    Colossians 1:15-23 make clear who the Living Jesus is. He is NOT the fictional Isa of the Qur'an. He is God almighty, the Creator of everyone and every thing, not a dead Prophet like Islam proclaims.

    Online Etymology Dictionary makes clear that the root of the word (church( comes from a pagan word for the building in which demons were worshipped. King James forced the authors of his KJV to use this word to translate the Greek word for "assembly " which is "eklessia".

  • Luke 12:47-49
  • 47 “That servant who knows his master’s will and does not get ready or does not do what his master wants will be beaten with many blows
  • From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.
  • Gary Patton on 04 Feb 13
     
    In Luke 12:47-49, Jesus clearly warns Christians thhat they will suffer severe consequences ...even in Christ... when we do not act on what we know to be right. Because Jesus died for our sins and rose from the grave to cover them as proof of His Father's acceptance of God the Son's sacrifice for our awful behaviour, does not mean He ignores our sin when we KNOW better.

    In Romans 5:3-5, of the New Covenant section of the Christian Bible, Jesus' Apostle (sent-out-one), Paul tells us what produces character. And building R-E-A-L character is what God is about during the earthly portion of a Jesus Follower's eternal life.

    Luke 12:47-4 seems to confirm a Biblical principle of justice that the more knowledge we have that our action is wrong, the more guilty we are, and the more deserving of punishment. gfp 2012-01-22

    2 Corinthians 4:3-4 makes clear that someone or something prevents many, called unbelievers in the Christian New Covenant (Testament) from hearing the "Gospel" (Good News") of Jesus of Nazareth. And the Biblical Jesus is NOT the Muslim Isa of the Islamic Qur'an regardless of what some Christians or churches teach.
