There are some things we do not understand completely about his plan of salvation, happiness, We do not comprehend why or wherfore at the moment of hardship and extreme pain, but as time gos on we do become aware of the reasons and the blessings that come from therofe from the pain and sufferings. To be able to understand even partially we must have complete faith, understanding of the eternal nature of our excistance; and the blessings of not only this world; but the world yet to come.

I'm like that too. I can't speed read the bible.......I get nothing out of it. Not saying anything against the challenge........I'm just a slow reader. Im not only a slow reader, but a slow "comprehender" as well! a lot of times the Holy bible actually is getting to mean something that is not obvious immediately on first impresin.

I seem to be more succesful of learning stuff from it when i read the bible as referrance for research on differant heavenly issues as used in debate, rather than reading it all in its entirety and sometimes overlooking many important and heavenly messages because of reading too fast.

Our children have been under attack for many years now, buti the advesary is getting much more forcefull as his time is knowingly running out.

The woods it should then be. the lord does not charge money to share the spirit with us, when truely asking for guidance and help from him, he "will" answer. get on your knees and sincerly and truely ask of him for help and guidance to spiritual truths of peace,love,undersatanding of his love for us all and he will let you know. you shouldnt need to travel anywhere to find his peace and comfort, he is there always, right beside you, all you need to do is ask him.

And i can only let you and anybody whom may care, that when we dont simply"straddle" the fence, but actually jump over it completely, then stay on that side, the spiritual truths do come forth, we do receive many and wonderfull blessings both temporal and heavenly. sure its hard, but the more we get confirmations of truths the easier it gets to understand and therefore easier to do all we can and should be doing. After a certain rung of the ladder, things really do begin to turn favorably.

Two words come to my mind..."Latter Days."

And that should include the white house as well.

Hey its all a scam, these two people are going to become rich over this!

And lets think about the issue of all these politicians whom claim they only want to "serve" the country, by getting paid well over a hundred thousand dollars a year plus,plus,plus! If these politicians are only doing there job in order to "serve" the country, then they should be willing to get paid minimum wage, is that not right? I mean they refuse to raise the wage for the rest of us, then maybe they should "serve" for the same pay.

actually the bible does speak of cave dwellers, {and i cant remember excatly which book and verse} but if you would like i can refferance it, it says something to the effect of, "how are our ancesters {without us} going to attain salvation, those whom wandered about in mountains and caves, wearing sheepskins."

I could only suppose that the lord is trying very hard to get your attention?

Well the Lord taught you not to judge; and have forgivness in your heart for those whom do.

A Question from my 11yr old son
jadams_4040 replied to sotphmfm's topic in Have a problem? Looking for advice?
you allready know the answer to that one. sometimes its very,very difficult to keep quiet, but at times its the best thing we could possibly teach a young person in the midst of the turmoil. {you can be the excample, and thats what he needs more than anything else in the world right now, is stability,love and common sense}. -
Well my K.J.V bible states it this way, "study" to shew thyself approved unto God , a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. In other words. When we "know" excatly what we are talking about by being worthy of sharing the "truth". By having the holy spirit direct each and every thing we say at all times because we should be keeping ourselves worthy; and that is how we invite the spirit into our daily companionship. It is the "spirit" that does the speaking when we are a true and "worthy" disciple.

A Question from my 11yr old son
jadams_4040 replied to sotphmfm's topic in Have a problem? Looking for advice?
Depends on what is being "talked" about? every situation is differant and unigue. its probably for the most part not good to get the kids involved in the bad thigs pertaining to divorce, but i beleive both parents need to be honest and 'TRUTHFULL" to the kids about everything. -
Very well put! just reminds us all that because our sins were forgiven does not mean we are off the hook to not do good at all times with the saviour in our hearts.

Why is this never discussed by Bible expositors?
jadams_4040 replied to Ddavid from NC's topic in General Discussion
The veil of the temple being rent and the saints that slept arose, means that Jesus was crucified for our sins and then ressurected for us all and now we too can attain "eternal" life, and thats what the veil being rent means, because we all can now pass thru the veil into eternal excistance because of his sacrifice and ressurection, It was all for us. -
Is there ever a time when repentance is not possible?
jadams_4040 replied to Ddavid from NC's topic in Theology
I beleive repentance is always possible but to be justified of a sin against another person as in rape or murder is whats impossible. to be justified of rapeing someone, how do you justify the persons respect and dignity back to them? or how do you justify someones life that you have taken? the lord will firgive whom he will, but he will not justify someone for a sin or crime that cannot be justified, I;E in order for justice to be fulfilled, one must be able to restore the life you took or restore the dignity of the persom you raped. these things are impossible to do in order to claim justfication. -
i dont think when taking the entire book of Job into account, he was being refferd to as perfect because of actually being perfect? When it says he was perfect it was obviously meant to mean he had all that anyman could possibly have. And jobs story gos on to tell how then satan entered into his life and made things not so good, {with Gods permission} and this entire thing was done in order to teach us all great and important things about the kingdom.

And all the rest of those dishonest individuals in the congress do not do this stuff?

I really think most creationists are christian as well as you and i are? They have led a life of doing a job and probably getting paid for it. they have been taught there entire lives about evolution as creating the earth as we now have it. So therefore they do not think about the I.D part of things. and this derives mostly because evolution is true and evolution was created by the lord as well as everything else was created from dust. He also made evolution to have the things he created be able to adapt to changing enviornmemts and such as his great naster plan of the creation is being brought to fruitation still today as we speak. but it is a much wrong analogy to slap a label on evoltutionists that they are not Christian this is simply just not true. Evolution and intelligent design go hand in hand! the lord made it that way.

But as i stated, does this not invalidate the lords direction on one faith, one baptism,one God? I to beleive what you say but i also beleive the lord told us that we need to be in unity together in one beleife of doctrine.

As a child, I used to think exactly the same and I wouldn't call it Good Friday! I really dont think thats why they called it "good" friday, i would rather beleive that "good" friday was simply some type of refferal. And if it was called good friday because of his atonment. then they shoud have called it "good" sunday because thats the day he was ressurected and gave us all the ability to attain eternal life in the ressurection as well, Now thats what i call Good!
