I've now asked you several times for a NT scripture. Remember? Quid pro quo Eladar. You reject my claim about the sin of gluttony and demanded at NT reference, I'm asking you for NT references to support your claim?

It seems to me that you have just pulled this no ...[text shortened]... r reason than it fits with your current mood, the thread title and your opinion about something.

15 For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing, 16 to one a fragrance from death to death, to the other a fragrance from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things? 17 For we are not, like so many, peddlers of God's word, but as men of sincerity, as commissioned by God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.

You really are wriggling now; I threw you that titbit about the thread title and you gobbled it up.

The OP'r is an atheist/paganist and you, a Christian, are using his claims as somehow an excuse for you to chime in with something off of the top of your head...really?

You should just retract it.

The aroma of death is described as poison in this thread.

Nice quote.

Yes, you are one of the dead.

I was speaking specifically about this paticular discussion. But perhaps you are as blind to the fact that you lost this discussion as you are blind to your spiritual state.

John 12:32 (John quoting Jesus)
"When I am lifted up from the earth (his crucifixion) I will draw ALL men to myself."

Doesn't sound like "poison" to me.

But then I don't use the gospel of Jesus Christ, or biblical scripture as a weapon against the my detractors, as some are fond of doing.
