Im not an academic ..
You re the one throwing sophistry around 3 times a post, which is a platonist concept that you claim being paganism ..
That's how socratic method works ..
Just because I use words does not mean Im wordist.
I use word sophistry because thats what you do. I would be platonist if I would use dialectic as a form of argument. I do not do that.
You ignored the piece about self discipline of the body
The one about the scale of the Lord
The one about witnessing wickeds and siner with your eyes while remaining in the Lord shadow
I have said what I think about the first one and the third. What was the second one?
And that's only a few but at this stage I guess you already contradicted much more bible sayings ..
Thats unfair. You can't say that. Either say what I did and where or be silent.
You are bashing hinduism, catholics, methaphysics, arab,jesuits, cabalist, free mason, sophists and what's not ..
Im not bashing them Im saying they are contradicting the Bible message, and that the christian message is not dependant on them or refferant in any means to them. Some of them had been rebuked by Jesus himself like cabalists. Some rebuke themselves like jesuits and catholics.
That's quite a stray you got here, im just doing a service to you as showing it while you complain about christian bashing...

If you had felt I had bashed any of those Im sorry. I only ment to show how unfit they are with the Christian message.
Im quite possitive about arabs... but saying it was highly scientific society would mean they should still be highly scientific now.
That's what jesus said no ?
Yes.
