I think I figured out what I'm doing wrong, which hopefully I can now check off my very long list of screwups...lolYeah, ok, we all do, but you seem to be answering your own posts, lol, a lot. Just sayin'...
ok, now you're improving. Very good!I think I figured out what I'm doing wrong, which hopefully I can now check off my very long list of screwups...lol
Only when they fit ─ which often enough they don't.OK, you have to put the scriptures together.
Just so. All five versions of Jesus deny they're God and never claim to be God.Jesus was not "God-on-earth-in-human-form" as some claim.
The authors of Matthew and of Luke agree with "only-begotten". The author of Mark out loud, and Paul and the author of John inferentially, disagree. Paul and the author of John apparently think instead that Jesus as spirit entered into an ordinary Jewish male zygote and was duly born Jewish ─ or something to that effect.The proof, as they say, is that Jesus was raised up and seen by many after his resurrection. There are other indications that Jesus was truly God's "only-begotten" Son, in heaven and on earth.
you know every five years I looked back and thought I was an idiot, and then one day I realized I am an idiot, it will just take five years to figure out why.....ok, now you're improving. Very good!
As I have given great thought to the question as to whether the Bible is true or not, I have come to the conclusion that whatever happened, it is true. One of the reasons is that there is so much detail that only those who were very close to the situation somehow by hearing about it from people they trusted, or by seeing it, would give them the information to write it down. And to transmit it as a sacred document from generation to generation. So whether others believe it, I have decided that however it is phrased, I believe that it is a message from God. (The "Word" of God.)Nor does it mean it is true, either, of course. Nor is it necessarily a binary question. It's possible some parts are true and others aren't. In fact the evidence indicates that's the case.
I don't think you're an idiot.you know every five years I looked back and thought I was an idiot, and then one day I realized I am an idiot, it will just take five years to figure out why.....
I've been reading some books on evolution and the origin of life. (Not Darwin, but science textbooks.) While I am not cognizant of all the terms (yet), I have a book describing the mechanics of living matter. And the author posits that there are no "uncomplicated" primary elements, the building blocks of life. Or of the theory. Of evolution. He doesn't make a judgment on this, but it certainly makes one wonder. Doesn't it?You rejected the theory of evolution after having had a spiritual awakening…?
In my experience, people (atheists or religious) who feel that faith and evolution contradict each other, often do so because they do not take into account the historical and cultural contexts of language, or, because they ignore that religious scripture is written precisely in language and therefore carries greater metaphorical content than literal.
Normally, a spiritual awakening makes it difficult to continue to see language as something fixed and entirely literal and thereby changes a person’s way of reading Scripture.
It is interesting that your experience has not had this characteristic effect.

(Me, too.) Honesty also.Thank goodness! I'm encouraged when religious people change their interpretation of a text to match the available evidence. I think it shows openness and flexibility and humility.
You might want to take a look at the following account: (Acts chapter 8 regarding the Ethiopian man who went to Jerusalem to worship.)Thank goodness! I'm encouraged when religious people change their interpretation of a text to match the available evidence. I think it shows openness and flexibility and humility.
Thank you, that was very nice of you to say that. You know when I was younger, of all the things I wanted to do with my life, I honestly thought, solving all the problems of human existence, was what I desired most. As everything else, seemed like the wrong way. And I once followed a man, who thought along these same lines, and someone once asked him, if he really believed that doing this would make any difference. And he told them, I don't know, but at least someone can keep the candle burning. And I always thought, that was the perfect direction, and the right answer. Have a great night, a good sleep, and hopefully a big smile, because you made my day a lot brighter....I don't think you're an idiot.
All knowledge had to be contained in consciousness itself first, as without the source, we could not understand what were thinking, as it had to have the ability to process what were thinking about first, and so the source already contained everything mankind has ever done, are will ever do, Jesus. Just a thought, have a nice night.In existence any observed body is completed and owns it own end as end means formed.
Our human form then ends a second time. We were taught we owned two ends to one life presence. As we biologically die.
The subject natural scientific observation.
Humans applying consciously all scientific status.
The sun yesterday was bigger. So light yesterday is voided and gone. Once was a science teaching.
Light is only present now.
Earths owned heavens is gas light burning voided also.
Science said I want. Theories coldest highest heaven earth gas immaculate. Night sky.
Day sky says immaculate cold clear gas already burnt up.
Science lied. Scientists state I want.
All atmospheric states were theories without human science as a practice owning it. Gas advice. The heavens.
As their science one theories was to obtain get and hold gas bodies of it came from dusts taken from earth planet and converted. By humans as science.
By burning.
So scientists were pre taught and told they never would own hold nor obtain the immaculate gas versus science today whose claim is I will do whatever I want.
Pretty basic human advice about men in groups holding unnatural life choices by being rich and by group past bullying making unnatural life choices for everyone.
Rational humans had to challenge unnatural group human behaviour that supports life being destroyed. Which is in fact a very difficult human task. Seeing men did it to us historic by group bullying choices. Just humans.
Being a correct human hence only related to natural human every day living survival advice. To be totally human correct. To be totally correct is to only live as a natural human.
Natural human is first.
Science a theoried subject was a choice.
