EXCUSE ME!!!!!!!! is no one going to comment on stacey's video? are we all just nodding our heads here? yes, yes, God, Brahmin, Allah, they are all the same? sorry to single you out stacey but that video is NEW AGE GARBAGE.
remember paul in athens, surrounded by statues of their various gods. and he found one called "the unknown god". did he say, "ok athenites, you got it right here, all these gods you worship, they are one, they are it, they are god." NO!!!!!!! what on earth is an IDOL if everything anyone calls god is GOD!!!!?
?? i hope and pray i am not the only one to take issue with this absolute blasphemy sneaking it's way on this forum.
acts 17:16 Now while Paul was awaiting them at Athens, his spirit was grieved and roused to anger as he saw that the city was full of idols. 17So he reasoned and argued in the synagogue with the Jews and those who worshiped there, and in the marketplace [where assemblies are held] day after day with any who chanced to be there. 18And some also of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers encountered him and began to engage in discussion. And some said, What is this babbler with his scrap-heap learning trying to say? Others said, He seems to be an announcer of foreign deities--because he preached Jesus and the resurrection. 19And they took hold of him and brought him to the [c]Areopagus [Mars Hill meeting place], saying, May we know what this novel (unheard of and unprecedented) teaching is which you are openly declaring? 20For you set forth some startling things, foreign and strange to our ears; we wish to know therefore just what these things mean-- 21For the Athenians, all of them, and the foreign residents and visitors among them spent all their leisure time in nothing except telling or hearing something newer than the last-- 22So Paul, standing in the center of the Areopagus [Mars Hill meeting place], said: Men of Athens, I perceive in every way [on every hand and with every turn I make] that you are most religious or very reverent to demons.
23For as I passed along and carefully observed your objects of worship, I came also upon an altar with this inscription, To the unknown god. Now what you are already worshiping as unknown, this I set forth to you. 24The God Who produced and formed the world and all things in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in handmade shrines. 25Neither is He served by human hands, as though He lacked anything, for it is He Himself Whogives life and breath and all things to all [people].(A)
