Barry, I must be getting very dull. I missed the message you were trying to convey about checking this out and the previous post. Would it be asking to much to give specific post numbers?
You have encouraged me with some of your posts I have been reading.
"Well done is better than well said", BenFranklin
"James 1:22 -25 But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror; for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was. But one who looks intently at the perfect law, the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer, this man shall be blessed in what he does."
"Rom 10:9,10 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved."
Another way of stating, "Jesus is Lord" , is this , Jesus is THE(singular) Lord.
Isn't it very gracious of God that He doesn't require us to understand Him, only believe Him and act on it?
Here is where I belong, "Rev 1:17 And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as a dead man."
Oh, the mercy and the grace of God is far beyond my understanding(needless to say) and His love endures forever, praise His name.
Jesus is the Lord! God bless.
