Originally posted by The King View PostChristians having a dependant, interpersonal relationship with Jesus are fine with me, since that is where their Faith has taken them. My opinion is that the relationship any one individual has with Jesus is going to be unique to that individual, however Jesus Himself remains and will remain the same regardless.Men have become the tools of their tools.

Edit: maybe to further clarify, it seems egocentric that one would expect that level of management. I hear the phrase God's plan, and God working through me, and so on and wonder if people's desires don't manifest under false auspices of God's doings.Last edited by BERNIE MOSFET; 06-27-2012, 12:27 PM.Men have become the tools of their tools.

Originally posted by The King View PostGod does tend to every facet of our lives, if we choose to allow Him to do so, and it's not interference by Him in the minutia of our lives if He has been invited in is it? The reason one could expect that level of management is that through God, all things are possible down to the smallest details.I wear a Fez. Fez-es are cool
