    Solo,

    That Baptist church from Dallas is like the church of the Laodiceans:

    “Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked..”
    (Revelation 3:17) 😕

    Be patient…!
    “The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.”
    (Ecclesiastes 1:9 ) ☀

    Cornel

      and, as this is the I believe (part two...
      lets put this thread above and stop messing around Cornel.
      you dont get the game yet.
      Have you ?
      Come back after new holidays,
      or stay around without showing.

      But, the next time come naked, alone and with no books.

      Yes
      that is my thought.

        Regarding Raja’s parabola(mentioned a few times), it is a children’s story but which is believed by many naïve adults.

        Blind men lack sight but God gives them compensating sharp senses. Though a blind man only touches part of an elephant, he feels the proximity/existence of the whole entity. A blind man perceives things differently than a ‘normal’ man blindfolded. Some people, blindfolded, think that God is what they imagine.

        According to the Bible, “faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” (Romans 10:17) In the Bible we have a complete image/description of God. Raja’s method was by trial and error and by mockery. Keeping our eyes open and reading the whole Bible, we see God in all his fullness.

          Cornel, that story is a metaphor for the fool-hardiness of looking at things from a single point of view...it was meant for people like you.

              Perhaps the words of John Lenin can help. LET IT BE. Know it? Check it out. Relates perfectly to your desperate search.

              The song "Let it Be" was written by Paul McCartney, no? And it's "Lennon" not "Lenin", unless you are trying to equate the singer to the communist leader.

              I don't know how that song can be considered a call to stop the search for deeper meaning.

              I have come to the conclusion that we apply meaning to what we do and experience. That is the way of humans. "Is this all there is?" is not about denying the reality of our experience but about who we are. Many of us live a soft life distracted by entertainments and business, but life overall is hard and brutal. Suffering is all around us. Can we make our time here meaningful? Do we just want to survive, exist for a while, and rot? My dog wags his tail. Hasn't a worry. That's good for him. Not enough for me. I have to worry about meaning for some reason.

              That's why people seek. Most find solace in helping others.

                Re.: 'Let it be':

                “When I find myself in times of trouble”…
                …M.M. cannot be “standing right it front of me,
                speaking words of wisdom” …
                since she died.

                Without “desperate search”, I'm patient…
                because “there will be an answer”:
                "But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” (Matthew 6:33-34)

                  That is much better Cornel.
                  still, if you can be able to avoid the quotes of your Bible and write them with your own words, well, that would be perfect.

                    lol. Biblical exegesis of Beatles songs ... a fair new oasis in the vast land of Horsecrap has been discovered. 🤣

                    Edit: hadn't noticed the pic Boo posted til now. Good one!
