Not if they welcomed it. It's only forced on someone/something that doesn't want it to happen. Show where it states anywhere close to Marry to being ok with it, show me where she was in objection to it.

Yep, men and women can be just friends.

if you really believe I am a follower.. then I daresay your perceptions of me are wrong.. I am not a follower, I question, constantly.. if GOD told me to jump off a bridge.. I'd tell him NO.. because I know (logically) he would never ask that of me..

I have led quite a remarkable life so far.. and I'm not done yet either.. but I always look to him as a sounding board to better understand myself and others reactions to truth and life.. although at times.. I can't always comprehend the purpose.. I can change a) how I react to it.. and b) whether or not I take action.. wherein comes, I believe, the Free Will part

True. I think some people will assume the 'friendship' referred to here is just that, while others will assume it is a low key primer to expected romantic connection. I spose there needs to be flexibility in our definitions of friendship with the potential love interest.

As such, I think men and women can be friends.

And keeping it in context of what we're talking about here. God has explicitly told us not to do what that man did in that church, therefore it is completely against God's will..

Yes, he took on the form of a servant.... we already been through this close to a million times now Funches. He humbled himself and took on the form of a breathing person in the flesh.

No my friend. Jesus isn't REQUIRED to do anything. He does the will of the Father out of love, just as I do the will of Jesus.

What are you talking about Funches?

A prophecy is PURELY knowledge of an even that will happen. That's it.

It's not God made a prophecy so it will happen because he did. No, he gave the prophecy to give knowledge of something that will take place. Not because it has to, not because he forced it to happen, but because he already knew it would happen and shared that knowledge with us.

just because he proclaims such.. doesn't make it so..

I believe it's easier for this kind of criminal to choose the 'insanity' route as a defense as there's no other justifiable way to explain their insidious acts otherwise.. saying GOD told me to.. and to be sent off to a cushy asylum so they can keep ranting like a lunatic sounds easier than having to worry about a harsh prison life.. just sayin.. there COULD be a method to their madness....

I don't agree.. there is ALWAYS free will.. however if one allows their naivete to out-way logic.. then they deserve whatever 'fate' they allow to happen.. but I believe that even if one says it's a PROPHECY.. one still has the right to stand up and fight.. even though the prophecy may dictate they lay down and die (so to speak)

Was not influenced by God, what he did was totally against God's laws and will. Regardless if that is what he claimed or not in an attempt to justify his actions.

How so?

A prophesy is purely knowledge of something that will happen in the future. Doesn't mean it forces it to happen.

We do the will of Jesus, which in turn we are doing the will of the Father. As they are "one". And again the word translated into "one" is speaking of the will of the being, what they desire.

Again, Jesus is the Word and in the beginning was God and the Word.

Yes Jesus does do the will of the Father. What does that have anything to do with what we're talking about here?

How is he a wannabe? He is our God. He is the one that created us, he has that authority to judge us, he has the authority to give us life. He has total authority over us, thus he is our God.

Jesus is OUR God Funches. He isn't God over God the father, which is why he refers to his father as "God" eg., "My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me".

Then we have "do not tempt the lord THY God" or in other words, do not tempt the Lord your God.

And no Satan doesn't do the will of the Father. And which is why he was kicked out of Heaven and locked in chains. And later will be destroyed in the lake of fire.

And mankind follows the laws of Jesus Christ. He is the one whom made us, he is the one whom directs us on how we are to live.

No Funches, again after again after again after again after again, the WORD "God" is used in reference to them because it means authority. I do no know if in the original scriptures it contained God's name or not. But in the english translation it translates it to "God" and is capitolized to show it is a proper noun eg., a name.

In this verse keeping it in context we can see that it is referring to God the Father and the Word which is Jesus in the flesh.

Already did. But God has caused nor instigated, nor anything along those lines with any massacre. So didn't know what you were talking about.

Again, what are you talking about? Show some evidence where God "controlled' Mary for those 9 months... show me where he forced her to do anything. She could have very well freaked out and killed the child either while in her or when it came out if she had wanted to. Please show me where there was any free will taken away.
