You are on my prayer list Frank ♥

"this particular scripture" Not sure I mentioned any specific script. And, I still believe that certain scriptures are aimed at Jews-those who rejected Jesus and still believe the Law will save them. And, the N.C. began at Jesus death so...yes, I think audience is important. Every word in the...

And where did you get this- "The NT writer is not reporting the teaching of Jesus as something "not to be listened to". - from my comment??

Awww, see guys? We can have Kumbaya together! Haha...one sees one thing, the other does not... visa versa- :) love it.

I see a lot of how context is so important, which it is! But, I rarely if ever see anybody mentioning whether their particular scripture, depending on context, was Jesus speaking to Hebrews at the time, who were still under the Law just as Jesus was born under. Nor do I ever see mentioned, was...

I will NEVER give up cheese!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol

I am not as brainy or well articulated as some on here, though I do try and I love to read...I guess my thoughts just fly way too fast and I get ahead of myself. I know you are correct in that as I have re-read several of my posts and found large chunks I forgot to put in there, or it's messy...

Let us all dive deep!! Nice share ♥

Refer to post #566.

Very well put!

I NEVER said it is God's will that we sin!!! But, if (when) we do: 1 John 2:1 "My dear children, I am writing this to you so that you will not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate who pleads our case before the Father. He is Jesus Christ, the one who is truly righteous." I suppose I...

DAILY-THROUGHOUT!!! ...God has this, Amen.

I have a friend in California, him and his wife live this way, as well as a handful from this area...their land is out north of where I am. They built cabins, a huge garden, fruit trees...the works. I always loved that idea. As far as your Trib. comment...I have no comment, lol.

Good post! IMHO- when one tries to mix law with grace, it make Jesus ONCE FOR ALL sacrifice all for nothing. It's like saying that His sacrifice to free us FROM the law, didn't work :confused:

There many different "wills" of God: perfect will of God, decreed will of God,perceptive will, God's preferential (desiderative) will, God's "directive will, and others. Bible.org: (4) There is what we might call God's "permissive will." This is what God allows, even though it is sin. God...

Yes, sin is sin is sin. Far a I am concerned the 10 Commandments simply tell us what sin is. We have God's permissible will to sin but, what true Christian want's to sin? His love causes us to NOT want to sin and we do not live under any law, we follow Jesus. Just too simple I guess.

I'm just saying it is not as easy to do that for some. She wears a face mask on the bad days, at least. I wish I lived near them, help them out somehow. She reminds me of my mom so, I have a special place in my heart for her. ♥

And, where would you expect Helen to go Mark? I know I would have a tough time because of my 3 dogs. And, not many have the money to just drive far away and stay in a motel if there are no relatives nearby that is not getting smoked out. And yeah, we reap what we sow but, how does that have...

I have been led to believe these saints who had passed, were set free by Jesus when He descended to Abraham's bosom. He told them of His victory over Satan, and set the captives free!! If "to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord" then, those who were in Abraham's bosom (OT...

Good post Apak. I do believe that tongues are used today but, my guess is it is used in the far corners and little pockets of the world. I can certainly understand missionary's, not knowing these languages, and visa versa, being empowered with the gift of tongues (languages) to be able to...
