    Previous generations, have been summarized by us - we *also* will be summarized, by generations that come after us! (looking?)

    Hi there, So Solomon says at length "as it was, so shall it be" (in Ecclesiastes) and Christ Himself says "this generation shall not pass away, until all these things are fulfilled" (gospels, from memory) - what is it, that happens from generation to generation, if we both come to be and...

    Why is the book of Revelation so hard to read and understand?

    I know that this can be addressed.

    God's design is so complicated, it prevents you from knowing it all (lost?)

    Hi there, So look, I've thought long and hard about all the systems that play a part in the body of a creature designed by God and the conclusion I have reached: is that it is impossible, to know it all. There are just so many systems integrated into one another, that no one system explains...

    How good is a fragment of the Law? Do we justify ourselves more? (true?)

    The Law can't ultimately save us, but shouldn't we be doing good in the meantime? Shouldn't we committing all the more, to the Law of the Spirit? This is what Paul talks about, in the warring of his members - he is tempted to try and live according to the whole of the Law, when for piety's...

    Was Jesus 'mortal' or 'immortal' ?

    The flesh is mortal, but can comfort the spirit; the spirit is immortal, and can render the flesh innocent. Together: both flesh and spirit are able to become perfect.

    How good is a fragment of the Law? Do we justify ourselves more? (true?)

    The difference is that justified in the whole of the law, is a boast that can't justify the Law; whereas understanding justice in a fragment of the Law, is also faith that less of the Law will need to be justified (in order for something to be justified, as we understand by Grace). Christ never...

    Bible was never written to you

    I think you are close to making a good point. It was written, but not as though who we had been was irrelevant? It was written, to who we would be in future?

    Is the Good News actual news? - No longer news to most

    Good news, even on old newspaper, makes for a thrilling read! (selah)

    God has given me a streak of genius, I cannot hold His Praise back!

    Yes, indeed, God has given me a streak of genius, there is no way in Heaven or Hell, that I could hold His Praise back! I am not better than other people, nor do I have a mean streak, I am simply gifted with a measure of genius, that I treasure like gold - because it is from the Lord! We all...

    How good is a fragment of the Law? Do we justify ourselves more? (true?)

    Hi there, So I just want to introduce a concept, that relates to the Law. The concept is this: if we cannot be condemned without the Law, because we are ignorant of its direction, can we be condemned on the basis of a fragment of that law? The answer is "only by a fragment". Now this is...

    A.I. becoming the new mind of man?

    the real snare is that fools like to look in on things that reflect their foolishness. You might regard AI from a distance and avoid danger, but the fool will say "this is better than believing in God"

    Preaching is worship?

    Not to discount the Spirit your sermons edify, but I think you are confusing optimism with hope? If I hope my sermons inspire praise, being optimistic about that praise does not justify my sermon; if I am consistently optimistic about my praise, I may want to preach more, but they stay two...

    There Aren’t Good & Bad People.

    Yes, but the damage is done: the fruit has been eaten, it no longer matters if you stop eating it or not!

    Preaching is worship?

    I think the more favourable statement is "preaching is supposed to inspire worship" But of course if you are preaching, you can indulge in your own worship to God, just not within the message.

    The right to abort. The right to ask for the aborted to be adopted instead. These are the same thing!

    The poll looks promising. I am looking forward to the Day, that I can adopt in Heaven!

    Can God not save souls, before, during and after the Tribulation?

    I really feel like people need to grasp this: without acknowledging the power of God, you do Him a disservice. We have an identity with Christ, that He will do everything to protect - we should be thanking Him that we are delivered and able to stand!

    Did God create Alien Beings?

    You only have to look at the diversity of the life God created on Earth, to know that God is not limited in how, who or where He creates.

    The Law is good, it brings us to Christ.

    I wholeheartedly approve of this message. You get to the point; and it expands our spiritual horizon. Thank you.

    Scripture says "in His Name, the Gentiles will trust" - what will 'Evolutionist Gentiles' trust in Jesus?

    As far as the Devil is concerned. I know One that has put him on the back foot, but we need a clear agenda if we are to keep him so. I think it comes down to the Holy Spirit: does He have us contend our design is better, or that Evolution at best is mostly weak? God will be furious with those...
