When Christ cleansed that temple out was he being charitable and was it done in LOVE?

1) Be charitable. It will drive your opponents nuts.
This only covers comments, to bad it does not cover anti-religion threads that are only created to bash a certain religion and to illicit negative diologue. That gets a wink and a nod sometimes.
Maybe they shouldn’t be posting things that do nothing but say “Our faith is better than your faith”
I’m encouaged that the writer didn’t ask WWPD (what would the Pope do)?
Just kidding.
But, but, what if you're a lazy clod and you just can't help it? I know, no excuses just like my TI use to say. Good ideas.
Good advice.Although, I admit I opened it at first becauseI misread and thoughtit said: Holier than thou. :)
Very good points, all! Thanks for posting.
17) Don’t clutter up otherwise good sites with fluff from phony baloney, blow dried, TV preachers and then run tattling to the mod when people complain.
Yes.
Absolutely!
They were stealing from both God and the people, it was Christ's love of both God and his fellow man that compelled him to clean out the Temple of the thieves.
Well done!
Ha! TM4 the thread killer I am!
We have (1) Prayer, (2) Devotional, (3) Caucus, and (4) Ecumenic threads. These appear to be working just fine, as it is. The only "problems" you run into are on the "open threads" ... and that's another story altogether, and I think the open threads should be left wide-open and left alone as they are.
Prayer threads are closed to debate of any kind.
Devotional threads are closed to debate of any kind.
Caucus threads are closed to any poster who is not a member of the caucus.
For instance, if it says “Catholic Caucus” and you are not Catholic, do not post to the thread. However, if the poster of the caucus invites you, I will not boot you from the thread.
The “caucus” article and posts must not compare beliefs or speak in behalf of a belief outside the caucus.
Ecumenic threads are closed to antagonism.

Exactly.... Jesus, Himself, would be called "unchristian" by many ... LOL ... And in some countries, He would be accused of "hate speech" too ... hoo-boy!
Anyone who wants to promote this idea of being "more christian" than Jesus was in His life on this earth and more "christian" than what the Bible says in God's Word -- is simply trying to promote some version of "hate speech" and silence people from speaking the true Word of God.

The Gospel, per the Scriptures -- says that all other "religions" are worthless and are "absolute garbage" (uses words worse than this) -- and leads straight to hell.
All other religions are worthless, according to God ... there is only "one way" and that way is by way of Jesus, as the Messiah of Israel and no other way (no organization on earth, no church body, no group, no-nothing)...
If one follows the Bible and what it says, then they will be telling all those others that they are following a worthless religion which will lead straight to hell and the lake of fire for eternal torment.
