Preparation for Passover – March 28, 2013
This is the beginning of months. Each time it’s the same The Holy Spirit is always pushing that all come to repentance. We are exhorted to redeem the time, because the days are evil. We can do that by not seeing time.
Discussion of Abraham and his lack of faith—taking Hagar, choosing Eliezer—finally having Isaac. Works led him; he had a plan.
Does God care about unbelievers? – March 27, 2013
What does it mean that “God doesn’t care about or see non-believers”? If you look at this from man’s point of view, it doesn’t seem just that God wiped out every man, woman and child. How do you reconcile it?
Talk of God and time.
God is only interested in those that are born from above. He doesn’t see those who have not repented. He’s only interested in the Bride. There’s nothing in time and space that shows that God is just. You cannot define justice by the senses when you look at passover. All the firstborn died.
People try to make the Bible understandable to men. This is evil. The things that are seeming contradictions in the Bible are the places of greater revelation.
Wrestle with this!
