Bible Note: I wasn't so cheerful yesterday. I blasted Kalos. Well, it was a blast for me anyway. I just love God and I want to share it with everyone. When people try to hoard it to themselves or seem to be putting conditions on it, declaring God has put these conditions on it--not them, oh no, never them!, that's one of the few things that can still get me really mad. (And me a redhead who used to have the temper stereotyped to redheads!) I suppose I should post and apologize to Kalos. But I'm not going to. If God wants me to, He can make me. I know He will if that's what He wants. There are some on this forum that would use that statement to reinforce their 'no free will' arguments, but I don't buy that either. I just figure He is rather like my young children. When they want me to do something, they just don't stop bothering me about it until my "no" turns into an "I don't know", then into a "maybe", and finally an "okay, fine!" That's the way He works on me anyway. I figure He's just teaching me the way I should work with Him. Persistently. And if anyone wants to hammer me on that one I will direct you to the OT, Abraham pleading for Sodom and Gommorah, and to keep things equal, also to the NT, where the woman is haranging Jesus about saving her daughter from demons. He even calls her a dog and she just keeps at Him. Persistance. God wants it from us. Hmm. Wonder how I got to that from Paul. Thanks for your kind post. God Bless, Melanie |
