11. They Are Stuck On The Torah
because they wish to control the actions of others. Ever notice how they emphasize, and seek to enforce, those parts of the Torah that would not inconvenience themselves...but only enemies of their own choosing?

they conveniently ignore those parts of the Torah, and the rest of the Bible...that require them to make any fundamental changes in their own lives...they allow themselves to retain their comfortable bigotries and prejudices...they seek to codify into civil law those parts of the Torah that would inconvenience, and cause harm...to enemies of their own choosing.

This is not living in Christ. And when the Day of Judgement arrives, those people will be saying, "but, Lord...I did this and this and this for You." And the Lord will say unto them, "turn away from me, for I knew you not."

They are the false prophets that the Bible warned us, in Revelation...would be among us in the final days. They are the modern-day Pharisees. And they are stuck on the Torah because they have the "invader mentality." They truly feel no remorse or shame for any act committed against an enemy of their own choosing, for, in their eyes, such people are not human. Thus, any atrocity committed against them is not damning. This is truly the way they believe.

No, they won't SAY that in words. Thier ACTIONS speak of this belief, though, as though they shouted it through a megaphone.
