the rules of being christians. cause it says so in the bible?

Question

Kill those who are not Christian or Jewish:

You must kill those who worship another god. Exodus 22:20

Kill any friends or family that worship a god that is different than your own. Deuteronomy 13:6-10

Kill all the inhabitants of any city where you find people that worship differently than you. Deuteronomy 13:12-16

Kill everyone who has religious views that are different than your own. Deuteronomy 17:2-7

Kill anyone who refuses to listen to a priest. Deuteronomy 17:12-13

Kill any false prophets. Deuteronomy 18:20

Any city that doesn’t receive the followers of Jesus will be destroyed in a manner even more savage than that of Sodom and Gomorrah. Mark 6:11

Jude reminds us that God destroys those who don’t believe in him. Jude 5



Ignorance is bliss. Christians should not practice free inquiry nor socialize with non Christians:

Don’t associate with non-Christians. Don’t receive them into your house or even exchange greeting with them. 2 John 1:10

Shun those who disagree with your religious views. Romans 16:17

Paul, knowing that their faith would crumble if subjected to free and critical inquiry, tells his followers to avoid philosophy. Colossians 2:8



Judge other religions for not following Christ:

Whoever denies “that Jesus is the Christ” is a liar and an anti-Christ. 1 John 2:22

Christians are “of God;” everyone else is wicked. 1 John 5:19

The non-Christian is “a deceiver and an anti-Christ” 2 John 1:7

Anyone who doesn’t share Paul’s beliefs has “an evil heart.” Hebrews 3:12

False Jews are members of “the synagogue of Satan.” Revelations 2:9, 3:9



Here are my two personal favorites:

Everyone will have to worship Jesus -- whether they want to or not. Philippians 2:10

A Christian can not be accused of any wrongdoing. Romans 8:33

Answer 1

Isn't the "Bible Handbook" American Atheist Press, a wonderful tool to shove their Buy-Bull back down their throats.

Answer 2

Woa, I think you're being a little over-zealous. I know zeal is a good thing, especially amongst us believers, but you have to realize something . . . . . all the OT verses you quoted . . . that was under the old covenant, back then you still had to sacrifice animals for your sins!
With some of your NT verses, you've taken them out of context!
For example . . . . . Your Romans verse 8:33 - you say that it says that a Christian can't be accused of any wrong doing. First of all, Christians are sinners too, you have to understand that. So technically, we do wrong all the time, we are not perfect. Second, take that verse in it's context . . . "What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?" (Romans 8:31-35) These verses are saying that we shouldn't be worried about what other people say/think, because Christ has the power over all these things. God is on our side, He makes intercession for us to God Himself! He's not going to let His people go through life, sinning and literally trashing the name of Christ just because Christians "can not be accused of any wrongdoing."
And just so you know, Revelation is an "alagory" a picture of things to come, it can NOT be taken literally.
Finally, you're talking about people "judging" other people for their faith, condemning them for their beliefs . . . . keep in mind Jesus reached out to the sinners, the un wanted members of society, the terminally ill, the demon posessed - he willingly and gladly forgave all who repented. But when it came down to it, Jesus did judge the people who knew better - like the Pharisees and Saducees who were willingly and knowingly leading the people astray, Jesus went to far as to call them a "brood of vipers"
My point: Christ alone can judge humanity. No one else is qualified.

Answer 3

Nope. Your talking religious dogma. The only rule to Christianity is to "follow" Christ.

Answer 4

I forgive your ignorance of God's word and your blaspheming of the Holy Spirit. Slam me all you want to----I do not care because I can take anything that you dish out. I am not your judge, however, God is. You will have to answer to him for your conduct.

Answer 5

taken way out of context and setting and youre just a loser trying to prove a point that aint even valid so shut up

Answer 6

Does this mean you are a Christian?

Answer 7

sounds about right

Answer 8

Wonderful thing religion.............jeeze.
