Dear Friend Serenetime........I seized upon the word "constellations" in my post to casiv and if you would please show me the place of astrology (not numerics) in Christianity I will have a new study :-) You further presume I have no concordance and no discernment. You are wrong on both counts. You also presume that CASIV is a male. I assumed she was a female (hence Miss Cleo) since I have discerned that CASIV is easily deceived by numbers. Jesus never said "trust no man" as kalos has pointed out to you, but Paul's letter to Timothy did mention a couple of things; First,1 Tim 4:1 describes what would happen in later times (following deceiving spirits) and second, 1 Tim 2:14 tells us that it was the woman who was deceived. Women just seem to go for this stuff. No, not all women, just as some men are easily deceived. I did not think that I was insulting as you say because I responded in a manner like Casivs' earlier posts. I try to talk to a person on their level, wherever they are, and however they talk. I blend in well with unbelievers too if I have to so that I may get to the Good News somehow. Some cultures (sub-cultures actually) use language that may seem insulting to us (or me) but if that is the way they communicate then fine. I try to make the point using the familiar language style. You do not need to come to Casivs' defense unless you know that she was insulted. But....I apologize to you and to Casiv for my reference to Miss Cleo (Tarot reader) but I am at a loss to come up with a better comparison at this time :-) In the Father's love indeed.......Jensen |

Matt 18:21 Then came Peter unto Him, and said," Lord how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? Matt 18:22 Jesus saith unto him,"I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, seventy times seven. As for trust no man: Jer 17:5 Thus saith the Lord;" Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord. And Luke 18:9 And He spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: Regarding Constellations: In the first mention of the heavenly bodies, the purpose of the Creator is clearly stated, Gen 1:14-19 reveals the fact that they were created, not only "to divide the day from night, and to give light upon the earth"; but, they were set "for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years". Signs therefore, of something or some One to come. Those who understand them are enlightened by them. Those who do not may well be "dismayed" Jer 10:2 The stars were all named by God. Psalm 147:4 God is the God of the earth and the heavens and astrology has everything to do with Christianity, it tells the story of Christ starting with Virgo which is the Virgin Birth and there are twelve constellations which the number twelve denotes governmental perfection. I did not make this up the Father did and He named the constellations. Now you have two new studies, numbers and constellations. May Jesus show you the way! Matt 7:1 Judge not, that ye be not judged Matt 7:2 For with what judgement ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. Matt 7:7 Ask and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: Matt 7:8 For everyone that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Also I am a man, so don't assume things and you will stay out of the hot seat and it sounds like you are putting women down saying they are easily deceived. You better take a look at your own self and remember if were not for a Woman you would not be here. If I offend you some how just say so and I will be a little softer. All men and women are created equal, just some more blind than others. We have to admonish each other not put each other down. Next time it's Mr. Cleo.LOL May Jesus show you the compassions of Love for your brothers and sisters and the enemy not cause you to be sucked into his tricks of division,greed, power, jealousy or envy. |

Casiv.......Once again you do not answer the question. The question was one of Astrology. It must be obvious to all by now that you are on some mission other than a bible study. You make things up,...take verses out of context,...and say very mean things to people who mean you no harm. My observation is that you put more faith in numbers, which were not part of the manuscripts, than you do in Jesus and what He said, and which is part of the manuscript. I can not speculate on why except that, perhaps, one day you found yourself bored with the plain teaching of the Bible. Please leave me alone. Trying to follow your illogic has become tedious. God Bless...Jensen |
