If there weren't people to tempt others, why would it be a reward to get into heaven. Also, if Judas hadn't defected from Jesus' ideals, and had him crucified, what would have happened? How would Jesus then be able to die for our sins?
On another thought, if there aren't people to defy God, then the antichrist will never come to power which would make the book of revalations irrelivent. so my real question is, does God let us sin so that others can know what goodness is?

John 1:15 John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me.’”

John 1:16 And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace.

John 1:17 For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

John 1:18 No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.

More Questions:
2) Why the contrast between the “law” (Moses) and “grace and truth” (Jesus Christ)?
3) Why is it said that the law was “given” through Moses, but grace and truth “came” through Jesus Christ?
4) If Jesus was and is God, what does it mean that Jesus Christ “has declared” God?

It seems Noahic grace was a tad partial, saving some only.
The saving grace of JC seems to be salvation of the world.
Problem with Noah is he also died & rec'd not the promise.

Two of everything to sort out, til only one of everything?

I had a bit of a shock today.
I was cooking in the kitchen and the windows got steamed up
so i opened the back door to let the steam out. I was also making a cup of tea and had the boiling kettle in my hand.
A kid of about 17 walked straight into my kitchen, stopped when he saw me holding the kettle. I shouted at him what the hell did he think he wanted. He turned and ran out.
I think I would have thrown the boiling water over him if he had
come any closer. I suppose then he could have sued me for assault. I didn't ring the police and am wondering if I should have. Was it my fault for not having the kitchen door locked. I am feeling very unsettled by this.

A friend of mine listens to Coast to Coast a lot and told me about this. It makes a lot of sense to me, what do you think? The colour of your skin is supposed to be an indication of the age of your race, black being oldest, brown, red, yellow, and finally white.

I mean, if you look at history, every race but white people lived in harmony with nature; everything that was taken was given back equally and replenished.

I personally thought it would make more sense for them to come from the middle of the earth, where they learned war, technology, and ownership from the lizard people, and that was why our anatomy was similar.

Curious as to what you think here. Haters and Stupid people, go find someone else to beat with experience...

If so are you willing to say something about someone stalking my questions. I am receiving violations for posts i made last winter and they are only for posts that were definitely pro-Catholic or anti-fundamentalist.

Hebrews 1:1-4

God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,

Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:

Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.


So, why do a lot of people say Jesus *IS* God when this says God made Jesus?
