Kamsified: Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the Lord,and who meditates on his law day and night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water,which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers. Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
Psalm 1:1-6
My prayer this morning is that as we March out today, may we put God's word first in all we do. And even when we make mistakes, may we quickly realize our error(s) and make amends. I pray that God will give each of us the grace to live the life he expects of us daily as catholics and may we be true ambassadors of Christ wherever we find ourselves no matter the fleshly "rewards" of doing otherwise And may the blessings of following his commands be our portion all the days of our lives. For these I pray through Christ our Lord. Amen
Good morning brethren. Have a grace filled day Amen Amen, welcome Ada nne. |

jnrbayano: TAKE LOTS OF BEER DURING LENT
The Parish Priest of St.Patrick's Church in Bangalore in India gave a simple advise on what to do during 40 days of lent. He said we should take lots of *BEER*.
Now do not let your minds go wondering. This means:
*B-BIBLE-* Read your Bible.This is God's given time to be spiritually enriched with the word of God
*E-EMPATHY-*Feel empathy for the poor and neglected and do something about it.
*E-EUCHARIST-*Go for mass frequently besides Sunday's.If possible everyday.
*R-RECONCILIATION*-This is the best time to reconcile with those we have hurt,not talking, seek forgiveness. Restore our relationship with God and one another.
Have a wonderful and joyful Lent and do not forget your BEER.
GOD BLESS YOU Nice. |

JMAN05: Where did Jesus say that God never gave that command? The laws issued by Moses were under Gods direction or approval. Thus it was God who made the concession thru Moses. The whole Law issued by God thru Moses is often spoken of by the jews as being Mosaic Law. This does not mean he gave it on his own authority. Syncan don't you think you misunderstood Jesus statement? you also know that moses gave other laws after that of divorce. So is Moses unilaterally issuing laws for Gods people? Pls think abt it some more.
Secondly, whatever is written in the scripture, you are authorised to call it scripture. Seriously, do u still argue that too? I don't see why I can't call that verse you gave scripture. Is it not from scripture? Was it from enuma ellish?
Jesus quoted Moses statement as scripture in Matt 4:4. Was the verse Jesus alluded to Gods utterance?
Oga do research on that verse. As a bible student I shouldn't tell u everything. Do research and see the correlation.
My dear I agree intoto with that scripture, my worry is if you do understand my position: all the oral inspired tradition that were essential for you to be fully equipped were later penned down. Any other do not have equal authority with the scriptures.
For example: the after Paul spoke of tradition in that 2thess 2:15, in 2thess 3:6-9 he explained what some of these unwritten tradition involved.
Secondly, after stating a tradition he handed down in 1cor 11:2, he went further to state what such tradition involved. Read 1cor 11:23. Any other tradition said to have issued from the apostles should be weighed with the scriptures. And it doesn't have any authority equal to the scriptures as we could make out of Jesus statement I quoted above. No no no, scripture has always differentiated it. One was God's law, the other was Moses's law. 2Ki 21:8: Neither will I make the feet of Israel move any more out of the land which I gave their fathers; only if they will observe to do according to all that I have commanded them, and according to all the law that my servant Moses commanded them.Here you can see what "I have commanded" and what " my servant Moses has commanded". God's laws are perfect, Moses laws aren't. Moses was a leader appointed by God, he lead according to inspiration and his human thoughts in good conscience. However, that was just a little digression meant to show you written tradition that became obsolete, while some that weren't there in the old testament was acknowledged in the new. Now why do I oppose your line of thought, which you summarized above. There is no where in Scripture that supports your hypothesis that all other needed oral tradition were later written down. It is clear in Scripture that both the words and the letters are to guide the believer. 2Thess.2:15, 2Tim.2:2.Scripture itself says all that Jesus did cannot be recorded. How can all the appostles did be recorded there, yet what the appostles and Jesus preached and did are all traditions. Even in 1Cor. we see a reference to an earlier letter, what were the contents? Is that lost letter a part of the written or not? On your trying to find a relationship between Is.11:1 and Matt.2:23. You know why you didn't go into it, it's easy for me to accept a link between the two, because it matters not to me if it was written, lost, or Oral. It is you who believes only what you see that should have a problem with that. I will like to see you try linking the passage, let's see how strongly you believe in it and other linkages you'll accept. Am sure that down the line of our discussion, I have already passed my message, seems to me we're going through the whole process again. |

JMAN05: My dear, if you have nothing more, let me know. First, you left the comment i made and asked a question. I gave you an answer to the question, you still dont get it.
God approved the issuance of certificate of divorce through Moses. That Jesus said Moses gave it does not mean that it was Moses' personal law to the Israelites.
Jehovah himself employed such certificate with regards to the Israelites. Read Jer 3:8. Secondly, what is recorded in the bible can be referred to as scripture.
You might do well to research Isaiah 11:1. (I wonder if you saw matt 2:23 in oral tradition too)
In case you forgot, let me repost: Jesus was very clear. God never gave that command, for in the beginning "It was not so" was Jesus response to them. God drawing inference from their practice in order to teach them does not mean he originated it, Christ is the true image of God and he refused to take ownership of that law. It is written in the scriptures, yet it is not to be followed by Christians. Is.11:1 And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:Matt. 2:23 And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.I will just leave you to your hide and seek, let the readers judge for themselves. 2Thess.2:15 " Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word (oral), or our epistle (written)". |

SalC: The surprising thing is....... Mary found her missing son and inquired why he didn't come with them....Our over sabi brothers here shout...look! She isn't helping him at all let alone being a co- redemptrix. As if she was supposed to just forget looking for him.
She drew his attention to the finished wine and they screemed... Why must she want to be part of anything he does.
If she had not gone back to Jerusalem to look for him, they will still argue that she wasn't interested in him or his ministry that's why she never cared to look for him. And that's why she can't be called co-redemptrix.
Well all man to his tent. I don't have a problem with what they choose to believe . And am still believing what i know to be true. What else do you get when the blind leads the blind.

When a parent lovingly tells a child ... or a lover tells his love, who has just persuaded him/her to grant a favor: "What do I do with you?", we all understand it, and if we're watching, we smile. But when Mary persuades Jesus to grant a favor and Jesus tells his mom, "What have i to do with thee?", Oh our understanding takes a knock and changes direction to "Jesus doesn't have any business with his mother",

The men accusing Peter and John also had "great learning" but could not be compared with the "unlearned and ignorant" disciples of Christ who had great wisdom and courage and live more happier and productive lives than the accusers.

OLAADEGBU: "Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus" (Acts 4:13).
Depending on what kind of schooling you are on about. Peter and John were also accused on being unlearned and ignorant men but being with Jesus yielded them greater wisdom and courage than the religious folks of their days. They also lived happier and more productive lives than the kind of your kind of education would grant you.  Hahahahaha, Jesus was the wisest of all Rabbis, His students cannot be called unlearned in his own teaching, that's what they realized..."and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus". Note that it was Peter who you erroneously claim to be unlearned that wrote 2Pet.3:16. You can quarrel with Peter all you want. |

"The philosophical and theological meaning of 'participation' includes the understanding of an inferior being 'taking part in' (partem capere) the perfections or qualities of a superior being," it outlines. "Thus, Mary’s participation in the redemption of Christ in no way diminishes His perfect divine redemption, but rather in a human feminine and maternal expression, partakes in its divine power and efficacy."
Go school, person no go go, agree say you no know...mba!
