I wish humor was a gift of the Spirit, lol...funny (haha) thing is that I still do not know what my "gift" is!

Hi 101, I do understand what you are saying here...that those verses really show that Jesus WAS GOD. But, I also understood what @Pearl meant. There is the Father Son And Holy Spirit involved in those verses, IMHO. ♥

Can I not apply any of the definitions of the same given name over the other defs?? And, since we see nothing described of Mary in the bible that even resemble "bitterness or Rebelliousness" in her character - I am allowed to "prefer" one of those defs over another if I so choose. What's so...

Sure does ♥

Yep, there is such power in that name that un-believers cringe at it. The term "god" is okay tho, because they create their own. :(

I prefer the definition "wished for child" over the others. But, I suppose she could well have had some of those other ... traits? She might be blessed among woman but, she was still in need of a savior, she was not "without sin" IOW. :)

"sea of bitterness", "rebelliousness", and "wished for child". However it was most likely originally an Egyptian name, perhaps derived in part from mry "beloved" or mr "love". Not so big on the "bitterness or Rebelliousness" def tho. Could be the same as the name Miriam or Maria too :)

Hi Mark, Just now came across this post! Anyhow, I do not believe there ever was nor will ever be full unity within the Church until it is all said and done, and that is NOT to say we shouldn't still strive for it. I also believe that a huge reason for such lack of unity in the Church is the...

"Of course. Getting into the Spirit is very hard indeed. And staying there brings new challenges. I have experience of going in and out. So I have walked in His power...and my own. The difference is like night and day. And yet in my own strength I am still led by the Spirit and feel His presence...

Yes, I agree with what you say here ♥. Yet do you never stumble? Ever?

I can't agree with you Epi, sry. "Be perfect as God is perfect." IMHO is saying to be complete in His Love. God is Perfect in ALL His ways, are you?

:D

:)

"And the question asked by the OP was "God's Standard is".... not "Is Jesus perfect?" These can be connected as, since Gods standard (singular) is PERFECTION and, only the Christ could ever fill those shoes -this post is NOT about "itemizing" or counting all of Gods precepts, it is about our...

Well, Mary Is a given name for a female. :D So many different meanings to that name. Even in Hebrew!

That's it, I am moving to the UK. I have always wanted to visit there more than anywhere else. I think I am a Brit housed in an American body :D :D :D Lovely video Helen

Sorry about all those typos :oops:

"The journey since has stripped me bare, and exposed everything I held dear, taken away every prop, and every ground of confidence in the flesh, both my own and others. " How most excellently put!!! I so relate to all of this ♥ Just could NEVER put it so well.

Kind of entering into God's eternal life (Jesus Christ-or Christ Life) while yet living in "time"?

Hi Stunned, I'm not sure what you mean by "the mode" of debating? Has any of those you mentioned been mean or nasty with their replies? I hope I did not do that :oops:
