AllTheGoodNamesAreTaken

I trust in God and His wisdom as far as prayers are concerned. If I second-guess an outcome then my faith is really what is in question and not God.

...and I have embarrassed myself again Jeff. I apologize sis. Wow, I'm an idiot.

LOL, correct as always brother but not technical at all, just scriptural !

other one asks: "where do angels come from?" Yes, angels are " extraterrestrial ". Do you believe then that angels are saints , and had earthly tombs that were opened and they rose from ?

I doubt there were any extraterrestrials involved, as this is the Word of God. Anyway apart from the Prime-Time TV version, it happened. I don't know how many or who, but it did happen.

So why are we discussing them ? Yucky stuff bro !

Some may have you to believe that if you love your Father, Mother, or siblings, children, or wife ( husbands, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc. are in this context apparently okay ) that you are not a Christian. I would ask them by what Spirit do they teach this ? Was not His NEW commandment to " Love one another, as I have loved you " ? He laid down His life, suffered on the cross for sins He did not commit. He did this out of obedience and love. I think the key word here is " more ". Can I place my faith or hope for salvation in any of these folks ? No ! Can I place my faith or hope for salvation in any of you ? No ! Should you place your faith and hope in me ? Absolutely not ! ( sorry, done editing now. have a 3 month-old baby to take care of, and at my age, it's a challenge ! LOL )

Aha ! Exactly.

I wonder how many of us have actually been able to accomplish the Scripture highlighted in bold ?

Ah well. We'll just have to muddle through it bro.

Genies ? I'm no genie. You can rub all the lamps you want and I won't pop out.

I suggest the parable of the sower and parable of the weeds.

After 50+ years, I'm still working on one passage. John 13: 34-35

Yes, amen MG. I was completely ignorant of this until our brethren pointed it out to me. It's appalling.

Amen !

It would do me no good, as I cannot keep ALL the Law, therefore I am subject to the consequence. Good News for me ! God provided me a way through my Lord and savior who is Christ Jesus! He was the final sacrifice for my sins and yours. They have been atoned for. We are forgiven ! Rejoice in His name !

I will say, that I am personally amazed that pork is a great challenge that some face in this life. I can live with or without it. " Love one another, as I have loved you " seems a bit more daunting. Still, I don't want to discredit the OP's question. Just how I believe SINNERSAVED. I would expand upon the rest of the Mosaic Law that no person has kept in perfection, and those who put their faith in their own ability to do so are subject to God's wrath, but this was a specific question so I'll save that for another time. God bless you !

You tell me brother. Did His chosen disciples ever go against His wishes ? ( I think we both know the answer to that ) . I figure you were not asking me, but that brother from Toronto Not sure who does or does not read my comments, but I keep on keeping on either way !

Well, I cannot follow all of the Mosaic law, so I have to put my faith and hope in mercy and grace.

Okay, I'll ask. Have they repented ?

Apparently I am on a few " ignore " lists. William ( if this actually shows ), some cows are fed other cows, but don't let that stop you from eating that steak, LOL ! Still, I think the direction of the topic is what is, and what is not allowable by God for His own to eat. I could quote that it isn't what goes into a man's mouth that defiles him, but rather what comes out of it ( paraphrased ).

I don't know them, but do you think he may be trying to ( whether consciously or not ) push her into a decision that he is unwilling or unable to make himself ?

Wow. Sounds like a tough situation. I know of a few services that provide transportation for the disabled, but it is dependent on the area I guess. Are you still in the Tyler, Texas area ? BTW, I'll be praying for you !

What are your thoughts sis ? You are a good friend. I'll be praying.
