Russian Orthodox wearing $34,000 watch? Miracles?
Those, Islamski’s. Gotta get up early to get one over on them. Right?
Apparently, they have caught the Russian Orthodox being unfaithful to Russian Orthodox ..dogmas. So one lying wolf catches another at being self-invalidating and hypocritical.
Tell it to this guy.
dead corpse of Islam
After they killed him with lies, the Islamics used the photo of his dead body to write a theological post on Islamic miracles in which to entrap other unsuspecting yet dissatisfied persons in the lies of Islam: supposedly the mere photo of his dead body is supposed to be proof it isn’t rotting because he was a ‘martyr’. There are even special terms to supposedly be indicative of special/supernatural insight. Supposedly, Iman Ahamed has it all worked out in conjunction with his other cohorts: certain classes of miracles ..happen more often than others and they happen to be happening more in these days ..if you are a mujaheddin. This photo supposedly proves it.

While the Russian Orthodox are lying too, at least they got a watch out of it. Thirty four grand worth. Everything that goes around comes around. But until it does, while the dead guy is saying “May I please have some water?” in Sheol, the Russian Orthodox guy is looking at his watch to see it if its supper time yet.
Neither one is righteous before God on their best day. God will not justify one over the other because they have rejected Jesus Christ and killed His servants with blood lust.
1John 4:5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.

Christian Clarity Review 
No Orthodox Christian “dogma” is against wearing expensive-looking watches (and it doesn’t matter what country they live in, Russia or elsewhere). Clergy are given all kinds of gifts — by grateful laity, in Patriarchs’ cases by politicians, diplomats — if it isn’t a cheap knockoff in the first place. And someone else has a problem with clergy parking in front of their own Cathedral? Who’s going to lead the services?! Doesn’t your preacher have a reserved space? Asceticism is a good idea for everybody, but nobody’s perfect or infallible. If they were hyper-ascetic, I could quote you Matthew 11:16-30.
What I didn’t know was that many Muslim scholars believe in the incorruptibility of the prophets’ bodies after death, which they seem to have gotten from Ancient, Orthodox Christianity. Salvation is God-like-ness, unity with God’s Uncreated Divine Energies, one effect of which can be preservation of the body of the saved after death … surely you know the Scriptural citations. I’ve never heard that Protestantism teaches this anymore, since it was founded just a few centuries ago, while Catholicism does but forgets the reason since it stopped distinguishing between God’s (and everybody’s/everything’s) essence and energies.
In any case, I believe Calvinism still preaches not to worry about the splinter in someone else’s eye, but the plank in one’s own eye. For all you know, the Patriarch and the Muslim could be “predestined for heaven,” and yourself for the other place. Is your wealth a blessing … or a temptation, even a curse, or God “handing you over to satan”?
Happy Easter!
Happy Easter to you.
Calvinism is simply a name pushed on the truth of Scripture by its enemies and then taken up by new creatures in Jesus Christ as one description. It’s actually as old as actual and non-metaphorical salvation.
The lie of bodily incorruptibility in false religions comes from the actual fact of:
2Kings 13:21 And it came to pass as they were burying a man, that behold, they saw the band, and they cast the man into the sepulchre of Elisha; and the man went down , and touched the bones of Elisha, and he revived, and stood upon his feet.
You really ought to know that one: the lie of ‘holy relics’ is built on that one. It says “bones”, not “the preserved flesh of”..
but that never stopped a Catholic or an Eastern Orthodox from lying. Seems I heard of one Orthodox who wore a bag around his neck that had a piece of the spleen of John the Baptist. Liver. Giblet. Something like that. Somewhere in Cleveland I think. Recently. No joke.
God takes the planks out of our eyes. It’s called being born again. I suppose it a Catholic maxim that no one ever gets sight so everyone can easily say to each other “hey! what about that plank in your eye!?” and go on their merry sinful way. It would be to a sexual predator’s advantage to teach that wouldn’t it?
Don’t the Catholics and Eastern Orthodox run out of Jesus and need a refill with the ‘real presence’? And even then its not enough so you need a purgatory while you deny new birth and the Word of God?
We can trade barbs pretty much indefinitely. Yours will be lies and all mine will be true.
Checked your altar boys for AIDs lately?
Your parishes for bankruptcy?
Your mafia families for orthodoxy?
keep it comin’. Everybody knows its all you have because you don’t have Christ.
and this reply is not half as obnoxious as your priests covering up lies, sexual deviancy, organized crime and deceit to make money and kill souls.
nothing you ever encounter is going to be as obnoxious as the lake of fire. God is the coldest thing you’ll ever meet toward the wicked. You can quote me on that.
..and those people telling you God doesn’t laugh at your lies?
Psalm 2:4 He that dwelleth in the heavens shall laugh, the Lord shall have them in derision.
Psalm 37:12,13 The wicked plotteth against the righteous, and gnasheth his teeth against him. The Lord laugheth at him; for he seeth that his day is coming.
