But in the flesh was not the combination or joining of the two members, male and female, intended to make up a new and complete whole? Eve after all in the beginning came out of the male leaving that man him incomplete [lonely] while he remained without a proper help meet? "And he answered and...

What was Jesus physically wearing when he was dying on the cross? What reason have we to believe that he had any garment remaining more than what Adam and Eve had before they sewed together fig leaves for themselves. Adam and Eve were ashamed and tried to cover themselves. Jesus was allowed no...

I will say that the final answer on this will not come through the use of the scientific method nor through the use of logic as man defines them. Your statement is simple and using my own accepted definitions or understanding from God I could agree with you. In actuality we disagree because our...

You know that without regard to what I say as to where I received my answer someone is likely to disagree... but let us venture a bit... Presuming that evil is a thing rather than the absence of anything let us consider it. Could we simply quote a verse of scripture and that would be the end of...

I certainly agree with this... but don't take too far as how much of and how well do we understand the scriptures? Yes, for some perhaps good or not so good reasons, someone, early on in each denomination or Christian group, homed in on certain "pet" doctrines and now years later none or few...

If only all of our abuses could be eliminated as easily as that! We should consider the situation of even the very best of Jews who happened to live in Germany when Adolph Hitler came to power in the early 1930's. Was it easy to give it all up and start over in any place that would allow them to...

"Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:" Rom 9:6 Could we not easily replace the words, "Israel" and "Israel" with the words, "Christian" and "Christ"?

You don't really believe that my friend. Man's worst difficulty has always been himself. In spite of technological advances and medical knowledge man is still the same beast(s) he has always been. The only Way to kill that beast(s) is the Way you won' t admit because of the failures you have...

In 1976 I met man who one was like those "one who didn't, maybe two". Remember how Ghandi felt about Christians as opposed to how he felt about Christ. The latter he liked... Shall we toss Christ because of the errors and poor ways of "Christians"?

This would speak of all denominations and sects calling themselves Christian, would it not? But within each of these are there not likely to be some who really are moving closer to God? Remember the difference between King Saul and King David? Don't answer that, but rather simply think about it...

Herein is the problem of many Dave. They, and you I guess, believe they know who and what THE Church is. Like someone has said of Joyce Myer there are percentages of truth in her [90% versus 10%] as there are percentages in each of us who really has a measure of truth. Who but Jesus has it all...

:):D:rolleyes:o_O

You have moved closer in your words to what I believe perfection really is to God. Men get it wrong because they strive to approach what they [men] have defined perfection to be. Remember who our Director should be: "O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that...

Yes, again we are into the realm of delusion. One little sidestep and then without realizing it our whole walk with God is askew! The Love is the key rather than this doctrine or that one.

Is not the "perfection of behavior" that will be the ultimate result when we walk approved of and with God? This is again that impossible for man thing, but certainly possible for God.

But then as God led Solomon to write: "Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars: She hath killed her beasts; she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table." Prov 9:1-2 When all of our beasts are dead [if ever!?] then we will final and complete...

Oh but absolutely... not with regard to you but also and especially to me! People may pat me on the back when God is using me via the right hand, but then up pops my ego still in the running following or leading in or for the "left" hand of God. Back on my knees again. The good thing is that the...

God is still working on my heart my friend... but I sense you have built up a wall.

The people wanted to be like the rest of the people... that is God's people wanted to be like the heathens or gentiles around them. But... they did not want the curses of God which come along with walking in that direction... but it is part of the package.

I am sorry for her situation. I simply thought you were really interested in discussion. My error... Give God the glory!
