Need of thinking Differently about "The Inheritance"

Historically speaking, how serious of a matter was it to refuse the Mercy extended of a conquering King?

I'm not as well read as I suppose I could be on this topic, yet in light of the thought of looking up the sharp edge of a sword being held at your throat trying to find deaths alternative appealing wouldn't prove to be difficult in light of the circumstances would it?

Outside the realm of simply Taking Land and Personal property from "Other" people, exactly why would the Prince of Peace, Lord of Lords & Kings of ALL Kings look to conquer anyone?

What do You say Faith is that has also come from the Throne of God? Also to mean the "Actions" in terms of a response initiated which then "Reflects" the Truth that Only Christ has and can Define same with clarity?

Is there a danger in terms of Altering the narrative? Failing to "See" or "Hear" becuase of everything we've NOT been made aware of?

As if somehow manipulating the outcome of God inspired "Context"? Well spoken and divinely inspired words which are then put into use/practice such as All, Everything, Always? Accompanied by words that follow the leading of the depth of words such as "Because" in terms of "Why" things are they "Way" they are?

Can you see the irony that might also define the request made of Philip to see the Father who is later task with the same request from others?

Has the body of Christ truly taken Inventory of the Power and "Reality" of the Promise of "Christ In You"?

John 14:6-11
Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him."

8 Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us."

Jesus answered: "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'?  Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you are not just my own. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. 11 Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves. NIV

John 12:20-21
Now there were some Greeks among those who went up to worship at the Feast. They came to Philip , who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, with a request. "Sir," they said, "we would like to see Jesus."NIV

It's easy to suggest AFTER the Facts are in, "It is what it is", yet what does that Truly Mean"? A convenient excuse to repeat and/or become the "Poster Child" of Insanity?

Rom 14:23
.......and everything that does not come from faith is sin . NIV

Acts 13:10
"You are a child of the devil and an enemy of everything that is right! NIV

1 John 3:8-10

8 He who does what is sinful is of the devil , because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil's work. 

No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God's seed remains in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God. This is how we know who the children of God are and who the children of the devil are: Anyone who does not do what is right is not a child of God; nor is anyone who does not love his brother. 

NIV

Job 28:12-13
"But where can wisdom be found? Where does understanding dwell?
Man does not comprehend its worth; it cannot be found in the land of the living. 
NIV

I invite you to sit and stare into these words "Where can wisdom be found? " to then reconsider Man alone does not comprehend their worth and how true it might prove to be based on the type of man made history that does repeat as though a "Mystery"?

More often simply words read and case closed when taken at "Street value" having been filed away in the nice to know folder in the BACK of our mind,  right?

 2 Cor 5:16-19
So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view . Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer.

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! 18 All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: NIV

Partaking of what has been "Freely" given also requires what? It's easy to sing songs concerning the Promises of God, yet how many have thoroughly examined the promises of God to be found only within the spirited words spoken about those same promises?

Too many "Individually" minded people today are being taught a type of "Freedom" in Christ to mean a type of Liberty to then Go and Live a life "Style" as if a child of the devil. As if to suggest exactly "How" to live in this same "Fashion"while in this world as if somehow "Making" a fashion statement" on behalf of those they also "Approve". sw

Matt 23:38-39
Look, your house is left to you desolate. 39 For I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'"  NIV

Matt 5:1-10
5:1 Now when he saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, and he began to teach them, saying:

3 "Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are those who mourn,
for they will be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they will see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called sons of God .
10 Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
NIV

Heb 1:5-14

5 For to which of the angels did God ever say,

"You are my Son; today I have become your Father "?

Or again,

"I will be his Father, and he will be my Son"?

And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says,

"Let all God's angels worship him." 

7 In speaking of the angels he says,

"He makes his angels winds, his servants flames of fire." 

8 But about the Son he says,

"Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever,
and righteousness will be the scepter of your kingdom.
9 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness;
therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions
by anointing you with the oil of joy." 

10 He also says,

"In the beginning, O Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth,
and the heavens are the work of your hands.
11 They will perish, but you remain;
they will all wear out like a garment.
12 You will roll them up like a robe; like a garment they will be changed.
But you remain the same, and your years will never end." 

13 To which of the angels did God ever say,

"Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet"?

14 Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?
NIV

Divided Governments, Kingdoms and Households

Mark 8:31-32
He then began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests and teachers of the law, and that he must be killed and after three days rise again. He spoke plainly about this, and Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him.
NIV

Within the mind of a believer in Christ, if God truly does have a complete understanding of the Power of Leadership, those who willingly follow same or NOT, why not simply go straight to those who did NOT and were not obeying the LAW God gave primarily to the Jews?

Who is there that can "Honestly" be blamed for ANYTHING supposedly done wrong if there is "No One" who has shown them the way in terms of having provided the example to follow?

There's nothing wrong with being "Blessed", yet how many chase blessings only for the sake of the "Blessing" verses following the person of (spirit) of Christ Jesus? Chasing blessings for "Fear" of somehow "Not Being Blessed"? Exactly what is Love that has been "Perfected" and "How does this same type of Love become a persons "First" nature in response to a often cruel and dying world?

At what point does celebrating the status of being considered a Son of God outweigh the mere pursuit of feeling no pain? Someone once said "Hurts so Good" but what does that mean in a divine sense? Especially in light of knowing that God works ALL things to the GOOD of those who "Love Him"?

Is there truly such a thing as the reward of the "Labor of Love"? Only You get to decide whether it truly is "Better to give than receive".....

1 Peter 2:21-25
21 To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example , that you should follow in his steps.

22 "He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in his mouth." 

