    What does this mean? I could read the bible all on my own. Why did you post this parable? What does it mean to you?

    The Work of Faith: Hope of Salvation

    Jesus presented a different pix of everybody. Women had no respect in Jesus time --- more in the time of Moses, actually. Instead Jesus spoke to them. Just the fact that He SPOKE to the Samaritan woman means a lot. He wanted all to be a member of His Kingdom here on earth. Tax collectors...

    He has some good points. Maybe God is a little bit of everything. Have you reconciled his Sovereignty with our free will? Sometimes prayers ARE answered and the Word of Faith become correct. He HAS chosen some for specific works. So a little of Calvinism is correct.

    I also agree that God will not be put into a box. BUT, what do you think YOU know about God that we here don't? Honest question. Could you enlighten us?

    Are you saying the CC is the great harlot? I don't believe this. I believe they have some doctrine I can't agree with, but they also have many teachings I find nowhere else. I'll tell you a church I dislike: The Word of Faith churches. They do harm to Christians; making them expect things...

    Watched a good debate on YouTube. White and surgis (?) A Catholic. He was very good. Surgis I mean. It was on predestination but touched on other doctrine too.

    The above is not my answer to this. It's my coffee time. And I'm forgetting a lot. I'll answer this when I get back. If I can... Another reason it's good to be here. It helps me to remember things I used to teach, for goodness sakes!!!! :eek:

    The Samaritans were hated because they let themselves be affected by other religions. They inter-married during the conquests by the Babylonians and that other group, that doesn't come to mind right now. The Greeks. Anyway, yes, they became unpure. The Judaians also disliked the Galileans now...

    The Work of Faith: Hope of Salvation

    You know, not EVERY LITTLE IDEA is in the bible. It took theologians to figure some things out. Are you smarter than someone who studied theology, the study of God? WHO created you? Your mother and father? What went into that creation? When the first sperm got into that egg, all the other...

    Excellent observation. Or "catch", as they say these days.

    OK. I see what you mean. Spirit is of God. Religion is of man. Christianity is not a religion, it's a relationship. The relationship is with Jesus. Good. But I find it necessary to mingle with other Christians. That's why I'm writing here right now. Because I live in Italy and I love...

    Hmmm. Don't we all have SOME of those qualities? I guess I'd have to compare it with that other thingy that I also can't remember what it's called... interdependent??

    By household did you mean all of humanity? How far does this household of yours go?? I do have limits you know!

    Those two cover all the rest. So I could live with that. Jesus was more specific though. Even though no one really does do everything He said to do.
