Bible verses you like
Jun 23rd, 2008 at 3:35pm
 
You don't have to be religious, I wouldn't even call myself Christian anymore, just a believer in God, however I have a Christian background.

Also, I reckon Jesus had narcissistic personality disorder, as he would go around saying he was the Son of Man (God) yet we are all God's children. He also said anyone can do what he has done, so yeah maybe he wasn't that awesome. I might be going to suffer damnation now.

Here's one I like:
Quote:
Ephesians 6:12
12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.


Basically it is telling us the Government is bad and we need to fight against them.

This is something I approve of.

What parts of it do you like?

The turning the other cheek bit. It reminds of Ghandi. I've seen it done once or twice and it can really put people on the back foot.

Yep, that was pretty cool too.

Megadeth have an excellent version of the lord's prayer on their latest album.

Song of Songs 

2 Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth—
      for your love is more delightful than wine.

3 Pleasing is the fragrance of your perfumes;
      your name is like perfume poured out.
      No wonder the maidens love you!

4 Take me away with you—let us hurry!
      Let the king bring me into his chambers.

4:5 "Your two breasts are like two fawns, like twin fawns of a gazelle that browse among the lilies."

8:1-3 "If only you were to me like a brother, who was nursed at my mother's breasts! Then, if I found you outside, I would kiss you, and no one would despise me. I would lead you and bring you to my mother's house-- she who has taught me. I would give you spiced wine to drink, the nectar of my pomegranates. His left arm is under my head and his right arm embraces me."

Some nice poetry there.

Last time someone turned the other cheek, I slapped that one too.

No, Im saying turning the other cheek is for pussies, invented by pussies to cover up their weakness.

"On hearing this, Jesus said, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.
But go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy, not sacrifice.'
For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."

Matthew 9:12,13

"This is the end, my only friend, the end"

Actually, that may have been Jim, rather than Jesus? Roll Eyes

I was joking of course, but it does make me reflect on the power of music, and it's ability to touch people on an emotional, intellectual, and spiritual level, can serve as a great catalyst for change.

Personally I find it very inspirational, this link is to the 'Leningrad Cowboys', performing "Sweet Home Alabama", with the Red Army Choir, I just love how music can transcend cultural divides, perhaps more music will help us bridge more cultural divides.

Yeah, they was dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Lay down the boogie and play that funky music till you die
Till you die