23 When they hurled their insults at him, he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats. Instead, he entrusted himself to him who judges justly. He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.  For you were like sheep going astray, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls. NIV

John 13:15-17
I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. I tell you the truth, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them.
NIV

What happens to the likelihood of any creature when there is NO type of spiritually driven FEAR found in them? What happens to ANY creature who vacates some type of "Logic"? Do animals leave the "Burning" forest because of Logic or fear? Why Do certain species of animals not cross the otherwise invisible line drawn in the sand and cross breed? Something as simple as ducks and chickens who have yet to reproduce and make little, "Dickens"?

Do whales cross oceans in search of Nothing because they are without Fear or Logic? How many look and hope to serve God the Christ, verses serving their own cause and affections?

Man has taken strides in order to somehow make sense of Fight or Flight instinct(s) yet what about a mislead and/or misguided type of Hunger and Thirst? The same type of hunger and thirst only the spirit of God within a man can understand? As if a separate functionality or desire outside the daily plan he has for the sake of his physical Belly?

Just because mankind can dominate, conquer consume and possibly eat every other living creature(s), is there enough evidence to suggest there's nothing that can be gleaned  from their coexistence that's also applicable in some capacity to a life of Godliness? Presently considered inferior and as such because they've are being considered in the light or context of somehow being the main entre for "Dinner" instead?

Outside of a physical consideration how might a type of spiritual parent somehow 'Devour" the spiritual children that are "Born Of God"? In the opposite order worldly oriented parents will cherish the outer covering (Physical Address) of THEIR children, yet what about the Inner Portions" (Soul and/or Spirit)?

What and/or exactly who does it LOOK like to live for the sake of the body rather than for the sake of the inhabitant who supposedly also lives within us by the same type of Faith ONLY God can provide? Is it the outer skin that somehow proves God to be a liar or will it BE the spirit within a man that makes a lasting "Impression"?

Why are some ok with the thought of Christ leaving foot prints in the dirt or sand for others to follow, yet how long will mankind choose to ignore and fail to truly "BELIEVE man also came from DIRT as part of a core systemic belief ?

Who can explain exactly how the "Blood" of Abel somehow develops a voice that also cries out to God from the dust of the earth? The same type of voice that ONLY God is capable of hearing? Is the COMPLETED story that is OF and about Christ only to be considered POETIC?

Meaning that "Only" the Author was intended to interpret the narrative being Offered? And if Christ is NOT the only narrative, who then stands the risk of missing what God is saying as though Meaningful in this world whenever man does SEE things in this fashion?

2 Cor 5:16-17
So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!
NIV

Some will say "You've become so spiritually minded you've "Become" of no earthly Value"! My thoughts would be "Praise God"!

I suggest that because some choose to fail it is because we've failed because we are still seeing too many things and people from a worldly point of view and that to include the person Christ, How and Why He responds as He does.

Far too many have become of little value in terms of what GOOD God is otherwise willing to do THROUGH them. Surely God works ALL things to the GOOD of those who Love Him, yet God also must Prepare (Train) how to confront an/or do battle in the face of this thing many term "Defeat"! Some might even suggest "Fear"? Many forget the example God has set before our spiritual eyes in that He too as God created that same 1/3 of the angels who also fell from His Grace. What is a Godly perspective as though Gods greatest interest in terms of fruit that does and will "Last", namely the "Sons of God"?

Gal 2:19-21
For through the law I died to the law so that I might live for God. I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!
NIV

Some understand the value of a sacred Cow, yet how many have lost sight of a sacred Human Being, God created primarily as if an address to exhibit His Glory in as many different sets of circumstances man also finds himself in?

In terms of an outer skin or a outer covering is there never a price paid for these coverings? Why is it so difficult to translate what God did by way of providing SKINS in order to Cover ADAM and EVE? Surely Adam and Eve appreciated their nakedness being covered by way of another creature sacrificing their "hides", but what about the "inner portions" we see throughout history God savored?

Exactly how BOLD will any person become should their bellies be deprived of FOOD for an extended period of TIME? Does Time open doors? Does "Fear" alone open or close doors between this world and another realm? Exactly where and when does the righteously driven Logic steer the soul of a man Back to God?

Exactly where does a man discover the humble beginnings of a Godly type wisdom that will also lead him (man) as a spirit filled being back to the understanding of God as his heavenly Father?

Where do the humbled beginnings of a born again man find room in this world to grow in the Knowledge that is Of Christ which also thoroughly Expresses, "Christ In You" as a born AGAIN believer?

If all a person has to do is deny God as his mutual creator and deny there exist an otherwise invisible enemy, has he (man)  not already been Conquered? Exactly 'Who" sets the boundaries or standards for "Anything"? Why is it that Man can easily understand what to eat whenever he's hungry, and easily accept why man and beast share time, space and oxygen yet for what "Good" reason?

Under what premise though? Only God should be considered as though "Good"? The type of mapped out consideration that has NO "Beginning (Alpha/Omega) or End? Could the facts revolve around No Two logical motivated creatures CAN AGREE on everything"? To then try and extrapolate why God says ALL mankind have fallen short of the Glory of God?

Why is it easy to suggest WHY history does repeat itself without ALSO truthfully addressing ALL the reason(s) WHY?

Zech 1:2-6
"The LORD was very angry with your forefathers. 3 Therefore tell the people: This is what the LORD Almighty says: 'Return to me,' declares the LORD Almighty, 'and I will return to you,' says the LORD Almighty.

Do not be like your forefathers, to whom the earlier prophets proclaimed: This is what the LORD Almighty says: 'Turn from your evil ways and your evil practices.' But they would not listen or pay attention to me, declares the LORD. Where are your forefathers now? And the prophets, do they live forever? But did not my words and my decrees, which I commanded my servants the prophets, overtake your forefathers?

