Ecclesiastes 31To everything there is a season,A time for every purpose under heaven:2 A time to be born,And a time to die;A time to plant,And a time to pluck what is planted;3 A time to kill,And a time to heal;A time to break down,And a time to build up;4 A time to weep,And a time to laugh;A time to mourn,And a time to dance;5 A time to cast away…[Read more]

I also wish to add that when Moses told the people, “an eye for an eye…” I believe that he didn't intend it to be a policy on foreign affairs but rather a very domestic issue among the people of Israel.When Jesus tells us to love our enemies, he is similarly speaking to individuals… person to person.  We have some level of control over our…[Read more]

Hi David,(Sorry, I can't get the quotes right.  This refers to your last response to me on the preceding page).1.  Jesus says whoever does the Father's will is his mother, brother or sister… I find greater meaning in that definition first of all as I find that natural ties has its limitations.  Such that are in Christ would likely not lift th…[Read more]

Love does win the day, Kenrch, in one way or another. Helps keep the blood pressure down too! Great stories!

Quote (seekingtruth @ April 27 2006,10:02)From what I understand the commandment should have been translated “thou shalt do no murders” not “thou shalt not kill” (somebody who knows how to translate let me know if this is wrong). For my part if called to war to defend my country I would go but as a medic, chaplin, or other position that would…[Read more]

About half a day perhaps a little longer. This was after I read your post. I did not log on prior.

That was terrible guys! Couldn't help thinking of corrolations in the word of God… Nick, one of your favorites…: the parable of the ten virgins and the bridegroom. Those without oil in their lamps compared to those prepared with oil. Those who were logged on vs. those that weren't and couldn't get in! Oh what a nightmare! May the Lord…[Read more]

Certainly in his will, Ken. Sounds good! But I do also believe that in order for us to be one, we have to have the mind of Christ… and that takes us right back to square one, the first and greatest commandment. So our prayer should also include that we grow in the knowledge of the Father.

Quote (t8 @ April 18 2006,11:27)It seems to me that God turns a blind eye at times as he prepares us. But once he prepares us, he expects more from us. During this time, I believe that God is saying that we remain humble and to not seek any self glory. For the glory of YHWH will be the only glory and we who serve him must reflect his glory. This…[Read more]
