    What does this mean to you?

    Right. Over and over the scriptures testify of our Lords' right alone to judge and compassion in doing so. The "woman caught in adultry" is one of many good examples. So who are we? 😊

    What does this mean to you?

    Exactly! Moses accuses unbelievers of the One he wrote about, the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. Jn.12:58

    What does this mean to you?

    Yes. We can follow knowing the law says we're no better than anyone. People can also not follow that truth.

    What does this mean to you?

    Hello tourist. I believe the law says the opposite, because the law doesn't allow an innocent man to be put to death by false witnesses. When Paul says, For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures 1Cor.15:3...

    What does this mean to you?

    When we ger right to it, our Lord means that he came to defeat death. He didn't come to defeat the law. The law says the innocent should not be put to death. Jesus fulfilled the law as he is alive. 😊

    Milk or Meat? What are you getting

    The passage you cited tells us that Jesus, who didn't need to learn anything, being eternal High Priest, born that way on earth, existing that way always.....didn't proclaim himself as such, but appeared as any other man!!! So, in whatever capacity we are, following him is the meat of the word...

    Milk or Meat? What are you getting

    What I get from your post is that the meat of the word is in living for him. By the way, I feel exactly like you where my children and grandchildren are concerned. We can let them know how sorry we are for the mistakes we made raising them, but we will be Christ like examples to them now and...

    I Samuel 4

    Hello kaylagirl. It seems that believing Jews have never lost Gods' approval and are still his chosen people because of their faith in him, And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness. Gen.15:6 Unbdlieving Jews have lost Gods' approval and are still not his chosen...

    "Father, forgive them............."

    I don't think either group knew. I don't think it really hits people, until they consider their sin against God and God in human flesh.

    The Supremacy of Christ

    I see no difference in what we're saying. I wonder if "emptied" can mean poured himself out, as in, gave everything he had? Maybe.

    The Supremacy of Christ

    It's both from different perspectives. Our Savior emptied himself of immediately bringing judgment on mankind, which is what God may do. Our Lord also never stopped being God, in that God is merciful to people who greatly sin against him. They both fit perfectly. 😊

    Paul and 1 Corinth 12:3

    One other thing is that we are in a war. We go to battle daily and some days don't fare so well, to put it gently. One thing I do know. God corrects us because he loves us and we need our hearts prepared for that on either end.

    The Supremacy of Christ

    You would also be Supreme over all if you conquered death, so Jesus is Supreme over all. 😊

    Paul and 1 Corinth 12:3

    He meant by the way they live, that their lives speak for them, Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men: 2Cor.3:2

    The powers that be...

    I can see where someone who was told he was god on earth, as Pharaol believed himself to be, would be "initially prideful" by the time Moses showed up. If you can't see it this way, I'm fine with it. I have no problem with the texts you're citing. Younger believers are tested by the unloving who...

    The powers that be...

    Yes, just as God used Pharaohs prideful heart against him by sending his lowly servant Moses to him. Sihon is really no different. And here's something else, And we took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed the men, and the women, and the little ones, of every city, we left none...

    The powers that be...

    I'm not disagreeing with you. God has a right to test any normal thinking person on earth. The idea that God wants anyone to rebel against him is not found in scripture. It's apparent from the passage you cited that the spoilers didn't need a whole lot to push them into the dark, Thus saith the...

    Well, sinners are "made" by violating Gods' law. It's like the potter and clay, Read Jer.18:1-10. He's saying according to acceptance or rejection of his word is how the Potter forms the clay. And our integrity will be tried.

    God said people who wander from him would walk in darkness. From decrees like this, we can say the wicked are made by God this way.