"Then they repented and said, 'The LORD Almighty has done to us what our ways and practices deserve, just as he determined to do.'"  NIV

Rom 1:20
For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities — his eternal power and divine nature — have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse NIV

Any type of Law that has NOT been combined with the type of FAITH God desires, what strength or Good could possibly forever come forth and remain intact having dispensed and upheld those same Laws?

Just because a New Drug does NOT kill EVERYONE within a square mile who takes that drug at what point does ONE PROVEN death override the mutual threat?

Without implementing and/or dispensation of the rule of Law how else might ANYONE come to know what is Right, Wrong and/or Mutually Harmful to ALL mankind and not only a few? Especially without having honestly weighed the core of everything assumed as a common GOOD

And if there ever were considered to be "Too" many laws put into place how long before everyone "Leaves Town"? Are there ANY such laws dispensed from the throne of God that were intended to be kept 'Secret'?

Will the "Plead" of ignorance suffice in the Day when everything has been exposed and made Known for all that it is or is NOT?

How much of what a person does while here will also amount to anything meaningful in the full scope of Eternity? Especially if some certain aspect of God was not the image of the one seen working "Through" that same person?

Does a person simply wake up ONE day and "Become" obedient in ALL their dealings? Does the imagery and evidence of Obesity simply fall away in 24 hours? Does a rebellious child simply decide one day they'll never act out AGAIN on such a compulsion?

Just think to what this world would be "like" if every "Pioneer" had been snuffed out before their accomplishments were recorded in TIME? Exactly where is the threshold of the Outer Limits of this world and who enforces them? Especially if a mans thoughts have NOT been framed by ALL that God says is Good?

2 Cor 4:1-4
Therefore, since through God's mercy we have this ministry, we do not lose heart. Rather, we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

NIV

Being made able should speak to grace, whereas the Grace that is of God has the tone of One who's never fearful of failing. How else will a man come to know why Love Never Fails as if discussing the God that is Love. sw

John 3:21
But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God ." NIV

What if you went to someone to testify for God as though you ARE His ambassador? What if you were also ask, "Who SENT You"? Exactly why would some reply any differently in terms of WHO sent who to whom in order to receive something of Greater value?

Is this NOT the same as being ask in a different manner, "by whose authority have you come? And what would "Shrinking" back or "Denying" Christ look like in moments or scenarios such as these? Are you the "Accuser" of those who do belong to God or the One whose credentials are being questioned?

What is truly at risk whenever a person doesn't KNOW beyond doubt why they do whatever it is they choose to do?

2 Cor 5:16-19
So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: NIV

Which Ones among this group of mere men would You say had also 'Misunderstood" what Resting on the Sabbath Day looked like according to their own God(s)? Especially if their "Understanding of the Gods "Laws" were ALL they were basing their individual judgement upon?

John 5:16-17
So, because Jesus was doing these things on the Sabbath, the Jews persecuted him. Jesus said to them, "My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I, too, am working."
NIV

John 7:38-39

Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him."  By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified. 

NIV

Whenever Jesus or anyone speaks today. what exactly do they 'Mean" if they are united in thought and deeds? What does anyone 'mean" without God as their witness who's also alive and active?

Without knowing exactly How Christ can be denied, who can also "Know" who or what a liar or a murderer is truly capable of without a believable record of their ACTS? Is there any REAL danger by way of claiming only "Part" of what Christ says is TRUE while denying the other portion(s)?

To be continued.................

Information is Truly what and to who?

When considering everything God has made and the things God hates, he's also made known to man why He as God despises anything He's made. sw

Ps 119:113
I hate double-minded men, but I love your law.
NIV

James 1:2-18
Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.

But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does.

The brother in humble circumstances ought to take pride in his high position. But the one who is rich should take pride in his low position, because he will pass away like a wild flower. For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant; its blossom falls and its beauty is destroyed. In the same way, the rich man will fade away even while he goes about his business.

Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.

When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.

Don't be deceived, my dear brothers. Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of first fruits of all he created.
NIV

The word "Insatiable" is a curious word to say the least. Especially while trying to describe the nature of a person who has an insatiable appetite or Lust for more of the "Same" thing? What would you conclude might lead most people to a specific type of thought, which then leads them into a thought pattern? As if a route taken that also leads to an expected or anticipated 'Ending"?

When mentioning a type of sword that also has an insatiable thirst for blood, what would you suggest a decided mind would visualize and "Why"?

When discussing only the nature or essence of a wide sweeping profile of any kind, what one thing remains missing in terms of specifically 'Nailing down" who or what exactly is being discussed within a fruitful conversation?

Whenever trying to convey a specific image or word picture in the mind of another, what would "You" conclude as to why being "Double Minded" might benefit or hinder this mindset in an otherwise healthy discourse?

How many people do You know well enough who are also willing to talk about ANYTHING?

How many are Willing to talk about nearly about anything except their core belief mechanism which shapes the very "Perception" (Outlook) of their Own person? Trying to Engage in a conversation with this type of mindset before it's been clearly revealed exactly 'Who" it is being discussed? As if somehow knowing you're about to pass judgment on a person who has no name of face? Some might even suggest the Head of a person that's "On the Chopping Block"?

Was the physical sword that directly killed Uriah ever found in the Hand(s) of David?

2 Sam 12:7-10
Then Nathan said to David, "You are the man! This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: 'I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you from the hand of Saul. I gave your master's house to you, and your master's wives into your arms. I gave you the house of Israel and Judah. And if all this had been too little, I would have given you even more. 

Why did you despise the word of the LORD by doing what is evil in his eyes? You struck down Uriah the Hittite with the sword and took his wife to be your own. You killed him with the sword of the Ammonites. Now, therefore, the sword will never depart from your house, because you despised me and took the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your own.' NIV

Truly what happens whenever we TAKE the words spoken to us somewhere they were NOT intended to Go? At what point might judging ourselves somehow cause us to JUSTIFY the same WRONG type of wrong doing(s) of others? Some might even suggest same as 'Sin" in the eyes of God, yet who are they as if "Alright" when You're the judging a matter?

