But the big difference between us is that I know how to spell "pinnacle".

If you find one nun it is enough.

If you divide the syllables equally you will find the name to be sheer and benign.

Blessings Always.

Do you like nuns?

Here is a story.

I used to go to a restaurant in Paterson, NJ, called Patsy's. It was in the back of a bar where the firefighters hung out, and they served good, cheap Italian food with dark wine in carafes that turned your teeth purple.

One night I was eating there with my family, and we saw the servers pushing tables together. Soon the back door opened, and in walked about eight nuns in full habit. The "sisters" were apparently regulars, and the waitresses busied themselves making sure they were comfortable.

Those nuns knocked back that purple wine, laughing and eating and telling stories.

Brides of Christ, having a good time.

Nun,
The letter is far more important than you realize.
And it shows in your lack of knowledge.

It is a very special letter. Especially to the women of the house of Yisrayl..

Forget everything you cursed.

There are those who have deluded themselves and and seek to delude others. Some of us recognize them.

Dear Diesel: perhaps you could expand a mite on what exactly my Christian brothers & sisters are in disagreement?

Is the work of Jesus Christ, the Last Adam "all the more" or less than Adam1?

Dear Diesel: Perhaps my brothers and sisters are in disagreement with the Apostles word regarding the extent of the Masters reconciliation?

"He is the propitiation for our sins & not for our sins ONLY, but for the sins of the whole world."

"God's care for us is more watchful and more tender than the care of any human father could possibly be." -Hannah Whitall Smith-

"Put together all the tenderest love you know of, multiply it by infinity, and you will begin to see glimpses of the love and grace of God." -Hannah Whitall Smith-

I hesitate to reply to your wonderful posts, Rose because I don't want to interfere with your beautiful points of view. But this propitiation misunderstanding is based on a God who needs to be appeased and that is NOT our Father. Our entire species was failing to achieve the love that God IS. Jesus was our "designated hitter" which is why His achievement applies to all of us. He achieved perfect resonance (Identity) with God's agape love and connects us all to God. There was no appeasement needed, just perfect agape love. Now, all we need to do is achieve some harmonic resonance (harmony) with Christ's perfect agape love (Grace) to be connected to God. YMMV.

Dear Mystic: My friend there is indeed no appeasement needed! God is our Father, He is and always will be for us. The most intimate word in Canon, as you most surely know is, abba. The Firstborn cries abba Father, and that cry resonates in all the brethren Abba gives to Him.

I am struggling to express what I behold as propitiation, but harmonic vibrations of union and communion with Him may be a start.

John Gavazzoni My Dad, God

Greater Emmanuel International - Serious Seminal Samplings - John Gavazzoni

"If you want to know what God the Father is like, what He is really like: Just look at Jesus. If you want to know what the Father’s attitude about sinners, including you, really is, read the parable of the prodigal son. If you want to know what God’s character is like, observe Jesus forgiving those who beat, tortured, and murdered Him. If you want to know what the Father does when we fall short of being the best example of Him toward others watch Jesus as He weeps over Jerusalem because they refused the peace He brought to them.

If you want to know what the Father is like watch as Jesus washes our feet even as we betray Him." -Wardendresden-
