You mustn't have read the manual on self sabotage. The first chapter declares it a very lonely road and only to be undertaken by those who think they are right :)

Why do People Pray for the Dead? I suppose it's because they can't pray for themselves. Strange isn't it? If they've gone to heaven you think they'd be putting in a good word for us while we continue to drop bombs on each other and they don't need praying for anyway and if they've gone to hell...

You are arguing intent and the limitation of words and in the process missing the point. You have fixated on a text and stretch it every which way without understanding the heart of God....the fruit of which is judgement of others.

read back over your posts objectively.

Thank you for your answer 1CL however, in spite of all the words you haven't answered the question directly....instead, you have wandered around. Perhaps go back to the question. :)

and so you give and example of how you morph the conversation to keep the confusion rolling.

I see your rational as wanting. There can be no security other than that falsely driven by ego if one has the view some are chosen and others not contrary to what Paul tells us half a dozen time in Romans 5. Do you lie to people when sharing the good news of Salvation if God has not chosen...

what has that got to do with the communication between you and me?

have you stopped sinning 1CL?

daggers coming out again??

The choices of people do not qualify for God's choice.

Quenching is done when solutions are sought in areas God has not revealed. Everything needed for our peace and internal security is provided in the scriptures and it is the role of the Spirit to bring these things to our awareness and joy.

the word 'world' or the expression 'in Adam' as Paul uses it it Romans 5:14-21 means all humanity. This qualifies as Good News for all people just as the angels sang on Bethlehem's Hills. Luke 2:10

If God so loved the World he considers them friends because you don't give your life for those you don't care about.

The human race is a brotherhood....all in Adam, all in Christ. From God's perspective there is a unity; he sees his erring creatures redeemed yet not all want to see it as God see's it. It is preferred by many to have those which are in and those which are out. They trust the judgement of their...

Here is something to consider; all are in Adam are they not and Adam is in all. All are also in Christ as the scripture says but Christ is not in all. Why is Christ not in all? Because they refuse the love of the truth that they are in Christ. They reject the new representative of the Human race...

if I call you my friend and you do not call me your friend because we have differences, who is the most generous? I don't require an answer however, you can work it out!

Being revealed does not mean it is understood. I think the volume revealed available already fries minds. It is our privilege to discover what is already revealed. Quenching is done when when we overlay scripture with faulty ideas/conclusions and insist on them being right. With this dynamic...

one could spin off in all sorts of directions imagining what is not revealed. I think there is sufficient revealed to make us speechless without needing to wonder about what is not revealed.

The Myth of saying that Jesus Christ died for all men without exception ! Jesus absorbed humanity's anger. It was in his power to bounce it back on them...a window of this is seen when he asked the mob, 'who are you looking for? and 'I am he'. They fell down as Jesus projected his energy. He...
