in regards to the lame man that Jesus healed I do nt believe that sin was the issue for him just like the blind man was it his parents

worse for him.The two situations are related of the woman caught
in adultery the key words being go and sin no more only two references
in the bible and will explain later the lame man we see at first his dependency on everyone else for his needs he cant do it he is
in the
best position to receive Gods grace but what does he do with it.Does he follow Jesus no we are told he goes to the temple and Jesus finds him now that he has his strength to do
things on his own what his response to follow the way of the pharisees that is what is
worse than his condition before so he is warned by go and sin no more.We get confused because we see the word sin but the giver of is speaking to him to go another way means death.Getting back to the two situations of the woman caught

Gil you have asked some very
good questions why does
bad things happen
in the world i personally do nt know God did nt explain to Job either why he had to suffer.What i do know is that God desires that none of us should perish but that all would have eternal life
in him through Jesus Christ.This world will one day pass away and the real world will be reborn so our focus as christians is on whats to come and being a witness
in the here and now.Both
good and
bad happens to either the righteous
or the sinner so what are we to make of that.What we do know is that God will set all
things right at the appointed time the wicked will be judged and the righteous will be rewarded for there faith isnt that enough reason for us to believe.Free will is only a reality if we can choose between
good and
bad but our hearts are deceitfully wicked we naturally are inclined toward sin that is another reason whyt we need to be saved from ourselves so what are we to do.For me Christ died and rose again that is a fact witnessed by over 500 people that were alive at the time and was recorded by historians how many other religious leaders do you know that did that
or did the miracles that Jesus did.As far as the bible is concerned much of the archelogical evidence has proven to be correct and many of prophetic words spoken many hundreds of years ago have come to pass including both the birth and the death of Jesus.Interested
in what philosophy you are believing
in if other than a faith
in Jesus Christ so how does that philosophy give you the assurance that you are saved.Its really simple with christianity we just have to believe
in Jesus Christ.brentnz
