42 | Is the Law abolished or not? | Eph 2:15 | coffee | 58069 | ||
Hello billk, I just wanted to say how touched I was by your note. It reminded me of 1 Cor 16:14, Eph 3:17; 4:30-32, 1 John, and many, many more, but mainly of Jesus exhibited love in the Gospels, and of Paul's pleading. God Bless You luv deb |

43 | No Sea on the New Earth | Rev 21:1 | coffee | 58062 | ||
A pleasure to serve you. I am so glad someone out there was able to reach out to you. Coffee is definitely a curse for me but I guess using it as a name here really means little to me. I make no real connection to it; giving it no real value. It is simply 6 letters of usage. I am glad it piles me into you friends list association! I would say that they also have great taste but that would be encouraging a vice so I wont go with that. It's funny, most I know love tea! It sounds like that might be you too. Have a great day my friend in Christ, luv deb |

44 | No Sea on the New Earth | Rev 21:1 | coffee | 58052 | ||
Hey Makarios, I have received another from a dear Pastor in England. I thought I should pass it on as he was kind enough to think about my request and reply. 5. 'In scripture the "sea" is often used as a metaphor for chaos. The opening verses of Genesis comes to mind or Jesus stilling the storm in Mark 4:37-39 (love that detail found only in Mark that he was asleep on a cushion while the storm raged). Unlike the Phoenicians I don't think the Israelites of that time were great sailors and for them the sea represented the unknown, the unpredictable and capricious. In that light Revelation 21:1 is quite reassuring although personally I would desperately miss the sea! Having been brought up beside it moving to Manchester was quite a shock.' Us mere mortals though, as you well know yourself, can decide and know nothing without HIS Spirit. Look just take that back - I know you know that!! God Bless You dear friend, deb |

45 | No Sea on the New Earth | Rev 21:1 | coffee | 57991 | ||
Hello Searcher, You have shed some interesting light on it with Rev 20:12,13. So could it mean that there is no longer any sea (of the dead)? Good thinking. deb |

46 | No Sea on the New Earth | Rev 21:1 | coffee | 57983 | ||
Hello dear Makarios, I think it is a very interesting query and am happy to ask around. I would be interested in the answer, if at all known, also. Thankyou for asking the question! In Jesus, deb |

47 | No Sea on the New Earth | Rev 21:1 | coffee | 57968 | ||
Hello Makarios, I am not sure - I was going through the references and it would seem in most cases the word means seas as in water but in this verse the usage appears to be a little kriptic - maybe someone can shed some light on it for you. I wish I could be of more help but anything more I say will be of mere opinion only. I know of some trusted mature Christians I can ask for you. Would you like me to try? God bless you, deb |

I do not come from that standpoint either however you do not have the wisdom to see this. And it is definitely not always the right time to use scripture. If a person has the wrong intentions it is not right for that person to use scripture. If a person does not have the right heart it is not good either. Scripture can be very easily twisted in these circumstances and risk going against God's work. No matter how correct Joe may have been he was unsuccessful for a very good reason. He was more concerned for words than heart. Throwing out into the world your knowledge of the Bible will make little difference. You can believe he was right, I do not. |

I thank God that I am not learning my Christian walk with a non gentle person like yourself. You would surely turn me away from all Christians. It is better that we stay apart. I do not need your toxicity. | ||||||

Exactly, so stop trying to be. Do you realise that the more you argue your point with someone on a theological meaning, you will acheive their steadfastness in their own interpretation? I somehow doubt this is your intention but it is what you are acheiving. Throwing scripture at a person your way will ensure and strengthen their interpretation no matter how right you may be, and even more importantly, it could convince them that you may have a lack of Christian love for them. Is that really what you want, or do you want to show God's love for them and encourage them down the right road? It isn't all about words and I know that you know this but your words do not show this. Your faith appears to be strong so do you think Jesus would beat RevC down with a stick or gently show him a different road and if RevC still disagrees what do you think Jesus would do? If you still believe your style of discussion is appropriate then by all means go ahead. I am not going to beat you down with a bullish attitude. I have witnessed too many times the destruction that follows. I am not going to through Scripture at you as if I am supposed to be better than you. If I believe someone has lost the path of love and I am not the person to show them a more loving way after trying, then I will go on my way and let God place the most appropriate person in their path. I know for sure that He will. I luv you Joe, coffee |

Dear Tim, Thankyou for your considerate note. Though my note was directed at Joe, you are most welcome to comment. I think you have made an excellent point, of which I agree; however, 2Tim 3:16 is more often abused than used in love. My intention towards Joe was to encourage him to be kinder rather that putting all of his energy into arguing a point; not to bring him down, as I am more than sure you are aware. I, myself, am not that great at achieving this, though I suspect if Joe has something to say in reply to my note, he will do so. Sometimes we have to trust God to show when He is ready. This scripture is often misused because we decide it is our job in our timing. I am extremely cautious about using scripture to put a point across because of the misuse I have witnessed. I will not argue with another who believes in something very strongly. If it is wrong, though not necessarily harmful to others, I fully believe that God will place something in their path. For example, if Rev C is wrong then I think God will place an event in his path. If this happens to be an encounter with Joe, then so be it. But what Rev C will remember most is the type of energy Joe reflected in the way he chose to handle the debate. If I was to turn around and be full on with you, would you remember what I said or how I treated you? If I was rude to you would it really matter to you if I was right? Or, to put it another way: a person has a browse through this forum, looking for God's love, instead finds argueing in a rather exagerated fashion. How will they view Christians? You have made an excellent point, and I could also use scriptures but I will not. You have enough intelligence to understand and to ask and to choose to disagree if your understanding is diferent. The kind of misuse I have seen of this scripture has broken churches, Christians, and especially, new Christians apart. It needs to be used very carefully with much wisdom and love. Again Tim,thank you for your thoughtful reply. I have already appreciated many of your notes. deb |
