Let's see, you are also "people" (unless you believe you are superior to the rest), so how come you do understand his justice. And if you don't, then what the hell are you preaching about? > Clearly, when we > (mankind) made the wrong choice in the beginning He would have been > justified to wipe us out.

Maybe I have more love than justice? Maybe my love is stronger than God's?

However, a believer (specifically a > Christian believer) will swallow their pride, non-believers will not. So the secret is to swallow? Either you swallow or else...... Oh, God is sooooo loving. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
