Hi Jane,

I too am not a biblical scholar but it doesn't take a biblical scholar
to understand the Bible.

Fist of all I don't beleive anyone can pick up the Bible and understand
it without first praying and asking God to give them understanding of what
it is that they have read. You have to ask God to give you the ability
to understand what it is that you are about to read before you can read it
and understand it. Most folks do it in reverse. In fact they don't even
ask to be given the insight. They just read it and draw a conclusion. Then
go out and move armies and slaughter folks, kill their childern, or whatever
turns them on and us the name of GOD to do it.

One must first ask God through Jesus to open their mind. Be receptive. The
word will then interpret what it is that they are reading. Next come the
visions. Without them you can not understand what it is that you have read.
Preception and understanding only come from and open and receptive mind.

That comes from sincerity and the proper way of asking for Gods guidence.
That comes from proper and instructive prayer. You can get out there and say
all you want that you are in the body of Jesus or God or what not. But if you
are not connected it will crumble when someone challenges your structure.
I still put my money on creation first and the full understanding of it before
I put the rest of my money on the J thing. After you have done that then the
J thing becomes so strong that even the devil can't sway you.

Peace,

Ron

PS.

I can give examples of visions and what not. They do happen. They are
real. I know, I have seen them and have talked the walk, or should I say
I have walked the talk.

PSS

I am here by accident not by purpose. Some would like to think I'm here
because God has directed me but I'm still not convinced that my presence
will benifit anyone if not hinder some folks. All I can say is that don't
beleive me but check out what I say. It is all in the big book.
