God created us to love and serve us but we have it the other way around. Here is another text where Jesus tells us he will serve us. Luke 12:37 37'Blessed are those servants whom the master, when he comes, will find watching. Assuredly, I say to you that he will gird himself and have them sit...

Human leadership thinks problems are solved with violence. I makes no difference which leadership it is, including Israel

Consider what a beast is. If you were to say 'that person is a beast' what images come up in your mind or what conclusions do you draw? I find it gives me a reference point to keep me spinning off into fantasy land when it comes to this stuff. The line drawn in the sand has a beast on one side...

We assume the right approach is that we are to serve God. What do you think of this.....the highlighted part in vs 28? Matthew 20:24-28 And when the ten heard it, they were greatly displeased with the two brothers. 25But Jesus called them to Himself and said, “You know that the rulers of the...

Demonising the opposition makes anything possible. Nuclear war and even saying the Iranians don't care if millions die. I don't suppose you know any Iranians? Perhaps Jesus didn't die for them?

Thanks for weighing in Hillsage. I tend to see events of the Flood and Sodom and Gomorrah as types where there is finality for some and rescue for others. Forgiveness I see is for all mankind but not all want it; not all care for the principles of the Kingdom of God. The option the majority...

It is assumed Salvation is all about us being saved. While the redemption of humanity (some will debate this) is the result of God's activity, I think we err when we make it all about us. I reflect on what the scriptures mean by, 'the lamb slain from the foundation of the World'? Wasn't the lamb...

He does discover new lies and the most potent are the ones he hides in what people believe is the word of God like for instance when Jesus pointed this out, he said, 'You have heard said an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth but I say unto you, do not resist an evil man' or 'you have heard...

Wow, you've got quiet a story happening in your head! Admittedly, there are many who claim great insight which becomes obvious as not being the case when one listens to the rambling but to conclude what nondescript 'others' are concluding is just a cheap shot at what one doesn't understand.

if thats what you've concluded about what I believe then your 'clarity' is very dim......and I would like to add re your comment of 'we're done'; don't you think that's a reflection of a certain unwillingness to discover new, unfamiliar and wonderful truths you are clearly unfamiliar with?

All who have ever believed the gospel throughout human history have been persecuted on some level starting with Able

You have engaged intellectual dishonesty in how you have quoted Hebrews in regard to Enoch, David

It appears you have a lot of cognitive information F2F, but my question is what do you witness to?

It's unfortunate you wouldn't consider a view other than what you consider unquestionable. Why is it unfortunate? I see two primary reasons, 1...you consider your conclusions beyond error. 2...that your view is in lock step with God's

Yes, what was their testimony? I'll let those who think they know who the witnesses are witness to that, then we can ask further questions on their testimony.

Could the Old Testament writers have been mistaken in many of their conclusions about God. Is there courage to explore this?

now that's a smart question!

The questions asked take on a different emphasis, a different nature after having met Jesus. One questions from the crucifixion, the other from the resurrection. One formulates questions from death, the other from life One from darkness, the other from lightness. One from before the wheel was...

We’re the two witnesses from the past? The words 'witness' and 'past' are inextricably linked. Have you ever known a witness to be from the future? If you were in a court setting (meaning, the is an accuser, a defence and witnesses) and you opted for a witness from the future, you'd be thrown...

God is definitely not pouring out judgements in the way it is generally understood. And how is it generally understood? That God is so p.ssed he needs to let his revenge be felt. Why is this the commonly understood view by the religious? because they have not understood the nature of our God...
