Not sure i am convinced because how do you explain the verse an eye for an eye
in the old testament there have always been consequences for wrong doing and stiill are for sin.If we believe the word then that word is from God not satan.As far as satan is concerned he uses violence as his tools of trade he works on our
fears and is limited to robbing stealing and destroying he does nt have anything else.Violence confirms to us that there is a spiritual battle going on both on the earthly plane and
in the heavenlys and the battle is over souls.The verse the kingdon of heaven is expanding and violent
people take it by force is referring to that spiritual battle and as satan uses violence to expand his dominion
so does God use violence to counter him.
So what does he mean by that term for me i think it is saying that the the force of evil that satan uses or violence is overcome by a greater violence or force a more powerful one that being the Love of Christ.Through the cross we see that clearly portrayed and
in our lives that very same battle is still happening right now for dominion be clear if we walk
in the flkesh satan will have dominion over us but if we walk according to the spirit and abide
in Christ we have freedom from our old nature.and satan.He can oppose us but he wont be able to influence us if we are
in Christ.

in fear of going to hell... My Parents are Atheists and say that I should just live my life without worrying about it and being nice to
people and being an overall good
person, and I'm not old enough to go to church,

in my head, and I would get scared.

I generally put this down to very religious
people (who have been raised with the concept that God is personally invested

Following Bonhoeffer's exposition of the Sermon on the Mount, he gives an exposition of Matthew 9:35 - 10:42.39 Short vignettes are drawn of the harvest (the
people are without a shepherd, without relief, deliverance, and forgiveness) for which one must pray for laborers; the call of the apostles (who are given power stronger than Satan's and are bound together only by their choice and call); the work (fulfilling their commission to preach, traveling as messengers of the King, living
in «royal poverty,» warning men of the urgency of the times); the suffering of the messengers (as Jesus was persecuted
so the messengers will be, but they are forewarned; because Christ will return the disciples are not to
fear man, or to be gullible
in thinking that «there is good
in every man «40); the decision (man's eternal destiny is determined by his decision on earth for the devil or for Christ); and the fruit (the disciples are fellow workers having as their goal the «salvation of the Church»).41
But religious love is only man's natural emotion of love directed to a religious object; religious
fear is only the ordinary

in a forest at twilight, or
in a mountain gorge; only this time it comes over us at the thought of our supernatural relations; and similarly of all the various sentiments which may be called into play
in the lives of religious
persons.

I agree with Bill Maher, but then again I'm a lifelong atheist... I have never believed for one minute that the god as portrayed
in the bible or koran has any possibility of being real to everyone, otherwise that god would make itself obvious and not hide behind man made lies and cultural practices that self perpetuate thanks fo
fear... otherwise there would not be several thousand man made religions trying to claim that god as their own... yes, it is an opinion, only valid to the opinion holder and no one else... Bill, thanks for
so strongly making that point, not that it makes any difference to god
fearing people... they will hold on to their opinion as strongly as they hold on to their shotgun, thinking that each provides them with some form of security... to intelligent
people, neither is secure and neither leads to true freedom of the mind...

in the boat that was to test his disciples faith and they failed the test.Jesus rebuked the storm there was a power that was out to destroy them why else would he rebuke it maybe he was waiting foir them to rebuke it themselves they had prayed for
people and seen healing they had commanded evil spirit to come out of
people so they were aware of the power of God.Yet they were
in fear of there lives faithless and afriad.Paul on his way to rome was caught
in a storm and through an angel paul was told many would die Paul interceeded for the crew and lives on board and God promised that all would be spared.Paul had warned them before the voyage that it would end
in disaster but they did not listen.Satan wasnt happy with that plan because he had hoped to kill as many
people as possible there was over 300 souls on board and many had been expected to die.
So satan attempted to kill Paul and he was bitten by a snake but satan is no match for Jesus Christ he has been defeated and
so Paul lived and continued to preach the gospel was many being saved.brentnz

in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord: And,
in so much as we know that, by His divine law, nations, like individuals, are subjected to punishments and chastisements
in this world, may we not justly
