Jesus simply notes the rebellion against God, "violence." As for "the days of John the Baptist", Jesus notes the "type" or "sign" manifest in John, of God's servants or "messenger" "preparing" His way since the beginning.

The prayer is simple, as if to pray that all that must be finished, is finished. But indeed, men do pray to the contrary, prolonging the day.

Not "lacking" but rather [including] His body, the church.

Indeed. For those with the Holy Spirit, "To live is Christ."

The context is Paul passing the baton to (teaching) Timothy. He has named Jesus as savior of all, because there is no other savior by whom men can be saved. But the purpose of God to salvation, is by design, specifically to the believer, meaning to those who believe their report.

My comment comes from the fact that Trump fights for, rather than against making America great. But also because I have met him and talked with him and he is not what the enemies in the media make him out to be. That is not my opinion, but my witness.

Are you purposing that the "valley of decision" is not for the "multitudes", that Jesus does not "stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears His voice and opens the door, He will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Him?" Because the authority that you accredit the church elders...

Workers for the harvest are for the spreading of the good news of the coming of Christ, that He is come in the flesh; but One is intercessor.

The way that character in leadership works with God (since it is He who raises up leaders), is if the people repent and cry out, He hears them and answers them. Likewise, if the people demand folly, He gives it to them. In the case of Trump, God has heard the cry of the people and raised up a...

No, this is me writing your name on the ground.

Your emotions and politics have blinded you. He may just be the most un-"self-serving" billionaire in US history. He didn't need anything, but what he wanted was to "Make America Great Again." But that's funny--you critiquing him. Very funny!

Luke 11:23 "He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters." Your emotion and logic fail you.

Well if all you go on is what you hear, and what a person's enemies say...how can you even purpose to judge a person's character? Such a way of placing judgement is not a good sign of character itself. And if a person won an election based on their ability to be a hard nosed fighter to do a...

Correct!

That would depend on how you mean "qualifier." If you mean as sentence structure, making "the spirit" a grammatical qualification of "the flesh." Then, No. Grammatically they are opposites...which is the point of the statement. If you mean as "the spirit" being the way "the flesh" obtains...

The phrase "son of man" is a reference to Adam and the fall, i.e., a son of the first Adam, a son of the fall, a son of sin against God. In the case of Christ: a son of sin, who knew no sin, thereby prevailing against sin and death.

I simply used the term "qualifying point" to explain that it is part of the "statement" being made, and must be included and understood: "every word that proceeds from the mouth of God."

No conflict. The mystery is revealed in marriage: "The two become one flesh", just as it was in the beginning. But you also referred to: Again, this is revealed in marriage, wherein it is explained that Christ is the Bridegroom, making a union between God and mankind, a union that was broken...

The two do not contradict. In Psalm 146:3 there is a qualifying point "in whom there is no help." Thus, the statement indicates that there is a son of man in whom there is no help, but also that there is a son of man in whom there is help. As for John 3:14, this is Moses in prophetic utterance...

All scripture can be and must be reconciled with all scripture. Any one-sided use of scripture for correction is not correction, but evidence of a complete misunderstanding. But the one-sided use of scripture to show error, is true correction and is evidence of understanding. And one who meets...