If there is truly ever a lesson to be gleaned from mere words spoken (being presented) to us, who decides when those words are also speaking as if directly "To" our person or NOT? As if words spoken to someone other than ourselves? How much differently will we then judge the spirit of those same words once its been decided those words are not being aimed or directed towards our personage?

In terms of being direct, is there ever anything wrong should we think not only more Highly but also more lowly of ourselves than we ought to? Are there ever disadvantages when we try to consider more highly than we should? Are there advantages to thinking more Lowly of ourselves than we should in any given moment? Either position without also having already decided exactly what that is also WITHOUT a divine consideration as to WHO we truly are in the sight of God?

Especially whenever we conclude "Our' circumstances are beyond our control or NOT? Exactly when does anyone's set of momentary circumstances prove to mean MORE than WHO we are in those same moments? Which is worse forgetting who we claim we are 25% of the time or neglecting to remember who God says we are? All that we should be willing to learn to expect 100% of the time? That same 100% only BECAUSE of who we are and who it is that Spoke those WORDS?

Would you classify a double minded person as someone who's rarely decided? Someone who has a record of being Indecisive?  A well grounded person who would also be considered as someone with a Good foundation?  When was the last time you had your "Foundation Inspected"?

Why would any Foundation ever have need of being "Inspected'? To see if it can uphold the weight that's about to be placed upon it?

Maybe a person with principals or morals? Maybe a person who's always leery of any "Blunt" talking point in terms of where or what a specific type of conversation might lead to? The type of mindset  that primarily listens for the sake of intent and in turn how same might somehow affect their image or "Persona" should the conversation somehow take an abrupt turn SOUTH?

As if knowing you're talking to someone who's also a known defense 'Attorney"?

Would you consider the type of person who often sees the need to play the role of the devils "advocate" in ANY situation someone who's also "Double Minded"?

Is there ever a scenario where the devil or satan would have need of an advocate or a witness within a debate?

How important would you suggest an Innocent mind would prove itself to be within ANY type of conversation?

Taking the Lead (Part II)

What about things being spoken about the Grace that is of God and as such without correction for the sake what? A false encounter with supposed Grace?

Grace being spoken of and assumed extended under the ruse of the type of person who wants to be considered Graceful or Gracious? What about people thought and said to be using "Tactful" speech?

Tactician noun

1. a person who uses a carefully planned strategy to achieve a specific end.

Who in and Of this world also knows much more than they too have been told about an expected "End" without the consideration that also speaks to exactly Who it is that also validates ANY prophecy?

I can't speak for you, yet I've come to know better over the course of time many liars as well there's very little difference in the minds of most who do tell lies in terms of a "Scheme" verses a "Strategy".

These are only two of many words in our language often used interchangeably. Even further words used to somehow express what is rarely accepted as True or Absolute also relative to words being accepted at face value such as "Cause, Affect, Effect and other words such as "Because". Is it even possible words such as these can make an impression upon our minds without offering well thought word picture as an accompanying Image?

I can still remember only a couple of instances (the rest are blurred for some reason) when I as a child would ask my parents 'Why" they had laid down the "Law" in a certain fashion ONLY they seemed to understand? How many of you also met with the type response, "Because, I said so"! Because what?

They had  said so and that was supposed to clarify "Exactly" what? Just think today about whenever someone references the proverbial and otherwise mysterious "They" we continue to hear from in antiquity? As if the immediate talking point that "Was" in play had mysteriously reached an abrupt conclusion, yet based on WHAT Facts or truth?

Just think what something as simple as "God said SO" might have at least stirred within many today early on? Instead of it being the type of moment when what had seemed like an endless flow of words or word pictures which simply dried up like the some dead lake or sea?

Who's to say how anything will turn OUT if the right things HAD OF been said in times past? Doesn't opportunity also need to be given a CHANCE encounter in terms of the Birthing of something within us all that may have NOT found the opportunity to speak otherwise?

How exactly does a person speak out of Love to a separate person who rarely Trust? This same lack of Trust also due to what type of Reason? The "reason" leading up an otherwise lengthy explanation maybe? I'm of the opinion the word Reason in its more often accepted usage is FAR too ambiguous.

I'm one of those type thinkers who's of the mindset or "Stronghold" that holds OUT until satisfied with the explanation being offered.

In terms of trust or "Trusting" what someone has said, why the is there ever the need to have to reach back and borrow from the origin of the Greeks? As if in doing so will somehow hopefully "Retrace" the depth of meaning of whatever is being stated (has been said) is also the Gospel? Could you imagine debating with your Mom or Dad or school teacher growing up and trying to reference a Greek, German or Latin Lexicon or "Concordance"? Afterwards to be defined as a HEALTHY debate?

In my youth I would hear people suggesting in many different ways, "Mean what you say and say what you mean"! Sounds easy right, but what if you find yourself surrounded by opposition at nearly every turn having said what you do have to say as if "Meaningful"? The shorter version might be, "Be a man of your word(s)"! The same situations where you've stated your case and  still find yourself at odds with the One you're hoping to Convey a MEANINGFUL message to? Meaning , "Maybe" yet meaningful to who and "Why"?

Soon to discover you'll quite possibly end up lonely using this type of protocol as people today often thought to be good listeners are only listening intently for the sake of their own "Defense" or information that might prove to work out for their own benefit.

But what if the world around us would have YOU to believe YOU are the ONLY one who understands what You're saying? Isn't there some clinical diagnosis and acceptance of same for this condition? Some might even suggest a "Dis-ease" or mental Dis-order"? Maybe the word "Delusional" might seem "Fitting" to some?

