Confidence in your beliefs.

Hi Real Life

If that's the case, my apologies (I was going from memory, which is rather old now).

As I'm curious, and the link you provided didn't take me to a proper page, do you have the bible reference? I still have my bible with me, though I don't read it these days unless something like this makes me curious

You might try cutting and pasting the link into the address line of your browser if clicking the link didn't work.

The references are :

Feeding of 4000 --
Matt 15:38
Mark 8:9

Feeding of 5000 --
Matt 14:21
Mark 6:44

Jesus reviews both events in one conversation --
Matt 16:9-10
Mark 8:19-20

Just wunder'n
Three reporters are sent to cover the same story. What happens? You get who, what, when, where, why, etc. But you don't get it verbatim. Each sees the same story perhaps from a different angle and/or notices different details. Still the same basic story. Four Gospel writers covered the same story in a similar fashion.

that flashing yellow one
Sorry, I thought it was a bit much too.

Kate; See above.

taking that word and using it in way's he never intended
Most people tend to ignore warnings!

18 "I am bearing witness to everyone that hears the words of the prophecy of this scroll: If anyone makes an addition to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this scroll; 19 and if anyone takes anything away from the words of the scroll of this prophecy, God will take his portion away from the trees of life and out of the holy city, things which are written about in this scroll. (Revelation 22:18-19)

See also Deuteronomy 4:2; 12:32 & 2 John 9.

none of that supports your belief that God doesn't have absolute foreknowledge. just because he sent an angel to scout the situation and then allowed abraham to plead for the righteous, doesn't mean that God didn't know the outcome of the whole situation before it took place.
nor is it a sound basis for your belief that God knew nothing of adam and eve's downfall before they were born. (which is how this debate began) are you still going to support this view even when scripture (1peter) shows that your wrong?.

none of that supports your belief
Thats your point of view and I respect it. Thanks Kate.

likewise hank and God bless

Mutual.
