    PRAYING EARNESTLY

    When I read the Lord's Prayer I see Jesus blessing God. When it gets down to 'gives this day our daily bread' it sounds like a request that God already knows about....so why ask him? Alternatively, it can be read justifiably as 'you give me my daily bread, you forgive us or trespasses..' The...

    they are saying its the weather but....

    They know what it is is my guess. Playing dumb only works for so long when I have seen how they operate. The people are easily fooled.

    The 10 Commandments are FOREVER

    The context of Romans 5:15-19 is, all in Adam, all in Christ. Adam and Jesus did for us what we did not do for ourselves.....for all people ....no personal choice involved. The message we share with all people is the Good news that they are (past tense) reconciled to God through Jesus. What they...

    The 10 Commandments are FOREVER

    The in's and out's SDA don't concern me. My focus is on my Jesus and his salvation for all mankind. Sadly, many refuse this free gift. They try some other way of getting into the sheepfold. What I do know of SDA is that they are falsely accused of trying to get to heaven by keeping the Law. I...

    Genesis 1, a day, and Billions of years

    AJ, why are you so resistant to anything that could be possible apart from your WT theories? Why divert attention by trying to squirm out of the hot seat and attempt to put me in it? To me it smacks of dogged stubbornness and desperation.

    God Will Have Vengeance on His People

    The greatest danger of sin persisted in, is that one will lose the ability to believe one has been forgiven. Men generate and perpetrate vengeance on themselves. Judas suicided not because he couldn't be or wasn't forgiven but because he believed he couldn't be. He made God in his own image...

    The 10 Commandments are FOREVER

    @1stCenturyLady ....Our (all humanity) condition is like a rusty old car, overgrown and to all appearances unsalvageable. (as in Adam all die) Our status on the other hand is determined by how God sees us in Jesus all are made alive....that is how God see's us.....and we grasp that by...

    The 10 Commandments are FOREVER

    No 1CL....I'm sorry to burst your bubble of assumptions and the package that comes with those assumptions.....however, I want you to know, I don't hold it against you. :)

    God Will Have Vengeance on His People

    I'm mad about the blindness and ignorance that is perpetuated and justified. Did Jesus whip the money changers??? Quoting scripture without context means little. Understanding God's vengeance does not have one arriving at the conclusion that it's payback time in the way humans view it.

    The 10 Commandments are FOREVER

    You have not understood what I have said 1CL....and besides, why is there a constant reference to SDA?

    Genesis 1, a day, and Billions of years

    Of course you don't understand anything cryptic by your own admission or cultural idioms and it seems you're not willing to....it might contradict your views. It sets you up for a world of guesswork when it comes to understanding Prophecies which employ these things. Straining knats and...

    God Will Have Vengeance on His People

    yeah, confusion is the standard MO for those who trumpet a vengeful God while at the same time speak of him as saving.....that's got to be obvious. Confusion erodes surety and puts the mouth into babbling mode. Confusion hides behind many words because it doesn't see clearly.

    The 10 Commandments are FOREVER

    You confuse status and condition. Our status is we are holy and undefiled and spotless; our condition is we are miserable sinners tainted with selfishness. Imagining our present condition to be faultless is nothing but a delusion with self honesty being far away.

    Genesis 1, a day, and Billions of years

    really??....blow me down, I didn't know that day and night were determined by the Earth going around the Sun; I thought it was the determined by the earth rotating on its axis.....Shucks, I better check I've got ten fingers as well....all my counting might be skew as well!

    Genesis 1, a day, and Billions of years

    have you asked a religious Jew what it means?...or do you mean God created through the night and daytime only got a mention briefly? (morning) that's if the sun was up. :) ...and what if it means, the night and the day....how would that fit into your theory? I think you better get some advice...

    Genesis 1, a day, and Billions of years

    You need to speak to some Jewish folk and ask them. Us Westerners are so dogmatic when it comes to understanding Jewish idiom....we do ourselves a disservice and wear our ignorance like a badge of honour.
