Lol. Your message was conveyed exactly how it was intended. You just realized you pissed off a major voting bloc that put you in office. We’re not tolerating this kind of rhetoric from you guys anymore. We are done. https://t.co/69ampUuuaC

Yeah, that's the problem with a rigid two-party system: You have to chose the lesser of two evils.BaileyAg said:
As a conservative Christian who's also a Republican...
The Republican party does not speak for me or my beliefs on a number of things.
They're just the best alternative at this time.

Except Omar only cares because she can take a shot at a Republican.
Omar has no love for Christianity or Jews.
We've been so conditioned to attack Christianity and to know there will be no repercussions. Not in a million years would he respond with the word bigoted to that racist POS muslim from Minnesota if she tweeted about allah. He'd know that was the end of his career. Instead the left and many from the right will think there's nothing wrong with what he did.yawny06 said:
I was looking for the tweet that was so offensive…pretty much what any Bible believing Christian would say.
Guess freedom of religion and speech doesn't apply unless it passes the litmus test.
Do those dolts go around looking for Muslims tweeting about Allah? Morons.

So this Lizzie person is some rando that posted this and the congressman attacked her? Odd.

Amen, "Religious Tolerance" is not a Christian virtue. "Go and make disciples of all nation, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit" is our commission.Four Seasons Landscaping said:
The irony of this kind of cliched outrage over evangelism is that if somebody is actually a Christian, the truly evil thing for them to do would be for them NOT to try to convert you.
Yes. He told her to delete her tweet (kinda goes against the freedom of religion he's so proud of).Quote:
"Religious freedom in the United States applies to every religion."
Am I missing something? Is this not true, per the vision of the founding fathers?

Actually Jesus would be very much in favor of freedom of religion.
He never once tried to force people to follow him; it was always a choice and it still is today.
He would never be in favor of Christianity being like Islam, which is convert or die.

You are high. He said "I am the way, the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me".
The Good Shepherd does not let the single sheep wander around aimlessly and say "you're good, just do you" he leaves the 99 to bring the 1 back into the Fold.

He said "I am the way, the Truth and the Life," but he never said follow me or die. Like Rapier said, "It's a choice," to follow or not. Jesus gave people miracles and the word of God, but whether they made the choice to believe in and accept him was up to them. Forced faith isn't faith at all.

It's even worse than follow him or die. It's follow him or risk damnation.
Does the Good Shepherd allow the lost sheep to roam? Or does he bring them back to the flock?
That's a completely different discussion.AGC said:Rapier108 said:

So what happens when He comes back?
OK, so in the Beginning was God the Father, there was also the Son of God, he shows up a few places in the Old Testament but mainly in the new Testament as Jesus. They both tag team to pour forth the Holy Spirit, it may seem like this is a process but it actually happened all outside of time and they're co-eternal. Now it's going to get a little complicated as we go on so stop me if you have questions......AGC said:Dies Irae said:ABATTBQ11 said:Dies Irae said:Rapier108 said:

Probably not the thread to point out the incomplete theology that views Jesus' time on earth as the fullness of His person rather than including everything before and after. That would take a lot of posts.
