Your favorite quote from the Bible

My favorite quote? Thats easy.

"Yippee kai ya motha fu#*ker"

Thats my favorite quote. Oh wait , we\'re talking about the bible? Oops. :o

Slaves
Hebrews born to serve, to the pharaoh
Heed
To his every word, live in fear
Faith
Of the unknown one, the deliverer
Wait
Something must be done, four hundred years

So let it be written, so let it be done
I\'m sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written, so let it be done
To kill the first born pharaoh son
I\'m creeping death

Now
Let my people go, land of Goshen
Go
I will be with thee, bush of fire
Blood
Running red and strong down the Nile
Plague
Darkness three days long, hail to fire

So let it be written, so let it be done
I\'m sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written, so let it be done
To kill the first-born pharaoh son
I\'m creeping death

Die by my hand
I creep across the land
Killing first-born man

Die by my hand
I creep across the land
Killing first-born man

I
Rule the midnight air, the destroyer
Born
I shall soon be there, deadly mass
I
Creep the steps and floor, final darkness
Blood
Lamb\'s blood, painted doors, I shall pass

So let it be written, so let it be done
I\'m sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written, so let it be done
To kill the first-born pharaoh son
I\'m creeping death

God intended for the bible to be translated so everyone could understand it. Thats the whole idea behind bringing new believers to follow Christ...it\'d be a little difficult to save people if the bible wasnt translated. The only words that are even changed or say "thee", which would be "you" in todays terms.  Just insignifcant things like that...the bible it\'s self hasnt changed a bit.

I think you need to read the Bible more, son.  :iono:

Seriously, just find your favorite verse, and next time you\'re in a bookstore, look it up in 4 or 5 different versions of the book.  They change more than "thee" and "you."  It\'s not hard to produce dramatic changes in meaning with even the simplist different choices in translation.

sigh, again...basically they just change simple words. Like from the King James to the NIV.  I can also asure you, if you took the bible back when it was first originally put togeather in it\'s full form and then one of todays bibles it would be about 98 percent of the same message.  Please dont make me get into a debate with you about this.


I\'ll pull out my NIV or NAS, then a King James tommorow and show you what I mean.  But when Im reading along in all Bibles I get the exact same message...thats really all Im saying.

It\'s times like this when I really wish I could moderate topics, just to delete half of the shit posted in this topic.  I was actually interested in reading this as a real topic.  All you who couldn\'t take it seriously or thought this was your opportunity to take the thread in a totally different direction from where it was intended, fuck you.

The fact that Clowd posted the topic also should make no difference.  If I had posted this topic, would you be replying differently?

Although you later said this wasn\'t directed at anyone, I feel compelled to answer. Clowd is notorious in religious debates. I have my doubts about his intelligence, but I won\'t go further into that here.

Besides, anyone has the right to post their opinion here. Even Clowd for that matter. But you must still be prepared to face other opinions than your own (i.e. Bible bashing, jokes and the like). If YOU (generally speaking) can\'t take that, then perhaps YOU shouldn\'t be reading this thread in the first place.

Again, let me stress how I don\'t think posting a serious discussion about the bible in the (infamous?) OT part of PSX2Central is a good idea. It can NOT have come as a surprise to anyone that he wouldn\'t only get 100% serious posters in the thread. If he or anyone else can\'t deal with that, then they might consider:

- posting it at a serious religious forum
- accept the possibility of \'jokers\'
- not posting it in the first place

If I posted a poem I worte about how baby bunnies make me cry, I would expect to have peeps jump all over my shit. Anytime you
wear your beliefs and your heart on your sleeve in public, expect
to be picked on here. It\'s that simple. If you want a serious bible
discussion, go to a bible forum. This isn\'t a support group, it\'s an
off-topic forum. Unless I broke the forum rules, then I\'ll post any
jokes I want about anything I want.

First of all, I don\'t think the fact that Clowd posted it should have any bearing on how the thread is treated.  Sure he has a bad history with this stuff, and I know that as well as anyone.  I\'m usually the first person arguing against what he\'s saying.  But I think that until he does something wrong in this thread, which he hasn\'t, you can\'t hold that against him here.

As for the whole being prepared to face opinions other than your own, fine.  The people who posted bible quotes that showed things bad about the christian religion, even those are fine.  But the people who just came in here to post something mindlessly bashing Clowd or religion are out of place.  First of all, it is off the topic which was posted, something that posts are deleted for at times in other topics.  If you wanna post something else about religion, fine.  Make a new topic.  But there are people here who wanted to see where this topic would go on the topic it was posted as.  I think it\'s only fair to give those people a chance to see that, without posting the amount of totally needless, mindless, and pointless bashing content that people have.  

Chizzy, you didn\'t break a rule.  You didn\'t do anything wrong by the forum rules.  I just suppose I sometimes expect people to have a little common courtacy and respect, and show a bit of maturity.  Then again, I guess as you all said, if I\'m expecting any of that, I\'m in the wrong place.

Shockwaves is absolutly right. Funny if you guys were talkin about monster trucks or you\'re favorite 80\'s cartoon, and I were to post mindless blabber, I would have people all over my ass and then get banned for a week. How about moderators quit holding people to different standards and start enforcing some f**king rules around here. It\'s bullcrap.

I\'d like to know why what I posted was mindless blabber.

Waiting to capture that moment
Postponement
Suspension of rational movement

And bang on the hour of twelve
To a forest clearing we\'ll delve
With guns to our heads
For we know
That Heaven awaits us

Dreaming of that perfect home by the Sun
Run! Christian, Run!

Roaming
Roaming from all tribulation

Leaving
Leaving behind all damnation

With women and children in line
The men will then gather behind
With knives to their throats
They\'ll depart on the midnight train to Jordan.

Still dreaming of that perfect home by the Sun
Run! Christian, Run!

Still wishing for that perfect home by the Sun
Come! Kingdom, Come!

-super furry animals: Run! Christian, Run!

 

Get real here people. Topics change in almost every post. Just because YOU don\'t like it doesn\'t mean it won\'t happen. Live with it.

Cause the mods do it to,If they banned people for doing that they would be hypocrites.

I actually agree as well.  I\'ve kept from posting in this thread because I didn\'t want to come off as a dick.  I figured I\'d just jump in, rag on Racer, and leave.

This topic should be about bible verses.  God knows we\'ve had enough discussions about the bible.  May as well have one where people can post scriptures.  I for one wouldn\'t read half of what you guys wrote because it doesn\'t interest my in the slightest.  Only reason I am even replying is because I have a differing opinion than Samwise.

Topics do change sometimes, actually quite often, but people do come down on the people who change the topic so why not here as well.
