My meaning there is only that the truth for a 3 year old is not the same truth that will answer a 20 year old. You are right that truth is truth, but the whole truth would prolly kill us in our present state. We do not have the whole truth about anything yet, surely.
By the Spirit of The Lord.

You are right that truth is truth - This is correct.

The rest you have stated is incorrect.

Why yes I do.

We rule the Heavens,

in the Kingdom of God.

We made the almonds bud,

from Aaron's rod.


We all have Names,

that delight the Lord.

We Know all the Angels,

and the flaming sword.


We were with Jesus,

when He walked the Earth.

We were with Jesus,

before Mary gave birth.


We are sacred and Holy,

to the pure heart we be.

The secret of the Lord,

Who are we?

Not until you are able to replace it with a higher truth, it isn't. Your riddle might be relevant, but not to someone unable to hear it. You kind of end up being like tongues without interpretation when you utter truth that can't be heard for whatever reason, don't you think?

The answer is the seven spirits of God.

His words might be more credible if pride were not underlying all he has to say, and for that reason, most of what he says becomes irrelevant because of the spirit in which he saying what he has to say.

Yes, pride is a killer, for sure. I struggle with the same thing. Humility makes us open-minded to the truth, we get a little truth and become proud in our knowledge, and immediately become useless for anything else, leading (eventually) back to humility...

They are not my words.

And yes I have great pride.

I have pride without measure in my Father.

He is the idol of all that I am and know.

IT DOES COME THROUGH DOESN'T IT.

Re: Who is the Christ?

I am pretty sure God loves that characteristic flaw about me.

lol

After all because I idolize him so much he does have to live up to all my expectations.

AND THEY ARE GREAT.

greater than yours.
