Didn’t you just answer your own question?

Would this work? ”If we are faithless, he remains faithful— for he cannot deny himself.” 2 Tim 2:13

Thats cool. I was there from 72-75, minus two summers to Southeast Asia. I shared a house in Valparaiso with three other GI’s, and did a lot of fishing in the local streams that emptied into the bay. I used a tractor inner tube with a #3 washtub in the middle and a board for a seat. My roommate...

Elgin booked the overflow back then, into the Ramada Inn on the island. It’s changed hands, but we still take the grandkids there most every summer. They love the pool there, and it’s within walking distance of the fishing pier.

I look at it like a non-refundable one-way ticket issued by the King of the Universe. It’s just that some folks would rather book their own travels.

Headed to Okaloosa Is. towards the end of July. I was stationed at Eglin 71-75.

I hope you are able to think and act perfectly, because that is God’s standard, and you seem to prefer justice to mercy.

Figuratively for lost, perished, given up as dead, e.g., the prodigal son (Lk 15:24,32). Equal to apolōlṓs from apóllumi (622), to perish, lose. Also, wouldn’t that dispute the Hebrews verses many like to quote. They say that once lost that they can never return.

Is that your final answer?

Did the Prodigal son ever ever stop being the son of Father?

WE are not to judge those outside the Church, but Scripture says we are indeed to address issues within our ranks. If you feel I have judged you, then the verse I posted is doing its job. I beg you to reconsider your low view of the Scriptures.

I am sorry you feel that Paul is someone you can’t trust. I have met others with views similar to yours about Paul. Their lives didn’t end well. I am an old guy who spent years digging into the Scriptures, and I see no difference in what Paul preaches, only his audience and his idiocentric, at...

Do you disregard Peter’s words about Paul’s writings? 2 Peter 3:15Consider also that our Lord’s patience brings salvation, just as our beloved brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom God gave him. 16He writes this way in all his letters, speaking in them about such matters. Some parts of...

I see all the talk about baptizing, but no one talks about the details of a proper baptism. I think the Jews believed that the water one was dipped in must be “Living Water.” Water that occured in nature that moved with a current. They built their mikvah’s into two parts with a plug in between...

I have a study on the book of James by Spiros Zodhiates where he states in the preface that he expected the study from the original Greek to take only a few months. He said it took him three years, and changed his life. I think most any part of Scripture has the ability to change our way of...

The book of Job demonstrates that Satan is limited by God. If God allows suffering to come upon a Christian, it is to teach a valuable lesson, and to rearrange one’s priorities.

I found myself in SE Asia during the good ole days of ree-to-reel recordings. There was free reels of music to be listened to at a small building on base. Someone told me i should check out a song by the Funkadelics. It had a risqué title that i shall slightly alter. “Free your mind, and your...

Filtered or no, are they not still thoughts?

Good writing can make fiction seem real.

You have a knack for complicating the simple. You are not alone.
