Jesus came to us to make show us that anyone can make it to heaven; rich or poor, king or pauper. The best example I can think of off the top of my head is Billy Graham. He was a wealthy man. You can bet he is in heaven right now.

I guarantee you he was a false prophet and jesus saw through him

How do you explain that quote then?

 

[rickyb]

Taken out of context.

Not surprising from you.

The 3 religious figures i quoted said its very difficult for a rich man to get into heaven

So i was wrong

 

[oldngray]

Both religious leaders i looked at says salvation comes from social justice by overturning satanic systems of exploitation and inequality

What religion were they? Not Christianity.

 

[rickyb]

Comparing capitalism with slavery? Really?

Both are too satanic!

Satanists?

All 3 are christians

 

[rickyb]

Satanists?

Hedges says organized religion frequently justifies power and oppression

Billy graham supported political agendas which aligned with the powerful and wealthy. His form of christianity ignored or justified injustice

Why do you lie so much?

I dont but the truth hurts

He was coopted by the powerful. Im sorry but it happens so often. And ppl are a bad judge of ppl.

 

[rickyb]

No, it does not say that.

The religious figures i quoted think its very difficult

So you can be rich and have a hard time getting into heaven or you can achieve salvation by donating your money for social justice

My goodness. Please please broaden your horizons on who it is you follow. Social justice does is not how you achieve salvation. Good works in and of itself cannot get you into heaven. Nowhere in the bible does it guarantee heaven by the works you do

the rich cannot get salvation by giving their money for social justice any more than you can by fighting the good social justice fight. Go ahead and compare the sermons of Reverend Barber where he calls people to true salvation to Billy Graham in any of his speeches specifically on salvation.

Also, you do realize that Hedges and Barber are pretty well off. They're far from poor or needy

Billy Graham pretty much just preached about John 3:16. He never strayed far from that and absolutely never was it about social justice.

His whole career which was basically from the late 1930's til after 2010..... same message

So if a rich man gives very generously to his church and to other charities, but is still a millionaire, is he an evil man who won't go to heaven?

Ricky's idea of social justice is to tear everything down. Only allow what he thinks should be allowed.

Thats what it said

You can give me your definition of it
