Amen sister. Stranger

You say where we dwell on earth in relation to His Presence, is also where we will dwell in heaven. What do you base this on? Because what you are saying is that my relationship there will be no better than my relationship here. In other words, nothing changes. Stranger

Why is it odd? Do you not see the great division in this country? We are united by law only. The people are not united. Yes secession is political division. But we are divided already. Our supposed unity is a house of cards, ready to fall. Secession is division. But it isn't wrong...

Indeed, there is no right to secede today. But, that is because that right was taken away in 1865 by war and invasion. As to the liberals and left, you must recognize that the divide between leftist atheists and Christian right is too great to ever breach. You should be able to see that...

He's not looking for reasons to believe. He is looking for reasons to doubt. Read all his posts. You can act on your supposition if you like. Stranger

(John 5:3) Pay attention. I said Jesus came to the impotent man. The impotent man didn't come to Jesus. I believe what the Scripture says. There were a multitude of sick around the pool. The impotent man wanted to be healed but couldn't get to the pool due to others getting there before...

I don't understand what you are saying, and how that pertains to universalism. Stranger

What a blind statement you have made. A multitude of sick folk were by the pool. The impotent man said to Jesus after Jesus asked him if he wanted to be healed, (John 5:7) "...I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another stepppeth down...

'Universalism' is not true. That Christ died for all is true. Christ has not failed to save the world. The world has failed to come to Christ. You ask how will 'universalism' be done? It won't. Because the vast majority of the world reject the salvation Christ secured. Stranger

Your words are of one who is not a Christian. Why do you wear the brand on this forum? Just so you can enter into the Christian areas? In (John 5:1-16) you see Christ heal the man at the pool of Bethsda. Yet there were many that needed healing. But Christ only healed one. In other words...

Yes it does. And it doesn't put the blame on God's will. It puts the blame on us. I believe praying is a learning experience for the Christian. So that we learn how to pray by even understanding that many of our prayers go unanswered or that they go unanswered for awhile. Without a...

(Luke 11:11) doesn't speak to unanswered prayer. It speaks to answered prayer. Stranger

You don't need to remove Joseph. Stranger

It doesn't matter if Joseph had nothing to do with the conception. There are still 14 generations from the carrying away into Babalylon to Christ. Stranger

Science's only motive should be to make discoveries and learn. It should have no motive in disproving God's omniscience. And, God was not giving explanation of natural phenomena. In Job you see much of the supernatural. As you do throughout the Bible. Stranger

It isn't really a question of 'real' or 'allegory'. An allegory in the Bible is real also. See (Gal. 4:22-26) Sarah and Hagar were real. One was free born, one was in bondage. They were an allegory in speaking to being born of promise or being born in bondage. And being born in bondage...

My question was in response to your statement in your post #18. So, reread my post #51. Then again I ask, what does your answer have to do with the kingdom of God being in someone. In other words, you started it. Stranger

Sorry, but what does that have to do with the kingdom of God being within someone? Stranger

'undiscovered'? So you are saying the Pharisees had the kingdom of God in them? Those who are of the devil have the kingdom of God in them? (John 8:41-44) Stranger

If you agree with Sword, then why not answer my question in post #33? Read my post #38 to see more of my position. Stranger
