursed his having a birthday. So it's pretty simple from there.
What do you think of Matt. 18:15-17 and getting a second witness when you have an offense against a self-professed brother like this?
Are you like a Jehovah's Witness or something? My understanding of Job's curse was he cursed the day he was born, to say it was the fact he had a birthday is maybe technically correct but framing it that way seems engineered to a certain conclusion, since the only reason he'd be cursing that he had a birthday is because he wished he weren't burn.
I don't even celebrate my own birthday (though others in my life will force me to) but I find it strange that the Bible contains explicit prohibitions around things like wearing mixed fabrics, rules about circumcision, and all kinds of super specific things, but requires reading between the lines to figure out that God condemns birthdays
No cultism, just Hebrew roots Christianity while avoiding legalism. Yes, the Levitical prohibitions are pretty direct and all have didactic reason, and the avoidance of pagan-style days is just a fence that a lot of people put up when they discover the Hebrew structure. That is, you find out Jesus wasn't born on Christmas and you are tempted to throw out everything. But personally I found that the Bible supports the idea that American birthdays are pretty much little idol parties, and so that's been my practice for awhile, and I share it in case others might see the same evidence the same way.
Yes, I have all sorts of engineered canned statements that I throw into the ether to see what sticks. Obviously the one thing that needs emphasis all the time, especially here, is that Jesus died for our sins and rose to give us eternal life. But I like to build on what others say.
