And yet you still recognize that had God taken one of your son's you still say "Blessed be the Name of the Lord."

I saw this IN ACTION , this week, as a good brother and sister of mine, lost a grandson to hypothermia. As they went to be with the family, he related the story of how the family literally FELT the prayers of everyone on them and even though they grieved, they could not be mad, or even sad. THEY GAVE GLORY TO GOD....as did the father of the boy, even as he did everything in his power to save the boy, he was singing praises to God. They freely admit they will miss TJ until once again are re-united with him.

Their FAITH and strength touches my heart.

Praise God

Nancy, I also have had some very bad experiences in life, with my children, ex-husband, etc., and I know that the only reason I'm able to type this message to you is because of the grace of God.

Our Lord Jesus has always been there waiting for me with open Loving arms to comfort and console me. He's picked me up and dusted me off more times than I could ever deserve. I've been a real problem child. I have learned many lessons the hard way. And I know that it is only by the Grace of God that I'm here at all.

I am so thankful that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Colleen

RE>>the Lord delivered us. <<
I am glad... However there is no way that I can know for myself that that is true. Think about this for just one moment. People from all kinds of religions claim that "the Lord delivered them"

That is a "personal testimony"

If someone tells me they saw Jesus in the living room last night I can not say to them " No you didn't ".. I can say " I don't believe you" Or " you meed to cut back on your medication " But I was not there. I can not say that that did not happen for sure. I can tell you my personal testimony. You would have the choice of believing or not believing what I say.

However when it comes to the Scriptures. You are commanded by God to believe. It is God's testimony. You can not decide to not believe it without being in SIN !

RE>>Do you think the Lord would desire that they be
condemned or repent and be saved?<<

I believe that the bible plainly teaches that those whom Jesus died for WILL believe.

John 6:37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

Let me make something VERY VERY PLAIN. Jesus did not come into the World to CONDEMN it... The WORLD IS CONDEMNED ALREADY !!!

James 4:4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.

Jesus is By the power of the HOLY GHOST saving people.

Here is my question to you. Do you think God wants us to lie about what he is like to try and get people saved or would he rather we tell the truth !

Revelation 3:19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
