    Enemies Occupy the Holy Land

    Sooo, you have no qualms worshipping the God of death? ....hmmmm, it appears you don't know the God of Jesus . Dont you know who it is that has the power of Death? Hebrews 2:14 We are people of flesh and blood. This is why Jesus became one of us. He died to destroy the devil, who had power...

    Enemies Occupy the Holy Land

    and it's acceptable to engage in genocide ie, wiping out any who don't belong to your club when the opportunity arises? How is it when Mr Hitler attempted the same game the World was outraged but the objection in most Government circles is near mute when a similar activity occurs in Palestine?

    Enemies Occupy the Holy Land

    I wonder whether many of Jesus' words are considered as cryptic by those people then and the people today? .....and why are they considered this way? Could it be that the paradigm Jesus is seeing from is so at odds with the way people saw then and today that's the only conclusion they could come...

    You hear/ interpret as you do Keraz because you know no other way.

    Your reading, particularly your understanding of this is superficial. What concerns me is clarification will only attract mocking.

    God Predetermines The Events Of Life

    Good morning WalterandDebbie......love is vulnerable; that's its nature. It manifests in allowing self expression even to the hurt of others.

    What is the name Father, which Jesus proclaimed within his life?

    What is the name Father, which Jesus proclaimed within his life? God's name is his character. Declaring God's character/ name was the objective of Jesus. Why? because of the many distortions and falsehoods humanity had and has represented God as. From pagan societies/ religions to how the...

    Enemies Occupy the Holy Land

    Reading the words of scripture is one thing, understanding them is another. The leading religious folk in Jesus day put at least the Torah to memory....quite a feat, yet its objective passed them by. I think the same problem, ie the objective of the scriptures passing folk by, exists today for...

    Enemies Occupy the Holy Land

    Enemies Occupy the Holy Land Who calls what the Holy Land? Ohhh, you mean Palestine! Is Palestine really a holy land? or is it a land of genocide and much bloodshed? Then, what is the Holy Land? it needs to be defined so that it is Holy, not just given a title which ultimately is...

    Donald Trump - a racist?

    The world is full of racists; racing for everything from being the best big and small ball hitter and kicker to those racing for the Presidency.

    Where I get stuck on in sharing my faith...

    I think God's heart goes out to us at every turn.....dirty diapers and all. His desire to bring us home is consistent and unending. The story crafted by Jesus of the prodigal son which incidentally we could also call the story of the generous father, reveals to us God's character. It is us who...

    Putin Warns The West That Russia Is Ready For Nuclear War

    ahhhhh, now I understand. Your understanding of God is informed by John Wayne movies.....makes sense!

    Where I get stuck on in sharing my faith...

    The image we bear now is but a faint reflection of God when Man was created. Sin has marred and almost defaced God's image in us. Self has become the reference point for most everything we think and do. It was not like this in the beginning. Consider the many theologies which abound and how our...

    Where I get stuck on in sharing my faith...

    God is present and working with all people all the time......do we believe it? God is present when people are ill and when accidents occur. Why is it we pray to remind him to be there......is it because we feel he doesn't care as much as we do or that he is forgetful or too busy with other...

    Why was God so quick to kill Ananias and Sapphira on the spot?

    Why was God so quick to kill Ananias and Sapphira on the spot? Why assume God was the cause of their death?

    Where I get stuck on in sharing my faith...

    You can only share what you have, not what you haven't got, bugalugs. So the question you can ask yourself is, 'what is it I have'? .....and if that seems wanting to you, you know the direction, ie, ask and it will be given, knock and the door will be opened, seek and you will find. Just be...

    TULIP an open discussion

    The difficulty is the key isn't used.....and why isn't it used? because the key is not recognised......and why is that? because when it is presented it is dismissed with pious 'knowing'.
