May the Lord Bless you more than anyone at this forum.

Thank you for sharing. The 18 different translations I use, including the Tanakh, say otherwise. I wish you the best.

I didn't read your post. The reason for this is that I do not have a spirit of arguing within me. If you can change your attitude, which would be to be Christian, I would be happy to communicate with you. May the Lord grant you the most amazing of Blessings.

There are layers of messages within the Bible. The first layer is what any human being can memorize from Scripture. But those memorized Words may or may not mean what we think they mean. And this is precisely why I do not consult commentaries unless absolutely necessary. I would rather peruse 15...

Are you talking about the Bible? As in, the 66 Book . . . Bible?

What you just wrote was like reading my native language after being in a forgein country for ten years. God tells us to go to the blind, poor, oppressed, and sick. Why? Because they know they're sick and need a healer. This is the Purpose of Christ according to John 9:39-41. This is why Jesus...

My friend, your lack of Understanding and Knowledge of the Bible as a whole would be too tiresome for me to break through, considering your aggressive spirit. If your eyes and ears weren't shut, I'd love to work with you. I wish you the best.

It's not what I believe. It's what I can copy and paste. Silly thing is, people usually reject Scripture. Isn't that sumthin? Christians . . . rejecting Scripture. It happens every day that I attempt to communicate with one.

Scouring the Bible from Genesis to Revelation multiple times, it is evident that humans possess nothing more than a limited sense of freewill. Could you give me an example of how, if I had the Power, to violate your sense of free will. No one has given an example thus far. Thanks!

It's probably me, but I'm not getting much out of that.

Actually, I've been saying that the Bible consistently reports that God Enables His Elect to obey Him. Sweet. :)

I hear you. The things I offer are basically copy and paste from the Bible. I'm just reporting what my translations say. Say, could you do me a huge favor and give me an example of what it would be like if someone were to violate your sense of free will. Thanks!

I'm not here to play games. I wish you the very best.

Power. The answer to your question is Power. Of all things in the Bible that we are to glean, it should be the Power of God. Why? Because proper fear of the Lord leads to Understanding, Knowledge, and Wisdom. Without fear of the Lord, we cannot have the perspective God wants us to have.

The Bible is crystal clear: God hardened Pharaoh's heart so that the Glory of God would be made known. Romans 9:17-18 NLT - "For the Scriptures say that God told Pharaoh, "I have appointed you for the very purpose of displaying my power in you and to spread my fame throughout the earth." So you...
