    God is running everything but man can live longer, have more, be blessed abundantly should he choose to live for God. Should man choose to reject God many don't live as long and suffer long illnesses.

    Understanding God’s election

    I believe that God makes comments based upon His foreknowledge knowing like Pharaoh on his own choosing hardened his heart or that Esau chose to throw away his birthright. I don't believe God hates these people to just hate them. I believe God hates them because He knew what they would do that...

    20 The nefesh that sinneth, it shall die. The ben shall not bear the avon of the av, neither shall the av bear the avon of the ben; the tzedakat hatzaddik shall be upon him, and the rishat rashah shall be upon him. 21 But if the rashah will turn from all his chattot that he hath committed, and...

    Understanding God’s election

    Sinners are sinners and wanting them to repent and choose life means that. Besides I know the Hebrew Tanakh and you only know the English. Big difference in meaning and translation.

    Show me the Father

    The thing that is interesting is we know for a fact most of the Disciples were fishermen who only dealt with the Jews because Gentiles were scum to them. Most Disciples were from Capernaum and historians prove only could speak Hebrew\Aramaic. I wonder just how many words were not...

    Show me the Father

    Amen! The interesting fact is we know that Jesus claimed to be I AM in John Chapter 8 and I AM is the name of God told to Moses when God\Jesus (before He was known as Jesus) said to Moses I AM the Elohim of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob:... 6 Moreover He said, I am Elohei Avicha, Elohei Avraham...

    How God wants sinners to repent doesn't matter the covenant. God still wants them to repent.
