Subject: "Herodians" who were they? |
Bible Note: You are right I was vague but my intentions were not to offend nor have they ever been to offend. The other answers were also right and I should have stated my support. I do my best. What is the definitons of enlightened and, or ignorant fools? I don't understand because I have never called anyone by these words. I feel I have been attacked since I have been here because I have a different view. Fifty people can read the same chapter in the Bible and everyone have a different view. Some will agree with each other and some will not. Are all the ones that don't agree with the main group condemned to hell? This is what I hear in most beliefs and for this I have never found a church for myself. Everyone thinks they are saints and have the truth for this I disagree somewhat with all groups thus far. I believe that there is one right way for everyone on the earth but I have not seen this in the world. I am not a communist, or socialist nor do I agree with any labels. Am I wrong for my beliefs? Are men the judge of other men? I believe in Jesus but there seems to be many Jesus' depending on how you perceive Him and what you have read or heard. I read and study daily and search for Love and that is what I believe it is all about. Love is always growing and so does my understanding of the world around me as I keep learning and studying from the letter from the Father about His Son. I do not say what I know is absolute truth, but I will believe what I believe until someone can prove otherwise. I thought this is what faith is. Shouldn't we be trying to build faith? This is not an excuse for my responses, I am just trying to explain myself a litte, because I do care, not what man thinks about me, but what the Father thinks about my heart. I believe in Jesus and say everything in Love whether it seems mean or not it is because I care! If it seems like a curse, it is a warning and that is all, if it feels like a curse, perhaps the one with that feeling should step back and think about why it feels that way. If a man curses me I will shake the dust of because I know what is in my heart, and if it seems like rambling perhaps it is not understood. I care about all people and their well doing and condemn no one for their beliefs and I see no one belief as correct, because they all seem to condemn each other, and I do not think this is love. I would die for you and I don't know you, I would die for those that have been my biggest challengers and I don't know them either. I would not ask the same from you but I think you and others need to know my intents are sincere and I understand the enemy and how he has turned all of mankind against each other. And for this knowledge I will stand and do my best to understand Love and the will of my Father so we can all take of the corruptible and put on the uncorruptible.These are my opinions and I am but a small man and if I am wrong then I will answer the one that made me. But in the end we will all stand on our own before the judgement seat and I forgive all and myself, because I know I fall short but by faith and hope in Jesus I will stand. Peace in Faith, Hope and Passionate Love for Jesus and the Father, Casiv |
