(Sorry for my delay in answering, I had more company.) I have not yet caught up in the thread, I have pages to read.... I wasn't given any reason, it just disappeared. It had wonderful spiritual insight, perhaps too wonderful, not meant for the masses. Maybe it needed to come with a warning...

(Sorry for the delay in answering, I received unexpected company yesterday! Praise God!!!) Firstly, I choose to assume you just made a typo and mean Jesus with a capital "J", name above all names, and not Jesus Barabbas the thief using a small j to denote the difference. A detail, yes,....but...

So you are agreeing with Jesus??;):) Is your response not proving the very words of Jesus??:contemplate: John 3:8 "The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”

John 3:8 "The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”

Have you read the Bible for yourself?? It doesn't seem like you are very familiar with it if you need to go outside the Bible to find the word Zion. I don't know anything of the book of Mormon, BUT, I do know that Zion is mentioned 153 times in the Old Testament of the Bible!! Just saying...

Solid, crucial, and powerful message!

Thank-you, Episkopos! I got a lot out of your explanations!

Thank-you, Epi. May God bless you!

Yeah, I'm still reading through the threads....I got though 3 of them last night, but there is still a 64 page thread that I haven't started yet. It takes time!! From what I did read I didn't have a problem with what he said, but I did have a problem with some responses that others made....and...

Sadly, in my searching I found this...perhaps I should answer you with your own words... hmmm.... :(

....or it could be because I've never done a search before....(and didn't know how)!! ....but I followed your instructions....

This???? (Taken from "a search of "hindu girl" on epis' threads"). "Imagine a little girl in Bangladesh, her parents are Hindu. To honour her parents, she does whatever Hindus do. She lives a poor life and dies in poverty in a drought. God in His mercy sees the girl...a girl who suffered her...

What do you mean by that??? ...ouch!! I just asked if it had to do with the verse, "Children obey your parents", and I asked because that verse was drilled into my head as a kid!!

I haven't looked it up but does it have to do with EPH 6:1-3 “Children, obey your parents because you belong to the Lord, for this is the right thing to do. 'Honor your father and mother.' This is the first commandment with a promise: If you honor your father and mother, 'Things will go well for...

That's quite an accusation!!! I would need to see you quote Epi to prove what YOU are saying about him. It sounds more like you are twisting his words to bring attention to yourself. Show me the proof!! :backtop: In case you all have forgotten....the thread was about a book I was reading...

You did not address this... you went on to say.... To be born again, one must draw God's attention, no?? How do we draw God's attention....by our faith and our deeds!!! Able succeeded to draw God's attention, now we must also do so in order to be born again, to be born of the Spirit. So, I...

...and you didn't, yet you still posted Who's rejecting the gospel of Christ?? Don't we?? The deed of repentance, the deed of loving God, and the deed of loving your neighbour as yourself. The deed of Able's sacrifice received God's attention and God's favour. So, the question is are you...

Who is disregarding the dire need for faith in Christ??
