    Are Christians the biggest barrier to a renewed relationship with God?

    You have yet to discern body language in which the words are embedded, Jack

    In the OT, God said do not eat the pork.

    I guess there's no problem then with having some meth as a side dish!

    In the OT, God said do not eat the pork.

    I take the view that most 'food' we purchase through regular outlets are affected by poisons of some sort. What do I do about it? I take calculated risks on some items. I think the health laws regarding unclean and clean in Leviticus 11 are worth taking note of......and here I am in the golden...

    The Two Witnesses Came and Went Thousands of Years Ago

    The word 'soul' is not a conscious entity in its own right that goes somewhere at death. It is not something we have, it is what we are ie, living souls.

    There's a Wideness in God's Mercy

    Yet if they don't jump through your hoops they are unacceptable!

    The Two Witnesses Came and Went Thousands of Years Ago

    A teacher is teaching the arithmetic of addition to a class of children saying 1+1=2. He repeats it several times using various illustrations so it is not misunderstood. A child chimes in, Sir, do you believe in numbers?

    The Two Witnesses Came and Went Thousands of Years Ago

    The text says we became, it doesn't say we received. When power (energy) is connected to a globe does it become a light or receive a light? When breath (spirit/ life force/ energy) is connected to dust does it become a soul or receive a soul? Breath is not an entity in itself Reverse the...

    The Two Witnesses Came and Went Thousands of Years Ago

    You write as if you understand what Jesus meant. Perhaps you can enlighten us?

    The Two Witnesses Came and Went Thousands of Years Ago

    You are a living soul. We are living souls. To reiterate, we are souls, we do not have souls. Misunderstand this and you will do violence to the texts you quote and muddle the straight forward into supporting a delusion. Genesis 2:7 'The Lord God formed man from the dust of the ground...

    Moses

    Could it be that Moses was resurrected? ....after all, he was seen talking with Jesus as was Elijah on the Mt of Transfiguration. If this is the case, no wonder Moses' grave was never found or will never be found just as Jesus' grave will never be found. ....and yes, Elijah was bodily taken to...

    In the OT, God said do not eat the pork.

    Yes, we are free to eat what we want. We are also free to divorce each other and we are free to jump off cliffs. Hallelujah to freedom but don't leave your intelligence behind....there are consequences to all our choices.

    The Two Witnesses Came and Went Thousands of Years Ago

    The Patriarchs never heard of Jesus nevertheless Job comments of hope, (Job 19:25-27) 'I know that my redeemer lives, and that in the end he will stand on the earth. And after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God; I myself will see him with my own eyes—I, and not another...

    Are Christians the biggest barrier to a renewed relationship with God?

    I would then ask, what is the witness God has given of himself? The scriptural records are 2-4000 yrs old written from unfamiliar cultures/ languages. We need a reference which is beyond 'academic'.

    Jesus dying on the cross

    hmmmmmm, double hmmmmmm!

    Are Christians the biggest barrier to a renewed relationship with God?

    Do we then deduct that God who we understand as all knowing made a bad move or do we reconsider the words Moses wrote by reinterpreting through the lens of Jesus?
