What verse of scripture did I claim that to be? :)
Your context was simple enough and both you and I know exactly what you were trying to say and what verse you were comparing it too....so...crawfish all you want.....your inability to admit your own error will be your undoing!

God does not change. Who he is does not change. His love for us does not change.

That is the absolute truth upon which I rest my life!

Amen and the only ONE who can be consistently called the same....yesterday, today, tomorrow and forever! I am the Lord thy God, I change NOT!

Honestly can't understand where people come up with of the stuff they do.

Theism............................................ ......................................Panentheism
God is unchanging........................................ .........................God is changing

Scripture clearly says:

Hebrews 13:8 - Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

Malachi 3:6 - For I [am] the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.

Revelation 1:8 - I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.

James 1:17 - Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

Are you suggesting that truth is situationally contingent?
I'm not suggesting that Jesus is not.. "the way the truth and the life"...if that is what you mean. I am not suggesting that truth changes or that God does not determine what is true. Other than that, I am not sure how to answer your question. Maybe I'll think on it for awhile.

Large and small...black and white....hot and cold......far and near....loud and soft...clean and dirty are all true. But so are the things in between depending on the circumstance. Agree or disagree?
Are there varying degrees of truth? Where is the line drawn? Truth that is a half truth is no longer truth . . .

Rofl! You always say I'm out of context, and spiritualizing scriptures, but now all of a sudden when I speak my own words you claim to know the "context" of what my own words were saying? LOL And now you know exactly what I was trying to say, when you never understood what I said before? LOL!

Again what verse did I quote? I did not quote a verse, that was my own words. Did I misrepresent my own words? Did I not know what I was saying? LOL!

You copy paste a comment from another thread, and bring it here in order to misrepresent my own words, just out of spite and hatred? Who does stuff like that? Hateful people, that's who. Nice try, but no cigar. :)

Black and white thinking is like someone thinking that if they don't get an A on a test, they have failed the test. The point is that there are shades of grey in certain circumstance. Gods truth is absolute and unchanging, but some people confuse that with other areas of life where there are grey areas. It's also called all or nothing or dichotomous thinking and it can look like perfectionism in a "believer".

What is with the smiley faces at the end of everything you write.... its rather sarcastic and annoying.
I like it....seems a little more pleasant. You have to practice something to get good at it....right? :)

I like to smile. :) Hateful people are annoying to me. :)
You are an instigator. You are provoking and a trouble maker. I don't know you very well although from the things you post you seem very disrespectful towards your fellow brothers and sisters mocking them. That is not the way you should treat your brothers.

Actually there was no hate whatsoever at all....just your statement about absolute truth which you contradicted when you tried to apply your words to the bible and compare yourself to Paul becoming all things to all people that he might win some...dude your not fooling anyone..as a matter of fact you would probably crap a brick if you knew how many people discuss your twist of truth and rejection of scripture on a regular basis and how you think you are all that when it comes to the truth.....nothing more than a joke in the grand scheme of things...really!

Hasidic Judaism merges the elite ideal of nullification to paradoxical transcendent Divine Panentheism, through intellectual articulation of inner dimensions of Kabbalah, with the populist emphasis on the panentheistic Divine immanence in everything and deeds of kindness.
ENGLISH!!! SPEAK ENGLISH!!!! :)

Just like mining for gold right ISIS? There is always a nugget of truth that can be extracted if a person has the emotional intelligence to view criticism as positive feedback.......right?
