Greetings Stunndedby grace: yes there were many such as Job, Daniel, Hannah ect......Jesus atoning blood went into effect in Gen. 3-15 when sin entered into the world.....All the OT saints believed in a coming redemption, although it was after the fact, in that it was a coming event in the future, notwithstanding it was equally redemptive for all those both Hebrew and the Gentile in the pre-cross era, for God is no respecter of persons.......be blessed and dig deep while proving all things in scripture
E
so says the man that seems to sit behind a computer 24/7 arguing in favour of a forgone conclusion of sin in the scriptures
payment for sin, and Jesus satisfying God's wrath was never heard until 1300 years after Jesus died...how could that be? Sadly you wont take the time to even studying the history of how and when, and by whom these feeble doctrines that you believe came into existence...

Thank you ...I was just reading that verse out to my self while having some quiet time with the Lord...I was repeating each word and thinking about how MUCH He LOVES us and then by saying Thank you God that NOTHING can separate me from your love...It just made me feel so secure, it kind of confirms all His promises to those of us who TRUST, BELIEVE and RELY on Him...xox...

with out context, is like sketching without purpose. if no body see s , your work, after your dead, will you care.
strange question would be , why continue, when you have been proven wrong. is he/she living on the north or south pole. lets air our thoughts, together, you can run and there is no place, that you can hide, consider the one ant , without and other ant.history with ofspring. good thing the animal went in by two by two. etc how else, did you get to voice your opinion, i have already quoted dr who in the tardis, small problem, who made the tardis to shield, the rain from your head. etc

I...believe it was? There is no other explanation I can think of for why I did not believe God existed and then in a moment I did.
I didn't see and then I suddenly did. I can't fathom how that came from me or something I did.
I've heard "choose for Christ." That's not how it happened to me. I suddenly saw that He was and what choice IS there then? In fact, it's like...prior to seeing, I HAD no choice, but after seeing I did have a choice. No one would reject God after they see that He is would they...?

Oh I'm glad you're back! I was in a tizzy.
The OT sacrifice that spoke of Him to come, the animal died in their place, to cover their sin. Without the blood there was no forgiveness of their sin. This is someone (or something, an animal) dying instead of me having to die. There has always been this need to have that covering of blood for sins and it has always been extracted from an innocent, even in the garden an animal died to cover them. (Animals were subjected to this futility, they didn't choose it).
Who doesn't know this has given us a way to reconciliation? Every time I murder someone in anger but I can still go to Him, it's because the Blood covers my sin, isn't it?

Hi Jim and I see and also agree, with your statement above.
I noticed your 3 soldier's on your avatar and your military reference hear on Christianchat.com. First of all I want to thank you for your military service to your country. I served in Vietnam from 1970-71 4th Inf. Div. 4/42, Air Mobile; Honorable Discharge.
Today, 47yrs fast forward I have incurable, stage 4 prostate cancer caused by Agent Orange from Vietnam, it is an anti foliage chemical used by our Govt. to clear jungle vegetation. My wife say's, the Vietcong could not kill me and neither will the cancer. We all pray for an extended life for me - friends, family and Church family. Most people here on CC know this about me already.
So please excuse or at least pardon me, if I have said anything that would be offensive to you and so that we can both move on an enjoy our Christian life and the "peaceful but lively" conversations we all anticipate here at, Christianchat.com. God bless.
