“know that a person is not justified by the works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law, because by the works of the law no one will be justified. “But if, in seeking to be justified in Christ, we Jews find ourselves also among the sinners, doesn’t that mean that Christ promotes sin? Absolutely not! If I rebuild what I destroyed, then I really would be a lawbreaker. “For through the law I died to the law so that I might live for God. I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!””

@manueljabayajr This is so true! God died for us that we might be free of our sins. God gives us the gift of a day daily that we all might use it for his glory. We should always show our appreciation for his sacrifice.

I know a shitbag christian by the name of @mathiasian.
He tries to censor people by downvoting them randomly. But only those who have less SP than him. Strangely. He's a bully like that. In real life, his favourite hobbies are cheerleading for Donald Trump whilst indulging in neo-Nazi jew hating.
I don't think there's anything in this poor "human's" life that he actually likes. Other than.... The book of AMOS.
Does Christ live in this guy, would you say?
Will he shepherd him to heaven some day? And do you think he could hurry things along?
