"Don't forget, I have not had much in depth study of this, and admittedly can be off base. Even though happenings like the destruction of Jerusalem by the Roman Legions, the basic boundries were set geographically, and it was time for God to begin the process of bringing souls back to the proper path through the crucifixion of Jesus which began the Faith we now adhere to. Different circumstances, different rules." Haqi

That's no problem. History is not really important to the main point of our discussion. I do not trust a man who always has to be right or thinks he knows everything. That man has no learning ability left for things of the Spirit. Any one can learn historical events or the events in the Bible. It tells me nothing about the man other than he is good at parroting from memory.
We start out by being honest with ourselves just like you did in your post. We don't know everything and to act like we have "special knowledge" is crap.

You or maybe Dan or even myself may have the knowledge of acceptance and love and understanding of who and what we are. It comes out in selfless acts to smile at someone we don't know or to feel deep empathy for the sinner who is hard to love because we know that but for God's grace we could have been like that man or woman.

In gratitude we become available for God to use as His instrument. That is the real deal in God's Kingdom. That is the person that God has reserved a place at His table for, Haqi.

I am drawn to the honest man because that man has something to teach me because He may have the Word of God himself to express to me if I listen.

Thanks for hearing me out Haqi. Osceola was a man of greatness, known for bravery and courage. I meant to compliment you by his name.

In His service,

Santiago
