Why Did Jesus Cleanse the Temple?

You said it. Blah blah blah.

We are not arrogant to say "Thankyou Lord Jesus, I am SAVED." That is Rajk999ism, to condemn Christians for proclaiming the facts of our salvation.

It is not different from our being, according to the pure word of God - [b]partakers of the divine nature.

"Lord Jesus. Thankyou. Thankyou Lord that we are partakers of the divine nature. ...[text shortened]... who through faith and long-suffering are inheriting the promises." (Hebrews 6:12) [/b]

What are you on about ?

Who even reads all this fluff?
Rajk leads you to water time and time again and you refuse to drink, time and time again.
We are in the very basics of building a new society. Your help would be greatly appreciated

There is only one delusion in all of religion, and it is the belief that you can enter the Kingdom of God without being righteous and without doing good works.

You're deluded if you think you will enter the Kingdom of God with the righteousness you acquired by your good works.

God's Word is the seed. Plant it in the soil of your heart and see if it bears fruit.

Or you can stick your witty quips on your fridge. Or you can post them here. Your choice.

And when it bears fruit you say ' Bah' because you have not eyes to see

"We are in the very basics of building a new society."

They've been saying that for thousands of years. You're drinking the water that will leave you thirsty again. Come to Jesus and drink of the fountain of life.

Rajk won't tell you that. Instead he'll tell you to dig a well so that God can pat you on the back and thank you for it. Rajk will never tell you about the cross of Christ.

“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.”

(1 Corinthians 1:18)

The Word says Jesus died on the cross for your sins. Do you believe that?

What is the fruit of that Word in your life?

I know Jesus

He's an exacting taskmaster to be sure.
God bless us all

No, I believe we need to account for our own transgressions. However Jesus will forgive those that make a genuine effort

You are very stupid if you think I believe that. You are a very slow learner.

I have constantly said the following :
1. I believe in God and in Christ.
2. That Christ died for the sins of the world including mine
3. That one enters the Kingdom of God through Christ who judge the heart of man.
4. That followers of Christ enter the Kingdom of God.
5. Nobody enters the Kingdom by a mouth profession of faith.

Christians like you are not the sheep of Christ because do neither follow Christ nor do you preach the doctrine of Christ.

No? So you're saying you don't believe that Jesus died on the cross for your sins?

But still you can't say that Jesus was raised from the dead, literally.

You're good at paying lip service to certain basic Bible doctrines while denigrating and insulting people.

I wonder if you know the difference between mercy and grace.

Where did you get the idea that I cannot say that.
Jesus died and was buried and was raised from the dead.
I know the Bible. I understand the Bible
I know Gods purpose. I understand Gods purpose.
I believe that the Bible is the inspired word of God.

You cannot say that becuase you lack the understanding to appreciate anything but your flawed half a doctrine of Paul

Jesus does not want lip service , he suggests action
