of Himself.»

This is
going to be a shock — the
men who actually wrote all the parts in the Bible and made changes to the infrastructure
of Christianity — including Constantine circa 300 AD in Rome — were not afraid
of unleashing the occasional metaphor... in other words the Bible is not entirely literal — no, you are supposed to use your imagination... In many cases the disciples didn't actually witness an event — it was long distance and time altered hearsay — God figured
Man could handle that... So don't be afraid to dilute - God's cool with that — as long as you do the right thing in life — feed the poor, help your neighbor, don't kill or covet - just be a good and decent person - smile,
love and give generously... God doesn't need robots — He wants thoughtful individuals who help!!!
There is a saying: «if you

Its experience
of the extent to which human brutality can
go,
of the fury that can be unleashed when the human animal is attacked, its acceptance in wry cynicism
of the venality
of great and small; its acceptance, too,
of a psychological analysis that tends to show how slight the power
of reason, how great the strength
of obscure passions; how corrupting
of children the possible
love of mothers and the wrath
of fathers; its portrayal
of men and mankind in bitterly disillusioned novels and in shuddering chronicles
of man's inhumanity to
man — in all this the 20th century has perhaps
gone beyond anything that Edwards said in dispraise
of men, individually and in the collective.
Christians regard themselves as a Chosen People in the sense that to them has been entrusted the message
of God's grace to sinful (selfish)
man in Jesus, who was shown to be the Christ by his coming alive in the Christian community where, because the fear
of death is
gone, the rule
of love replaces that grasping for security which is the cause
of sin.
Even without the known meaning

love.
11:8 [Anchor Bible]-RRB- Yet God's

man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he has lost one

Tommy God has already forgiven you for your sin the moment you asked Jesus into your life and confessed him as Lord.From that point he paid for your sin in full past present future.It is not sin that stops us from being with the Lord so you are saved.The problem you are experiencing is the battle for your life in the here and now satan is out to destroy you and he knows our weaknesses.If you are honest there were already issues in your life that you struggled with and never got the victory over.So where do you
go from here as i found myself in the same situation i was a christian but walking according to the flesh.God does nt change his mind he always
loves us but because
of our choices we distance ourselves from God.The issue is that we like sin thats our wicked hearts and to be fair we cant change our nature only Christ can do that our old nature must be crucified with Christ.The stumbling block is our pride we have to admit that we cant do it For me that was terribly difficult i was so independent thinking i could do anything but the truth was a made a real mess
of things.I sense you are at a crossroads and are feeling desperate and confused.So as a brother in the Lord you need to confess your sin to God and tell him that you are weak -LCB- we all are -RCB- and that you cant do it in your strength -LCB- None
of us can -RCB- but ask him to send the holy spirit to help you deal with the temptations and the sin that you struggle with and he will help you to change your life he will empower you as he did me.Rather than look at who you are look to Christ and walk in him and he will make you a new
man and sin will not have dominion over you.Jesus came to set us free from bondage.Having once been a slave to sin i know what it is like to have been set free by the power
of God and that is what Christ is offering you today.All it takes is a desire to change or repent and admit we cant do it and trust him to give you the strength to walk in him regards brentnz
The sun rose like an irritated eye; wives cooked rice pancakes; children
went to play at tag in dusty fields or caught frogs by the banks
of the Euphrates; while the
men took to the brick kilns, potters» wheels, and plows; lovers arose to make

men at the gate weighed claims and vows.
i can feel
love for him throughout my heart and soul... i want to grow old with this
man... i am 47 and he is 45... he has never been married... he said there is not a chance
of getting back together again regardless
of how we feel towards each other because we committed adultery and God will never forgive us and it will be wrong to do so... so am i supposed to
go on living my life being so deeply in
love with this
man i can never have... why would God put him in my life to make me feel so spiritually happy, so wonderful, so at peace with myself and someone I can finally worship Him with just to take him away from me... I've never been with someone who was so religious and i thought this was it... i finally have someone to read the bible with and
go to church with and put God first and share things with my self and my daughter as a
loving relationship would be....
Even without that we know what a lot
of Roman
men did with their younger male slaves and its obvious a slave owner isn't
going to be so distraught in saving a piece
of property he could easily replace unless he was in

I find that trying to live a life
of peace and
love of your fellow

go to a building with others to outwardly profess that faith is secondary.

Our description so far
of these aspects
of God's work in the world is all prologue to the claim now to be stated which
goes beyond what either liberalism or neo-orthodoxy have clearly affirmed, God does transform rebellious and self - sufficient
men into persons who can begin to
love their fellows.
Ignoring rape damages
men as well, not just because
men also get raped (though
of course they do) but because women who are raped are someone's daughter, sister, wife or friend, and their pain is
going to hurt the people who
love them too.
We may pause to ponder, that while these royal morons disported themselves in beastly passion in Antioch and Alexandria, a petty hill town
of their domains, age - old Jerusalem, followed its Temple services that
went their quiet way, day after day, year in and year out; and there, groups
of thoughtful
men reflected upon the nature
of human life, reasoning that «The fear
of the Lord is the beginning
of wisdom,» that «The law
of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul,» or fervently ejaculated, «Oh, how I
love thy law!
Now, if a
man decides he is
going to start killing people and moves forward with that thought and commits murder after murder - is it not the duty
of a just and

