    The challenge in Christianity is not to love Jesus, it's to love Judas.

    I don't mean that. However what is revealed is your inability to hear that which is communicated.

    advice, self importance, second guessing, superiority complex!

    The challenge in Christianity is not to love Jesus, it's to love Judas.

    Your analysis is wanting Hidden.....and your desire to control is not concealed.

    Speaking poorly of people to others behind their back while elevating ones own piety ....SPEAKS!

    The challenge in Christianity is not to love Jesus, it's to love Judas.

    You can and do assume whatever you like Hidden. These carry no weight for me, particularly as I see you flit about from accusation to unrelated text. I see your attempts to appear informed of 'Hidden things' as nothing more than smoke and mirrors. I'm onto your game of deflection and projection!

    Thank you for another side step....in an attempt to take scrutiny off your desires....ie, to control

    Here we go....when intent to control is the go to, the motivating spirit is desperate.

    Jesus is our brother.

    You are shameless in your attempts to pull me down Hidden. I know that spirit!

    Is God Magnanimous? - (as opposed to tyrannical)

    How is it you are quick to tell me how it is for me Hidden.....full of advice while patting yourself on the back? My conclusion is that your world is one where you consider yourself an unsolicited advisor as opposed to a bearer of good news. Even The Good News is hijacked, reworked and made to...

    Is God Magnanimous? - (as opposed to tyrannical)

    My security is what you define as ignorance. It gives me chutzpah. I think Paul encountered the same opposition. 1 Corinthians 1:22-24 'For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness...

    What do I think of that take?.....sounds like a typical Pharisaical rambling.

    Is God Magnanimous? - (as opposed to tyrannical)

    What it comes down to Hidden is what you tell the world at large. Do you give them good news or good advice? Good News in this context is a past tense proclamation.....what God has done 'Good' advice on the other hand insists people jump through certain hoops before access to the prize. ....what...

    Is God Magnanimous? - (as opposed to tyrannical)

    Read the texts again....ALL are in Christ.....there is no condemnation. You are supposing that some are not in Christ. Do you also suppose that some are not in Adam? 1 Corinthians 15:22 All are in need of Good News....and as I recall the angels on Bethlehem's hills saying in Luke 2:10 'Fear...

    Your misrepresentations of my words Hidden, leave me with no confidence of your ability for integrity.

    Is God Magnanimous? - (as opposed to tyrannical)

    The Good News is for the whole progeny of Adam. 'As in Adam all die, so in Christ will all be made alive'. 1 Corinthians 15:22 All people are gifted life in Jesus in spite of the death inherited through Adam. What comes out in the wash is that not all people will want to align themselves with...

    All are called and chosen of which Judas serves as an example. These called, these chosen have judged the God of Grace unworthy of their company. In other words it is they who have rejected God; they have determined their own destiny by their own hand.

    Is God Magnanimous? - (as opposed to tyrannical)

    I think he created us in his image because he desires friends and friendship....which I guess is a privilege over other creations. I mean, servants don't have the same status as children let alone any talk of inheritance. Jesus tells us in John 15:15 'I no longer call you servants, because a...

    An admission of what is true does not equate with allegiance to it.

    Is God Magnanimous? - (as opposed to tyrannical)

    I have the view that sin has no cause. According to 1 John, God is light and in him is no darkness at all.