What does being Culled Out mean to you? What does being considered the Called Out mean to others of a different persuasion?

If you were asked, "Are cultures or societies designed by way of forethought and planning or more by way of an evolutionary process where a group of people fly by the seat of their britches? Further to suggest an environment that's been "Intentionally" structured by way of having only one of two choices? Those two choices being to either "Accept" or "Reject" specific ideologies?

And if a persons answer were "Yes" to both or "Yes AND No" wouldn't that also qualify an "Ambiguous" response by definition? It would if "Yes and No" were the Only two acceptable responses, right?  And what might a melting Pot of idea's look like to You? Are we also talking about forging metal, Mulligan Stew or the strength and the combined strength of ALL that a person believes to be simultaneously TRUE?

Have you ever listened intently to or "Felt" the energy in the room when someone is considered being "Grilled" (Cross examined or Crucified) in a court of Law? What would you consider as the appropriate metaphor in terms of the source of heat? The anticipation of the hearers who are waiting to hear and judge for themselves what is True or Not? What about the visual affect of a word picture of someone being thrown into the Lions Den of Public Opinion?

Think of a Jury that's been pooled? What would you "Predict" the verdict would be if a murder trial jury had been pooled from a panel of nothing but "Convicted Murders" waiting on death row?

Much like what I call the cowards way out of a complicated conversation whenever a fruitless exercise reaches their conclusion by way of 'Agreeing" to "Disagree"? Some might suggest "Well at least they Tried", yet in my view the more accurate assessment would read, "Yes, you too were Tried, but you were also found guilty having failed at the task at hand!

How many have read or heard, "Love never fails"? Are those simple words to be considered false? What about the minds that try to "Interpret" them as God intended within any God Given moment?

In terms of ALL that a person also believes God to be, would Him being Truthful in every matter be at the Top of the lengthy list that might attempt to somehow express all that God is?

Exactly how does a person describe their home town as a fallen city to its inhabitants while trying not to blend in with the drunken crowd. sw

What comes to mind when you hear the word "Infrastructure"? I would like to think "Images" such as Roads, Water Systems, Electrical grids, Government buildings, Railways and Airports etc. All the above are tangible, things built with human hands which were intended at their "Introduction" to somehow serve the common "Good", right?

Basically once their practicality and day to day usefulness has been realized over the course of time these things seem to develop the tendency to somehow "Fade" into the background in the nearly blinding light of everything else that comes along as if New and Improved.

If Jesus were seen as in a New and Improved light today, what would that Light also look like as compared? In terms of applied proper context why would a reader of the passage below need the entire scenario somehow be "Recreated" before they 'Understood" the essence (heart) of what the author is suggesting? What if the one reading were to simply first "Answer the questions he's asking to then accept the response at"Face Value"?

Why do many criminals get away with crimes beyond being Tried? Because of the lack of Evidence? Or because no WITNESS can truly testify to the Crime because THEY weren't PHYSICALLY there meaning "Present"?

1 Cor 9:3-12
This is my defense to those who sit in judgment on me. 4 Don't we have the right to food and drink? Don't we have the right to take a believing wife along with us, as do the other apostles and the Lord's brothers and Cephas? Or is it only I and Barnabas who must work for a living? 

Who serves as a soldier at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat of its grapes? Who tends a flock and does not drink of the milk? 8 Do I say this merely from a human point of view ? Doesn't the Law say the same thing? 

For it is written in the Law of Moses: "Do not muzzle an ox while it is treading out the grain." Is it about oxen that God is concerned? 

Surely he says this for us, doesn't he? Yes, this was written for us, because when the plowman plows and the thresher threshes, they ought to do so in the hope of sharing in the harvest. If we have sown spiritual seed among you, is it too much if we reap a material harvest from you? 12 If others have this right of support from you, shouldn't we have it all the more? 
NIV

Have you ever allowed your self to be questioned at Length about "Any" talking point to the point of fatigue?  How about questions about God or the One God sent to mankind with a specific and intentional message? To then add to that thought a message sent that is far "Beyond Questioning"? Especially when considering exactly who it is that's being asked the question?

Have you ever heard the phrase used when a topic has been "Talked to Death"? To further suggest a Dead Topic"? Wouldn't it also be interesting to reach an "Absolute" understanding as to why anyone would NOT enjoy talking to other people? Especially if you like myself are the type who chooses to believe there is a "Reason" for everything as if simultaneously discussing different "Seasons"?

What if and whenever the spirit of God were Truly being discussed, someone told you there are "Seasons" of God? One of those seasons being the season of His "Mercy"? Is there a difference between the two without "Outside" input?

People will more often talk more about whatever it is they have a direct "Interest" in, right? Would it also be a safe assumption to consider what most people are NOT interested in Talking about are topics that easily "Stir Up" mixed emotions?

Have you ever considered mixed emotions as you might a strong mixed 'Drink"? I suppose if there are those who have been more wonderfully saved than others, but what if talking about mixed drink the person you're talking to had NEVER been drunk? Never tasted or even smelled Alcohol or other mind altering substances?

Would this make and/or qualify them as if closed minded or simply someone thought to have made NOTHING but "Good" decisions to date?

I remember having a conversation with a wise man about people in general terms. As do most people we did the dance with words until the conversation reached a certain "Pitch". I could tell he wanted to divert the conversation.

He tried by stating, "I Love people and I Love conversing, yet there are three type of personalities I will NOT debate anything meaningful with and in no particular order they would be Preachers, Politicians, Policeman or Painters.

I was a little taken back at first because this brush stroke seemed a little broad and had a slightly rebellious tone in terms of my understanding of authority. The one personality mentioned that struck me as odd was the Painter. I told this man I can kind of understand the first 3 in terms of making a connection, but why the "Painter"?

