From Leo, an apology! The apostle Paul made terrible mistakes in his preaching by using guilt as a punch line. For instance, on the matter of Christ, Jesus death, it was a terrible thing for the apostle Paul to use it against my brothers because I have come to be one of them also in spirit. I will therefore disclose the following: (Ecclesiastes 7:20) For there is no man righteous in the earth that keeps doing good and does not sin. (Colossians 4:6) Let YOUR utterance be always with graciousness, seasoned with salt, so as to know how YOU ought to give an answer to each one. (James 3:2) For we all stumble many times. If anyone does not stumble in word, this one is a perfect man, able to bridle also [his] whole body. I have sinned for quoting the scripture that uses guilt as a punch line. I will not discuss the manner of Jesus death in regards of the parties involved, but I will discuss the matters of faith in order to reconcile a world to God. (2 Cor 5:20) Also, on the matter of my analogies, I apologize. (Numbers 23:19) "God is not a man that he should tell lies, Neither a son of mankind that he should feel regret. Has he himself said it and will he not do it, And has he spoken and will he not carry it out?" The Sovereign Lord cannot be liken to Xerxes, "for (Exodus 34:6) Jehovah went passing by before his face and declaring: “Jehovah, Jehovah, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abundant in loving-kindness and truth" The Sovereign Lord Jehovah does whatever he desires even forgiving the entire globe. (Jonah 4:11) "And, for my part, ought I not to feel sorry for Nin′e·veh the great city, in which there exist more than one hundred and twenty thousand men who do not at all know the difference between their right hand and their left, besides many domestic animals?” The hatred of religious fanatics, Christians wannabes have spilled lost of blood for insisting in using guilt as a punch line. As for me this is what I shall say: (Acts 10:34, 35) At this Peter opened his mouth and said: “For a certainty I perceive that God is not partial, 35but in every nation the man that fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him. We will not just focus on one nation for God has selected all nations to call for a people for His Sacred Name. Notice: (Acts 15:14) "Sym′e·on has related thoroughly how God for the first time turned his attention to the nations to take out of them a people for his name" The Sovereign Lord Jehovah has blessed all nations, notice: (Genesis 22:17, 18) I shall surely bless you and I shall surely multiply your seed like the stars of the heavens and like the grains of sand that are on the seashore; and your seed will take possession of the gate of his enemies. 18And by means of your seed all nations of the earth will certainly bless themselves due to the fact that you have listened to my voice.’” And four living creatures, and the 24 elders and the four corners of the earth did the following as the angel declared the glad tidings throughout the earth: (Revelation 4:9-11) And whenever the living creatures offer glory and honor and thanksgiving to the one seated upon the throne, the one that lives forever and ever, 10the twenty-four elders fall down before the One seated upon the throne and worship the One that lives forever and ever, and they cast their crowns before the throne, saying: 11“You are worthy, Jehovah, even our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power, because you created all things, and because of your will they existed and were created.” Notice what the angel the declared from the heavenly heights: (Revelation 14:6) And I saw another angel flying in midheaven, and he had everlasting good news to declare as glad tidings to those who dwell on the earth, and to every nation and tribe and tongue and people, (Revelation 14:7) saying in a loud voice: “FEAR God and give him glory, because the hour of the judgment by him has arrived, and so worship the One who made the heaven and the earth and sea and fountains of waters.” ~End of Reading~
