Mark…whatever path David might be on, I see no reason to be anxious of the outcome…shldn’t we, in the spirit of Gamaliel, rest in the knowledge that if the metaphor accurately explains,illuminates and challenges problems that exist in his world,then it can be of divine origin?…in other words,the proof is in the pudding…why not taste and see? Remember,it’s just a metaphor..not a creed

Yes, and I like very much NP’s effort’s to find unity in the division he see’s around him. My reaction to his thoughts are ones of caution. An open mind is quite similar to a hole in the head at times.

I just can’t get past the thought that if it isn’t centered on Jesus as the Christ then it isn’t Christian. Maybe that is the path that NP is on. I just wonder if what needs to be given up is worth the price ?

maybe the devil’s dirty handprints or our own sin. Surely not the Devil himself? he lays out the bait and we go or not.

And God lets the numbers be what they will, although he controls the outcome… hmm

As good as a man can be.

Jesus told us that “there is no one good but God.”

We are all compromised…yes indeed.
