this is why ejection is as important as election,
Simply put penalties have to be served in order to correct, this is why we have good stewards in a race, who will decide how the race will continue, whether they should serve a yellow flag or a red flag, but it's how you compete in the race, some people are so bad that when i Was a kid competing in cart racing, there was one kid who whacked people of the track all the time trying to win a race, later on in life he hated life so bad and not winning and being banned he went berserk, and ploughed into many people on a 15 mile death spree even hitting a woman and a pram.
Wow, yes, seen it, and have been tried to be put in it, not me, myself. Yet in ignorance, even as Saul was in ignorance and thought he was doing rigteously. I see in that story of Saul.
When Stephan got stoned to death by the Legalists. Saul was there and approved of it
Seeing Stephan accept his death, saying he sees the Light of God, and rejoiced in this.
I put me in this story, as if I am Saul watching this, and seeing Stephan saying he sees God and is safe. My first thought of the flesh I am in is:
What???????????????????? who goes to their death willingly?
then the road to Damascus!
And Saul learned to let go of legalism and just love all in the same mercy of love given him through Son Jesus and Father for him, as his name was changed to Paul by God for him to give us the message of Love and mercy for all, to all. Phil 3, I gave up Law to win Christ!
The tares are not to 'be pulled up yet, God reaching out to all still in mercy, love and truth still, not wanting anyone of us people to persish, that is Love beyond understanding, I see to simply accept it, and any adversities as well. to live above circumstances here on earth first, being thankful in all things, by contentment from God given me
Paul talked about being content, whether rich here or not on earth
The Jail help decided to beleive Paul about God. Seeing Paul not complain about being in Jail. Who does that?
Love overcomes evil always, even whenever seems as not so, since flesh itself argues still 1 Cor 3 about wars and arguments
