@marks Here's my question again Tell me what you don't understand about it?

The gears in a vehicle are not the driver. It is the engine that drives. The engine can run but if the gears are not selected nothing moves. Expecting to move the vehicle solely by selecting gears is a fool's expectation.

John was a figure of Elijah.....he preached reform. It was in this sense that Jesus refers to John

Overcoming!...yes, overcoming the doubt that we are loved. Overcoming the default of looking to ourselves. Overcoming distrust.

Another digression... Be inspired. Turn up the volume

The four gospels are a rather scant record of Jesus 3.5 yr ministry....John 21:25 confirms this. Subsequently any film made on this matter will inevitably have filler to make it flow. Picking apart the filler because it is not 'purist' defeats its purpose.

C'mon marks....please hear the question.

Speak to the value of following Jesus God is vindicated. All the false charges brought for millennia are nullified. The dragon has been defeated though his tail still thrashes. The inhabitants of unnumbered Worlds and angelic beings rejoice and we in our frail frames and little faith on our...

Ahhhh, there we have it. The cat's outta the bag! All the previous years of yada yada is condensed and you show your hand unreservedly.
