    Prayed & didn't like the answer I received?

    Second guessing is a tricky business all round!

    Why did God...

    It appears you are having a conversation with yourself. You imagine two sides one which you call 'Quiet' How do I know this? because you know what 'Quiet' is thinking and concluding ....and the other in the conversation freely dishes out advice to 'Quiet' :)

    How Do You Show Love To Believers of Other Denominations?

    I see your understanding of Grace is limited to human values which you then foist onto God. If it's not good news (gospel) for sinners, it becomes a trading arrangement where God makes demands and if you don't meet them you fry. Good news of Jesus draws but 'good advice' is the domain of every...

    Saw 666 3 times in 5 mins?

    The boundary between spinning off in ones imagination and staying on track is definitely a challenge. The number 666 has leant itself to the production of movies and to all manner of dreamt up unrelated stuff. Stay on track. Be careful of your imagination. Watch, so you are not led down the...

    Why did God...

    It's who not what; it's him not it.

    Why did God...

    We, ie me, loves to get. What I mean by that is when I see a pretty girl and I love the way she looks my thoughts are about getting ie, satisfaction. I reflect on John 3:16 and am ashamed. 'For God so loved the World he gave.....' When God loves his desires are to give....to the World. Jesus...

    Dancing and Mourning

    Matthew 11:17 ‘We played the pipe for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not mourn.’ Is Jesus saying, no matter what approach is used, the 'flat liner' element (non responsive) pervades?

    If we don’t suffer, how is God supposed to sympathize with us?

    This Planet's M.O. is one of suffering and God has identified with us. We are all in a fishbowl even if some want to believe they are in the Ocean. We are invited to look outside the fishbowl by seeing Jesus, the identifier with our limitations .....so that we can see.

    HOW one sees

    Is the expression 'how one sees' understood? Is there a difference between what is seen and how it is seen? Is there a consciousness of the difference? ......and what do we use as a reference point? It is the how factor which interests me. For example, a Jew will see differently to a Muslim...

    Why not Everyone will be Saved

    In the interim I s'pose we just shower all and sundry with bucket loads of advice?

    Ohhhh, you don't know?

    Why did God...

    You sound like a religious interrogator. Is it because you do not want to hear the answers given and insist on setting up a decoy?

    Why did God...

    They are straight forward answers which address the premise of your questions.

    Why did God...

    John 8:44 You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies Revelation...
