My opinion is based on the versus given by Jesus/God himself, which were provided by Stephen in his link today. People tend to hear what they want to hear, see what the want to see, or they are to busy with themselves to get involved with trying to understand anyone or anything else, (eg their heart's aren't in it, or their hearts have become hardened and can't receive it). The result is that even some in the Christian community have it wrong, and are passing their misunderstandings along to others, because they simple don't understand. In the sense that Jesus/God's word may not be truly received, either audible or visually seem like a bug to me, (eg errors can occur). #------------------ 13: This is why I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand. 14: With them indeed is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah which says: `You shall indeed hear but never understand, and you shall indeed see but never perceive. 15: For this people's heart has grown dull, and their ears are heavy of hearing, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should perceive with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn for me to heal them.' #-------------------------- Regards, LelandJ > > > --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- > multipart/mixed > text/plain (text body -- kept) > message/rfc822 > --- > [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