He paused and said with an odd grin, "Honestly, it's very simple because every painter I've "Personally" had dealings with at the "End" of the day turned out to be a "Drunk"!

I then asked Him why he thought ALL painters were drunks? He said "Well I don't, but what I do know is that until I meet one that's not, why should I doubt "My" theory"!

I leave you to decide what an "Open Ended" conversation sounds like and how same might somehow affect others with this one question, 'Why does anyone "Need" closure if they're truly always searching for the Truth with all of their heart mind soul and strength?

Hab 2:12-16
Woe to him who builds a city with bloodshed and establishes a town by crime!
Has not the LORD Almighty determined that the people's labor is only fuel for the fire,
that the nations exhaust themselves for nothing?
14 For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD,
as the waters cover the sea.

"Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbors, pouring it from the wineskin till they are drunk,
so that he can gaze on their naked bodies. You will be filled with shame instead of glory. Now it is your turn! Drink and be exposed!

The cup from the LORD's right hand is coming around to you,
and disgrace will cover your glory. NIV

Taking the Lead

For what its worth I met up with a new word recently, "Illocutionary". Not only that but according to those who assume they make the rules for interpretation there are several different type actions that are also relative to gaining a better understanding of this particular word and it many applications.

For the sake of "Effectual" communication exactly how satisfied would you consider most people are without added body gesturing whenever they speak? Picture a person with the hands and feet bound trying to convey a specific thought (Image)? What can be said without the complementary use of their eyes, limbs and/or Body? What could also be said without finding one has need of somehow borrowing from something someone else has already supposedly spoken and MADE clear?

That is also to suggest without the need for a "Jury" or PUBLIC opinion weighing In" on the matter in terms of hoping to TIP the scales?

And if a person were trying to consider the voice of God as if  "The" talking "Head" that was also intended to be heard far above "All" others? The type of 'Sounding" source that has no waiving extremities that might otherwise add to or take away from the hearers focus? Simply put what was said that also came from THE Mouth of this HEAD is ALL there is to consider?

As if stripping the pre-fix (word) "Art" from the spelled out enunciation "Articulate"?  Having done so what exactly remains? Do these type of words or sounds have any stand alone value in Modern day English language? What about the difference between Abram and Abra-ham?

Is it 'Speech" alone or the "Ability" to speak that is truly a type of ART? What of the claim to fame that suggest a Creator of ALL things who simply SPOKE things into their varied states of (manifestation) Existence? Wouldn't it depend on what an "Individual" is capable of accomplishing in terms of being the One who's at the "Helm" in the proverbial "Wheel House"?

Have you ever truly traced out the origin of the metaphor in terms of the "Hand" that is also "Writing on the Wall"? Who exactly did such a hand belong to? The hand that pierced the veil of the otherwise unknown (yet to BE realized)? Exactly how would Being the Oldest Version of ANYTHING also PROVE to be the very source of that same thing?

Remember the show "Adams Family"? Exactly who was Adam? Remember cousin "IT"? What about the one (hand) that was named and summoned by way of being called "THING"? Who exactly COULD call them anything different  if they were the originals version of those same things?

The English language is one of the most ambiguous known to man. I can only assume the "Real Reason", yet what would you and I discover without the Greeks of antiquity somehow weighing in as if those who also have the "Final say"? Is there any real hope of conveying what our minds eye can see without finding our type of person having to borrow from an Unknown Source that might have also expired?

What about the more recently adopted acronym "AI" today (Art-ificial Intelligence)? Who used to be our cultures well respected go to source of collected (Collated) wisdom? Especially in terms of the ROOT words societies commonly use in order to Translate idioms, philosophy, Origins and/or theories? Webster's? Britannica? National Geo-graphic or TIME magazine"?

Is Cortona going be the replacement Voice of  "Reason? Is it possible the voice of LOGIC or REASON can TRULY be mapped out?

In biblical terms, who was said to be the Root (vine) and who was said to be the Branches and more importantly WHY? Why is IT some will allow God to explain the Tree and the roots of that same tree in search of nutrients, yet the same individuals will NOT allow that same creator (God) to explain the very NATURE of the 'Mankind"?

Rom 1:19-20
 20 For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities — his eternal power and divine nature — have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse . 
NIV

Who can explain how God who is also Spirit can be in ALL and through ALL and by Him were ALL things created without also considering He spoke same into existence. sw

Not only are there far too many miscommunication this side of mind reading, but in large part due to what? Assumptions, Assertions, misguided Hope and Repetitious acceptance (Traditions) in terms of what we think people are trying to say? Traditional speech that has somehow morphed into a type of "Doctrine" we hear quite often? Heard so OFTEN we begin to believe what we hear because we DO hear same so often?

What if the Label or Name, "Religion" were being used as nothing more than a dis-tractor? The type of distraction that has done nothing more than get in the way of the PERSON better Known as Jesus the CHRIST? As if the ONE who was "Sent of God"? The ONLY faithful messenger who's History is EVERYTHING His NAME says it Is?

