Well, God sure knew where to find Adam, but still asked him where he was. lol. "And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?" Genesis 3:9 "Does he still need to give the test then? " He doesn't need to do anything, to me it seems that God just might be asking the...

If we are seen by God as detestable rodents or roaches, why did He love us so much? "For God so loved the world..."God HATES sin, not His human creation, made in His image...but the sin in His creation. I'm not sure I am following exactly what you are saying about "God setting a trap" I know...

Neither faith or obedience is a "fruit of the Spirit".

So then, you believe a just and merciful God would send a fetus in the womb, (not yet born of water) and those who are mentally incapable of making even the most basic of decisions will be held accountable even though they had NO free will choice in the matter. So, you do NOT believe in free...

Actually, "faithfulness" is a fruit of the Spirit...not faith. They are very different. God has given each a measure of faith to build upon. We are to exercise that faith in trusting Him and acknowledging Him in ALL our ways. And, ANYTHING one does without the Holy Spirit is of the flesh...

Yikes, I thought that was underlined! :oops:

Good answers. Would not all the trials we were promised would come at us in this world be considered tests of a sort? How do we react to trials and tribulations? With fretting and worrying? Or with calm faith, even though we might not see a way out...He is such a Way Maker! ♥ Worldly trials...

*Mentally Ill

John 9:41"to those who were offended at his teaching and asked if he thought they were blind-he said, "If you were blind, you would not have had sin; but since you say, 'We see,' your sin remains." An infant, not to mention the mentally, does not have the natural capacity to see Gods will or...

Ha! Good one :)

2 Corinthians 5:21 "God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God." That's how I understand this, anyhow. :)

I am not golfer but, didn't you miss one thing in the list of stuff one needs to keep their eye on before hitting the ball? Maybe, the BALL!! LOLOL j/k BL.. :D

Be a "doer" and not just a "hearer". So easy to "hear" but, put the rubber to the road and....then we will know the difference...:eek:

Then how can I , in good conscience look my unsaved friends and family in the eyes and tell them that "God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."? I DO understand that there will be few who take the...

David L. You seem to be a proponent of Individual Selection? The way I understand it is that aThe Holy Spirit is who is sent forth to awaken the consciences of men so they see their need. If they harden their hearts enough times, their hearts become seared and will never come to the truth...

"...badly interpreted verses.." Do you have a few examples of these scriptures Epis? Are you speaking about the "correction" verses?

"Jesus healed on the Sabbath but He didn't saw table legs on it. " - So, where do you draw the line?? Seems to me there were a slew of things one could, or could not do on a Sabbath day. Do you follow that list? "I was making $10,000/month at Bellsouth in 2006 and lost my job for refusing to...

Spot on and good post, fine job! "peace is an inside thing, not an outside thing." Oh how true that is. If our peace is on the inside...which it should be, it is impossible for Satan to steal it ♥

I have not in the least even suggested diminishing Gods Righteousness or sovereignty...if some one receives a gift, do you see that as works? I also thought I was pretty specific in contrasting works of the flesh and works of the Spirit. And, yes, the works are prepared in advance that we...

"note that the same gift will return "twice the sons of hell you are" and "seven worse spirits" too though, right" I do believe this refers to the Pharisees and Law keepers-who rejected The Spirit of God and He no longer will reside with this person which in turn leaves their soul open to all...
