Being back at square one has a refreshing element to it.
Yes it does.

Why am I not surprised that you would take exception to what I shared on the subject? Yes, you can stop it by having it REMOVED from your heart in the first place, ie. cleaning the INSIDE of the cup, which is what the HG does so well, seek out the hidden things of the heart, and then delivers you of them. Or you can proclaim through imaginings that it is not there. Peace

It's a primitive belief which contradicts the scripture, that is why.Namaste

Hebrew term for "shed" - shaphak - to spill forth (blood, a libation, liquid metal; or even a solid, i.e. to mound up); also (figuratively) to expend (life, soul, complaint, money, etc.)

I would be hard pressed, not to hunt down the beast - taking his life in return.

"Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord."

Is there really a difference in the undertaking of that promise?

And what primitive belief that contradicts what scripture, would that be? Here's what I said to refresh your memory...


"There's another way to shed blood. The woman/soul/womb/heart that gives off issues of unclean/corrupted Word.

Guard your heart, for out of it come the issues of LIFE, but only if the life of the Spirit is what is in it, and not the death of the fleshly desires, appetites, and self-satisfying, flesh enlivening doctrines that keep the unclean blood flowing instead of being pregnant with, and ultimately, birthing the Son. This is why a menstrual woman is unclean and why it is a Jewish idiom for idolatry. Peace"

I don't see that which is natural as filthy rags.
However, taking a life would be unnatural.

Actually what you said here goes along with what I said above, as the "filthy rags" that are our righteousness are a direct allusion to the Jewish idiom of menstral rags of a woman who has NOT become pregnant and birthed a Son, which is due to idolatry, which is us stubbornly trying to create our own righteousness apart from Him WHO IS our righteousness. Peace

There is no need above concern.
Instuctions are given only to those that forget the letter.


Greet know one the road.
"They say evil is good:
No purse nor sandal will be found by force.
Take care to clear the way.
