@secondson saidIf something isn't hypocisy but you use the word hypocrisy to refer to it, then you are using the word incorrectly. You use it incessantly to mean something along the lines of 'Oh i don't like the stuff you've saying' or 'Oh I strongly disagree with you'.
Your 'excuse' is not understanding what hypocrisy looks like in action within the context of this thread, your textbook definition notwithstanding.
I think there is love to be found in that.
The love of God for man was demonstrated on the cross of Jesus Christ. That truth is absent from Rajk's lexicon. If Rajk truly loved 'non-believers' he'd be telling them about God's salvation through the death of His Son.
1 John 4:10
Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
Has Rajk ever told you that?
@fmf saidYour avatar, is the need for thick spectacles due to straining at gnats all day?
Regardless of how much you think you are seeing between the lines or how much you think others are missing stuff that's between the lines, when you use the word "hypocrisy", it almost always used incorrectly.
What's worse is why am I bogged down with you arguing over the meaning and application of a word?
The root of hypocrisy is relative to a person with two faces. They say one thing and do another. Then there are a myriad of applications based on context and intent.
Confront your own hypocrisy for a change.
@secondson saidI don't engage in hypocrisy and every time you say that I do, I think that you are using the wrong word and that you are referring to something else.
Confront your own hypocrisy for a change.
@secondson saidBut I don't do this. I don't have "two faces". Nor do I "say one thing and do another".

@secondson saidWhile your church doctrine is in the bible it is not preached by Jesus Christ. We have had this conversation many times before and your church indoctrination is so severe that it has removed your ability to see what Jesus is saying. You are therefore in a cult [just like dj2becker] unable to see the truth.

Jesus preached to many thousands and thousands, multitudes of people for several years about what one needs to do the get eternal life in the Kingdom of God. Please quote from the teachings of Jesus Christ where He said this.

Thank you. [Its not there so dont waste your time looking].
Your church preaches a doctrine contrary to Christ. Even your quote from the Epistle of John if read properly contains this statement about love and eternal life in the Kingdom of God ... For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. (1 John 5:3 KJV)
My focus is the teachings of Christ on how one can get eternal life. Your focus is removing the teachings of Christ that conflict with your faith only doctrine. This is hypocrisy of the worst kind... ie the professing of faith in Christ with the mouth and yet denying the essential teachings of Christ. This is the kind of hypocrisy that is punishable by damnation.
@dj2becker saidAmazing how FMF did that isn't it?
You are confusing me with Romans. Your memory is fried I’m afraid.
No wonder this forum has fewer and fewer contributing posters every year.

Yours is heresy. I won't debate the teachings of scripture with a reprobate and liar.
@secondson saidMore insults in the face of defeat. Jesus Christ never preached your church doctrine, and neither did the Apostles. Your doctrine was concocted by a lazy reprobate mind. Good works and righteousness which Jesus and the Apostles called good, is now turned upside down and considered evil. Your false doctrine was foretold by the prophets and your end will be damnation
Had this argument with you too many times.

Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! (Isaiah 5:20 KJV)
@ghost-of-a-duke saidHonestly, that is completely off topic.
Rajk doesn't automatically condemn non-believers to eternal torment. I think there is love to be found in that.
Let us say that you believe someone's religious views are actually illogical/incorrect, but holding it against them as a social flaw and bringing it up as a weapon in non-spiritual discussion to serve a non-spiritual line of argument is improper.
I make this mistake, too, but that should not stop you from being a better man than I.
@secondson saidThen find better speech, especially when creating a thread encouraging better posting.
It was a figure of speech.
@secondson saidCan you justify either of those insults? Or did it just feel good to write them?

I don't always agree with what Rajk has to say, but he invariably says exactly what he believes. Where is the lying in that? Are people who interpret scripture differently to yourself liars?
