The problem isn't within short and brief but error and truth. Short is good if true. Context does matter. You won't know the truth in less it is studied.

Blessing to you as well. Thank you.

Genesis 2:15 esv The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it. At one time God's intention was that man and the Lord would work together to care for His creation. It is a beautiful image of the desired relationship between man and God. But not only that...

It was both.

Permissive is what God allows under free will. If sovereign will then there would be no sin or evil. Free will is the duel reality where humans sin or respond to Him (free will), God allows evil to a degree (permissive), but yet He works in it all to bring about His (Sovereign) will...

It has to be a cultural issue for sure. The American church culture has done it the same way for 150+ years at least. Probably began to change after the industrial revolution when the family began to be put to work. Then poor economics and poor tariff deals like the Smoot-Hawley Tariff led the...

If physical was a done deal then no one would die. Sin is not the only reason for disease or illness.

Praying for peace. We just created a group for mental illness support if you want to be connected.

Praying for healing. Going through my own issues. Life is rough at times.

God has had a major role in that department lol. I agree! That is a blessing not that it occurred that way but that he can function on his own. I fear for my oldest and out of the two boys we took into the home, my nephews, the youngest struggles due to trauma. I'm not so sure if they can be...

Well in many ways it was a blessing. It gave me much sympathy for the hurting. It truly brought me to the Lord. Age gets the best of us but ironically it seems to be for most of our lives the body goes well before the mind. The mind still feels like the 20s, 30s, 40s but the body says not so...

Amen to that. My kids want me to set up the projector so they can watch movies under the stars. So I hoping the weather holds up. You are doing great to be there for your daughter when those questions arise. That is so important and probably more lasting than you realize.

It is indeed rare but if you hang around long enough there are quite a few regulars that connection is easy. I think most of us feel the same way about your quote. Most want the early church setting but I think the sacrifice is more than most want to give. They were like family, constantly...

My family knows my humanity better than anyone but yes they keep me sane and when fighting against the forces of evil they are my homefront from the battle front. It is devastating when the homefront is attacked because then there is nowhere to rest, recover, and regain strength. I suppose there...

Horrible day and even still as so many have died being held hostage and still 40+ are believed to be alive. No one should forget what started the war.

Mostly just tired but looking forward to 4 days off starting Friday. That is wonderful!! That is always start. We can keep praying because the seeds planted could easily take root anyday, any moment. Oh yeah I saw your bio said you were new to the faith although I wouldn't have guessed it...

I think having a group that shares media content is great. I teach and study the scriptures so it is very helpful to be made aware of great media content.

Thank you, it isn't easy to trust always but I find it easy to love always. Out of love, I abide, I cling, I hold on, and although trust is difficult sometimes but when your car hydroplanes all you can do is hang on and accept that we are all in God's hands.

As many times as it takes. I suppose you are referring to an apostate. Hebrews 6:4-6 English Standard Version 4 For it is impossible, in the case of those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have shared in the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the goodness of...

This is like saying that my soul is not part of my identity or who I am. 1 Cor 2:11 ESV For who knows a person's thoughts except the spirit of that person, which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. Early church creed speaking of the Spirit—...
