[quote name='Budge' post='1269297' date='May 9 2007, 04:12 PM']Oh so we arent allowed to quote scripture now...

OKAAAAAAAAAAAAAY

[/quote]

I didn't say we aren't allowed to quote Scripture, Jesus quoted Scripture. Do you read your Bible?

I said that Jesus did not [b]quote the chapter or verse[/b] and since the Bible does not explicity show an example of this practice, nor teaches it, by your standards we aren't suppost to do it since it's unscriptural. Just like it's unscriptural to bow down to statues.

[Budge]

So What?

I dont always quote the numbers either, may just say from the book of John it says...

What does this quibble and nibble have to do with anything?

You're practicing a custom that is not endorsed nor explicity mentioned in the Bible, therefore, you are not a strict Bible following Christian.

Pal, seriously, we're all beyond that inane line of reason.

You're better than that bro.

Budge, you got caught contradicting yourself again.

[Budge]

Thats the best argument you could come up with? Is that Catholic apologetics out of a cracker box?

ANYHOW....

little wooden dollies ARE discussed.....lest you forget...

[b]Deu 4:28 And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands,[b] wood[/b] and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.

I'm using [b]Budge[/b]'s line of reasoning, it's not mine.

[Brother Adam]

So God commanded the making of a graven image in Numbers 21:8-9. Another contradiction in the religion of Budge. You should join Christianity.

Yo, is that the best you got? I feel ya, it's hard to take down a Christ-centered institution that's been around for approx. 2,000 years. Keep trying though, you may make a dent someday.


Besides, you're the last to talk. Making a big fuss over small stuff such as statues and dolls is a desperate measure. Incase you forgot, you didn't address the issue of Gospel music not found in the Scriptures. Why do you follow a type of music that wasn't practiced in the Bible?

Im making the fuss?

I didnt build a gold case and a multimillion dollar cathedral to house the THING.

[Brother Adam]

Are you trying to avoid your contradiction again?

Are you jealous because they didn't build one for your Budgisterium?

Who cares what they build, you're not going there anyway.

How exactly does this post reflect that Jesus is living in you? Are you sure you've been saved?

[Budge]

God doesnt have a sense of humor?

Well, we all fall short of the glory of God. We all have our imperfections.

I don't think he finds your sinful post funny.

But you're not God.

Budge, you quietly skipped over this:

Numbers 21:8-9

[Mateo el Feo]

[quote name='Budge' post='1267938' date='May 8 2007, 10:56 AM']Do you know the name of those cherubs?

They were mere decoration.

No Jew ever put a crown on top of their head or paraded them around.[/quote]Yeah, they just bowed before bronze serpents, in the hope of being healed.

I thought that your literalist interpretation was pretty shaky. But these new "get out of jail free" cards your trying to use are mind-boggling.

Let's check your sig:[quote]Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them.[/quote]Share with us, please:
1) where is the clause which exempts graven images of angels when they aren't identified by a particular name.
2) where is the clause which exempts graven images which were "mere decoration."

I'm also interested in how God's command is interpreted by Budgianity as "mere decoration." God's inspired Holy Scriptures are much more than an ancient version of "Better Homes and Gardens", which seems to be what you're implying.
