Hello Fellow Sojourners, I've been thinking....the Gospel tells us we have been given an unspeakable gift. Wow, thats a pretty tall order to get ones head around. It is so magnificent it will take eternity to unpack. As the eons roll by we will ever find things to wonder about in God's...

I do see two seperate resurrections in scripture. One for all the righteous when Jesus returns at the second coming then a 1000 yrs later a resurrection of all the wicked. I don't see a resurrection where both righteous and wicked multitude are resurrected in the same event....however, I do...

Your last offering amadeus reminds me of the story of an anti aircraft gunner.... As the enemy planes came in thick and fast overhead and the Commanding Officer yelling out, 'fill the sky with flack gunner' the gunner went straight to it, rata tat tat, rata tat tat, rata tat tat firing his...

N.C.?? I had understood you point as being, because man has attempted to alter calendars both in ancient and in not so ancient times the ability to to decipher which the actual 7th day is has been lost and that any 7th day rotation would suffice. My point was that because God fearing Jews...

Peter is referring to those in Jesus; those who have in gratitude for their redemption embraced God's offering. The terms 'lively stones' is a metaphor for building materials where with a 'spiritual house' is constructed....in other words, God's Church (his people) are a 'structure' built by...

God declared his whole creation to be very good when it came from his hand. Adam's nature was in line with God himself; it was perfect in every aspect. Adam could communicate intelligently with the rest of Creation. He had abilities which future generations progressively lost.....they no longer...

It means he stood out from sinners in that he was flawless and so as a high priest (mediator) he was superior to his earthly counterparts (high priests) who was required to offer sacrifice for their own sins before offering sacrifice on behalf of the people. The Father had sworn by himself in...

The God fearing Jews were pedantic about the laws. I doubt that they would have forgotten/let slip the Commandment of the seventh day sabbath through the generations. If any laws were to be remembered it would have been this one. In all their wanderings and back sliding behaviours this one was...

The propensity of the fallen human nature to sin.

What's the problem?

Prayers are not a performance that compares with others.....and how do you know that the prayers of others are more effective? do you have inside knowledge of what God responds to? Prayer is putting your petitions before God both the requests of our needs, our growth, thankfulness for his...

Chin up icxn....those who recognise their failings and admit them......those who desire to have it better than it is.....will be given strength to endure.

Maybe you're not familiar with the content of the Lords prayer. '....forgive us our trespasses and we forgive those who trespass against us... The angle you're taking using logic at odds with what is revealed will only darken your understanding further. I have seen folk go down this track...

.....I suppose one could add a little humour by quoting Isaiah 53:3 talking about Jesus 'a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief....' and say he was a Sadducee.......hhhmmmmm, Sad u see. Some how I don't think that'd wash!

lol lol...this is funny!....not Quaker CL, quacker ....as in a duck going quack quack :)

my friend, what are you talking about here?....what you're saying doesn't add up.

lol...is it easier CL to package a person a label suggests?......Well my dear, you're gonna have to settle for an unlabelled quacker here.

my denomination?? These dates do not correspond to anything outlined in the scripture. I don't have any inclination to take notice of them irrespective of what is said they celebrate. It's like Sunday.....people can say it's the Lords day but it's not the day Jesus said he was Lord of. I find...

The five foolish virgins were told 'I don't know you'......cast out in other words.....although in their own estimation they thought they did know him evident by the reasons they gave him that the door should be opened for them. The next parable in the same chapter (Matt. 25) is that of the...

Just what Satan desires. He cares not what we assert or deny about him. His interest is how he can get a person to pay him allegiance without knowing to whom allegiance is being given. What you think you're stealing from Satan in honour of Jesus is not honouring Jesus at all......it's falling...
