Who ever told you the goal was to be "sensible"? If you had been standing next to Jesus you would have told Him to stop bothering Lazarus and let him rest in peace, because that would have been the "sensible" thing to do. Fortunately, for Lazarus and for us, you WEREN'T. And I'd like to keep it that way; move over son, you're crowding me, I'm expecting a miracle. Peace

Saying things are to be read in the context in which they were written is not tearing anything out.

Isn't it far worse to say "God dictated this" and then proceed to declare that YOUR interpretation of it all just so happens to be the same as God's?
You have to read/between the/lines.

OK. Your beliefs need not make sense. Thank you for admitting it.

However, I think all but your equally-damaged acolytes knew that by now.

Instead, I'll just marvel at this revelation that Jesus was sent here to judge, rather than save, us. Who knew? The things you learn on CD!

Now...off to that Meatloaf thread where I guess I should be snarkily beefing that they eat meat--because I don't.

We know that there is significant corruption because we use the "mind of Christ" and the Comforter to test the Spirit of what is "written in ink" against what God has "written in our hearts."

I said nothing about the Jews. My post was to Richard and that was why it was deleted. What do you think Jesus meant when He said ALL the law is encompassed in the two commands to love God and each other??

Ok, that is a straight up falsehood, so there is no point in any further discussion with you. I can read. Peace

Marriage was it?


Matt 26
While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, "Take and eat; this is my body."


23 For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; 24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “Take, eat;[b] this is My body which is broken[c] for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” 25 In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”
