Never saved in the first place, else the efficacy of work of Christ would be put in doubt.

@TLHKAJ :) Similar experience?

@reformed1689 FYI....another thread I started (sorry the poll already expired...)

@Waiting on him Good to see you; I hope you and @VictoryinJesus are doing well.

@Waiting on him Great verses there! the Lord by His Spirit caused those verses to be penned, and it would be hard to claim that the Lord Jesus did not know them.

Hi @TEXBOW I was at a Bible study not long ago, and this was a passage we were studying. It was noted that the Old Testament, earthly character of Israel in the land is very much part of the background of the Psalm.

@reformed1689 FYI....thread I started....

@Cassandra ...and metaphorically, fudge seems to be a perennial way of doing politics....

@Cassandra In any case, it's become so mainstream and widespread, hasn't it? All the young people with Bible verses tattooed that I have talked to seem to have had them done for evangelistic reasons.

Ty for the link...

@FluffyYellowDuck Well, it's so widespread to have one's nose studded and get a bit of ink that it's really not surprising that your mom - who if she went to fashion school, is likely very fashion-conscious - helped and encouraged you a bit to have it done... In any case, a simple little nose...

@FluffyYellowDuck My wife seems to have bad dreams but in the morning can't remember a thing about them.... (My dreams are less bad than stupid.....)

@Truman YW, there is so much in Isaiah....
