    WWJD with LGBTQ?

    We (men) have saddled God with the word 'Sovereign' which implies the domination principle which we then exploit or superimpose. Does the life (reality) of Jesus reveal this? Washing the disciples feet and his subsequent explanation does not evoke this picture.

    WWJD with LGBTQ?

    Is volume a measure God uses in love? Isn't it men who worship power? Isn't humility God's MO?

    WWJD with LGBTQ?

    I see your God fits neatly into your box of assumptions.......and you would set limits on God accordingly!

    Envisioning Heaven: No more donuts or football?

    hmmm, I stay content with the words, 'Eye has not seen nor has ear heard nor has entered into the mind of man the things God has prepared for those that love him' 1 Corinthians 2:9

    Enemies Occupy the Holy Land

    Oh dear, oh dear Wrangler. With respect, it is advisable to understand what certain 'terms/ expressions' mean before using them inappropriately and exposing oneself to being ignorant. In this case the term/ expression 'intellectual dishonesty/ honesty'

    Promises made to Abraham where long before any Hebrews, Israeli's or Jews existed.

    Envisioning Heaven: No more donuts or football?

    Envisioning Heaven: No more donuts or football? Definitely USA bound (trapped). Definitely not African, Chinese or Russian Arctic considerations. Absolutely subjective, restricted and inevitably prone to inaccurate conclusions.

    They will not leave one stone on another

    Enemies Occupy the Holy Land

    @Wrangler ...your question, 'why was Israel called the land of milk and honey?' It was called the 'land of milk and honey', because God had blessed the land presided over by its inhabitants prior to the Hebrews taking possession of it. Consider the cluster of grapes carried back by the twelve...

    Enemies Occupy the Holy Land

    The term' Holy Land' is an imposition men of shrunken and biased mental capacity have given a stretch of geography on God's Planet. We need be mindful of what we are saying so that we do not parrot the language of 'cults' and assume that which is the imagination of those with unhealthy agendas.

    WWJD with LGBTQ?

    I see you have seen a certain Jesus, John, perhaps the Jesus of popular theology but what is definitely clear is you haven't seen Jesus of Nazareth. The Jesus who forgives even when he is not asked to, the Jesus who raises the dead who can't ask, the Jesus who is compassionate to fellows...

    Where is the real abomination? - The context of Leviticus 18:22 and Leviticus 20:13

    Where is the real abomination? - The context of Leviticus 18:22 and Leviticus 20:13 The (real) Abomination is misrepresenting God. This misrepresentation reaches its high point when it attributes to God the attitudes/ activity and practices of Satan clothed in the garment of Piety. Paul...

    WWJD with LGBTQ?

    Ever wondered what the selected Hebrew spies were doing at Rehab's place. Why go there? Was it a cup of coffee or to get a language lesson? .......or were there other urges? I think glorifying or demonising people ensures we loose a healthy perspective.

    WWJD with LGBTQ?

    Being a sinner Ziggy, is by God's definition Mental illness. It has difficulty joining the dots well; it prioritises the minor over the major; it assumes 'common sense' is the right measure. The Inuit assumed letting a favoured visitor sleep with his wife, as the right thing to do. Killing your...

    WWJD with LGBTQ?

    It would depend on how it manifests. It could be of a sexual nature, it could be of an emotional/ psychological nature or a physical nature. If you were homosexual of some sorts which by the way I am not, I would not treat you any differently to any other person. I would definitely not condemn...

    WWJD with LGBTQ?

    Homosexuality has many shades of grey. It is shortsighted to tar everyone with the same brush. Dysfunction runs through humanity in all forms. People born with deformed limbs or co-joined, even being sexually mixed like hermaphrodites are all forms of physical dysfunction in the human make up...
