IFF the object of my/your 'faith/belief' is other
than our perception then, how and, in what way(s) does that matter? As I've
'read' you for some time now, I've seen you as one with the capacity to identify
'meaning'. Do you know what I mean? I shall not evade 'your'
question.

DAVEH: I find that interesting, Lance.
May I ask how high (that may be a poor way of describing it) is your
faith? IOW, on a scale of 1 to 10, where 10 is an absolute abiding faith
in Jesus, and 5 is a mediocre faith, and 1 is a bare shadow of a
faith....where do you feel you fit on that scale? And....If you
would rather not answer such a personal question, please do not feel compelled
to respond to this post. Or....if you feel like responding, but don't
want to risk the possible mocking or vicious attack of other TTers....post it
off-Forum.
Perhaps I did not properly consider your
original question. I don't consider my faith to be placed in JS, but
rather in Jesus. So, if somebody chooses to attack JS for whatever
reason, I'm not too bothered. To me it would be like they are
attacking Moses, or Abraham or Paul. I hadn't thought about it before,
but perhaps that explains why I don't get in a huff when some detractors say
bad things about JS on TT.

Speaking for myself...maybe.A not very good
movie was made (look! he's at it again..does this guy do nothing but watch
movies?) entitled 'The Body'; the premise of which was...wait for it...the
discovery of the bones of Jesus..Well, there you go
This would be comparable to discovering a
document in the handwriting of JS saying...hey..I was just funnin'
y'all!!

Re: [TruthTalk] Perry vs DaveH
DAVEH: Lance, from a subjective
standpoint.......Do you believe Jesus is the Christ? If so, could
anything be said to move you from that truth as you perceive it? (I
also wonder the same about other TTer's feelings about this....hoping to
hear some responses.)
Lance Muir wrote:
If I read you correctly then, absolutely
nothing could be said ever to move you from your 'subjective truth'. I
thought as much.
DAVEH:
If I'm following you correctly on this Lance, the answer would be yes
to both questions. (But I have not given it any deep thought, as
I'm a bit short on time this morning.)

Blaine says that 'God gives direction to all liberally who ask
in faith'. I asked you/DH whether or not the 'subjective' bottom
line was James 1. Are you herein simply offering a resounding 'yes'
to that query? Would this invariably be your fallback
position?
