@PettyTalk saidThis post denies the machinations of evil.
The Word speaks for itself. God causes everything to happen, whether good, bad, or indifferent. And yes, even the wool over our eyes is God's doing. He causes everything.... ALL of it.
I am the Lord, and there is no other; There is no God besides Me. I will gird you, though you have not known Me, that they may know from the rising of the sun to its setting that there is ...[text shortened]... eate darkness, I make peace and create calamity; I, the Lord, do all these things. ---- Isaiah 45
I hope evil never affects your life. But if it does, I hope for your sake you don't stand back and give God the middle finger.

You hare not exempt from having plenty of wool pulled over your eyes.

Wait till you get completely sheared with the rest of the sheep, then perhaps, God willing, you will be able to see the truth of it all.
LOL. Yeah okay.
[Numbers 24:8 NKJV] 8 "God brings him out of Egypt; He has strength like a wild ox; He shall consume the nations, his enemies; He shall break their bones And pierce [them] with his arrows.
[Psalms 68:1, 21 NKJV] 1 To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. A Song. Let God arise, Let His enemies be scattered; Let those also who hate Him flee before Him. ... 21 But God will wound the head of His enemies, The hairy scalp of the one who still goes on in his trespasses.
[Nahum 1:2 NKJV] 2 God [is] jealous, and the LORD avenges; The LORD avenges and [is] furious. The LORD will take vengeance on His adversaries, And He reserves [wrath] for His enemies;
[Nahum 1:8 NKJV] 8 But with an overflowing flood He will make an utter end of its place, And darkness will pursue His enemies.

You do not speak as one.
@Suzianne saidWhen I use a yardstick and I say something according to the measurement I got
So not really 'truth' at all, huh?
from it, it will be both my opinion and the truth given to me by the yardstick as I
have put my faith in the accuracy of the yardstick.
If I were to use a level to see if what I'm hanging is level and I go by the readings I
get, it will be both my opinion and the accuracy of the level.
I believe the scriptures are the revealed Word of God, if I am accurate in my
reading and interpretation quoting it, I will be giving truth according to my
opinion and the Word.
Now all three of those I can be shown I'm wrong if you can find fault in either how
I'm using the yardstick, level, or my reading and understanding of scripture or the
flaws in my sources of truth. I am not the final judge of truth, I have to go to a
source, my feelings don't play a part in this and they can even be counterproductive.
I can be corrected by the Word, and if I am wrong about something I want to be
corrected by the Word. In this place, the corrections come more through insults a
cheap shot, and silence, not by all, all the time, but some are famous for it.
@PettyTalk saidAre you just here to throw insults? 😀
Apparently, in asking, you have joined forces with your stalker/admirer, divegeester.
God forbid!
Are you two Christians? Prove it!

@Suzianne saidI can say that I have given God much more than my finger, and He knows it, since He's all-knowing. But then there's that old saying, give anyone a finger, and they want the whole hand... give them a hand, and they want the whole arm..... and before you know it they want it all.

One must give God what He wants. What does God want? What can God possibly want, when he can, with only words, have everything he could possibly want?
Someone who may have been very wise, said that God wants only Love and Justice. As they say, live and let live. God does not want only the strong to survive. He wants everyone to survive, which means that the strong is to help the weak, the widow, and the orphan to survive too. Which also means that physical evolution is contrary to what God really wants.

I have, indeed, thrown a jab or two in self defense.
And so have most of us here; minus the self defense bs. That sounds like a humpty trumpty cop-out. No one is in physical danger here, or on the internet. That's why there are so many punks on the internet. Face to face, many would run to their mommy or back in their basement. Like smaller than average Joe boy, and all his fake accounts.
@PettyTalk saidNot fully a fool's errand. They could be talking about physical signs like shifting landmarks or wonders making things both outside of a person's understanding and their possibility of belief. Take the aurora borealis, for example; whilst not a remarkable occurrence for those in northernmost America, it could satisfy those not inculterated to it.
Clear? You say: "Everything he said was clear to those with faith."
Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip?
Faith and clearness, literally? You are kidding, right?
Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast it out?” So Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief; for assur ...[text shortened]... learly understand how to move a mountain with words?
