soap, ah yes, soap.....only bubbles and a lot of spitting.

Lemon juice and toothpaste for the mouth but Grace and Compassion for the head and heart. The latter absorbed cleans the mouth....even without lemon juice and toothpaste!

The greatness of ordinariness is only appreciated by the enlightened. Eyes that see and ears which hear are awakened to this fact. Paul puts it this way, 'But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.

What happens to faithful Christians when they die? The big word is....are you listening?....HORRIZONTAL.....just like cows and chimpanzees. In fact, there are some stages after Horizontal. If nobody has noticed, here's the heads-up. A kind of stiffness comes on and if you leave it long enough...

Did I say anything about vegetarianism, Pavel? Did I say anything about any Church? How have you joined the dots? HEARING Pavel, is critical if one wants understanding. If you are not aware of your assumptions, poor hearing/seeing....as you have demonstrated is inevitable.

amazing how eating dead animals appeals to us!

Many Say ‘Just Believe’… But What Did Jesus Actually Teach? He taught that God was identical to himself; his words, his behaviour/ relating.

My understanding is the soul is as Lambano has quoted (Genesis 2:7) ....and the spirit is the attitude, the consciousness in/ with which a person operates. At death both cease to be until called forth at the resurrection of which the scripture tells are there are two.

I guess being held to account is uncomfortable. John the Baptist didn't loose his head for nothing. .....and egging people on to draw their own conclusions can also be uncomfortable, particularly when they are encouraged to think out side the box or in other words, introducing a paradigm which...

Do you mean asking questions and holding people to account for what they say?

How do you make a determination TTW?

So God is beholden to the laying on of human hands before he dispenses his Spirit?

I don't think it matters, seer. When Jesus healed, sometimes he did it with just a word, other times put mud on the eyes and told them to wash. It is the same with the Spirit. Some people have a dramatic experience, others don't. The evidence of having the Spirit is of course a change of heart...
