Is it a sin to insult any spiritual leaders, Prophets ?

In my book, it is wrong to insult anybody. Thanks for asking.

God put this in His Word twice.

1 Chron 16:22 Saying, "Do not touch My anointed ones, And do My prophets no harm."

Psalms 105:15 Saying, "Do not touch My anointed ones, And do My prophets no harm."

And this is what the Lord said to those who made a habit of causing harm to His prophets:

Mat 23:33-38

Serpents, brood of vipers! How can you escape the condemnation of hell?

Therefore, indeed, I send you prophets, wise men, and scribes: some of them you will kill and crucify, and some of them you will scourge in your synagogues and persecute from city to city,

that on you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah, son of Berechiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar.

Assuredly, I say to you, all these things will come upon this generation.

O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing!

See! Your house is left to you desolate...

Oh, and then there is the Word of the Prophet Hosea:

Hosea 8:7 They sow the wind, And reap the whirlwind.

Have you considered at all the need to change your screen name?

You are now looking for ways to hurt people.

Yes it is a sin,study your own religion and the answer is the same.It is always a sin when u speak bad about anyone for god gave u a lovely voice to speak good for all.

Insult is a bit strong old chap, rebuke by all means those who are false prophets and leaders of no substance; you have my vote on that one.

How about a god keeping on saying and IMAGNE THIS IS REPEATED AND REPEATED BY THEIR GOD that his own creation is destined to hell fire if he did not believe in ALLAH.

For example Allah said HELL FIRE IS PREPARED FOR UNBELIEVERS.

So, imagine if some one converts to islam, then the rest of his family are considered unbelievers, so only this convert will go to heaven because he has become a muslim (even if he is a killer, because ALLAH forgives those who follow ALLAH) and the rest of his family his mother, father, sister or brother, etc. are all destined to hell fire.

Also imagine this, today there are many non-muslims in saudi jail - they are told to convert to islam and many are taunted to convert to islam, from testimonies of people who were already in jail in saudi arabia.

The cross or bible is not allowed to be in their possession. They have broken the crosses that was on their possession. Bibles are not allowed in Saudi Arabia. No one is allowed to preach christianity there.

But they want to demand their rights in other countries and if you dont allow they take all possible measures to propagate islam in a non-islamic state.

This is the height of a religion.

Their islamic preachers can preach against chrisitianity and against the teachings of christianity, but in the same token if anyone say anything against their teachings and specially anything about mohammad YOU ARE PUT TO DEATH.

Yet Jesus said I came to Serve and not To Be Served - That is why we can say God is our provider. God is our Father.

So who is GOD? Mohammad or God?

So who is ALLAH? A God?

Certainly Mohammad is treated MORE THAN GOD THAT IS WHY one muslim even said I WILL KILL YOU TO UPHOLD MOHAMMAD'S NAME.

So they will do anything FOR MOHAMAMD.

So for Muslims MOHAMMAD IS ABSOLUTE GOD.

So the answer is THEY CAN INSULT ANYONE THEY LIKE AND THUS IT IS NOT A SIN FOR MUSLIMS WHEN THEY TWIST OTHER SCRIPTURES AND TWIST HISTORY AND TWIST THE TRUTH.

its one thing for a person to have freedom of speech and the right to Legal "redress" and another to Publicly rebuke the wicked, whether they be perceived as a leader or a prophet or not.

in the case of Elijah, it was the judgment of God to send a bear and kill a couple of children for mocking the prophet.

on one hand the kids appear to be killed only for mocking elijah and his baldness, on the ohter hand these children seemed to be PART of Secret Combination.

the laws of God allow for forgiveness and mercy and forgiveness on one hand and for immediate judgment on the other.

in this case of elijah , I doubt, that forgiveness was the Call of the Day. and it was righteous for God to Kill them.

if it were to happen Today. God would destroy 99% of the population for violation of ONE commandment. WE ARE ALL GUILTY of transgression and sin of at least one commandment.

Jesus however teaches FAITH HOPE and Charity whereby WE can be forgiven up to 70 times 70, times.

to insult a true prophet in public is to receive a public condemnaiton, to incur the Wrath of God is always Death.

unless a man immediate recoils in repantance and swears to Forsake His sins. then the wrath of the LORD might be quenched.

Truth.

Sunday morning Archbishop Mancini announced he was appointing Father Paul Abbass as local spokesperson for matters relating to the Diocese. Father Abbass is pastor of St. Mary Parish, Frenchvale as well as Episcopal Vicar and Director of Pastoral Services. He will continue on in those duties.

“I, like everyone else, was surprised and taken aback [by the decision],” Father Abbass said Monday morning.

“When I read the letter from the Bishop, and saw that it was after prayerful consideration and it was a personal decision, I accepted that,” the priest said.

He noted there was a general affection for Bishop Lahey among many parishioners so there is concern whether he is OK.

“The only thing I think is regret-table is that some think it is con-nected to the recent legal settlement,” Father Abbass said, referring to the settlement of a class action lawsuit against the Diocese.

The lawsuit concerned acts and allegations of sexual abuse by members of the clergy of the Diocese of Antigonish since Jan. 1, 1950. Bishop Lahey had signed a settlement agreement with lead plantiff Ronald Martin Aug. 7. Nova Scotia Supreme Court Justice David MacAdam approved the $13 million agreement Sept. 10.

“I think the Bishop himself would find it regrettable if people were trying to connect those two and suggest in any way that this puts that agreement at any risk. We are going forward. It is an issue of justice and reconciliation that we are determined to honour. It is categorically in no jeopardy whatsoever.”

In an earlier press release, Father Abbass said the settlement is “a legally binding document.”

Why should be ?

PROHIBITON OF GHIBAH AS A MAJOR SIN,

Abu Hurayrah reported;The Prophet said,'He who believes in Allah and the Lst Day must either speak good or remain silent

[Sahih al-Bukhari,5559 cd]

a sin produces guilt, therefore a sin without guilt is not a sin. insult with confidence.

Yes. Matthew 10 (Amplified Bible)

41He who receives and welcomes and accepts a prophet because he is a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward, and he who receives and welcomes and accepts a righteous man because he is a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.
