    Born again or Not? What is the end result?

    Born of Water and of the Spirit... Natural birth - the waters break and are lost. Supernatural birth (being born again) - the living water of the Spirit fills and remains Revelation 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him...

    The Character of God - Reader Poll

    Ephesians 4:26 Be angry, and yet do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, This implies that anger can be righteous. Of note is that the false 'woke' god is never angry, so parents in our country are forbidden to smack their children.

    Is the Logos meaningful, or meaningless? - Depends on your view of Logos.

    I think my position is pretty similar to yours having deliberately and devotionally read scripture exclusively for over 5 years. Regarding the paragraph above, I think you are saying His 'human spirit' was perfect but only His resurrected body was perfect (yet baring the scars) I guess I don't...

    Is the Logos meaningful, or meaningless? - Depends on your view of Logos.

    I am with you on this... The is one issue that needs to be emphasised - His flesh was perfect and sinless but weak. He never had a currupted flesh like we do. Also he was indwelled by the Holy Spirit from conception.

    Is the Logos meaningful, or meaningless? - Depends on your view of Logos.

    No yes yes.. The point I make is that He is not subject to Human logic - He walks on water and turns it into wine.

    Seems strange that folks demand of God that His ways are logical when He says they are past finding out.

    What is the difference between the indwelling Spirit and the Baptism with the Holy Spirit?

    This is an interesting one... From Col 1: 12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light. 13 He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption, the...

    What is the difference between the indwelling Spirit and the Baptism with the Holy Spirit?

    Yes... it is mysterious to me as well, given what the politicians are doing to it... Here is an example... Govt gives 4M to indigenous group who use it to record the sounds of Whales off shore and playing the sounds to trees in the forrest to heal a serious tree disease. (sigh...)
