These computer things make it easy (and fun) to find the words -- understanding them is a little harder, and is the reason those of us on this thread keep "arguing/discussing" about so much.

I can't argue with you about "religion" tho. In my opinion, it is one of the MAJOR problems in the world today. Of course I'm saying "religion" -- not love of the Lord. Our local Baptist church seems to be interested primarily in providing a place many can go to visit/show off new clothes or study the Baptist "religion". (the reason I use them to illustrate is because I was brought up as a Baptist) I'd guess all other denominations have the same problems -- thankfully not all are just "religious", many love the Lord.

If your comment -- "God's Kingdom could be very well at hand and not some distant final day-of-judgment?" -- means that by following Him, God's kingdom could be here/now in our present world -- I can't agree. I see Him as giving us examples of how we're to live our lives. The rest of my beliefs are pretty much the opposite of your message # 34424 to Elect.

But I think that way back past everything in that message,we are talking about the same Lord.

Someone here talks about one of our group being SURE they are right, I'd guess you feel you are too -- I know I feel I am.

"Garment" ? -- I don't know either.

Won't it be WONDERFUL to be with the Lord and FINALLY have an accurate understanding of His word. I doubt if many of us will find that we've been right in everything we believe.
