I have heard or read at least a few times "God is love BUT he is also just" when they should say "God is love AND he is just". I am not criticizing(I also have bad grammar sometimes) I just think it is important to get this right or some people may start to think that they somehow contradict or oppose each other rather than complementing each other.  :winkgrin:

Yes, love and justice go together don't they? Can you imagine a loving father not disciplining his son for committing a terrible sin, or letting his children run wild?

I doubt it's bad grammar. It's intentional. It's a way to inject their satanic ET doctrine. Obviously in their mind the justice part (almost) completely overshadows the love part.

Being judged is often misunderstood. Jesus was also judged and found 100% perfect.
In the western (Christian) mind being judged is negative. But not so in the Bible.
Compare it to a job evaluation (or whatever it's called in English). Sometimes the employee gets fired. Sometimes the employee get's praise or even a raise.
Reading the OT we see that there are different punishments for different crimes. That's another part of their flawed thinking.
1 Timothy 2:3-4  ...God our Savior;  Who will have all men to be saved...
John 12:47  And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
Romans 4:5 But to the one who does not work, but believes in the one who declares the ungodly righteous ...

Bad grammar, or for that matter, bad spelling, is just not a good thing if you want to get your ideas given serious consideration.  Yeah, ain't thet raight, Lamar?  :doh:
Socrates taught Plato.  Plato taught Aristotle.  Aristotle tutored the son of Philip of Macedon.  This boy grew up to become Alexander the Great, largely by slaughtering a lot of people.  That's philosophy.

Jesus spoke the Truth.  He blessed the poor.  He healed the sick.  He even raised the dead.  He died on a cross for us, lived again, and came back long enough to tell us to love one another.  That's religion.

YHVH = Behold the Nail, Behold the Hand = Jesus

This is very right! "God is love BUT he is also just" does not make any logical sense whatsoever!

I find comfort in what God says of Himself: I am a just God and Savior. He calls to all the ends of the earth, "Come unto me and be saved." Can anyone resist God's call? Not if He is truly God. Praise Him. He will have all His pleasure and none will be lost. (Isaiah 45-46)

I intended it to be humorous(even though it is pretty sad too though). I don't really think other christians have worse grammar. What do you call joking or sarcasm when it is true and the joker knows it to be true?  :Chinscratch:

4 and my message and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, 5 so that your faith would not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.

Jesus is the reward  !!
