Jt's 'slip slidin' away' once again. When your
asked ANYTHING with some specificity, you just turn the tables thus, critiquing
the one who asks you a genuine question.
Will you:
1. Demonstrate my meaning?
2. Address the issue therein?
Please put up or......

When you, David, Kevin et al SELECT TEXTS which
you deem appropriate for any issue under discussion, you are interpreting,
teaching, imagining..God's own answers to that which is being spoken of. I do
not believe that you've ever 'seen' that, nor do I believe that you ever will
'see' that. IMO it's not complicated.
jt: You don't have to "believe me"
Lance since I'm not looking for followers. However, I do think it tragic that
you know so much about movies and lines in movies and so little about the Word
of God which shows me clearly which type of wisdom has your full
attention. Obviously you are not involved with taking thoughts captive
to the obedience of Christ but rather walking in the counsel of the ungodly
and sitting in the seat of the scoffer (with regard to DM anyway)

I don't demonize any part of the body per se
Lance but without spiritual discernment everyone is open to
deception. Look at how the adversary uses
the "imagination" and John Lennon's song is a perfect example. God
does not reveal Himself to mankind through
their fallen imaginations. Nor does He reveal His Word to us in this
way. Faith imagination is a misnomer. How do you know the
Jesus you conjure up is not the "angel of light?" God will
either hide or reveal Himself to whomsoever He wills - and He hides
Himself from the proud but gives grace to the humble.

Jt:'I don't want a Jesus of my own
imagination..'
1. Please don't demonize the imagination.
It comes into play in all of our thinking (theologizing). The kind of
'interpreting' that you, David et al do on a regular basis.
2. Therefore, like it or not, YOU DO HAVE A
JESUS OF YOUR OWN 'IMAGINING'.
G, you sound just
like my mother who, last time I was with her was in total unbelief and
I have no reason
to believe things have changed since
then. She told me one would have to have a good
imagination to
believe the Bible.
This is the fruit of liberal unbelieving scholars and clergy on the
radio and in her Church
which BTW has lost it's candlestick and is
getting ready to close the doors and auction the building. God
will
not be mocked and ppl always reap what they
sow. I don't want a Jesus of my own imagination who
would
just be another antichrist figure.

So the ressurection story developed over time from a
legend?
A tall tale?

'saga' and 'legend' are types of history, the

'stories'
pastors tell ppl stories, in this case the story of
the resurrection
it's
like the story of JCs birth--in KJ English someone writes: ~ 'now
the birth of Jesus was on this wise' or Jesus' birth came about
like this...
such
stories do not falsify such events (with a capital 'E'); they let
you imagine the truth involved..kinda like a good (B Dylan:)
song
So maybe you could explain ..
these quotes, why is the ressurection a
"Legend"?
