Thank you Christians for putting up with me. If I were one of the seven dwarfs, I would be Grumpy and Sleepy - lol. I just came to this first message of mine to delete what I had said - but a still small voice within said I should not be ashamed - that it might help someone else. I really don

This verse is one of my favorites too. The reason I started the thread is over the years it has had a very emotional impact on me. It means many things, I believe that each person who has commented on this thread has added to the meaning of what just these two words imply...Jesus Wept...and shook the foundations of the world, the universe trembled, and the heavens wondered at creations creator standing in that glade...weeping...It is too much to understand.

I have read hundreds of his sermons! Best of the best!

Good 2 cents.

Sorry to everyone for the last post...I'm just tired and crabby sometimes. :x:

"Which Bible is the best for a beginner?" The same Bible that is best for the ender. We are all babes in Christ if we are 2 or 102. If you are a new Christian then the question might be this. What should I read first in the Bible? Christians will say the whole Bible is good, and that is true. For a new Christian though I would lead them to the the following books: John Romans Luke Matthew Mark Acts Corinthians 1 and 2 Then a little of Psalms and Proverbs and Old and New Testament until you had read every last line. Then repeat (sort of like a shampoo label ) Of course many will disagree with the order but then no Christian will disagree that it is important to read, read, read.

Martha came to Jesus, and He instructed her and revealed Himself to her in a new way ("I am the resurrection and the life"). Mary came to Jesus, and He wept. Why? Martha needed ot hear those words from Jesus. She was more a leader and server, relating to the world through action and cognition. Mary needed for Jesus to cry with her. She was more a person of mercy, relating to the world through depths of feeling. I see Jesus ministered to these two women where they needed it and how they needed it. His tears were for Mary's comfort. I agree with everything you said as far as it goes, but I think the Lord had much more on his mind at the time. Just within the situation that was going on then you also had people saying why couldn't this man, not MAN, have come and healed him. Many still had no concept of who He really was even after all he had done. It would grieve him for the hardness of their hearts. This then would be a small picture of the entire human race, even of today, the struggle of who Jesus is continues.

Christians have come to know this verse as being the shortest verse in the Bible. I'm not even sure if that is a correct statement. Jesus wept. The context is that his friend Lazarus had died four days before and he came before the cave and everyone was sad. Many were saying if Jesus was so great why hadn't he come to heal this man before he died. John 11:33 When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping who came with her, he groaned in his spirit, and was troubled, Moments later Jesus wept. Why did He weep? I think this might be the shortest verse in the Bible but it is packed with great meaning and truth. Jesus knew that He was going to raise Lazarus from the dead. He in fact tarried so that he would not reach Lazarus in time to heal him. I think He may have been weeping for all of us at that moment. For all the anguish and suffering in the world, for the hardness of our hearts. It is hard to imagine that He could do it, but in that moment He perhaps thought of each one of us. Moments later he said the following: John 11:43 And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. I remember a preacher saying once that Christ specifically said Lazarus, because if he would have said something like just "come forth" everyone in the world would have been resurrected. He had the power to do so, but it was not the right time. Someday, maybe soon, it will be the right time. Did Jesus just weep for the people that were around him, because of the sadness in their hearts, because of the loss of Lazarus? Did he weep because of the loss of Lazarus? It does not make much since seeing as He knew the sorrow would turn into joy. Perhaps he was also weeping for Lazarus because He knew that Lazarus would have to come back to this world again, what might Lazarus have seen while away? Jesus wept. Just two words, but they have a profound impact. Our savior wept. Just the fact that he wept should show us of His love of His creation. I think the whole reason Jesus wept is far more complicated than I have just stated. Why do you think Jesus wept?

Jacqueline No one has seen the Father is referring to the third person of the trinity God the Father - but Jesus was seen by many. John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. Who knows what happened to you, but it comforted you. The Holy Spirit is a comfort to us - He is with us, who knows what He may have revealed to you. If it follows scripture then it is good. Think though what is more important to reveal to others, your vision, or your walk with the Lord. Your love for Him, the Good News. Unbelievers will not believe, it is better to show them through you walk, by your actions, by the Word of God, by your living testimony. I had a vision when I was around three or four. Two of my friends and I decided to float around on the front lawn levitating off the grass like Superman. We didn

"Holy Spirit, What is --?" This is a very disturbing question to me the way it is posted. I can take a lot of things but not calling I AM an "it". I know it was not done to offend, but it does me.

I guess it is the new crime for the 21st century. I suppose PayPal is having the same problems, but it is so easy to use. They will just have to come up with better security. My wife works in a grocery store and she says people walk out of the store with whole carts piled with food without paying. If they catch them they hardly ever do anything to them. So they just raise the price of doing business on ebay, and places like the grocery store and make the honest people pay more. Nice.

Wow, that is terrible! My wife got an email from ebay asking for some private information about our account because ebay said that someone had been attempting to get our information. Something like that. Looked real official, just like you would expect an ebay email to look. Before giving the information she let me look at it. I found a site on ebay and sent it to them. A few minutes later they got back with us and said the email was totally bogus. I was suspicious because the return address said ebay, but also something else was added to the address that did not look right. Lots of very bad people out there, that is for sure.

Well I have known my wife since the 3rd grade and she was a Tomboy until she was about 12...then she began to become a woman...she was a lady when we married 28 years ago...now in my opinion she is a beautiful Godly woman. So yes they certainly can!

Matthew 22:30 for in the rising again they do not marry, nor are they given in marriage, but are as messengers of God in heaven. I sort of think we will all be His children after we are raptured, but I don't doubt that we will know each other. He will take care of all of our needs just like children. Its funny now that I think of it, but when Jesus was talking about being as little children, maybe it has more than one meaning.