How difficult is it to honestly "Explain" away anything that took place in the "Past" without first having to justify your own participation. sw 

Whether a person is found to be difficult or different, hows does either justify the net results of their actions to date once meeting face to face with the "Spirit of Truth" that only labors for the benefit of One. sw

If "Words" were truly considered to be a gift from God, how would the value of those words go on to "Prove" their worth. sw

How does a man become bored with anything? That to include gifts from God in the form of a wife that's true and children who anxiously look forward to a life that's been filled with the reward of all that He proved capable of teaching them. sw

In light of the ultimate example, who within a household has the toughest act to follow when opposed at nearly every turn of events. sw

Why is anything considered to be "Over Rated" without first having drawn a comparison. sw

Just think of what was lost by way of a son who was willing to trade his inheritance for a bowl of stew or a few moments of sexual gratification that's expected to last a life time. sw

There is a gift that can ruin the man who has not been taught how or why he should "Receive" the lasting benefits of same. sw

The fastest way for a man to not only scorn a woman, but also script a large portion of his future is to treat her as if some "Thing" that can be easily replaced and forgotten. sw

There's an Ugly rumor making its rounds that suggest children should be seen and NOT heard. Wisdom might suggest otherwise not only the importance of what comes from the Mouths of Babes but the type of spirit that can see the true value of same in the very moments it has chosen to escape their lips. sw

Could the real reason for the odd number senses be there's never a tie once he's truly allowed all 5 to weigh in and truly "Evaluate" a matter. sw

At what "Point" is the direction of a man confused by way of a Tie Vote aimlessly cast. sw

What type of man is able to discern the difference between the "Smell" of Life and Death having truly heard someone speak. sw

The one thing mankind to date has NOT proved capable factoring in his measurement of time is the required commitment to same. Instead he's finds comfort in the process of elimination. sw

It's not hard to find a lost soul. Look for the man whose lost his farm, family and friends whose future hope was centered all the above. sw

If what every man is looking for were to be found between two book Ends, shouldn't he be more concerned with what happens within the pages of those two books that were written with Him in the mind of the author. sw

If the apple of a mans eye is only but a reflection of something that was able to momentarily capture his attention, how soon will he become distracted and see things differently. sw

Never taking your eyes off the Prize of Christ will prove be more than a forest full of fruit bearing Trees. sw

There's more to "Denial" than refusing to meet harmoniously with the 5 natural senses. sw

Rom 1:18-20
The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.

NIV

Government Issue (Part 2)

What is to suggest God is in "CONTROL"? To also consider this same God who tells mankind repeatedly throughout each generation there is nothing NEW under the Sun? The same God who makes mention of His own person as the One  Who also does NOT change?

Could such a claim also suggest a sense of awareness that has achieved 'Absolute Spiritual Maturity"? Many are claiming to Know what Love is, yet how many have fallen short in their failure to "Come" to God so that they might "Know" Him and the One He has sent more completely each and every second God chooses to add to their present state of existence? That to include however else such an existence has not only manifested, but also allowed for a righteous explanation of same?

1 John 4:8-10
Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love . This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.
NIV

Truly what is it to declare, claim and accept being "Imperfect"? What if Moses refused to Climb the Mountain? What if Jesus refused to climb to the top of the trash heap strategically situated outside the city? What if the Apostle Paul refused to be made a new man after being made blind? WHat if many others refused to GO whenever they heard the words from they believed to be from God that TOLD them to GO?

Does this question only have authority over those who "Do Believe" not only that God exist, but also that God is Right All the Time? When the Son of God was considered a visitor here on earth also as a child in body and in the spirit of His mind, did he also KNOW everything he would also "eventually" have need of knowing upon His entry into this world?

Nothing to gain or expound upon as if discussing every aspect of his being? The word of God suggest that He "Grew" in many ways, so if there is no room for growth what might this also suggest?

Have you ever considered why devout believer's who not only claim to be In Christ, but Christ also in them also have need of claiming and holding onto their claim of being "Imperfect"? Many today understand DNA in one fashion, yet they'll also consistently insist upon having zero to very little regard along the lines of what they believe spiritually that also might express some degree of Christ who is Living within their God given collective sense of representation.

Have you ever wondered what is in play when a child who has One white parent and One black parent who then supposedly "Grows Up"? Some ONE who supposedly grows up and grows more affectionate towards the bias of one ethnic group above and beyond the other? Having also somehow and some "Way" become convinced they've also made a 'Clear" and "Conscious" choice in doing so?

John 6:63-64
The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life. Yet there are some of you who do not believe.
NIV

Under the clear (Transparent) terms of what God considers to have been MADE in His likeness, how important do His words play OUT Their assigned role as to what the flesh also holds in store for those who believe in Him?

What happens to any person whenever the flesh takes over and becomes WHO a person is verse WHERE a person is temporarily Located? As if talking ONLY about an address? Exactly how would you attempt to SERIOUSLY sit and reason with a persons once you're convinced there's "No One at Home"?

It's easy for some super charged spiritualist to suggest where ever there body is there they are Too, yet who has NOT become convinced of the promise that wherever Christ Is there you are also?

What if "Unbelief" were a considered a Place or maybe more accurately stated as an ADDRESS? What if "Maturation" were thought of as a change of Address?

Have you ever tried to compel someone they need to make a change, yet every tactic or approach you've been met with the "Unwilling Gate Keeper" or "Door Man"who refuses to let you in for whatever reason?

I invite you to read the following as a believer. When you read also consider what many refuse to let go of in terms of their undeniable NEED to never forget their IMPERFECTION they insist upon also being the Proud Owner of same?

Many claim that perfection has come in the form of Gods word. If this is the eaxct same perfection God says it is, why aren't men claiming to have been made "Perfect? Clearly what exactly do the words of God say will happen when perfection comes? What do Gods words say will happen to "Imperfection"? Does Imperfection"remain"? Is perfection in WHOLE or in PART? Does it go away for a while and then Come back?

When only God is True and every man is held up to the candle light that determines "Imperfection" what does God say happens to Imperfection? It "Disappears"!

If this is True what then SHOULD this also suggest in terms of ALL else that is still needed today God originally gave to the Body of Christ? Given of God for the sake of what TYPE of reasoning? In order for this assessment to be fulfilled as if a TRUE prophecy of God that will come to PASS?

Has Prophecy failed? Wouldn't that also depend upon who's speaking TODAY? I would suspect the prophesies of men have failed, yet NOT the words of God He also testifies to are also His Spirit? When a man says Today, is this the same "Today" that is also the same DAY God is speaking of Prophetically? As if those doing the speaking are also speaking the Oracles spoken of God?

