"And he is before all things, and by him all things consist" Col 1:17

It is not necessary to pass your 2000th birthday to be forgetful. Just wait until you are 77. Fortunately when I started having serious lapses in this or that, my wife still had an excellent memory. Now as she is also moving in that direction, we just agree on what we do remember and forget...

Is that all good or bad or a mixture thereof in your opinion, of course? But yeah I know I'm an old man. From the day of my marriage my wife has continuously reminded me of the 7 year difference in our ages. My mother told me I had really robbed the cradle...

Having memory problems already, are we? LOL Thanks for the compliment. My wife hasn't complained [much] yet!!! LOL

Do you suppose correct knowledge on this point is a salvation issue? Will people have to pass a theological test which determines their final destination? Are we not to live by love/charity and faith rather than knowledge...?

Carry on sister! Glad some people are as slow on the uptake as I am...

Wow, someone retired longer than me. I retired in the year 2,000...

I am not denying anything! What should I confirm about tomorrow? "Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof." Matt 6:34 "This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad...

Well if we are stepping by faith in God right up to the end of our course, we certainly be with Him, but I am careful about describing it too closely. What do I know?

Home made bread is always good unless baked by me or some other incompetent. If I give you my address will you send me one of your wife's loaves of bread? I don't discriminate!

Perhaps, but where [if 'where' is even the right question?] then are they? Should we presume that all of the conclusions of men and their sciences are correct? Even according to science which way is up and which way is down? Up is toward God and Light while down is toward death and darkness...

@Dcopymope I do appreciate your effort to explain these things to me. I really do not pretend to understand all of the details and the backgrounds involved. I too grew up with a whole lot presumed 'truths'. I learned things from my own family as well as in schools which when I really came to...

There is always too much of "me, myself and I" on all of the forums where I have been and this one is certainly no exception. People might say that I am pointing at others... and I am, but I do not exclude myself from that group at which I point my finger. I keep on trying to improve that and...

You realize that I am not trying to make that case. I have not been even a nominal trinitarian since I left formal Catholicism more than 40 years ago. The only 'case' I hope to make is the one that God appoints me to make...

@My Dreams Praying!

Forum information on his profile still shows he was last seen here on 01-19-2021.

Has no one heard from @farouk ? From posting all over the place to nothing! Continue to pray for him and please post here if anyone knows he is OK or that something is hindering him!

Also praying!

No I am not arguing a point that ultimately in most, or maybe even in all cases, will make no difference in the direction that a person walks or in the final conclusion for him. Who wins the final argument? God does! Who is going to be with Him at the end of their road? The road we take leads up...

People do mix up... the stories they heard in childhood or read in fairy tales or saw in the movies or heard from even from ministers... with a little dab of what is written in scripture or even less than a little dab! The final result should be...? Hmmm?
