    An opinion, is not a legal object (what is?)

    Hi there, So there is a simple distinction to make - which I want to explore here, because I want to go beyond the limits of the stated subject - between a legal and a non-legal object: there is opinion, and there is law. An opinion is not a legal object, but may influence the Law; a law is a...

    Not requiring confession and just offering luck as an alternative, men of the world will just choose 'luck' and not confess. Meaning?

    Hi there, So this is a thorny problem for me. I have known for some time that Ray Comfort preaches that the sinner needs to be convicted of the Law, before they are offered Salvation. That approach seemed fine to me, for some time, but I never really felt great about approaching people about...

    Hi there! So I have been growing in faith, as I continue to commit to the good life, for God's sake and I have learnt to interpret the work of the Holy Spirit as strength, understanding and meaning (all of which I want to share). The lessons I have learned are very important, because they add...

    When the Devil doesn't know, which way you'll go: you become the first enemy (selah). Discuss.

    Hi there, So this is a simple bit of wisdom, that I just want to tease apart a little, and see what it means: The Lord struggled with this, always telling people not to talk about Him, asking His Disciples to wait for His resurrection before they told people about what they had seen (from...
