    Scripture Interpretation ?

    As Joseph said, interpretations belong to God. I don't think it's a matter of convincing men when they think they know. Seek you will find knock and he door will be opened ask and it will be given These attitudes reveal an attitude of not knowing/wanting to know more.

    Paul's Thorn In The Flesh=Not a Sickness but a Messenger of Satan to buffet me.

    PATIENCE A bleeding brow, a battered face The shredded flesh, some called it grace! A thief that saw rebuked his own And glimpsed what only few had known A flickering hope, a public plea The answer given, you will be free That desperate cry not left unheard This smouldering wick not quenched...

    Paul's Thorn In The Flesh=Not a Sickness but a Messenger of Satan to buffet me.

    Could it be possible that he had poor eyesight resulting from perhaps his Damascus road experience? In one of his communications that apparently he wrote himself he refers to the large letters (large print) he is using implying that other letters he sent were dictated. When it comes to being...

    Not much happening here with fellowship Oz. From time to time I'll take the bike up the coast or the tinny out to the reef. Those things are always good when the weather is suitable. Finding serious gospel folk hasn't happened here yet. There are some religious folk around but they don't stoke...

    And...God didn't say...

    Yes, it is a sobering subject. It has implications that many are not aware of which is in their interest to be aware of.

    And...God didn't say...

    I find man's construction by God is revealing re the question of spirit. It tells us that God formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life or spirit of life or the life force and man became a living soul. Neither the dust or the breath (spirit or life...

    NORMAL OPERATION

    NORMAL OPERATION With practised smiles and trendy garb ‘fine thank you how are you?’ is heard amongst ‘together folk’ we’re well when we are blue The water’s tested as we go to see how we will fare it’s safe to take the plunge I hear our judgement frail and bare In nakedness we interact with...

    And...God didn't say...

    APAK, I'm persuaded that you are drawing conclusions from an totally unstable premise. The premise being the immortality of the soul. We are told that only God has immortality in 1 Timothy 6:16. It is also confirmed in 1 Timothy 1:17 Yes, purification will occur and by fire of all that is...

    Jesus was wrong

    Granted Zack, there is a lot of wasted time in religious activities, probably as much as there is in secular activities, yet saying that Jesus was wrong is indicative of knowing about Jesus without actually knowing him. For instance, one might know all the stories and be able to quote all the...
