Magenta, Appears there are postings about my "ludicrous and bullying behaviors". Also, from some of your posts, it appears you are as combative as I am. Reference Gojira for one. But the icing on the cake came from the denial of my post in the Bible Discussion Forum of 5 questions about the...

To all who have read this thread, thank you for your input. It's time for me to depart as I have stirred the pot with a radioactive spoon and I sense tension over the internet. That was not my intent but it has been an informative couple of days. I bid you adieu!

blueskies: Your response warmly received. I'm searching as to why people believe what they believe. Most that I've come in contact with are simply following the guidance of someone else and simply re-speaking what has already been spoken. Be advised, I don't think I fit into this forum because...

Magenta: I appreciate your directness and I'm impressed with the research you've done and your ability to transmit that knowledge. Thank you. I'm not searching for answers for myself nor my spiritual condition. I'm interested in challenging others with questions to find out why people believe...

Very eloquently said and very appreciatively received. You're well grounded in your quest for Eternity. Kudos!

Magenta: Please don't feel sorry for me as I have been greatly helped by what comes from the Sacred Writings. I have found much comfort and understanding. But from my point of view two people can read the same thing and get opposite meanings. Here is an unrelated example that may (not will)...

#1. Was the Book of Job a parable? #2. Does God have Monday morning staff meetings with Satan invited? #3. God is omnipotent and omniscient, so why did He ask Satan where he had been and what he was doing? #4. Was God expecting Satan to tell the truth? #5. Does God make wagers with Satan?

Magenta: I stand corrected.

Magenta I'm in total agreement that we speak English and not trying to generate frustration but the thought comes to mind that when we pronounce the Latin name Jesus for our named friends south of us, we use their dialect of Hay-sus. Interesting.

blueskies: I can't find any statement by Paul about being saved today. My view is Paul was pursuing salvation everyday but he had not yet attained that goal and wouldn't until the last day. Does this challenge the "Permanence of Salvation" movement? Give me your thoughts here, please.

Yes, and this is what was revealed. Unless I hear the Voice of God in my current troubles, words written thousands of years ago won't help me today. Too many people today believe in Bibliolatry and have elevated the Bible to the fourth level of the Trinity. They won't walk down the hall...

76 year old male that has rounded third and headed for home. Searched for over 40 years for answers to why people believe what they believe and the search continues. Thousands of questions but will begin with three. #1. If God forgives sins when we confess, just exactly what is the...
