It is his post 235 and I read it for it was made in response to my post 202. Jesus' prayer is for unity in the Body of Christ. Reading my post 202 carefully you might understand why it does not change my position at all on my understanding of the nature of God. I cannot believe in a...

No, it is the question I have put to many staunch Trinitarians. Not one has explained it, and few have tried. How can there be a Trinity of God without a Multiplicity of God forthcoming when you read carefully the verse you posted? Almost no one wants to hear what I believe... unless they are...

LOL..: Multiplicity! No one over the years has ever clarified that for me in connection with his own beliefs...

I guess you could, say, 'garbage'. My wife calls it the 'crud' when she gets a cold or the flu.

Hello good friend and brother in Christ, Mark Balicki. You have been missed. Rejoin us here when you can. I appreciated your words and videos.

I must disagree. Look at the shades as well as the allegory. Ishmael had a lessor blessing, but blessing it was... not a curse. "And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and...

"Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee." Psalm 139:12

What I read in Galatians 4 does not say that exactly. It speaks of the two sons of Abraham: one the son of a bondwoman [Ishmael born to Hagar] and the other the son of a freewoman [Isaac born to Sarah]. It speaks of this being an allegory of the two covenants, one from Mt Sinai and the other of...

I guess I misunderstood your purpose. I apologize!

Praying for the baby!

I do not believe so! This woman coming to Jesus for help was called a dog because she was Not a Jew but a Canaanite, a gentle heathen. Jesus called her a dog and she agreed: Mt 15:24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Mt 15:25 Then came...

Continuing to pray!

Praying!

No one was tagged or named, so to whom is your question addressed and what is the antecedent of "it"?

You are not the only one, who missed him, Helen, and @ScottA is not the only one missed here... but we cannot keep even good things always the same.

Amen! I started to tell a true story similar to the Walton story, but I could not do it... I will say that people really do work that way at times, not carefully weighing all of costs versus benefits involved.

This was on the Prayer Forum when I posted what I did. A moderator has moved the whole thing to this forum. I have therefore deleted my post. Carry on...!

While book burning may well make a comeback, memorization is certainly not our only recourse. Our recourse is God Himself as it always has been. Memorization of scripture can certainly be a good thing, but we should not presume God is so limited as that. Such a presumption can be another way to...

Amen! Everyone is given that measure of faith but what do we do with what we have been given? How many are burying it or covering it up? "But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money." Matt 25:18 What are we doing with our Light? Are we putting it under...
