    Hey folks. Nothing new under His sun any day. I’m trying to enjoy and thank God in so many ways but I often fail by my own foolishness

    • I know He thinks of me as His Own Son because God loves all of His children despite our faults. And sin is my own fault.
      • How good God is to me makes me feel great, but I feel bad for awhile and them believe and know He does love everyone on earth and I try hard to remember just that.
        • What I really. Think is we ould all love to please God when we do wrong and get a 2nd chance and then another 2nd chance etc and think it hurts me to make dad feel bad because I’m ashamed when I do it then do it again. I make myself sick
          • All I can say is that God is more gracious than I often show and I’m grateful to Him for it
            • I certainly don’t want to keep sinning because it’s like saying I’m sorry for spitting on my Father (or like earthly dad,) It’s like because I don’t see Him He’s not really there
              • Then, I know since He loves all mankind the same we’ve all sinned and need His mercy when we treat His children badly. God is saddened by this, not angry.
                • When I look at Job he didn’t do anything wrong, except please God. But I think the lesson His loving Father was teaching him was that man never changes. Evil men hurt their own brothers who maybe did nothing ti them.
                  • I look at fights in “my own” family (not Gods’ own Family which includes everyone)……. Then watch people in Gaza and Ukraine and think “Hiw stupid are “those” people?
                    • Then Jesus doesn’t answer because HE is speaking, I’m not listening.
                      • I think I might have posted in the wrong persons conversation. If I did I apologize. I’m learning to navigate and I learn sow
                        • I don’t know how to edit misspelling I make in my posts. learn [b][u] I LEARN SLOW.[/b][/u] and that frustrates me, because I think I was taught things about God that aren’t true. I see life as true or false. I might be right or wrong, laugh at sin, “Cmon’down Jesus…hahaha”, or cry real tears for a genuine reason, but misunderstand because “I’m not wearing Jibs’ shoes.” God has His own reason so who the hell am I?”
                          Not even out meek Savior didn’t treat any of us like the Lion He could be.
                          So really who does any man on earth think he is??????
                          • I think every trouble on earth happened because,
                            And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
                            When I read this I see Eve as someone like a child not knowing right from wrong and simply being
                            lied to by an older person. That makes sense to me.
                            • Then I was taught in church how Eve and Adam legit kicked out of Eden and lost all knowledge of God and all of us did too. And now we’re all damned whether we teach our children otherwise.

                              None of that bs is ever taught in Gods’ word that I can see.
                              What I see when I read Genesis Hods’ words to Moses that God told out Mother it would be more painful now to have kids because when we disobey God that’s what happens. I hear our Father telling His child…”the mother of all of us” to teach her children well…that they may grow by. I think I hear Adam the ground outside the garden is more difficult to till, so Adam would sweat more, but why is that hard to understand?
                              Because I believed nonsense for 4o years walking around in circles in a desert believing lies about God that aren’t true.

                              • Maybe I should just believe I was made in Gods’ Image, instead of “evolved… which means
                                The only “evolution I can see in Genesis is by our Creator, His Spirit And His Word.. and now I feel like I’m seeing all of us look like animals so I’m going with the Bible. If others want to remember all fun they had as kids swimming in primordial goo, maybe they should re-fill the pool and make a synchronized swimming event in the Olympics out of it.
                                • I know nobody on this earth ever met the great theologians of our past, but I c know two things.
                                  1) Nobody is perfect in knowledge.
                                  2) in my opinion the great theologians did a very good job. Their task was immense and the reason the Bible a best seller is because the stories are great and they haven’t really changed for thousands of years. So thanks to God for giving them the live to do it.
                                  They were great not perfect.
                                  The original. Hebrew and Greek it was translated into didn’t even use punctuation. “One jot or tillle” (the smallest comma) can change the meaning of an entire text, so be careful.
                                  • What helps me is when I read a Bible passage and out myself in the speakers place and ask”Why am I saying this?”
                                    God wants us to know what He is saying. How can we know God unless we get closer to the picture.

                                    Try being the good guy in the story. Then be the bad guy. You’ll be amazed what happens.
                                    You’ll find yourself laughing at people acting like monkeys.
                                    I just didn’t see that I was the monkey once…and then repented, but became a monkey again.
                                    I know I’m a sinner. We all know we’re sinners. I think we should spend more time helping each other than hacking each other to death over when I lost all my chimpanzee hair.