man?
I don't mind reason # 1, but it's reason # 2 that I continuously ask myself, why bother preaching Jesus to them, why do I even bother showering the

love that He is capable

Jeremy have been asking the holy spirit for his help with this and 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 or did he sin the answer was neither but so that God would be glorified.What was the sin that may have been 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 in adultery and the lame
man here we see a picture
of our hearts on the one our
love for sin and on the other the desire to work out our salvation on our terms they are the two areas we have to submit to God.My experience was the self righteousness was the harder to deal with because it is linked in to our feelings
of self worth and self confidence so we have to be broken so we are humble enough to realise that without God we can do nothing our flesh hates that so it is a struggle at first to change our way
of thinking.brentnz

But Faust is a sympathetic nature, he
loves existence, his soul is acquainted with no envy, he perceives that he is unable to check the raging he is well able to arouse, he desires no Herostratic honor — he keeps silent, he hides the doubt in his soul more carefully than the girl who hides under her heart the fruit
of a sinful
love, he endeavors as well as he can to walk in step with other
men, but what
goes on within him he consumes within himself, and thus he offers himself a sacrifice for the universal.
I lean towards the third view... but I admit it is the most difficult
of the three views... Christ's priorities appear to be «
love in motion» flowing in almost unpredictable directions as dictated by the greatest need: — He heals a slave rather than rebukes slavery; — He heals a
man at a pool, then leads the
man to belief, then says «cease from sinning»; — He heals many others and says «
go and sin no more» to but a few; — He shares money with the poor but establishes no long - term aid; — He touches lepers; He converses with seeking Pharisees; He debates with other Pharisees; He lives with Samaritan outcasts for two days; — He acknowledges the five «marriages»
of the Samaritan woman as «marriages»... and then remarks about her current co-habitation... but then moves to higher priorities; — He seems so very focused on internal holiness and not on external holiness; — He violates the Sabbath; He says He is Lord
of the Sabbath; He even says that the Sabbath was created to assist
man, rather than
man created to serve the Sabbath... thus turning the entire concept
of the Law into one
of assistance rather than being chained to obedience; — He insists on impartiality in the way we bless others, even if we call them «evil» or «good».
One who has been caught up into the divine
Love becomes, through his praying, a participant in the on -
going movement
of that
Love in the world; he becomes a lover — and that is what
man is being made for, what he is to become as under God his personality is integrated and energized and directed.
A young
man may coerce a girl to
go through the motions
of lovemaking: what he can not do is to force the girl really to
love him, responding to him as a free human person and participating gladly in the enterprise we call lovemaking.
And a fifth reason is that the portrayal
of «the last things» in these terms, indeed the emphasis on some destiny for
man out
of this world which makes what
goes on in this world merely preparatory for heaven or a way
of avoiding hell, is thought by a great many people to entail a neglect
of their duty here and now to live in Christian
love and to find in that their deepest satisfaction, whatever may await them when this life is ended.

Thus when we have admitted all that we must admit concerning
man's helplessness in his concrete situation, we must
go on to affirm all that we can affirm concerning
man's possibility
of perfection — which means, in this context, his potentiality for becoming completely («perfectly» or in full actualization) the

As time
goes buy the kind defenders
of free will over their rejection to «dead» here and colossians 2:13 tend to resort to a familiar defense, that
of labeling it a Calvinist viewpoint and that its almost a cultist view point to hold.Very sad yet very much the defense
of many christians.Dead may i suggest is dead, the inability to respond, does not mean that prior to being saved one could not read scripture but because
of this spiritual deadness its not profitabel / meaningful - we just can not continue to revise the meaning
of dead to fit a view point - because natural
man has not been born again this deadness (spiritually) shows itself as «none seek after God», in this condition they are» slaves to sin» and the spiritual things
of God (the bible) is «folly / foolishness» even the gospel is judged by natural
man as «folly / foolishness «(1 cor.1: 18) Please stop with this weak / common defense called Calvinism - many believers are truly turned off by such a defense.We must not forget the
man's «free will» is what took the whole human race down in the garden; i would hope we can rise above our
love affair with the human will.
Barth has always
loved to dangle the threatening figure
of Feuerbach before anyone interested in the self, modern

Even though one finds his life by losing it, by letting
go of his present self, and even though one can not realize his greater fulfilment by attempting to control the process
of creative mutuality for his own purposes or by concentrating his attention upon his forthcoming reward, surely the vision

love of man can not be conceived normatively in terms
of extinction.

of your house but you would leave your trash outside
of your house... same thing with women especially and by the way this apply to
men as well in Islam... A woman actually is the queen
of her household, and when they are so aware
of their status within her community, as more like a mother, she is committed to her husband, kids and parents exclusively... she is busy taking care
of her
loved ones and enjoys it and happy so why you ask her to show you her cleavage if she doesn't think you deserve her... Muslim women are not any different than all women, they only like to wear the veil and not show their beauty to you... what?
