Bible Note: Stokey, now that this string has quieted down a bit, I wonder how you can possibly believe that God, who is Love, sent one of His creations--an angel, no less-- to die for us so that He wouldn't have to. Is that not utterly lame? Think of it... And that's the thrust of JW. Don't you see? Remember what He said? "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." Joh 15:13. That's the substance and miracle of His love, that He lay down His own life, not the life of some pre-planned, custom-built stand-in. God isn't so narrow, or so gutless. He formed us in His image then died for us--in pain and love--so that those who believe He did can be with Him forever. It's too much, really, too much to fathom. Stokey, hear what you're saying. Don't you realize how much you're missing with this foolishness of theirs? Get out of there and bring some with you. Colin. |
