If you LIVE by the Law, you fall from grace. I mean, why did Jesus even die?? Living under Law to keep His commandments (which are not burdensome) is actually being unfaithful to Jesus finished work. Jesus commands are given that we might so to speak, exchange our heavy burdens for His light...

True, Satan believes but he sure doesn't obey!! he trembles..

It seems that many people just see the word "commandment" and, automatically think The Big 10...why I wonder??

"I like to say God is all-good.." Well, that's exactly what Omnibenevolent means. You will not find the other 3 attributes worded that way in script either but, plenty of scripture pans all of them out. I like to say He is ALL in ALL. And yes, He IS Love, He is Merciful, He is Just...He is...

Oh yawn, so God came through again...what else is new???! LOL...SOOOO happy it is not a tumor...hopefully the clots can be busted up and she will be fine!! PTL!

"I still think that having to wait all that time to get an answer is very bad ." DITTO!

Well, I guess that covers it, lol! Good script.

I agree @brakelite Sorry Mark, I'm with B.L. here. Is not the description of the 2nd coming of Jesus exactly what the Jews were looking for when Jesus came as a suffering servant? They were expecting the King of Kings to come and free them from the oppression of Rome...it seems they were...

"Fortunately we rely on the Great Physician to get past many of these seemingly unsolvable troubles." <---And, that brings me peace. I no longer fret in the slightest when I bring my vehicle in for repair ♥ And, yes indeed, there are doctors, and there are "doctors". Money and prestige seem...

Lol, that's funny Helen!

Are these some of the attributes/characteristics of God that we can all agree on? Do you limit God Almighty? My personal belief is that God is all of the above...and more-He is ALL. Any biters, lol?

Wow, that's pretty bad practice on the part of the medical community. I suppose I am quite blessed to live near many different options for care, and as I worked in one of the, if not THE largest Healthcare network in the area-have met many Doctors, nurses etc...and patients LOVE to talk about...

"the joy of the Lord is our strength" "In the presence of the Lord is the fullness of joy.." <---excellent verses! "I believe that some muddle joy with happiness." <---- Very much so, and like you said "...it is hard to separate deep joy from peace" So to me...true joy and deep peace go hand in...

Good, I hope I p-off that evil thing! lol...

I think we can all agree that obedience to God is very important, but there is def a difference between being obedient under the Law and being obedient under faith. In the O.T., it was required under threat of death, did not matter what the state of the persons heart was. Now, we are under a...

Agree 100%! Not always easy to hold tight to that joy...sometimes it can be a struggle on certain days...Satan knows our every move and every weakness just waiting for a foothold to grab onto...and God knows, I have plenty of them! Lol.

Hahahaha I pretty much enjoy Mark's posts. Probably not so much if they were lengthy, lol.

BTW- you said:"imo it is only too easily misunderstood" I said: "I do not believe "Hell" is easily understood." Same thing, yes? "Tomorrow is what it's all about with Christians" For some yes, not all, not for myself, for me it's moment by moment. "...will not fill the coffers near as well...

Sorry Soulman I just saw this. My post was primarily to show biblically, and not to mention, my own experience in my faith, how we CAN be fulfilled in this world. God as our heavenly Father, wants us to be happy people, he wants marriages to grow strong, He wants us to succeed in our dreams...

AMEN @amadeus - I come here for fellowship and learning, to support and to be supported. Prayer is IMHO the most powerful gift God has given us and if used in faith, as Gods will be done, we just need trust that He has the best of the best for His children ♥ BTW- any news from the Dr.'s office...
