Isaiah 65:17 "For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former things shall not be remembered, nor come to mind. But be ye glad and rejoice forever in that which I create; for behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy. And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy...

Cologne, listen to me. You are just having a bad day. We all have those. Try to ignore the "accuser" who is accusing you. Then you will be an overcomer. Are you afraid your sins are so great that God will never forgive you? If so, I have good news for you! God loves you, and Jesus Christ...

Sounds about right. He knew what the city dwellers were doing was wrong and its not so easy I guess, even today, to get out of a city you hate living in. We cant all go and live in haybarns can we when we hate where we live sometimes. I guess this was Lots "lot".

David Bowie said the same thing later in life. Gabor Mate is a good source to look into - he is an advocate for things beginning in childhood trauma, especially addictions, ADHD etc of which he is one of the leading experts. He is really cool to listen to as well.

Just a note to add to what you say about new age Vegans being commanded not to eat meat. I know many New Age people, none of which I agree with, but as far as I know, no one "commands" them to not eat meat. They do not eat meat for a thousand reasons other than that. I haven't eaten meat for...

There are many who talk about what the “unforgivable sin” is and worry about it. Matthew 12:31-32 31Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. 32And whosoever speaketh a word...

Remember no matter how bad you feel, you couldn't feel as bad as Paul. He claimed himself the "Chief of all sinners" so no matter what anyone has done, no one did worse than him in his own words. Read about Paul when he was Saul to see what he was like before he saw the light on the road to...

One of the hardest things to learn is "don't repeat anything" if you hear gossip. It also is less likely if you don't hang around with gossips either. In fact, it has been said that friendship is based on common interest. Once that friendships loses its common interest, so does the...

It is certainly true that many successful musicians and lyricists credit their songs and words to "inspiration". They say, "it just came to me from somewhere else" like poets often would say. The word inspired is a translation of the Greek word theopneustos, meaning God-breathed.

Oh what a meeting!

Yes it is a strange end for Lots wife. And to "remember Lots wife" has to have some significance. I have always thought that "looking back" (as the OT was a shadow of things to come) represented her hankering after what she was leaving, despite being warned not to look back and maybe why Lot...

There are plenty of people who get what they don't deserve, even if it ends well for them in the hereafter. And also, it is impossible for some to make a "heaven on earth" for themselves because of the circumstances they are born into as they cannot climb out of those circumstances no matter...

I suppose in that case, the husband would do well to stifle the disgust he feels for his wife and be civil. He might well then say "Poor me, poor me, pour me a drink."

It is true what you say; peer pressure to conform to what the angry atheists think these days is heavy. Take courage to not run with the crowd. I have no idea why they are so angry given that they believe in nothing but an ever changing science. Most of them have not been bothered to look up...

Most non believers back up their view with Science. But they cannot back up their view that since the beginning, science is always changing. Science is always changing but the Truth never changes. The creation works just the same as it did in the beginning, but so called "Science Theory"...

Then what "appears" to be better and better. They have to say "peace and safety first" For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with...

It makes you wonder why Lot lived there in the first place. I mean was he "locked in" so he couldn't leave? Was it hard to find a new dwelling place or was it Lots wife who seemed to look back who kept him there. What did she like about it? If a place vexed your soul so much, surely you would...

This is so true. Also, the other "Lazarus" who was raised from the dead was walking about plain for all to see - even to some of those who shouted "crucify him, crucify him". So even one risen from the dead (and even Jesus) did not make them believe. Indeed. I suspect that the name given in...

Thanks for that WH . It is very interesting the translations of the root word. Especially your quote on "bowels". Seems to resemble a phrase used in what happened to Judas. Although it is strange that Judas never asked Jesus for forgiveness even when he said "I have betrayed innocent blood"...

That's okay and great that you noticed it. I have done that before as well (get crosseyed with so many threads!)
