All the rest is playground nonsense by comparison. So much of what we get held back by are not salvational issues.jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18443632345764193182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1771481682224413552.post-56942937489251564712018-02-24T09:38:38.877-08:002018-02-24T09:38:38.877-08:00Your style is so unique in comparison to other peo...Your style is so unique in comparison to other people I've read stuff <br />from.

That's really flawed, given the fallibility and imperfection of humans. And, you cited some of the best examples of exceptions. It seems that attitude has always been the primary factor in God's relationship with His children. God is a master motivator and psychologist, and when He is encouraged by signs of even partial obedience, I believe He encourages our attempts by blessing us. Like a loving father, He knows we are immature, and far from perfect, but He overlooks the imperfections that He designed into each of us, because He is more interested in what we are attempting to build.<br /><br />On the other hand, God tells us in Isaiah that He hates our new moons, festivals and sabbaths when we keep them in wrong attitudes. So, grudging full obedience is actually worse than partial, loving and enthusiastic obedience, with occasional human stumbles along the way. The royal law of love is the layer of law behind the law.<br /><br />BB<br /><br />Byker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.com
