We can talk about so much that the devil doing in the world that we forget that, hey, we're supposed to be praising Jesus around here.

MikeB,

Just start threads that interest you or that you think would interest others. Others will do the same.

I found out God’s love AFTER I was saved, by making mistakes and being forgiven. That is a powerful message to me. He stood by my side and lead me out of my mistakes by His Spirit. It was the most beautiful experience next to being baptized and filled with His Spirit!

We have MUCH to be thankful for and MUCH to look forward to!

We hear many times about the revelation of the oneness of God which is important, but a revelation of God's love for us is just as important.

I am thankful that His love is unfailing. There are many things and people who will fail me, but God's love will never fail me.

I am thankful that His love, just like His grace and mercy isn't dependent on anything that I do or not do. He freely gives me these gifts from His heart.

I was amazed and blessed by Paul's understanding of Psalm 8 as we read in the first two chapters of Hebrews! ...talk about His love!

What's so powerful is that Jews in Paul's day were backsliding away from Jesus because other Jews were convincing them that Jesus is not the Messiah, and they argued that the Messiah is not God and neither would He die, especially, or be made so low as to be born in s stable, let alone be born as a man!

They understand all the prophecies of Messiah such as all the things that make him greater than angels, but even Jesus stumped them when He told them of Psalm 110:1. They knew that was a prophecy of Messiah. God tell the Messiah to sit at his right hand til he makes his enemies his footstool. And they knew Messiah was son of David. So, Jesus asked them why David called his son "my Lord" if he was David's Son?

So Paul also stated that the Psalm 8 statement that asks, "What is man that thou art mindful of him and the son of man that thou remberest him?" was about Messiah. It talks about putting all beneath Messiah's feet, like Psalm 110:1 did!

But Paul said VISITING man and being made LOWER THAN ANGELS shows us the Oneness of God and deity of Jesus as well as explains His love for us.

More later when time permits.
