1 | "Least in the kingdom of God"? | Matt 11:11 | Zsuzsi | 122688 | ||
Hi VictorA, I suggested a reading into Revelations because that is one of the most obvious things to read when we want to learn about the kingdom of God and the end of the times... :-) I read the entire book last night, actually, and also prayed; I honestly did my best to see things from your point of view but I am still arriving at paradoxical questions. I think we need a very intimate relationship with the Lord before we can understand these prophecies as they were meant to be understood, just like in the case of the OT books of the prophets. It is really "solid food", to put it that way: no wonder why He fed the people milk instead in His parables! But I do hope He comes soon. Come, Lord Jesus... (Rev 22:20) And yes, sure, we can discuss many things about Revelations if you have questions - I love this book too: it's scary yet beautiful. To start with, I'll post my thoughts about the very first verse, as you asked; look up Rev 1:1. Yours in Christ, Zsuzsi |

2 | "Least in the kingdom of God"? | Matt 11:11 | Emmaus | 122690 | ||
Zsuzsi, One reason that you find victorA's correspondences a little different is that they tend to reflect the teaching of the Jehovah's Witnesses or The Watchtower Society, which does not belive in the Trinity, the divinity of Jesus or that the Holy Spirit is a person. Emmaus |

3 | "Least in the kingdom of God"? | Matt 11:11 | Zsuzsi | 122698 | ||
Emmaus, You might be right. Yet, seeking the Truth I normally attempt to consider all points of view, and take all uncertain issues directly to the Lord in prayer. His answers are usually fast and clear enough - just as in this case. A young person like me, in such a media- and money-centered society, can only hold onto the teaching that comes directly from Him. So He has the last word. :-) Psalm 119 is one of my favorites: "How can a young man keep his way pure? By living according to your word. I seek you with all my heart; do not let me stray from your commands. I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you. Praise be to you, O LORD; teach me your decrees." Psalm 119:9-12 Thanks for the comment, though. :-) God bless you, Zsuzsi |
