1 | Are we ever "worthy" of God's love? | John 3:16 | Treadway | 52227 | ||
Hello John: Thanks much for the note of empathy. I may be too far gone, or too far along. In fact, just writing this feels like my last posting. (I said this last week, also, by the way!) :) Good bunch of people, for the most part, but I need, I think, a wider depth site, one that will accomodate the really hard questions. Here is not the place. Plus there's a little too much of the "dueling" verses--reminds me of that old saying: "My daddy can beat up your daddy..." :) And all using the same criteria, the same Books, chapters, and verses! And what is really odd, is that no one seems to recognize that when they declare the other not to have the "truth", is that all believers are basing their own arguments on ancient "paraphased" hearsay, no more, no less. I wrote a position post the other day, in effect, saying that the 2nd Coming will not happen, and tried to coherently connect the dots for its support. Did I succeed? Well, I don't know, since no one really took issue with the thrust of its theme. I found that disappointing. If my position is wrong, I would have expected some strong remedy. None came. What could that mean? Indifference? Denial? Disgust? Incredulity? Made too much sense? Or, maybe it was thought that this notion was just too silly. Or, could be that it was thought that this kind of position really shouldn't be discussed on this kind of site? I think I'm going to accept this last one as bona fide. And that leads me back to this will be the last posting...again, thanks for stopping by.... Treadway, always good thoughts. (And, Hank, Tim, enjoyed you two, especially...but I'm gone. Might see you somewhere else in cyberspace, though. Who can know? Take care. Tread) |

2 | Are we ever "worthy" of God's love? | John 3:16 | John Reformed | 52235 | ||
Dear Treadway, Most of us on this Forum are christian laypeople who hope to gain greater insight into the bible by asking and ansering questions. Some are much more knowledgable than others. None of us have all the answers. The vast majority of us hold a common view on essential doctrines that relate to the person of Christ and His role in saving our souls from Hell. In the end, this is what binds us together. This is of uttermost importantance! It alone will determine where we will spend eternity. For a perspective on the theology I proscribe to try www.reformed.org Hank and Tim would refer you to their favorite sites and it would be wise to take their counsel as well. Matt 7:8 "For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. Keep asking, keep seeking, keep knocking. I will remember you in prayer, John Reformed |
