Virginia restaurant refuses to serve Christian group, because they are Christian.

Greetings,

this may sound a little off, but....
how pathetic that professing Christians might get told they can't eat at a restaurant. So what?!

What are professing Christians doing, going to restaurants? And really, so what if we have to eat somewhere else besides a restaurant? Surely any level headed person could think simply to themselves, that if they don't want to serve me, that's fine I don't NEED their product and I can dine somewhere else? Someone else will get the money they will miss out on... maybe we could donate it to the poor...perhaps? or is that too radical today?


Bless you ....><>
 
John 7:7
The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.

John 15:18
If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

John 15:19
If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

1 John 3:13
Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.
 
I skimmed this and was not offended, rather I was slightly gleeful...strange? hmmm....

and when they had called in the apostles, they beat them and charged them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go. 41 Then they left the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor for the name. 42 And every day, in the temple and from house to house, they did not cease teaching and preaching that the Christ is Jesus.

He is on His way!

Remember this is America, Just not to long ago, some christians did not want to serve another group. Now it is The shoes is on the other foot. "What is good for the Goose is Good for The Gander".


Matthew 7

New King James Version
For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.

New American Standard Bible
For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you.
New International Version
For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

New Living Translation
For you will be treated as you treat others. The standard you use in judging is the standard by which you will be judged.

Go eat somewhere else and keep it moving. and stop complaining. There are more places in Richmond to eat, I been there, My wife grow up in Virginia.
matter of fact eat at home, more healthier. cooks some Beans and Corn Bread and bake some "Sweet Potato Pie"! and have a glass of "Kool Aid". and chill:)
 
I believe a person has the right to choose who they will allow to enter into their house.

2 Corinthians 6:14-17

King James Version

14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.”

1 Corinthians 5:11
But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolator, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.”

2 Chronicles 23:19
And he set the porters at the gates of the house of the Lord, that none which was unclean in any thing should enter in.

Revelation 22:14-15

King James Version

14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
 

Consider your source. This alleged news report is from the Company of the man who robbed the "build the Wall" fund he himself helped create (Steve Bannon) and is owned by Andrew Breitbart, a known alt-Right white supremacist. Really?
 
Consider your source, what makes you think the story is false? Did the liberal news media say it is false, or is that your own assumption?

It's Breitbart! Need I say more? That would be like taking Tucker Carlson at his word. No thanks. I can think. I have no "liberal news source".

I do not care if the story is true or false. The man is a neo-Nazi. As Jesus said, even evil people can go be good gifts. When the. ,Christian baker refused to bake a wedding cake for two gay men she was legally allowed. The same rule of US Law applies here.
 
That’s what I thought.:confused:

Point is that all US Corporations set their own rules and by laws and we can respect them. Bars can limit service. CVS can not allow bare feet. The Cali Christian baker can say no to the gay men's wedding cake and this place can not serve these people. We must obey our civil authority unless they require us to not do what Jesus tells us to do.
 
Perhaps you should stick to the topic of the news article instead of trying an attempt at character assassination.

We are supposed to be followers of Jesus, yes? Why is truth not acceptable? Should I use the language of Jesus instead? Fine! Vipers or whitened Seplechures full of dead men's bones or children of their spiritual father Belial! No problem.
 
Not at all, the law of the land IS the law of the land, and applies to all equally. Should it not?
If man legalizes sin, is it no longer sin according to God’s law? Does man’s law of legalizing sin trump God’s law?

The faithful will follow God’s law, not man’s agenda to legalize sin.

You know, Andrew Brietbart has been dead for over 10 years, and he did not write the news article so your point is mute.

My point is, you cursing dead men has nothing to do with the news story. Stick to the topic of the news article.
 

From the article…..

"Virginia's discrimination laws do have clear, it could be a very clear violation of religious discrimination," Cobb said. "Because that's what you find on our website, that all of our viewpoints are directly and intentionally taken from biblical admonitions and that we're a faith based organization."
