Ok, and this accepts the illusion of time,
which a first-year physics student has seen past?
Not interested in being...accused of dope smoking again,
or anything, but surely it isn't too hard to see that there is no
"time," to God.
"Never said it was capricious. (Every few thousand years? Capricious? ) Asked if He might do it again. Think He will? Are we young adults now, perhaps?"
Do what again? Send another Savior? And I have to pretty much agree with
all of AYR's words--see how satan is able to make perfectly healthy red meat, eggs--
um, I see "bananas, never eat them..."--into bad things, while millions of Frenchmen
eat a dozen eggs a day, and live to ripe old ages, laughing in your general direction.
BAM, continue sucking down your sterilized cow milk, and being scared
of butter, or Muslims. Quack.
"Are we young adults yet?"
The wheat grows with the tares,
leaving us with the dichotomy there, imo, so
the best answer is yes, and no?
Are you (2nd you) running from evil,
or voting for it? The Revelation is quite plain to me,
that things will change when believers refuse to participate
in the earthly kingdoms, and not before then.
"When will God say "ENOUGH?"
Never. Not gonna happen. A couple human near-extinctions,
with a few thousand year detour to illuminate the folly
of having an earthly "king," are absolutely no sweat to God.
Heaven does not change. God will not override our free will
and "make" things perfect here; that is the job of the
"Prepared Bride."
Until we are...prepared, to stand up non-violently,
to the death, for what is right--
--The kingdom of Heaven beside us--
nothing is going to change.
If you are scared of satan? and Armaggedon?
Get behind me.
I was just wondering if God might change the requirements for humans again. Sheesh!

Sigh.
OK, if "there is no 'time' to God", then how come He has completely different methods of saving us in the OT and in the NT? Try sacrificing a goat now, and it won't work. It did work 3000 years ago. (At least, according to typical Christian theology, which you don't have to agree with, if you don't want to. Of course. )

Um, "if" there is no time to God? "A thousand years is to God a single day," etc. Do you not grasp that the Law was given to show sin, and the need for Grace? To man. We did not do sacrifices for God's benefit, but to illuminate that sin=death, and blood must be shed.
Then, when it became obvious that we could not follow
10 really obviously good rules, the need for Grace becomes obvious;
but accepting Grace is much more difficult than offering sacrifice.
Yes, it "worked" 3000 years ago, but not like is commonly supposed.
Meanwhile, nothing has changed for God, and nothing will change
in that sense, ever, for Him; perfect is perfect.

Who said 'there is no time to God'?
BTW, sacrificing a goat didn't work back then either, according to Hebrews.
