    Jeremiah 31:31-34 God’s instructions/laws will be written in our hearts…not rewritten.

    Not necessarily, but Jesus pointed them all back to the two foundational laws. That’s the point of a sermon. It distills large areas of scripture into themes or major points. Love God Love neighbor Eye for eye wasn’t about retribution or anger...

    But verse 21 assumes that the new brethren will receive further instruction on Gods eternal law as they spend time in the local synagogues (it was a movement still very centered on the Israelite origins). The council of Jerusalem set the...

    I’m not certified in any related field but I was curious on your personal take because I’ve picked up on the vibe based on your writing style over time. Of course, if you’ve ever been to a retreat, you’ll note that none of us necessarily speak...

    Really not sure. Not the first time I have been told it by peoole theoretically qualified to judge. I did get a bit curious though after that encounter and did some reading on the topic. Lots of the traits do map onto me pretty squarely but...

    Update: While my wife has been open to understanding that polygyny is not sin, (She holds a Masters degree in theology so she actually studied it) she said “it’s not for you” We have gone through a year of jealousy and growth (painful), and...

    Ok, it’s becoming more clear to me that the enemy is running interference. I suggest that you pray and ask for direction on how you need to proceed. Possibly binding spirits of jealousy, fear? Too many things are falling into place, but not...

    This is one way to take away from the foreignness of the prospect. Act like a family. Show your Mrs that you can indeed multitask without shortchanging her. Might I suggest vacationing or a few road trips? These are rarely ever overnight...
