Should We Pray About Everything
	Hi Paul_James We have the freedom to choose anything we want - that is God's gift of free will, but sometimes the motivation behind our shopping choices can be slightly skewed. Just a thought. Elsie, a precious story indeed. :)

Did God Create Sin Or Did We

It is my understanding that sin came out of God's gift of free will to man - to choose to obey or disobey. In Isaiah 54:16-17 God says: "See, it is I who created the blacksmith who fans the coals into flame and forges a weapon fit for its work. And it is I who have created the destroyer to work havoc; NO WEAPON FORGED AGAINST YOU WILL PREVAIL..." In this case, our choices decide if the weapon (sin) will prevail or not. Hope this is helpful.

Force Our Son To Tithe From Job
	1st cliff In 1 Corinthians 4:7 the apostle Paul asks, ". . .And what do you have that you did not receive. . .?" Acts 4:34-37 and 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 doesn't mention the word tithe, but does speak of bringing offerings to a central place to be distributed for the benefit of the Body of Christ. I thought those passages referred to the tithe.

Ten Commandments Gone Now
	Sorry about that. Thank you for the correction and thank you Janice also. It surely makes one think. Blessings to all! :)

Is The Kingdom Of God Present Now
	I think so Elsie. The presence of the Holy Spirit throughout the earth signifies that...doesn't it? He told them, "The secret of the kingdom of God has been given to you. But to those on the outside everything is said in parables. ." Mark 4:11 If I am in error, please forgive me.

Blog Changed to 85 Word Limit
	A great opportunity to learn to be a better editor. With thanks to a dedicated webmaster - without you there wouldn't be any blogs at all. God bless you. "There's a great power in words, if you don't hitch too many of them together." Josh Billings Sorry - just couldn't resist. :)

Ten Commandments Gone Now
	A simplistic view perhaps, but I don't see any conflict between the 10 commandments and the new commandment of love. The top 3 commandments are about loving God first. The next 7 are about loving one another as He has loved us. If this view is wrong, someone please correct it. Thank you

We Should Have Pity On Judas
	I don't think it had to be Judas, his own choices made it so. Joshua 24:15-CHOOSE FOR YOURSELVES Whom you will serve. **Judas chose wrongly. Matthew 6:24 -You cannot serve both God and Money. **Judas tried. Matt.16:24 -deny himself and take up his cross. **Judas took up his purse instead. My God isn't a puppet-master. Great question Eloy. Thanks
