Two men can take the same action but for very different reasons. For example, "Some, to be sure, are preaching Christ even from envy and strife, but some also from good will; the latter do it out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel; the former proclaim Christ out of selfish ambition rather than from pure motives, thinking to cause me affliction in my chains." - Philippians 1:15-17 The actions themselves are not faith. Jesus and Pharisees both recited scripture, but the latter did not do so out of faith in God, but rather believing in themselves for their own selfish ambition. |

And a poor widow came and put in two lepta, which amount to a quadrans. And calling His disciples to Him, He said to them, 'Truly I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all those putting money into the treasury; for they all put in out of their surplus, but she, out of her poverty, put in all she owned, all she had to live on.'" - Mark 12:41-44 |

Quoting: Weyoun You're confusing belief with faith. The bible says that the devil believes in God and trembles. You are confusing belief and belief in. Faith is belief in, not mere belief. Where does Bible say demons believe in God? |

Soulless fake humans are already AI. They get triggered by particular words, symbols etc. They can't really bother about the meaning. They just look for the trigger words. Their language & comprehension skills are 0. Some bots have bods, others don't. Cara Is Spirit |

User ID: 81110693 United States 11/22/2022 07:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Faith produces action but not all action is faith in God. A wolf-in-sheep clothing can fake action but his faith is not in God. Cain and Abel both sacrificed to God, but God accepted Abel's but rejected Cain's, because God can see the heart and see Abel's faith (in God), but saw Cain's heart was wicked. God could see past the actions and see the heart and determine if the actions were truly out of faith (in God) or mere acting. |

Quoting: Weyoun OP, you are playing games. A plain reading of the Bible is clear. Your mental gymnastics word twisting is only for obsufucation and confusion. I'm saying belief won't cut it alone. Faith requires action. I think it is you playing word games(just my opinion). |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 83733339 seems like your god might be a piece of shit. So where were you and millions of others? What will all of us say when GOD asks,"Where have you been?" We all know where GOD and Christ stands from the Bible, about harming children, rape, incest, and murder. Do you know how wonderful and peaceful it is to be with GOD in Heaven where they went? A few minutes with GOD and Jesus Christ, in their love, is enough for them to forget their misery. But us, GOD will ask millions of us where were we? Will we ever do right? |
