Two Commandments ...

You probably think I'm going to quote Jesus, but this time I'm not.

The 1st Commandment is that God is always right. (ALWAYS).

The 2nd Commandment is that you and I are usually wrong, and when there is any doubt all we need to do is check with God's Word.

There is nothing wrong with all of those sinners that still respect the Deity of God, knowing full well that they are in fact sinners. We all fall short of the Glory of God, but that, in and of itself, shouldn't keep us from recognizing the Supreme Authority. What Father, when his child should ask for bread would then give the child a stone ? Get it. Kids are sometimes outrageously a pain in the ass, but we understand parenting ... God made us, He understands parenting us. Let Christ work in you, and be patient. You won't be able to levitate immediately, so give it time. And in the end your righteousness will be as filthy rags, but that's when Grace, "unmerited favor" does its work.

Fact: We are not sinners because we sin. We sin because we are sinners by nature.

Those people that are upset about the Ten Commandments being removed from the "Supreme" (not) Court, are making a human attempt at saying they love our Creator. And I like that very much.

The Price was paid, for the whole field and everything in it belongs to He that paid the price. You cannot earn it, it's a gift. And all it costs is everything.