Have tongues been stilled? Have the tongues that should be speaking what God is still saying to mankind been stilled? Obviously there are still MANY wagging tongues saying many DIFFERENT things as though God spoke same? Who's lying and who's speaking the Truth in terms of ALL that Love declares HE is if Imperfection truly does DISAPPEAR upon the mere arrival of What God says is Prefect?

Truly WHAT and/or WHO have You believed? What do You believe has also Failed? Especially when you suggest You also Believe that God is LOVE?

Is the word of God only a Mirror or is it His spirit speaking what men have need of "Knowing" in our poor attempts at remaining "Mindful" of ALL that He is in His otherwise understood "Physical" absence?

1 Cor 13:8-12
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears.

When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child , I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
NIV

Does it matter who says what or how if this person is only searching for ALL that is "True"~ sw

Why is it that only preachers are assumed to be the teachers of this world? The same ones who are convinced they too Know what foolishness sounds like in the ears of the "Hearer". sw

If retaining the right to choose who and what to believe also directly affected life outcome, who then also chose wisely. sw

In terms of who the Fathers, Patriarchs or Parental figure's are as if the witness of ones specific Faith, who then has lead "Way" the Christ said He followed while also expressing and claiming to be the One who's "In Control". sw

 Deut 30:19-20
This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death , blessings and curses. Now choose life , so that you and your children may live and that you may love the LORD your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the LORD is your life, and he will give you many years in the land he swore to give to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
NIV

1 Cor 1:21-22
For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. NIV

What are the rebels of "This World" truly in control of this time or ANY time. sw


Matt 12:35-37
A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.

But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

KJV

John 14:15-21
"If you love me , you will obey what I command. 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever- the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you. I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you. Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show myself to him."  
NIV

Have you ever stopped to consider exactly who it is that's helping You determine the true character of God? And if you did "Stop" what exactly did you have to "Stop" doing so you could "Honestly Reconsider"?

The true character and nature of God as if same has been lost in the midst of mass numbers who are not only trying to chose  who to believe, but who they should continually "Follow" beyond that initial point? Individuals" who are choosing who they are to follow yet based on what if not "Who theses leaders insist they TOO are following"? And when something does happen that wass intended of God to prove someone is NOT Following Christ, who then do the said follower turn to if NOT back to the same type individuals or someone just "Like" them?

Rom 15:5-6
May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus, so that with one heart and mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
NIV

Who they say they are usually evidenced by way of somehow trying to disprove certain character qualities only God is capable of validating or NOT?

Wait a minute I THOUGHT God said He so loved the WORLD? The same world He gave His one and Only son to "Die For"? What happens when a person truly takes inventory of their chosen words spoken?

James 4:4-6
Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. Or do you think Scripture says without reason that the spirit he caused to live in us envies intensely? But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says:

"God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." 
NIV

Is there any danger in quoting bible scripture all the time? Quoting scripture as if exactly what to do in the moment has been recorded verbatim?

Have you ever sat and deeply considered for more than a couple of minutes what being "In Agreement" walks and talks like in the presence of God? As if NO WHERE truly does NOT exist in the full scope of of ALL that God is also aware of?

If this were true, how then would you find the words that are said to be from the heart and mouth of God in that "Anything that is NOT of faith is to be considered as Sin"?

If someone were to ask You in the middle of You offering them Your personal Testimony about The God and creator of ALL mankind, "What exactly do You Believe to be true about Your God? To then consider how most people have been trained to think before speaking about the dynamics and potential power of "Projection"?

I found this brief on Wiki and it seemed relative to my own understanding of whenever someone is considered to be "Projecting" themselves upon another person. Some might even suggest this same practice as "Judging" others?

It means that, rather than picking up on how you actually are feeling, the other party prematurely assumes to understand how you're feeling, based on their own machinations. It usually indicates that someone is self-absorbed for the moment, if someone is projecting their feelings onto you.

Have you ever stopped to "Reconsider" what was trying to take up residency in the minds of those who were confronting Jesus whenever he spoke of or about God? As if speaking on Gods behalf and/or in Gods "Stead"?

Did Jesus "Ever" take a break, vacation or "Punch" out on the divine "Time" clock while here?

John 5:18
For this reason the Jews tried all the harder to kill him; not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God. NIV

Was Jesus projecting His person on God OR these particular men? Was Jesus Judging them by way of what He was doing? Some might ask "How is anyone to know"? What if believers were to "Allow" God to be true in ALL that He does say?

In terms of a righteous question asked, "Is there a true difference between Judging and making a decision "About" someone, a specific set of circumstances or "Scenario"? As if talking about a "Scene" taken or borrowed from a "Movie'?

John 8:15-18
You judge by human standards; I pass judgment on no one. But if I do judge , my decisions are right, because I am not alone. I stand with the Father, who sent me. In your own Law it is written that the testimony of two men is valid. I am one who testifies for myself; my other witness is the Father, who sent me."  
NIV

What happens to the persona of Christ should He only be seen from the perspective of this world? And if the same question were being asked of you, how would YOU respond while claiming the spirit of Christ within You while also denying having been Made Perfect by way of His spirit?

Is it all (True Life) ONLY a matter of knowing certain or factual considerations or NOT or would true life be more accurately expressed by way of truly Knowing the Person of God? In terms of the "Right Answer" would You find yourself in agreement if true life were ONLY God who is the ONLY one who has the capacity and authority to answer such a question?

Many today seem to base their opinion of authority on whether or Not there's any other way around a matter or not. What do you have to say as if You are In control of what Your Mind suggest?

Is there a difference between Knowing and Truly "Believing" what God has said the WAY God defines both? Is faith only based on what you Know or who it is that also proves they "Know You"?
