    concupiscentia

    Discipleship is not based on the personal opinions of those imagining that they are engaged in original thinking... Perish that thought to the privy! But instead is based on obedience to Christ... Saul, Saul... Why persecutesth thou Me? Did Saul ever so much as ruffle even a hair on...

    He commanded Christ to preach to the Jews... He pulled an Adam and hid in the belly of the ship... Jonah was a Servant of God - And his disobedience was a sign for the Jews... Israel disobeyed and was destroyed... He knew it wasn't God... That was when he knew he was wrong...

    The works referred to here are the works of the Law... And the passage affirms God's Foreknowledge, and not His preference for some rather than others... Bod fore-knows their deeds, you see... He is not the Cause of evil in Esau... The tenses God uses are past-futures - Esau whom I hated has...

    IS GOD A RESPECTER OF PERSONS?

    "I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance..." Some hear this Call and repent... Some hear it and do not repent... All are sinners... Who determines who repent and who do not? OR... Is God a respecter of persons and preselects some persons but not others to repent when He...

    Thank you for your uplifting sentiments, Menno... Without your generous words... How could we possibly know that God is Love? "Saul, Saul - Why persecuteth thou Me?" Is Christ Himself persecuted when members of His Body, His Ekklesia, is murdered? Arsenios
