God “relented” meaning the wrath of His justice was appeased by His boundless mercy. We can either enter to heaven by Gods justice or through His mercy. No one can enter through his justice, because we have all committed infidelity. But all can enter in through the door of His mercy. But he wants us to humble ourselves and ASK.
Both God's Justice and his Mercy work in tandem though. He could not give us Mercy without fulfilling his attribute of Justice.
so it isn't either or, Jesus took the wrath of God the Father so that he could give us Mercy.
Christianity is confusing
can someone please explain the convo a bit?
Talking about prayer
one says you shouldnt pray, and other says you should?
thats all i understood
I never said you shouldn't pray
oh
well then i didnt understand anything lol
I said or was trying to say was that praying to Mary or the Saints in Heaven is unbiblical because Jesus is our only mediator, and also that we should pray that if it is according God's will then let it be done.
because we cannot sway God's will but prayer is still important because it can bring us into a closer with God.
Every prayer that’s everything but a “thank you Lord” Prayer has a “if it be in thy will” in it somewhere
oh, makes a lot of sense now
thanks alot for clarifying that
Sorry for the long read. It’s from an article. I hope you’ll read.
First, God expects us to pray for one another. We see this in both the Old and New Testaments.
In a dream, God commanded King Abimelech to ask Abraham to intercede for him: “For [Abraham] is a prophet and he will pray for you, so you shall live” (Gen. 20:7). When the Lord is angry with Job’s friends because they did not speak rightly about God, he tells them, “Let my servant Job pray for you because I will accept his [prayer], lest I make a terror on you” (Job 42:8).
Paul wrote to the Romans: “I exhort you, brothers, through our Lord Jesus Christ and through the love of the Spirit, to strive with me in prayers to God on my behalf, that I may be delivered from the disobedient in Judaea and that my ministry may be acceptable to the saints in Jerusalem, so that in the joy coming to you through the will of God I may rest with you” (Rom. 15:30-32).
James says: “Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects” (James 5:16-17). Thus, according to Scripture, God wants us to pray for one another. This must mean that prayer for one another cannot detract from the role of Jesus Christ as our one mediator with God.
yes, one can pray for another thats not problem imo
but dead people cant
It's the other way, christian are Judaism 2.0
There isn't really a "proper way" to pray. Just do what feels right to you.
Where’s the proof?
could you explain a bit more?
Well, there is no set way to pray given in the Bible. A prayer could be anything from, "God please help me with something" to "Dear God, I ask you to help me with something."
A prayer can be one sentence or it could be a 5 minute prayer
and every home beith a church, a holy temple to god, if so the resident chooses

Aw jeez. I am listening to David Weiss, an "ex athiest" who is talking about how he tried to prove the world was not flat, and prooved it was flat and found god and that a flat earth model is the only one that makes sense if you beleive in a creator.
