Thank you, Merv! I have also done a lot of thinking about holding the Bible to such esteem, and have adjusted my thinking on that. God, the Holy Spirit, nature, etc speak so loudly when we allow them to.

How about making sense about a father that would nail his only son to a cross to receive one of the worst things know to man.
@mervynedmunds3780
@mervynedmunds3780 5 ай бұрын
The only way to makes sense of that idea is to state that it is bad theology.
@mervynedmunds3780
@mervynedmunds3780 5 ай бұрын
It is driven by the view of God as a deity, one that needs sacrifice or bad stuff will happen. A view of God as father changes this. 'For God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself' tells us where God was on Good Friday, not hiding his face, not appeasing his wrath by being like the god of Moloch.

I have lived my life, especially in my youth, as an optimist. And as such I can appreciate what you are saying. Sometimes I think along these lines and wonder if faith will overcome. I don't want to believe in eternal damnation, even for my worst enemy. The mere thought is quite disturbing to me. But I believe in the Bible. And as such I cannot dismiss it. Trust in God is the best I can do.

Most texts regarding Hell are from Jesus himself and concern the destruction of the temple and the end of the old covenant.

Hi Mervyn. Good talk. I'm on the journey to understand the restoration of all things. I really like Revelation 22. I think it's relevant.

Merv, that is really you !!! Wonderful to see you😊 And just in time too. I was getting so frustrated and couldn’t understand how some of us really get it and others don’t at all, and we’ve been in the same fellowship for years. Now I’ve got to listen to this again, patterns, bigger window, stories, I’ve got to put it all together. Oh how I would love to sit and chat with you, and I’ve got to make sure my sister sees this, she’s gonna love it. Thank-you merv, what a great idea, and good to see you. Will watch it with my husband, God willing, in the morning, he’s sleeping now.😊

@mikwilpir6940 pls don't take Merv's comments about COVID as bias, he doesn't have a mean bone in his body and he is certainly the opposite. At the time of filming remote communities were being encouraged to get vaccinated and many ATSI health workers wearing COVID-10 Team TShirts: endorsed by NACCHO. It might not seem like it today: late November 2022 and wow, how we have moved on: but those comments were really relevant in 2021, and I hope readers don't take this video out of context. On another matter, I hope you find time to embody this technique it is amazing how our imagination can get us into trouble and how amazing it is how our imagination can get us out of trouble. Merv's has been very generous in delivery, design and write up of this technique. If you need further assistance, I am sure Merv would be happy to assist you. Many thanks.

This was extremely beautiful and helpful but throwing that coh vid jab in at the end is totally bias and unnecessary. I appreciate the time you took and lisa also, as this helped me solidify this technique in my energy as being helpful. Thank You
