My condolences for your loss. I have you in prayer now.

"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." John 15:13 "No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father." John 10:18

"A man that hath friends must show himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother." Prov 18:24

The punishment was death, not unending death! His dying did Not save us. Rather it opened the Door so that we could be saved. Not everyone wants to walk through the open Door. Many never do!

If you believe there is no hope, why are you even here to talk about it?

Sorry to be so longwinded about it. I was trying to help... You apparently understand why Jesus died but do not understand why he lived again after his death. Is this correct?

"Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father." John 10:17-18

Dear sister, Nancy! When I backslid for 10 years the primary problem with me was pride. Before my fall in the early 1990's, I studied my Bible long and hard... presuming that I could learn it all well enough to become like Enoch and be translated even before my old flesh died. Of course it was a...

I did not have the kind of talent to ever become a concert pianist, but I could have done better than I did. My mother was disappointed. My older brother quit taking lessons before I did, but neither one of us ever used what she had at times sacrificed to give us... the piano lessons. They...

Consider this event during the time Jesus dwelt among us as a man: "And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: Because that he had been...

People are selfish... including probably many or most believers. They consider my inheritance, my salvation and my unending life and my blessings first... Wrong priorities! "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness..." If we do this God may indeed reward us but anyone seek to...

I will be watching for it.

And would this not also be, in part at least, how the Body of Christ grows?

"Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of...

Praying for you now!

Have you ever discussed this with someone living in China?

I rarely skip my morning coffee, but breakfast usually is reserved for when my wife fixes us breakfast for dinner later in the day. She knows I enjoy such a breakfast and so fixes that now and again rather than the multitude of other possibilities.

Hi Helen! I wish at times for the old days when I was able to go out and do things. I also wish for the old days when Mike had one of his Internet forums and a bunch of us would participate online without much resistance or serious conflicts other than with Mike himself. I enjoyed Mike and liked...

When I was young I took piano lessons for many years from a former professional opera singer. She broke her voice on the job, but fell back on her music teaching a multitudes of children on a full time basis for income. I remember her well and her husband was an old barber who was by far the...

We need only give God the glory for people like this who simply take both of those two greatest commandments described by Jesus as part of themselves... rather than just striving to love. She was really esteeming others better than herself... That is beyond striving!
