1 | Can you explain 'days will be shortened' | Matt 24:22 | John Pilgrim | 114860 | ||
The problem is that faith does not rhyme with "tell't". Are feelings are God given as well. Joy, guilt etc. We have faith, and, we experience as a feeling as well as a fact. Feelings that are in harmony with God's Word are essential to healthy spirituality. We feel the love of God and respond with loving emotions. Sorry for the brevity of my responses. Sweat of the brow for bread keeps calling. John |

John, here's how I feel about it... "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?" (Jer 17:9) ...I think. Here's a good, slightly tangential article: http://www.nytimes.com/top/opinion/editorialsandoped/oped/columnists/ Click on "Hooked on Heaven Lite", by David Brooks. Colin |

3 | Can you explain 'days will be shortened' | Matt 24:22 | John Pilgrim | 115443 | ||
Dear Colin, Brooks hit the nail on the head. Thanks for the link. Consider the fact that we are no longer depraved sons of our father the devil; that our hearts of stone have been replaced with hearts of flesh; that old things have passed away and we have been made new creatures in Christ. The furthest thing from my mind was a touchy-feely type of theology. Nevertheless, God has given us emotions for a reason. Emotions are good when they are moved by moral and spiritual truth. Guilt (for instance) may not be pleasent, but where would we be without it? Let's not through out the baaby with the bath water. :-) John |

John, was the devil once our father? Were you and I once his sons? Colin |
