I could not find anything good about imagination in the Bible, you must know where it is since you push for it

AT the FIRST UNITY MEETING And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.

Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.

Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they gathered together for war.

What do ye imagine against the LORD? he will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time.

Does God have an imagination, like when he created (male and female in his own image)? If the imagination is of the original creation, and it is of the redeemed creation, why must it be conjuring to use it?

A&W?  I don't think so - that is Root Beer.... If you are speaking of A&E probably.  However, there is a correct and an incorrect use of the imagination.  Children at play use it all the time and this is good; but when adults use it to seek
the image of God - this is another story.  jt

So, Kevin, Judy, Izzy, is the imagination a result of the fall -- in other words, were A&W created with imaginations?

Whats wrong with conjuring up a little something with your imagination?

 

reIMAGINING Christianity

http://www.confessingumc.org/wicca_story2.html


�Jesus is not God�
�What does it take for us to break rank with the slave masters� religion?� asked another speaker, Carter Heyward. Her answer was to reimagine Jesus Christ. Heyward said that it is a mistake to emphasize �the singularity of God�s presence in Jesus.� Describing what she believes about Jesus, she said, �It was not Jesus� identity with God, as if Jesus somehow thought of himself as divine � Jesus in reality was not God �

 

Kevin, you nailed it again.  The imaginations of men/women are simply that.  Izzy
