The eating of herb wasn't the curse, but the strain and sweat required in obtaining even the herb of the field was. 

Keil and Delitzsch says to that point...

"The curse pronounced on man's account upon the soil created for him, consisted in the fact, that the earth no longer yielded spontaneously the fruits requisite for his maintenance, but the man was obliged to force out the necessaries of life by labour and strenuous exertion. The herb of the field is in contrast with the trees of the garden, and sorrow with the easy dressing of the garden."

At least you should consider that as a possibility.

Prayerfully considering this, thank you.

it is one thing to point out things went wrong and disagree strongly

it is against Christ teaching to resort to name calling

we are not even suppose to return insult with insult

 

I don't think there is a cogent point that was intended. It is all very choppy this strange disconnected dialog. Maybe that's a symptom that supports the topic? Would be fitting, the worlds gone mad. So has the thread discussing the world going mad? :P

Well. I just leave people be a long as they are not bothering me.  If my  Uncle George wants to wear a dress, so be it. Just how do you think we should treat people like this. Throw eggs at them? 

No, but we should not allow those living in such a way to remain comfortable in their sin.  We are called to salt and light.  And we are called to give the truth to people, not sit by as they continue head toward destruction.

"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."

Light exposes darkness. Some times what exposed can hurt. God is light. We should not conceal light revealed to us from God. There is a Christian way to be light.  Who would not hasten to enter a burning house, seeing children at the window?  How much greater, the burning fires of hell. I cannot stay friends with the world, and maintain  my relationship with God.  Won't work. The Lord tells us what is going to happen when we stand for His truth, why are we so surprised. It seems we would be sticking together, as brothers and sisters,  and not involved in petty squabbles. Like someone said earlier, what is it going to be like as the end draws near?

Note its never stated that the woman or boy is a christian. The important fact is the differing reactions

The world has been going mad for some time. I like what Dietrich Bonhoeffer once said in "The Cost of Discipleship." He said, "The world is taring itself apart, and if we Christians were removed, it would be utterly destroyed. We are a living grace to world, as long as we are here, the world goes on, but once we are removed its over for the world, its chances are over." Interesting thought.

Our world in increasingly becoming a very dark and scary and unsafe place. But what we are experiencing now is a walk in the park to what the tribulation is going to be.

The anger and hatred towards biblical Christianity is indeed increasing

and soon their will be all out real hard core persecution against all true believers who did not sell out to this interfaith relgion

and mindset that GOD is in all, that all find him, etc nonsense.  This huggin and kissing korans and buddas for world peace has got to GO.

But it is the RELIGOIN that will become mandatory. and it will lead the world to the man who will offer it the solution for world peace. ANTI CHRIST .

And what does Jesus say about all this madness and darkness you all speak of?  

I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”  John 16:33 (ESV)

To me it sounds as if Jesus is saying don't worry about it. The world is mine and my Father's to correct. 

Don't kill yourself trying to correct the world. If others do not hear the word, leave them to us. WE GOT THIS!!!! RELAX! Enjoy your peace in ME.
