Your posts Tony, of your explanation here, tell me clearly this is how your read the Bible.

Stretched assumptions Lizbeth which only attempt to undergird the God made in our image.

What I'm saying is we need to be mindful of how (the 'how' underlined for deliberate emphasis) we hear texts like, 'all scripture is given by inspiration....' It is not to undermine the text but rather to understand it and consider the assumptions we bring to it. For example, what do we do...

so isn't it possible that the Prophets experienced similar? Jonah was inspired to bolt when God gave him a message. Abraham thought it was God telling him to sacrifice his son. Inspiration, even by the Sprit of God does not always result in man saying or behaving as he should.....and from that...

good on you W_H

If Jesus didn’t know the hour doesn’t that mean that he isn’t god? If one doesn't grasp advanced mathematics does that mean it isn't arithmetic?

Was Jesus' Kingdom of God present in the OT? Of course....but it wasn't seen as we have the opportunity to see it today. This is evident in what many Prophets recorded as God's character. I don't think any saw God as self sacrificing. Even today, who sees God through the lens of how Jesus...

ahhhhh, what a visual Wynona!

When my kids were younger we'd mash up ochre stones and they'd paint up like natives. It didn't cost anything either and they loved it. I guess the Masai did too. Either way, I get a sense of admiration for women who have the courage to step outside of the society's obsession with wearing face...

Is it a sin to wear cosmetics? is it a sin to wear nothing?

Are Jews still special in the eyes of God today? or is it that God's eyes are special; eyes that refuse to assess and see as men insist on seeing?

a broken record either doesn't play or repeats repeats repeats a broken record is not a harbinger of good news

Mind emptying is a myth; a premise from which all sorts of BS is constructed. Even while you sleep your mind is active. The only ones with an empty mind are the dead!

keep eye on temple mount ...and miss the main event!

Sheeshhh, you covenant talkers confuse yourself. If only you could see Jesus, all your yada yada would be left in the dust.

Lizbeth, do you ever get inspired?

It sat on my arm and wouldn't leave. I was surprised it came into the car without complaint.....no coaxing needed

Jesus does not contradict himself but the writers of the Scriptures certainly do. Jesus shines a light where the Prophets never got it together.

Are you looking for a lifetime partner chiclady?

Everything requires decoding, even language. I make sounds with my mouth or throat and you decode the sound and hopefully their meaning. If you misinterpret the meaning, you effectively haven’t heard. The scriptures are no different. The retort of ‘it’s in the Bible’ is a poultry and...
