wowno, i admit that it doesnt say the government CANT do those things, but Jesus told his PEOPLE aka Christians aka the CHURCH to do those things, and to have the government do them is letting the church off the hook for doing what they were commanded to doSo you admit it does say the government can't do those things. That is all you needed to concede.
Really?? the excerpt you quoted "render unto Caesar what is Caesar's and unto God what is God's" says WHO should "heal, shelter the homeless and feed the hungry?" Are you sure about that? I have to ask because I don't see that in their anywhere. LOL
I grew up southern baptist and that is what it said on my dog tags but after seeing how the word of God (no matter which god you choose) has been abused by those who claim to represent God, I consider myself non-denominational. However, what does that have to do with anything being discussed??
and i asked you if you were a christian for no other reason than to know and understand, or at least try to understand your perspective
So you admit that you were WRONG? thanks. Here is where this started
"render unto Caesar what is Caesar's and unto God what is God's"ok moron, show the scripture where Jesus said to have the GOVERNMENT NOT do those things
So you claimed that excerpt showed that jesus said that the government should NOT "heal, shelter the homeless, or feed the hungry" and yet it does NOT show that jesus said that. So you were WRONG. Shifting your argument after being proven wrong only serves to make you look dishonest.
Furthermore, the passage that you showed doesn't say WHO should "heal, shelter the homeless, or feed the hungry" but thanks for the continued spin.
So your desire to know about my personal relationship with God has NOTHING to do with the debate you were just fishing for something to use to attack me. Got it. Were you hoping that I was a atheist or something worse?? LOL
you are just bound and determined to twist everything
have your self a fun time twisting
