Would you agree that when it comes to Jesus, the apple fell far, far from the tree?

Question

I should have been more clear; sorry. OT God: mean, mean mean! Jesus: mice than Mr. Rogers....

"mice" - wtf?? That should have been "nicer"

I just got up from a nap a little bit ago, and my head is still foggy :)

Answer 1

Jesus being the tree, and some of his professed followers being the apples? Some of them seem to be so far 'fallen' they're kumquats.

Answer 2

Your suggesting the Bible god was mean and Jesus was nice -- then how come it was Jesus who couldn't stop talking about HELL whereas the Bible god hardly said anything about it?

As for the apple falling far from the tree -- Jesus and god are totally two different gods anyway. Yes, Jesus claimed they were related -- but the Bible god made no such claim.

Answer 3

I wasn't awaiting lots from the Mets this year different than watching Harvey and Wheeler and D'Arnaud later this summer season. despite if, with the state of this team and the actual indisputable fact that they've embraced the assumption of stockpiling hands, searching for much less costly yet efficient place gamers (i'm no longer paying for into "paying for" an outfield next low season given this is under no circumstances been Alderson's MO) whilst coming up organizational intensity, they do no longer seem to prefer to furnish consistent and sufficient taking part in time to the outfielders. i like Terry Collins lots and given the path Alderson seems to be like taking this team he's definately the nicely suited guy for the pastime so i've got not got lots to ***** approximately. despite if, he does not seem to prefer to furnish 3 outfielders the prospect to play everyday different than Duda who seems to be like ultimately having some issues come jointly for him. I wish he'd provide Cowgill and Baxter the CF and RF jobs respectively, rotate Nieuwenhuis in from time to time and be the previous due innings protective alternative. Byrd is usless IMO and Valdespin is an infielder greater advantageous ideal for 2d who does not get on base consistent sufficient to be a primary participant.

Answer 4

Apples don't merely fall from trees. God causes them to come to the Earth, because Hell is in the middle of Earth.

Answer 5

So the story goes. Does this mean that Michael Myers wasn't Jesus' dad?

Answer 6

Yes, Jesus does seem a lot nicer than the Biblical God.
I love the baby Jesus- he's so cute!


EDIT- Alright, who thumbs downed the baby Jesus? You will be hearing from my attorneys!

Answer 7

This sounds like some kind of weak attempt at grasping for straws when there are no more intelligent arguments to use against God and Jesus!

(There were never any in the first place, but it looks like you're getting down to the bottom of the barrel, scraping the bottom for any little argument or excuse you can use to reject God's authority from your life.)

Answer 8

No,because Jesus is the tree

Romans 11:11-24

I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.
12 Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?
13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:
14 If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, and might save some of them.
15 For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?
16 For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.
17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;
18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.
19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in.
20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee.
22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.
24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed into their own olive tree?
25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
28 As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes.

Jesus is bringing everyone to the tree of Himself if they repent

Answer 9

Answer 10
