    Prayer for Amadeus

    Always praying for you, John. I slip in and out of this place, but I'll never forget your kindness and guidance. You're easy to love, and although it seems unlikely we'll meet face to face in this world, I can't wait to see what we'll get into together in Glory Eternal! You can teach me Spanish...

    I am very ill

    Glad to see you, dear John, my oldest friend here. I'm barely around anymore. Hope you and yours are doing well, and glorying in God! :)

    Jesus talked about hell more than anything else in the Bible. - Seriously?

    How's that working out for you with Steve? By the way, nice to see you, Jack! :D :)

    How do we meet temptation?

    It is impossible to meet temptation consistently without preparation. Those who wait to pray when temptation comes will often be overcome. When I am faithful to "pray without ceasing," so to speak, it is nearly impossible for the tempter to prevail against me. Sometimes some conscious effort is...

    PAUL REFLECTS THE TEN COMMANDMENTS

    Unless you have something that's not obvious in mind with your use of the word "reflected," this is hard for me to understand. :)

    Jesus talked about hell more than anything else in the Bible. - Seriously?

    Which might mean He was going for quality-over-quantity. It may have been mentioned more, but we know considerably more about Heaven, don't we? It's not a biblical fact—it's a fact about the Bible; a distinction that might be worth noting. The Bible probably talks about genealogy more than...

    Jesus talked about hell more than anything else in the Bible. - Seriously?

    Jack, are you still being mean to Steve? :)

    Jesus talked about hell more than anything else in the Bible. - Seriously?

    You never call me. I thought that was what personal Bible study is for. Do you know something I don't? :)

    Jesus talked about hell more than anything else in the Bible. - Seriously?

    Hi, Pal!:waves: Too much Bible study is dangerous—bibliolatry, you know. :p :)

    Is Total Victory over Sin Possible?

    You've certainly known me long enough to judge. What's it been, a whole day-and-a-half, now? :)

    Is Total Victory over Sin Possible?

    I'm sorry. I do have trouble understanding convoluted covenant theology. The Lamb was slain from the foundation of the world, making the Everlasting Gospel, or Covenant, the only one that saves. This is my understanding, in brief. The Gospel is both simple enough for a child to understand, and...

    I need spiritual peace significantly and indefinitely

    Having a Gethsemane experience, my old friend? The LORD knows all about it. He has passed over that ground for your sake, and He will walk with you through it. Dear Jesus, Please give Lady the presence of the peace that is already hers in Your great love for her. And bless, protect and give an...

    Is Total Victory over Sin Possible?

    The problem with this school of reasoning is it assumes we didn't also need Him before we came to Him. :)

    In BIBLE we trust? - Misplaced allegiance?

    Hi, Steve. Long time no see. :waves: Still picking on conscientious folk? :Broadly: :hearteyes:

    From the pen of Ellen White

    As a matter of principle and not insult, I would say 'don't feed the trolls and they won't come to eat.' (and you are being trolled—it's actually turning into repetitious spam at this point). I know how much easier it is said than done, but the net effect is that we just end up micro-trampling...

    From the pen of Ellen White

    My pleasure. It's not an ordinary article from Mrs. White. It's worth a very thoughtful read, answering some especially profound questions. I actually had to have a few things pointed out to me before I spotted them. I had roughly the same experience. I was too poor to even pay attention but I...

    Gone off topic for the most part. :)
