Then why would I be asking, I’m not a Bible scholar… I’m a sinner who the HS said to come to Christ. But I’m a searcher for truth… so I plod on, dig deep in search for the truth. Apparently you don’t know yourself so you demand answers… why because your a Christian. Yes I am also…so what, like I said, I’m a believer but I’m not a Bible scholar. And I question everything… everything in my quest for truth.
Then seek God's Word for your answers. You don't need to be a 'Bible scholar'. 2 Tim 2:15, Joshua 1:8, Psalm 119:105, 2 Tim 3:16-17. You just need to put in the work.
So what’s your story, are you one of the elite know it all Bible thumpers
Nope. Constantly seeking and learning from God's Word.
who demands loyalty to a book?
Just a book? That says a lot. SMH Now I see where you are coming from.
I’m not there with you… like I said, I’m a sinner in need of Christ.
As we all are.
And I just lost my wife to cancer… I’m 40 years with this women, 15 or more desperately fighting this in the hope of having her remain alive & in my life… so where are all those prayers for help and were all those prayers for nothing? Did he not hear my prayers? They seem ineffective in retrospect!
Yes I know you lost your wife. Sorry to hear that.
Maybe I’m venting but He has left me devistated and a emotional wreck.
It's ok to vent.
Will I pull it together… watch me. And I hope you don’t have to experience this ( grief) … so now I’m going to question and question and question. I will get off the floor and learn to deal with this hurt and be the wiser for it. What it’s taught me bottom line is to question everything… I’m now a zealot for truth. So yeah, I’m one of those guys and that’s how G-D made me… ever watch “Man Of La Mancha” that character speaks of Fight of Determination of Not Giving Up… the willingness to charge into hell for a heavenly cause. That’s me.Smile.
I will pray you find your answers. I find my answers in God's Word. Not preaching, just giving you where I find my strength. My wife and I have been dealing with an issue with one of our daughters for over 15 years. It's not always easy. But, God is our comfort and strength.

My sister was made a Cerebral Palsy by an immunization shot that distroyed her brainstem at two years old. She lived till she was 39 and my mother took care of her every day till her death. Shortly after that, my mother died from pancreatic cancer. The family prayed for miricals that never happened. All 3 of my uncles died within 2 years of my fathers passing at 39 YO… living my mother and my aunts widows with families to feed. Both a cousin that was like a brother and my uncle, also like a brother died young … one from a stroke and one from pancreatic cancer… each leaving families that needed them. Oh and then another cousin died at 44 yo around Christmas a few years ago. This was a praying Christian family, my cousin was a pastor, all church goers. Ahh, so you tell me to study scriptures, you tell me you will pray for me, actually please don’t… I don’t want your prayers & don’t need them, but I will tell you what, I will pray for your daughter just as I pray for Deacons granddaughter and another friend who is going through his wife’s cancer situation. Maybe He will listen and intercede and a miraculous healing will occur. Yea, wouldn’t that be glorious.

But as for me, well I’m not praying for any intersession for myself, we are now past that stage. However I will study and probe Bible Christianity with particular interest in Jesus teaching. I believe he got most of it right. Right now and in the future I’m concentrating on the Sermon on the Mount… but as for the rest of the Bible… unless the spirit moves me which he hasn’t… but tell me, do you persieve Jesus to be a realist or do you see him as an idealist? Think on it for a while before answering.

To who will you pray to and how will you pray for me? (see below)

No need to think awhile. I see Jesus as my Lord and Savior.
It has been my mistake. I thought I was having an exchange with fellow Christian. Maybe someday.

Maybe not your type of Christian however I believe in Christ… but I do not trust a Christian who are self serving and you are clearly that plus plus. And because you can’t even answer my question ( not even putting in an effort as your fond of saying ) it’s best we don’t talk again…not someday, let’s make it never ever. Forthwith I will block you from any further interaction.

What about Christ do you believe?
but I do not trust a Christian who are self serving and you are clearly that plus plus.
Self-serving? You'll need to back up that accusation. But won't.
And because you can’t even answer my question ( not even putting in an effort as your fond of saying )
I answered your question, you did not like the answer.
it’s best we don’t talk again…not someday, let’s make it never ever.
That won't be a problem. I have much better things to do. It seems my answers have touched a nerve. Some people just don't like it when they have been challenged and so they run.
Forthwith I will block you from any further interaction.
And the running is final.
