Send who your way? Even in the ministry of Jesus Christ Himself, faith had to precede healing, and aggressive unbelief cut people off from whatever benefits they may have needed.Quote:

Think about this, though. What percentage of his patients does the doctor lose? The answer is 100% eventually. What percentage does Jesus lose? The answer is 0% eventually. At best, this life is temporary.Quote:

I thought much like most people, I'm basically good, try to follow the Golden Rule, no major mortal sins, I'm married, children, making good money. I figured I'm more good than bad, so that should get past the pearly gates so to speak. What did I need God for? I was doing just fine.
Then I fell, I did something definitely bad, hid it, tired to ignore it, I could not.
Some people call it conviction or guilt or whatever. I needed forgiveing, and all at once what I just read about or was told about, stuff that I knew in my head - Jesus christ dying for sins and for your salvation - clicked in my heart.
Now that was within the past 3 years. I'm no kid. I 'm scientifically trained and there is enough "proof" through any apologetics website to back up the Bible, and Jesus. The more I search the more I find, and personally, He has answered prayers - not all - but more than I deserve.
Grace and Peace

Why we do not know, all we can do is trust chrst in his choices
