Spiritual death, physical life.

I see. I was merely asking a question that required a 'yes' or 'no' to be satisfied. Right. Of course, our thoughts are not without His provision, since, without Him we have no existence.

Ignoring questions looks fun, let me try: If we were capable of achieving what God demands of us, then did we need Christ for salvation? Is Christ not necessary, or is man helpless? When man is helpless, does God lower His Standard? or remain steadfast and Glorify Himself? Did He take away the...

It's ludicrous that Christ is not mere man and that it is impossible for man alone to be saved?

Relative to our conversation, it means that God commands man to do something that man is incapable of doing. In itself it means that Jesus is not mere man. What are you waiting for to take place?

There is no 'easier' work for God. No limit is pure power with no resistance.

He lived a perfect life. Jesus did not say it is impossible for Him.

Then why is Christ the Author and Finisher of our faith? Because of Christ.

I'd like for Christmas to be enjoyable for all of my brothers and sisters who are looking forward to it, and perhaps enjoyable again for those who experienced tragic loss on that date.

How did who do what?

Yes, and God commands men to do something that they are unable to do. God commands men to obey His law, yet Jesus teaches that this is outside of our capability.

Matthew 19:25-26 When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved? But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

Ronald, do you figure my question wasn't worth answering? Right, so we have our being by His power. Of course these choices we make cannot be apart from what He determined, because we have our being by His power. Or, do you suggest we control His power for Him so that we live according to...

John 5:30 I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me. Are we automatons if we can't do anything of our own selves?

I don't know if I have seen these shows, but if not then I have seen shows like them. Last year I watched Bob Lazar's recent documentary. Bob Lazar, the reason that the public knows of Area 51.

Thanks, I appreciate your straightforward answer. If you are willing to bear with me, I will fill in a blank and you will let me know if you think whether or not it is accurate. That would be, a plan that God didn't create originated in something He did create, and approached Him by means of...

How can it be spectacular for God to do something without free will of others, when there is nothing spectacular about doing something without free will of others? Am I misunderstanding something in your position? I believe you vilified God's sovereignty in favor of free will earlier.

I believe I'm asking you for the opposite of what you think I'm asking you. If we were capable of achieving what God demands of us, then did we need Christ for salvation? Is Christ not necessary, or is man helpless? When man is helpless, does God lower His Standard? or remain steadfast and...

I figure man is held responsible precisely because God is sovereign and man is not. Can you elaborate on what you mean by His permissive will?

Are you sure it was a near impact and not something that broke through the atmosphere and burned up? Upon further thought, I suppose if it was that large, it would not have burned up quick enough to not take an impact.
