    Enemies Occupy the Holy Land

    Enemies Occupy the Holy Land Who calls what the Holy Land? Ohhh, you mean Palestine! Is Palestine really a holy land? or is it a land of genocide and much bloodshed? Then, what is the Holy Land? it needs to be defined so that it is Holy, not just given a title which ultimately is...

    Donald Trump - a racist?

    The world is full of racists; racing for everything from being the best big and small ball hitter and kicker to those racing for the Presidency.

    Where I get stuck on in sharing my faith...

    I think God's heart goes out to us at every turn.....dirty diapers and all. His desire to bring us home is consistent and unending. The story crafted by Jesus of the prodigal son which incidentally we could also call the story of the generous father, reveals to us God's character. It is us who...

    Putin Warns The West That Russia Is Ready For Nuclear War

    ahhhhh, now I understand. Your understanding of God is informed by John Wayne movies.....makes sense!

    Where I get stuck on in sharing my faith...

    The image we bear now is but a faint reflection of God when Man was created. Sin has marred and almost defaced God's image in us. Self has become the reference point for most everything we think and do. It was not like this in the beginning. Consider the many theologies which abound and how our...

    Where I get stuck on in sharing my faith...

    God is present and working with all people all the time......do we believe it? God is present when people are ill and when accidents occur. Why is it we pray to remind him to be there......is it because we feel he doesn't care as much as we do or that he is forgetful or too busy with other...

    Why was God so quick to kill Ananias and Sapphira on the spot?

    Why was God so quick to kill Ananias and Sapphira on the spot? Why assume God was the cause of their death?

    Where I get stuck on in sharing my faith...

    You can only share what you have, not what you haven't got, bugalugs. So the question you can ask yourself is, 'what is it I have'? .....and if that seems wanting to you, you know the direction, ie, ask and it will be given, knock and the door will be opened, seek and you will find. Just be...

    TULIP an open discussion

    The difficulty is the key isn't used.....and why isn't it used? because the key is not recognised......and why is that? because when it is presented it is dismissed with pious 'knowing'.

    TULIP an open discussion

    I say, get out of the final digestive tract and recognise humanity encompasses more than a theory and God is greater than mens perceived wisdom.

    Save the whales, Save the elephants, Save the tigers , Save the coy, Save whatever. Save your ego?

    Are there prophets today?

    Are there prophets today? 'What does it profit a man if he gains the whole World yet looses his own soul'?

    Tree of Life in Genesis and Revelation

    Are you familiar with the saying 'forever learning but never coming to a knowledge of the truth' ?

    The New Testament authors favor the prophets. Why?

    The purpose of God's revelation to the Prophets was to reveal himself.....even though the Prophets saw his objective through a dark glass. They interpreted God through their own bias and cultural understanding and wrote accordingly. The New Testament authors recognised God's intent (being...

    Biden - It's not Easter! It's Transgender Day!

    'Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews' Pilate asked. Then they all cried again, saying, not this Man, but Barabas! John 18:39-40

    Biden - It's not Easter! It's Transgender Day!

    You will have the Jesus you know....in your heart, Jack. Which Jesus will you see when he appears in the clouds of heaven? Will it be the one who draws from your lips 'lo, this is our God, we have waited for him' .....or will it be as those who 'cry for the rocks and mountains to fall on them'?

    Biden - It's not Easter! It's Transgender Day!

    Perhaps one day Jack you'll meet Jesus.....even as all who thought God was after 'his pound of flesh' till they met Jesus. Perhaps one day the scales from your eyes and the stops in your ears will disappear and the weeping for your blindness will overtake your hash image of God

    Biden - It's not Easter! It's Transgender Day!

    Is God violent is the question. Does God behave the way many OT scriptures ascribe to him? I would say we (men) have superimposed our/ their sense of justice onto God. It has bent our understanding of God out of shape. We (men) have formulated convoluted views that God requires paying before he...

    Biden - It's not Easter! It's Transgender Day!

    Does God love those who deliberately misrepresent him?.......and that this unfathomable love is unbearable to them? I doubt you understand the connections I'm making in saying these things Jack. Saul of Tarsus also had a particular image of how God is and behaves.....and his attitude and...
