MATT
Anything that fitted a dictionaries definition of 'contradiction'.

RJV 9/17
So Matt, if I could find two passages in the Bible that lead to the final
form of + = -, then you would agree that there was a contradiction in the
Bible?

MATT
Yes

RJV 9/18

(A) MT 12:30 Jesus says "He who is not for me is against me"
(B) MK 9:40 Jesus says "Whoever is not against us is for us"

There can only be three general positions someone can hold concerning
Jesus. They are (1)For, (2)Against, and (3)Indifferent.

MATT
Could you show me a Scriptural reference for your number (3) position? 

<snip till above is answered>

RJV 9/23
I'm not believing this....  Why does there have to be a scriptural
reference for (3)?  There are three positions that someone can hold on
this.  Those for him (you), those against him (me, I'd guess), and those
who are indifferent (a guy named fvguzkildf who lives in a tribe on a
remote pacific island).  Now, if you can't understand that, then you are
probably beyond help .


MATT
You are attempting to show a Scriptural contradiction, yet one of your
statements (3) has no Scriptural foundation, therefore there is no basis
for a contradiction.

RJV 9/25
Plenty of people have responded to this, thus, being busy, I'm going to
ask that you respond to Jeff Epler or Farrell Till and hopefully I can
resume in this thread when I get some more time.

"What Is Success"  by Ralph Waldo Emerson

To laugh often and much; To win the respect of intelligent people and the
affection of children; To earn the approbation of honest critics and
endure the betrayal of false friends; To appreciate beauty; To find the
best in others; To give of one's self; To leave the world a bit better,
whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social
condition; To have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with
exultation; To know even one life has breathed easier because you have
lived - This is to have succeeded.
