Jesus wants some people damned

Do you think Peter knew better than Jesus? Jesus was the one who made the claim.

I only see your claim. Which claim did Jesus make?

Maybe I should have staryed earlier.

The disciples came to him and asked, “Why do you speak to the people in parables?”

11 He replied, “Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them.

So Jesus did not specifically say he wants people damned?

Jesus spoke in parables because he didn't want some people saved


Matthew 13

1 He replied, “Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. 12 Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them. 13 This is why I speak ...[text shortened]... to understand with their hearts and turn. Why? Then he'd have to heal them and they'd be saved.

Be careful how you interpret scripture, it can be very tricky

He said he didn't want them to know the truth and repent.

Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their hearts
and turn, and I would heal them.’[a]

Have you forgiven your Catholic priest?

2 Peter 3:9

The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

He is warped, we are to lift Jesus up, he smears Christ when ever possible.

You smear Jesus by espousing false doctrine, hoping to change people after they say they accept the false Jesus you espouse.

Are you recovered from your priest's special attention?

Don't dodge the question? Did you forgive him or did you enjoy it?

Are you one of them?
