Have to agree with your interpretation. A good many there couldn't give a fig about what He was saying, just so long as they got their miracle. Unfortunately for them, what He was saying to them was vastly more important and of far greater benefit than receiving a miracle. Self-centeredness...

That can happen if the cars don't have non-GMO tires.

As long as you have a bottle of ketchup handy.

Yes, but the point is that roadkill is not kosher.

LOL. If she thought 1965 was bad...

Reap the whirlwind, Murphy. Reap it!

To live is Christ -- while alive we can spread the gospel and be good representatives of Christ among people To die is (personal) gain -- we get to go be with Christ. It's a win either way.

Your post makes some valid points regarding prayer in general. However, in relation to my post it is a complete non-sequitur.

Yeah. I think you completely missed my point.

No. How can the rote recital of someone else's prayer come from the heart?

Bible Roulette only seems random bc you are not making the conscious choice to go to a specific book or passage. God still leads you where He wants you to go. I agree, tho, that God has any number of methods to get our attention and direct us.

NEVER presume to judge God by pitiful human standards. In fact, never presume to judge God, period. Ever.

Jesus is my Lord. I love Him. I obey Him. I serve Him. I worship Him. That is all.

There is no random chance. There is no luck. Both imply a force beyond God's control, which is, of course, impossible. God is in control of all things at all times. It is all a matter of His will and His plan.
