Ok.. I just notice your triggers when it comes to Zema you get really mad when she calls you "White Supremacist" why do you get real upset when she calls you that?

I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace (Ephesians 4:1-3).

So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves (Philippians 2:1-3).

Matthew 5:43-48New International Version (NIV)


43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor[a] and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.





Romans 12:9
Romans 12New International Version (NIV)

A Love in Action

9 Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. 10 Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. 11 Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. 12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. 13 Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.

14 Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. 15 Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. 16 Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position.[c] Do not be conceited.

17 Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. 18 If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. 19 Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,”[d] says the Lord. 20 On the contrary:


“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”[e]

21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

This has been going on for more than a year now, even much further than this thread. The amount of members she has slandered, run off, and had these types of abusive conversations with are countless: http://forum.holyculture.net/showthr...LOR-(facebook)

Quote from David: You aren't losing your mind. People who love to dwell on the injustices of the world while ignoring the True Solution will continue to become bitter and irrational. Salvation comes through Christ, not social activism. Your observation about the source of this here is spot on. This man doesn't have good intentions. On the apoint, look at what the majority of Zema's sources are for her posts. She quotes from Marxist websites, and guys like Alex Jones, Louis Farrahkkkan, and haters like this one. She never sources from biblical Christians. She never discusses the issues in the light of scripture besides her one verse she uses to justify her crusade. She marginalizes other believes on this site if they don't kowtow to her beliefs. I see no Christian humility or grace in her interactions here. What does all that tell you about the veracity of her premise? She is on the path to hell and will take everyone who listens to her with her. Yes, she NEEDS prayer. Those of you here that have a rapport with her, reach out to her and don't let her die.

Quote from Josh: Where are the mods to lay down the bans? It's the same threads about race that keeps on getting posted, yet we have an official thread for this to be posted in. Even in that thread there's only Zema and Lupe that mainly post in there. This combativeness is not going to change anyone's views on the matter. We've had debate after debate on this topic with no real solution.

Quote from Benjamin: Zema, you are actually turning Scripture on its head. You're making a virtue of questioning anyone's salvation. This is the exact opposite of what we should do. A credible profession of faith, the application of the signs of God's covenant (baptism and communion) and the absence of damnable heresy and/or conscious, unrepentant sin in the face of rebuke is more than enough to give every Christian a charitable judgment.

If I were to take your advice I have every reason to believe that everyone is a potential false convert and no one's salvation can be known at all. That is NOT what we are commanded to do and you've gone way too far in your comments.

Quote from Benjamin Fine. Continue questioning your own salvation and those of everyone around you. But don't be shocked when this leads to a shriveled unloving, bitter, angry, self-righteous, Pharisaical, hardened heart. I pray not.

Everything has been tried by so many people. I'm tired...really, really tired. This type of hatred really zaps the spirit filled life out of a person.

Most people are not truly moral relativists.

[MalabarThePhilosopher]

Some Christians seem to maintain that many non-believers are relativists, but I don't think that's really the case. I think most people, if not all, do believe deep down that some things truly are wrong or right, even if not based on God's judgment. Of course, I do think there needs to be a God for objective moral values, but people can still believe that there are objective moral values even if God is not the standard. Moral relativism is horrible and has been subject to criticism not only from Christians, but secular philosophers such as Bernard Williams.

And of course, I won't assume that everyone here agrees with me, so if you disagree with me, the ball is in your court, so feel free to respond. I'm sure that quality counter-arguments can be made.

I don't get the NF Hype. But I'm glad he's doing well.

Which songs have you heard? As you've probably noticed, I like NF quite a lot. I wish he would have made Relevant Magazine's top 10 of 2016 list rather than Beyonce.
