RainbowsGirl Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 It's kind of cool though...If words were presented about those verses or any other subjects. The one hearing could get a whole different perspective. Inspired and activated by one set of words can reveal a whole new set of words. And reflections, perspectives and activation in anyone listening. We speak, but we are not in control of what the hearer hears and what it inspires in others. How true, what you're saying is; Yet ironically many things GOD sets apart for particular distinctions and courses. They give us direction... like for example: the right road: Mat 7:13 ¶ Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide [is] the gate, and broad [is] the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Mat 7:14 Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. I hope You don't take this wrong (((Cman))), It is definitely not meant to offend You!!! It is a compliment about your personality that I see when I read your perspective and thoughts here! At first I didn't understand the way that you think! I guess we all think so differently. Now when I read what you write I see it much more clearly You surely are a very naturally mellow person for this day and age!!! Like the song "Mellow Yellow" sounds; and not in the context of or necessarily the words of the song! Years back when I used to be around people who would "mellow out" or "get high" on drugs...I was so amazed at how mellow they could be...yet it was so artificial, with its jagged and abrupt cycles of highs and lows...as soon as they hit their balance it was gone...so fleeting, hey?! They all too soon started crashing, and always had to chase their next "High" with ever increasing amounts of "High of choice drugs" Their crashes came sooner and sooner! I was offered a lot of drugs in those days and I am very glad that I refused them for the most part. Self control is too valuable a treasure to lose or squander!!! My kind of natural high may fluctuate somewhat but it's like You natural mellowness, just part of our different makeups and chemistries...and I might add totally literally and figuratively absolutely free!!! The way we think and learn, our individual make up, chemistry, soul and heart. have a lot too due with the free will choices we make! GOD's will and nature are so different than ours are...This I surmised because I know that we are not perfect and He, GOD IS!!! This helps me to understand these "through the looking glass" verses (as I call them), a little bit more: We are so very complicated and complex physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually that I will never be able understand or accept the theory of evolution. 1Cr 13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. 2Cr 3:18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, [even] as by the Spirit of the Lord. Jam 1:23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
