    Why did the blind man see men like trees walking when Jesus touched him?

    Why did the blind man see men like trees walking when Jesus touched him? Haven't you seen Jews waving their arms? :contemplate:

    Matthew 24:15 What is the abomination of desolation?

    The 'thing' which makes desolate is misapprehending the character of God and substituting it with one of the imagination.

    Bible was never written to you

    Hey Matthew....It would be good if we could have an objective conversation :) That said, I see you like the Mullah look :)

    Is the Good News actual news? - No longer news to most

    It seems to me your message is about how people respond while you assume the liberty of determining their destiny from their attitude towards what you deem as right or wrong

    Is the Good News actual news? - No longer news to most

    I doubt that the tares know they are tares....and being tares they are convinced they are wheat. So I guess deception is complete.

    Are you straining at knats and swallowing Camels?

    Is the Good News actual news? - No longer news to most

    You speak so boldly in your application to others yet have not considered the same principles as applying to yourself!

    When I die I hope to go to hell

    The scripture you've commented on and Devin has assumed, is misunderstood and misinterpreted. No wonder further conclusions are also right off track. The context needs checking and pondering.

    I'm starting to move away from "pretend Christianity"

    I'm starting to move away from "pretend Christianity" Why did you go there in the first place?

    Deconstructing is no stranger to constructing for those with courage.

    Is the Good News actual news? - No longer news to most

    Those who are sick of it either have never heard it or don't want to hear it. The heart of the Gospel cannot be rationalised or discovered using the parameters of men. New birth is not something one can generate by trying; by engaging some formula. Consider Paul's story. Scripture repeatedly...

    Were We Alive In Heaven Before We Were Born?

    I think those who have been dished up a mediocre message and assume that is it, have a dawning yet to experience and be gobsmacked, even brought to tears of the wonder of the slaughtered lamb.....in the midst of the throne

    Were We Alive In Heaven Before We Were Born?

    The second person of the Godhead took on the process of a human body at the conception of Mary. The Resurrection imbued him with a glorified body, a body he will retain for eternity as his identification with the human family, even a marred one so to speak, with the scars of the crucifixion...

    Were We Alive In Heaven Before We Were Born?

    The fall was a tragedy in that the human family lost its potential to fully develop 'made in the image of God' but God in his wisdom took what was to our great disadvantage and made our destiny more glorious though great risk and suffering to himself. (have you ever wondered/thought that every...

    Were We Alive In Heaven Before We Were Born?

    I think it is worth being aware of where our focus is in the whole salvation story; is it on us and what we are doing/ responding to or is it on God and his nature/character and activity. The Church generally has majored on us (it is the human affliction); what we believe (doctrinally) and how...

    Were We Alive In Heaven Before We Were Born?

    When one gives unrestrained choice to ones creatures; when one loves because that's God's nature, vulnerability is front, left and centre and being exploited a real possibility. Lucifer, the shinning bright angel chose to exploit, the scripture telling us it was unremitting pride which drove...

    Were We Alive In Heaven Before We Were Born?

    I don't think God will be gloating. I rather think that God will have tears in his eyes because his bright shinning star chose to alienate himself from life.

    Were We Alive In Heaven Before We Were Born?

    The purpose being God is vindicated even by those opposed to him let alone the whole loyal Universe praising him. It'll be a confession drawn from denial and delusion swept away by the sheer weight of evidence.

    Were We Alive In Heaven Before We Were Born?

    It'll be forced, not in the sense of a gun to the head but in the sense of overwhelming awareness of the Justice of God. Denial is swept away.....even Satan will go to his knees acknowledging God's ways are right and just. This does not mean their hearts are aligned with God's values nor do they...
