AMPLIFIED 2015 | Luke 19:44 and they will level you to the ground, you [Jerusalem] and your children within you. They will not leave in you one stone on another, all because you did not [come progressively to] recognize [from observation and personal experience] the time of your visitation [when God was gracious toward you and offered you salvation]." |
Subject: The time of your visitation? |
Bible Note: No need to apologize Doc! I think I know you well enough now to know that even if that was your intent it was done out of love for a brother and to redirect where one might be barking up the wrong tree ;-) Trust me, I can take the redirection should I need it! I've learned to not only accept it from those I know to be my brothers and sisters in Christ but to expect it from time to time. I hang out with the old guys at church ;-) For some reason they have taken me in as one of there own and it's as if they our out to disciple me every step of the way. Guess what I'm learning the most from them??? Patients! That's a tuff one for me! I probably should have clarified my comment of assurance with "why I can assure you!" I'll do that now to clear the air. It is a great fear I have of misleading others and of not understanding it myself. I truly want to understand the Word myself but there is also a God given desire in me to share it with others. Have you ever had to deal with a burning passion you couldn't hold back yet have a constant fear of hurting someone else out of neglect or ignorance? I'm like a blind man walking through a mine field and there is an irresistible draw to the other side that I can't ignore and I'm constantly trying to get the other blind folks to follow me :-) I don't want to hurt them but I don't want them to miss out either. God bless you brother. I've learned much from you and others on this forum. Never hesitate to teach because I'm sure there are others learning from the folks on this forum as well. Steve |
