Greetings EdB. I really appreciate your encouragement. So often I feel a bit overwhelmed in our dialogue here as I don't know the "lingo" that is bantied about. I'm just a little old housewife with the privilege of time on her hands . . . to be able to sit at this computer and learn more about the Lord who loves me! In the midst of all this discussion about "election," my daily Bible readings have affirmed what I perceive to be "freedom of choice" for mankind. However, I recognize the need for some in our cyber-fellowship to strain a gnat out of the broth . . . as for me, I believe that we are "fearfully and wonderfully made". And when we swallow something that is inedible we either gack it up or it just goes through and out! You and I would probably not agree on all things . . .but this not to say that our discussions are not edifying, for indeed they can be as we allow the Holy Spirit to guide us into HIS TRUTH! What He reveals to me today, may not be what He reveals to you - for God knows what each of our hearts need! And right now, He's telling me not to be concerned about the PROCESS but rather just bask in the reality of His presence in my life! I have found that sometimes, we must just be satisfied with leaving the mysteries of God in HIS Hands! Why major on the minors? You wrote: "I believe God used the word Elect to give a special status to those that choose Christ, not in reference to a process (AMEN!) where He chose those that would believe." Well said! Blessings on your day, Mommapbs |

Mommapbs, having just read your gracious and sensible post to EdB, delivered with your usual charm and humility, I, if I may, would like to join in by citing a passage from it that strikes me as especially wise, to wit: "I have found that sometimes we must just be satisfied with leaving the mysteries of God in His hands." I can think of no footnote worthy of this fine line than merely to say a hearty Amen. --Hank | ||||||

For this reason I also suffer these things, but I am not ashamed; for I know whom I have believed and I am convinced that He is able to guard what I have entrusted to Him until that day. 2Tim 1:12 Greetings Hank - thanks for the encouragement. Blessings. Mommapbs |
