I gave you a LOVE because I love how you explained everything regarding the relationship between parents and children in the OT. I do want to disagree however, with the idea that today we are following Jesus and not our parents. I hope I haven't misunderstood you John. When I give kids...

Of course the Holy Spirit will guide us,,,,but there is so much to know. Jesus sent His Apostles to teach the nations what they had been taught. And what did those do BEFORE the NT was assembled? They heard from the Apostles and from those the Apostles had taught. NT Wright wrote many books...

No definitely not. Everyone has sinned except for Jesus. Noah, Abraham, David they sinned....this is not why I mentioned them. I did so because the bible states that they were righteous men... for instance: Genesis 6:9 9This is the account of Noah and his family. Noah was a righteous man...

Great point Pearl. Just one thing... Jesus had a body. Do you think God Father has a body? The bible teaches that He is spirit. I think you meant Jesus (who is God). Must go. 'night

What happens when there's some kind of conflict?? Read my other post to you. Happy waffling! Good night.

I have to leave Verily.... Just want to say, yes, we were made upright, but we fell when Adam fell. But I also don't believe there is none righteous, no not one. We're told that Noah was righteous,,,David was righeous, Abraham was righteous. Paul was taking the idea from Psalm 14 and was...

Right. But do you believe there is none righteous? Or do you believe this is referring back to Psalm 14:1-5 and is hyperbole?

You're understanding something from the above verses that I just don't. But that's OK. The Holy Spirit speaks to us individually also. I just don't agree with those that say that there are none righteous -- I thought that maybe you meant this. But it seems you're going to places I've never...

Do you stay at home when you have appendicitis or do you go to a hospital? Why go there? It's an organization.

What does this mean? Yes,,,I think we have to agree that God will forgive us of our sins...is this what you're referring to?

I just responded to @Verily . See my post 43. We are made upright when we become born again and desire to please God. And do you think we will be accounted for our sins after we ask forgiveness?

Yes,,,I agree. This goes back to how I said that our sin nature affects every attribute God gave to us. He made us upright....but unless we become born again and obey God...we have fallen. And may still fall --- but God always helps us to get back up and continue on our path.

I think I'm understanding what you're saying. I follow Jesus, but I also read and learn from what the other writers wrote. Personally, for me, I see no difference, but I get what you're saying. I've learned that some follow Paul...I think it's called Paul only. This is nonsense and I don't...

Pepper....But the above is not what I'm looking for!! The above are God's attributes....right....no doubt. But did He pass them on to mankind? Not all of them... Let me say this though: From your list: We are eternal souls just like God is eternal. There is some good in us....God IS all...

Everything is good Pepper. Could you post an attribute of God that He passed on to mankind? I have a couple more but then I'll be pretty much done because there are really a lot and this takes time... Thanks!

Right. I think Paul did this too, but going to the next paragraph. Didn't Jesus also teach in having faith in Him? He said that we have to abide in Him, He said that we have to believe in Him, Believe and Faith mean almost the same. Re the Law...I think this is where we can say that they...

I think you got a few things wrong there...and I do say wrong because they're not a matter of opinion. People bow to the Queen and King and the royal family of England too. Do you accuse them of being the anti-Christ? It's a way of showing some type of respect....it's not they REALLY respect...

@pepper Surely a thread about God's attributes should be impossible to turn into an argument. Please post an attribute of God's that you find helpful or interesting or even just apparent as belonging to both God and man. Thanks to both of you.

Did you mean Gracie!!

OK But I couldn't understand your post because it was referring to the form as if you were speaking of God or Christ. Sorry if I misunderstood...IOW, the HUMAN form.
