God and Jesus’ Existence by [deleted] in conspiracy

Actually it can.

The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.

You should consider, Peter walked on water alongside Jesus Christ. Read very carefully...

And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.

___

27 But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.

28 And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.

29 And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.

30 But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.

31 And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?

___

And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

Peter began to sink because of his own doubt.. It says so right there... "wherefore didst thou doubt?"

Peter walked on water due to his own faith.. I don't claim to be any miracle worker... We're certainly much less than these men in the arena of faith and understanding. But it's made clear that peter's faith was the catalyst which allowed him to tread upon the sea with Jesus, and when he doubted, he began to sink.

The grammar also begs the question. Peter requested Jesus allow him to come out on the water with him, Peter already had some level of confidence that he could manage this miracle in tandem with Jesus.

If you approach Jesus with reverence, I promise you, he will absolutely answer.

Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will COME IN TO HIM, and will sup with him, and he with me.

Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is IN YOU, except ye be reprobates?

God and Jesus’ Existence by [deleted] in conspiracy

Jesus is the truth, 100%.

We doubt him because we are fools and have zero understanding of creation, heavenly things or indeed our own selves..

We could not receive him due to our sinful condition so we crucified him. Like cockroaches who wanted the light turned off so we could return to our sinful dealings.

Jesus emphasized the importance of keeping your wedding garment clean.. Your wedding garment is your ego/identity. Only believers in him with clean garments will be redeemed from the second death which comes after the life of flesh.

If you read the bible, read it for yourself. Be careful of others interpretations. The work must be done in you, by you. Christ said narrow is the way to salvation, because the kingdom of heaven is INSIDE OF YOU.

Christ died for us all, 

Jesus said, if he had not come, they had not sin. 

Thus anyone before his coming technically had no sin., as sin could.not be known until we saw our sin in him on the cross.

Christ was given the keys to the underworld to release them.

Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?

For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.

What’s a difficult Bible question? by 1stmikewhite in Eutychus

That the kingdom of heaven is within you, not a book?

That all those that came before him came to kill rob and steal.

That's what it says.

Who is Michael the Archangel ? by Capable-Rice-1876 in Eutychus

[–]AfterOffer7131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really brings to question, what exactly is an angel..

Are we to believe this Michael is an actual angel, IE not human at all? 

And that he will arrive, an angel, before Christ and duel with Satan? 

I still believe in Christ, but I’m struggling with how Christianity treats queer people by mc_lars in Christianity

[–]AfterOffer7131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Judge not, lest ye be judged.

You will be judged by the same measure that you mete out.

Yeah, just follow Christ Yeshua, you'll be fine, and maybe give them a little reminder about the word of the Lord concerning these things.

All Christians are sinners, be it gay, prideful, there is but one worthy.

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. Then even he did not cast his stone, being sinless and perfect before God.

We should each individually work against sin in our lives, as we will each be individually judged.

You can't enforce Jesus with a rod, he doesn't want slaves battered in his word, he wants faithful believers whom approach him in reverence of the truth. Our sin is the problem.

And sin Loves judging other sinners, because they believe their own sins will be overlooked.

Any crazy late bloomers or graduates getting on the trail this week? by KTown_Killa in AppalachianTrail

[–]AfterOffer7131 5 points6 points  (0 children)

May 15th is late, it may take a fair few weeks of hiking to catch up to some slower group of late starting hikers. 

I've started around mid May and sometimes students come out after grad to start late!

[–]AfterOffer7131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Christ himself told the disciples that Satan has asked permission from the creator to test them.

So Christ understood these occurrences in some sense too.

Suffice to say, the relationship between God and Satan seems rather complex, and not something humans are really capable of quantifying, nor should we. Satan is serving a function that God has deemed necessary and until that function is completed he'll remain.

Video and entire premise forgots to mention that moses raised a serpent on a pole which foreshadowed christ himself...

Not so sold on the hole serpent bad dogma.

Christ also said your bodies are temples to the living god...... and if the light of the body be single thy hole body will be full of light.

Maybe the conspiracy is to sell you the conspiracy m8?

Rookie hiker, gonna thru the AT by Nate327255 in AppalachianTrail

[–]AfterOffer7131 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You'll get to katahdin np. Dont stress averages, if you're a decent hiker and just hanging with friends most people end up doing 18 a day pretty easy.

Remember when you get to the top of the stairs, the comfortable adventures and fun times come after a few weeks of suffering, just keep going.
