@JellyJam Might you not draw the very same conclusions about the people of God at the time Jesus walked planet Earth as a man about 2000 years ago? How have things changed in or for people today as compared to then?

"Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths." Prov 3:5-6

Revelation is to the individual. God will reveal to any person that which is required if such person has a heart open to Him and seeking as per... "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Matt 6:33 We should not be deciding...

Did he? OK Was it really? Jesus certainly died on the cross and spilled all of his carnal red blood there, but the pouring out as per Joel 2:28 was first done on that day of Pentecost as per Acts 2. It was the Holy Spirit that was poured out and unlike the blood of the animals sacrificed as...

"And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children." Matt 14:21

I know of no flaws outside of the hearts of men...

What if the Blood of the Body of Christ is the Holy Spirit? Is it not the Holy Spirit that connects us to one another and to the Head which is Jesus? When the work is completed and all is connected and properly subjected, where will loneliness be?

There is that for spiritually or actually, versus what man calls reality, we all, both men and women according to the flesh should strive to be a part of the Bride with Jesus as the fully prepared Bridegroom. Is the Bride ready to take her place beside Him?

I would guess that you don't but is it serving you a good purpose? Our freedom comes when they shovel the dirt over our faces at the end of our course. Whether or not we will recognize it after that final event is quite another question.

To me it is relevant! You don't see the connection to your question... even if you disagree with the conclusion?

That verse relates directly to this one in the OT: "Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of Israel." Psalm 78:41 How can people limit almighty God? By using the authority given to them by God to block Him. What authority have men been given? "And God said, Let us...

I see the same things and have concerned myself much about it before, but some time ago God reminded me of what Jesus said here: "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." Matt 5:6 If someone is really properly hungry and thirsty God is the one...

That is it in a nutshell but as you know some people are more complicated in their views or beliefs. Not a bad place to be at the moment but then someone will likely come along trying to disturb your peace with things which ultimately probably matter very little if at all.

One reason might be that few if any are competing for such a place, high or low. Fire and brimstone preaching was once a popular method, but it would seem that some have moved a considerable way in the other direction. Should we not strive for the best that God has to give if we are going to...

And remember also what Paul wrote here: "If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable." I Cor 15:19 Hope is what some people do have in this material world, but what is the maximum duration of that hope if it is indeed a worthwhile hope? Do we expect 70 years...

Yes, and perhaps it would have been better to say they would not matter to those who have the Life which Jesus brought. Do different levels of Life matter? Consider the three levels of saved creatures in the ark of gopher wood Noah built...

While you may be correct, the scriptures do not clearly state that Jesus had any clothes at all while hanging on the cross. The only clothing mentioned went to the soldiers.

Oh yes, my Lord is with me even in my tired old flesh. Give God the glory!

Jesus came to bring Hope to the hopeless. Who was hopeless? Who is hopeless? What is our hope? All of the children are hopeless without the Life which He brought...

Take first this with regard only to what you may recall from your secular schooling in science. Darkness is the absence of light. A windowless closet without a connected light bulb or a flashlight or a candle is black darkness. Light itself is something measurable. When no light is present we...
