The problem, with your metaphors, is that they don't agree with any literal interpretation.Keithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11254093786094787764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2678887618770375136.post-37981663176528757162016-08-15T07:42:33.580-04:002016-08-15T07:42:33.580-04:00Paul,

But now I am going to Him who sent Me, and none of you asks Me, ‘Where are you going?’ But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart. Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send Him to you. And when He comes, he will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment: concerning sin, because they do not believe in Me; concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you will see Me no longer; concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.<br />I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. When the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all the truth, for He will not speak on his own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak, and He will declare to you the things that are to come. He will glorify Me, for He will take what is Mine and declare it to you. All that the Father has is Mine; therefore I said that he will take what is Mine and declare it to you.'<br /><br />John ch. 16 vs. 4b-16Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16165344093549650260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2678887618770375136.post-69311017875848944522016-08-15T05:15:35.768-04:002016-08-15T05:15:35.768-04:00Brenda, which God brought the crucifixion of Jesus...Brenda, which God brought the crucifixion of Jesus to pass ?<br /><br />Can't you see ? It's metaphoric language.<br /><br />The Lord Jesus Christ is the Lord God, and nobody has the power to put the Lord God on the cross.<br />The Lord Jesus went by His OWN initiative to the cross. For that very purpose God became a man to die for our sins. <br /><br />You said, 'through the shedding of his blood--to be received by faith.' <br />What does that mean Brenda ?Paul Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15227545422232659930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2678887618770375136.post-8460009144060928472016-08-13T11:20:26.027-04:002016-08-13T11:20:26.027-04:00Paul,

He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished--'<br /><br />The name 'Barabbas' means 'son of the father', and It is not coincidence that the one who was set free from being put to death at Calvary was named Barabbas. <br />He represented fallen mankind, the children of Adam. On that day the Son of the heavenly Father was releasing the son of the earthly father from spiritual death and opening the way to eternal life to all of mankind. <br /><br />Praise His lovely name.Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16165344093549650260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2678887618770375136.post-82209236246935777772016-08-13T09:43:09.599-04:002016-08-13T09:43:09.599-04:00How amazing is God, and His plan for all to be sav...How amazing is God, and His plan for all to be saved! He so loved the world!<br /> <br />'Lest you be wise in your own sight, I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers: a partial hardening has come upon Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. And in this way all Israel will be saved, as it is written,<br />'The Deliverer will come from Zion,<br /> he will banish ungodliness from Jacob, and this will be my covenant with them when I take away their sins.'<br />Romans ch. 11 vs. 25-27<br />Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16165344093549650260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2678887618770375136.post-45304870243642102482016-08-13T00:09:21.806-04:002016-08-13T00:09:21.806-04:00Yes my friend, what you have said is true, but tha...Yes my friend, what you have said is true, but that was the Lord's doing, because His people were ALWAYS stubborn and stiff necked and always rejecting the Lord to this very day. Therefore the Lord scattered the people of Israel among the nations and told them that they will be hated by all the nations.<br /><br />When the Lord God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (Jesus Christ) came to His own, they received Him NOT, but rejected Him and put Him on the cross in the place of a murderer Barabbas. <br />And all the people said, "His blood shall be on us and on our children !" (Mat. 27:25)<br /><br />The hatred of Israel will always be there till they turn away from their false god and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. <br />Only in Jesus Christ their rejection will be removed and are saved and apart from the Lord Jesus Christ is NO salvation for Israel and the Gentiles alike and for you and me.<br />But whosoever shall believe in the Lord Jesus Christ shall be saved and those who do not believe will be damned.Paul Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15227545422232659930noreply@blogger.com
