G'day Pierac, Would you consider that God doesn't need death to satisfy anything. Death is as foreign to God as light is from darkness. Why on earth would God want death? God is far far above the pitiful rational of fallen man who glorify death as 'sacred'; as if God requires payment.

Why Did Jesus Have to Die? Could we also substitute the word 'have' for 'need'.....it's no doubt the same idea. I don't think Jesus needed to die except for us to see the lengths that God would submit himself to convince us of his affection for us. He would allow us to kill him rather than hurt...

Man naturally shrinks from the holiness of God. It is a consuming fire. It exposes our failures so we invent our own meanings to the word 'holy'. This satisfies the carnal nature......and so the 'religious' mindset is furthered. When Jesus returns with all his angels, those eagerly waiting for...

I guess he saw the serpent as a serpent ....just as the Jews still do today. As for 'sin crouching at the door', I guess he figured that if Cain didn't get a handle on his attitude towards Able, matters were going to escalate. I have no doubt God spoke with Moses yet Moses filtered what he...

I find it helpful when I understand the perspective Moses wrote from. Unaware there was a devil and their' God is one' mantra, they attributed everything that happened (both good and bad) to God. So this being the case, (in Moses's mind) of course God caused the flood. Jesus reveals to us there...

Why Did Jesus Have to Die? Because men couldn't stand his holiness.

This is an anthropomorphism, ie attributing to God characteristics of fallen man. Genocide is a man made devil inspired activity. It is foreign and opposed to the revelation of God in Jesus. I think the antediluvians were sharper than we give them credit. In my view they experimented with the...

The Flood is attributed to God. The reason given is all the wickedness prevalent. However, God is omniscient, ie, all knowing. The Flood made no difference to the trajectory of men. Evil surfaced within short space. If God was the instigator of the flood and he knew it wouldn't change the...

Looks like we have a blaming fraternity. Good thing you didn't live in the days of Nebuchadnezzar !

I think your understanding of sin is as shallow as a petrie dish. It thrashes around the externals like a white washed tomb hiding dead mens bones.

......and so your replies indicate you do not understand/ know the Godman. What you do know is a cerebral assent to cobbled information which has no form that resembles the Creator.....a bit like a computer which has no real connection with anything living.

Lucifer insisted on the path he chose; do we suppose that God made no efforts for his recovery....and what were the nature of those efforts? Adam was warned that death would result in disobedience; I'm certain Lucifer was cognisant of that reality for himself. Both the lie Lucifer invented and...

You can do your utmost to persuade a friend not to suicide, however if your friend is determined and pulls it off, technically he derailed your plan but the responsibility is his, not yours. You are exonerated.

All have immense value and are well worth rescuing (saving) A drowning man who resists his rescuer sufficiently, will drown.

God has only ever intended Life for his creation (Lucifer included) Grace has triumphed in that it has redeemed humanity in Jesus, ie he does not hold our rebelliousness against us. (who will believe this?) It's good news. But no, we insist on our own formulas and pride keeps men insisting on...

Trump vying for Greenland and Canada are there reflections here with Putin?

would it be a fair consideration to say, the woman which appeared as the pure one has morphed into an impure one?

Every cheap tactic blames, lampoons and ridicules those one doesn't see eye to eye with. Jesus approach was to forgive those who deemed him an enemy.

There is an assumption that the wicked want to come over to the side of God (be saved). I think this view falls short of understanding that God's Spirit which has constantly strived to bring awareness to all, yet those deemed wicked have persistently dismissed these promptings to the point where...

It appears we are telling each other. I guess we will need to wait and see where wisdom lies.
