Entry: Hitchens' Hubris Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/hitchens_hubris#2675 Post contents: Hello, I.B. Well, yes, you are right, I did quote mostly from the Old Testament, but I did throw in a couple of NT quotations. You know, I.B., an enemy of God is not confined to just the Old Testament or the New Testament or to any particular time. I am thinking of heretics or infidels like Arius, Eutyches, Nestorius, Hus, Mohammed, Luther and Calvin, among many. Hitchens is part of that gang, also; and he is probably nothing more than a miserable agnostsic or atheist, but still an enemy of God. Besides, if you noticed, I quoted from Luke 11:23. Now, when a person says, "you are not with me, but against me", one has to assume that that person not with the other is an enemy (hostes), if there is no middle ground. According to those who are able to interpret Christ's words, there is no middle ground, which makes those who are not with Christ, his enemies. Answer me this, were the Pharisees who caused Christ to be crucified his enemies? Are each one of us who sins against Him and do not do His will his friend? My best wishes to you and God's blessings be with you. Jerry Sent at: 2008 07 06
