I take that back. I have not met a single person who has been able to do that, Christian or otherwise. There may be some out there (Corrie Ten Boom?) but they are a rare breed.

Luk 6:27 “But I say to you who hear, Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, Luk 6:28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you.Sounds good, but is it realistic? I've rarely met a Christian who is able to follow this.

So if you are saying that the same application is valid symbolically, of a yoke on an oxen to transfer the energy of the animal, how does this have anything to do with the yoke that Jesus offers in your lack of ability to actually do any of the works he did, much less greater ones?
Towshab replied to the topic The Nature of Faith in the forum Faith 16 years, 10 months ago
Do you know what a yoke is, outside of this verse?

Sorry, but as you and kejonn have pointed out there is no stipulation of believing in Jesus, just that one must have faith. Thanks to both of you. However there is plenty of action going on in the other forums so I will leave you to this section.

Well since no such ruling is in place, I will sneak in a post. Ken, why does it matter to you what Mandy believes? You can pray for her and encourage her, but I don't sense you would do that. Instead I see a man who wants to push someone in a corner and also a man who is like a little child, testing the patience of superiors. Every post you have…[Read more]

Hey Nick,You might want to buff the scratches out of your CD, it keeps skipping and repeating itself.
Towshab replied to the topic Question for Towshab in the forum Bible Texts & Translations 16 years, 10 months ago
That's not foreshadowing, that's taking and applying passages out of context. The GT is rife with such.

I assume you are not in that remnant, Nick? Because you've never told us which works you have done that are equal or greater than those that Jesus did.

Which one is the truth of John 14:12, (a) Jesus lied or (b) nobody truly believes in him?
