Prediction Perils Coming Up?
It is hard to find out a good pick up post, but I suppose the best is to review my personal reaction to Jesus comment that if anyone had enough faith they could move mountains.
I was surprised at how many personally I found felt the entire quote was speaking figuratively. I reasoned it did not meet the requirements of figuratively speaking found, for instance, in Jesus' parables. May 25 No figure of speech....
Original Sin? For my part there is danger whenever we try to compete or actually replace God as the Eden story emphasizes. It seems to me to be yet another lure of the devil.
But if I am pursuing the power of faith to greater heights as Jesus is suggesting this is quite different. I just do not know how different which can only be identified in ones spirit.
Anyway most agree I think, and it is not disputed, that a constant struggle like a war is going on between the two. And, that is not in anyway figuratively speaking. Since I intend all my decisions are to the satisfaction of God, and so it is for everyone's satisfaction to each their own. That is as far as we can go.
I believe I can move on from here with everyone agreeing to the proofs of their own satisfactions.
