An idle mind is the Devil’s playground!
Oh, we got trouble …
Cross the Streams!
psst - Poly - see post 146 - I gave you credit and everything! 
He is not entitled to the authority of the presidency, if not born in the US, blackmail may be a way of looking at how this may happen.
Wait a minute. Aren’t there other parts of the Bible that say that there is only one God? Why does that one quote negate the other parts? Also, it’s from a letter to the Ephesians, right? So, that letter was written by a man who is not a prophet (Paul?, I’m not sure), so he may have been mistaken. If different parts of scripture are contradictory, how do we determine which one is correct and which ones are not? Serious question.
Even Jack Chick would find that embarrassingly silly.
And since he was born in the US, all of your speculation is pointless and completely unfounded in fact. Also, demonic blackmail is not a useful way of looking at anything.
Is it hard to go through life being this stupid?
I imagine that’s why spiritualism is attractive to you. Simple answers for your simple noodle.
But he was born in the US. So shut up already.
SQUEEEE
/me grabs the cookies and scurries into a quiet nook with a big cup of coffee …
I find kanicbird’s basic premises here incredibly amusing. One, that Obama wasn’t born in the US, despite all evidence to the contrary; two, that demons exist; three, that G/god barters with demons for control over secular governments.
I mean, the not-natural-born conspiracy theories are wacky, but the demon-blackmail addendum is just awesome.
It’s a bit like David Icke. You take a conspiracy theory that is vaguely plausible- say, a shadowy cabal executing plans to form a one world government… then you add your own twist, like, “Oh, and they’re shapeshifting lizard men from the Fourth Dimension.”
That’s twice! :o I shall never again post anything without checking the thread for your post! 
Well, a certain genre of fantasy fiction, maybe… but your point is valid.
By the way, demons controlling kanicbird: You have won already. No sane person on this board would ever consider Christianity if not already one after the 'bird’s performance. So go somewhere else and let the poor guy alone, willya?
Was that a Buckaroo Banzia reference or am I just tired?
Prophets, as prophets, do not exist in Christianity.
Paul is, in Christianity, for whatever reason, accepted as “the voice of God”, as are, in fact, all of both the Old Testament and New Testament (and, depending on one’s beliefs, the Apochrypha). I personally, have visions of Peter and James and et al shuddering at Paul’s epistles. Perhaps that’s just me.
No. David Icke is a former football (soccer) player and commentator who believes the world is ruled by shapeshifting lizards from the fourth dimension. The Bush family and the British royal family, for instance.
ETA: The white supremacist community hates him because he distracts people from the “real” secret rulers of the world (ie., the Jews). Combat 18 think he’s a plant to make the white supremacist movement look silly.
In actual fact, though, he really is just utterly insane. He announced that he was the Son of God on British TV some years back.
Holy shit. How did I miss that in all those years of Sunday school? Does this hold for most/all branches of Christianity? Does this have anything to do with Biblical literalism?
Either way, this makes the problem even more difficult. If everything in scripture is the worrd of God, how do the Christian churches square the ‘just one God’ and ‘many Gods, but only worship this one’ statements?
Wait, what? Since when?
Well, at least speaking as someone raised in Catholicism, there are no prophets in, or since, the New Testament.
Funny, nothing he has said seems any weirder than proclaiming the heir to the wallmart fortune is the second coming of christ, if you know what I mean, and I think you do.
