    The Problem With TIME.

    Oh--that was painful to watch! I only watched the first one, and will go back and watch the second. But thought I would comment at this halfway point, then perhaps revisit after part 2. Thank you--those are all good points... BUT, if you can imagine, that would be like two of the best of...

    The Problem With TIME.

    I posted this in the Blogs...but it is just so important that I thought I would post it here too. Which I do, because the issue and misunderstanding about Time with regard to God and the scriptures, i.e. Bible Study-- Is, I find myself stating facts against the comments and beliefs of many good...

    The Problem With TIME.

    It’s not that there’s not enough time, but too much of it. Time was created. Yes, the subject and problem with time is a religious issue. Which is likely to leave many if not most, out of their element—even the religious. One must first understand that everything—including time—exist within...

    When a believer dies, will he be with God as a sentient being right away?

    Like all biblical issues, this is one where Time gets in the way of fully understanding. The issue is clouded by the illusion of time. If we can consider that time is part of this created world but not a part of our eternal God, then this issue is one that needs to be translated from terms of...

    I started a BLOG today -- CHEESEBURGERS WITH GOD!

    It was I. It's a blog author's choice, as some blogs are to spark conversation, and some are not.

    A Time Before Land-- looking back.... A New Adventure Series with Mr E

    If I were to indulge such imagination, it would go something like this: Moses going out into the darkness outside the camp after all the plagues upon Egypt and crossing the Red Sea realizing that God is a god of miracles, falling to his knees weeping and crying out, saying, "Oh God, is this...

    A Time Before Land-- looking back.... A New Adventure Series with Mr E

    All things are in God. Slice up that Rock. Go ahead. Which slice came into being first, and which one last? But, no, time is an illusion of this world...even if some do not know it yet.

    A Time Before Land-- looking back.... A New Adventure Series with Mr E

    There are exceptions, but I get your point. And I could further point out the error of "chance"...but I am not convinced it would be profitable at this time. Meanwhile, your heartfelt sentiments regarding the gospel, are more than sufficient. What is written of the errors of those sent by...

    Is the Gift of Salvation nullified by the consequences of refusal?

    Sorry, I just saw that I left out the word "don't" in saying, "I [don't] do much opinion or mere belief here." I corrected/edited it. But, yes, we do and should all proceed along in the what you have described...so long as we remember, or better yet, expect that God sends some with words from...

    Why didn't god give every soul as much time as it needed to become good? Why send so many to hell?

    Is that the question then? Because you never asked that. You just ranted an obvious and predictable rant...and I explained what the problem and the actual circumstances are. But, hey, have it your way (Burger King). The choice is yours, you, like us all, die either knowing or not knowing all...

    A Time Before Land-- looking back.... A New Adventure Series with Mr E

    This is all of our backyard. But, okay, just one last point: You do realize that you just responded as virtually all have first done down through the ages when confronted with the truth from God. But no, it appears you don't. Nothing new under the sun. Still...the message is: Change.

    Is the Gift of Salvation nullified by the consequences of refusal?

    I wouldn't know about Calvinism...but what I do know is not what I think. Disclaimer: I don't do much opinion or mere belief here with regard to the things of God, if at all. So if I seem matter-of-fact, it's because I am. You don't have to believe it, but you might give some consideration to...

    A Time Before Land-- looking back.... A New Adventure Series with Mr E

    It would appear there are two treads now off on the wrong track. So, here, I am going to quote myself from the other thread, rather than repeat: There are a few misunderstandings in that--biblically speaking. That of assuming our choices are made after experiencing life in this world. They are...

    Is the Gift of Salvation nullified by the consequences of refusal?

    There are a few misunderstandings in that. First, the gift of salvation is not "conditional", but is simply a choice. Which then raises another issue, that of assuming the choice is made after experiencing life in this world. It's not. That's not what the world is. On the contrary, the world...

    Is the Gift of Salvation nullified by the consequences of refusal?

    That point is only true if greater value is placed on the gift than on refusing the gift by those who refuse it. Meaning rather, that refusal would not actually be extortion, but would be stupid.

    Don't get me wrong--I think what you are doing is great. It's just that coloring within the lines is rather important. ;)

    A Time Before Land-- looking back.... A New Adventure Series with Mr E

    This (above) is a departure from what is written. The world and creation are not (biblically) an "experiment", but were established "before the foundation of the world." To the contrary, it is mankind who has experimented.

    Is the Gift of Salvation nullified by the consequences of refusal?

    That was the explanation of a gift only being a gift if it is received, and otherwise only an offer (as defined by God from the gift side, but defined differently by those who refuse the gift--by their own doing, not God's doing. God's doing is all gift). So, yes, two sides: the side of the...
