Jesus said not everyone who thinks they are a Christian will be in the Kingdom.. Jesus said, Depart from me, I never knew you. They were led by satan , who comes to steal , kill and destroy all people.

“Both brothers were subjected to physical punishment in the hopes that each would confess to prior sins and ask for forgiveness,” Chief Michael S. Inserra of the New Hartford Police Department said at a news conference on Wednesday.

What a disgusting an foul religion would promote something like this? We should burn the bible and outlaw any Christian immigrants from entering this country because they clearly are all violent maniacs.
Aren't you a cute and clever one!

We both know this had absolutely nothing to do with Jesus, those people tortured these two kids to assert their authority and power over them.

I think the people that attended the Church would have a better idea of wehther they were Christians than some random lady. They were clearly Christians. They worship this Jesus guy and do all of this in his name.

Have you ever thought about moving to another country? i am sure there must be one that might consider taking you, but with your reasoning, I am not even sure about that!!!!!

There are many churches/denominations that give Christians a bad name. Unfortunately, they have been front and center lately, with Kim Davis, the very old woman that got thrown out of her church for not tithing, the young gay man that got a letter from his church asking that he leave, the perpetually angry Huckabee . . . . . all this is television and internet fodder.

But - there are many churches that are NOTHING like this - nor do they beat children or anyone.

Because a man choses to defame the name of Jesus, by doing ungodly things, the man needs to be dealt with, not as a christian but the wicked man he has proven himself to be.
Christians have been at the fore front of forgiveness and helping people around the world freely and with out renumeration .
Evil men, pretend to be christians, doing many things wrong and attempt to sway the world , but there are no new testament scriptures to support their actions .
Unlike the Quran that out right teaches killing christians, and jews, which surprisingly existed long before Mohammed. 600 years to be exact.

Why are you lying? Don't want to the terrible violent religion known as Christianity look bad?

Native Americans and Christianity - RationalWiki

One option that had always proven successful was simply to threaten to kill those who did not convert.



It also happened in Europe to Jews during the Inquisition.


Jews had to endure the sword too. Millions of Jews from the fourth century CE until the 20th Century were forced to “kiss the sword” of Christ, or be put to death by that sword. Therefore, many, many Jews died at the hands of Christians in the name of Jesus. Fortunately, many Jews managed to survive. They survived by lying―they converted, but secretly remained Jews. The Christian Church finally realized what was happening and in 1492, the Spanish Inquisition tried to purge the country of these “Secret” Jews, called Marranos.

CONVERT TO CHRISTIANITY OR DIE

If they worshipped Jesus they would know what they were doing was not right........many people think they have a place in Heaven by calling themselves Christian. There is more to it than that...........
