He tells us throughout the whole bible to do His will, not your own. If we really did love the Lord we would do what he says.
Rom 10:17 So then faith [cometh] by hearing, and hearing by the word of God
Think about it. All these Words in the book are not in vain. The Lord is Perfect.

Yes this is so true, but we are also imperfect and will fall short. We are lucky though, because God sent his son, so that we can be forgiven. All we can do is try with all our might to listen and obey his words. God knows what is in our hearts and who is really trying to follow his words. He knows who loves him.

The Lord gave you the ability to think and the power of free will.
Think about it.
Besides the bible is the word of the lord. It is not proven that everything in the bible was the exact word. If it were than the lord would of written the bible. We interpret what the bible says as the people who wrote the bible interpret ted what the lord said.

Because we are intelligent beings given the intellect to exercise their own knowledge and beliefs. What the Lord tells us is by faith in a now defunct tomb...the Bible.

Not everyone goes by feeling. The Bible is our only guide. Yes the Lord is perfect.

The problem is that we go by "what we THINK the Lord tells us to do." Often times that is not what other Christians THINK the Lord tells us to do.

Because America has rejected the english LORDly system and votes as opposed to being dictated to. And Arabs hate you for your alledged freedoms when they have none.
So From a canadian to america good luck.

The greatest and most dangerous gift God gave us is free will. He wants us to come to him because we want to not because we have to. It would not require faith if we had to.

I feel you think people should be like cattle going to slaughter....just follow along with the crowd. What happened to reasoning, to thought, and free will, that we are suppose to have?
