Last time I heard Paul speak my head exploded in a good way. No one I know can speak to these areas like him. I am so lucky to see him in person. If you can hear him in person, you will enjoy it.
Telling God what He has to do & which ways He has to go & which not, would be utterly idiotic, nonsensical & vain for any human. Isaiah 55:8--9 tells about the otherness of God, and verse 11 reveals the effects of God´s word & that it will never come back to God empty - כֵּ֣ן יִֽהְיֶ֤ה דְבָרִי֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר יֵצֵ֣א מִפִּ֔י לֹֽא־יָשׁ֥וּב אֵלַ֖י רֵיקָ֑ם כִּ֤י אִם־עָשָׂה֙ אֶת־אֲשֶׁ֣ר חָפַ֔צְתִּי וְהִצְלִ֖יחַ אֲשֶׁ֥ר שְׁלַחְתִּֽיו Our heavenly father appears exactly as in the parable of the lost sheep in Luke 15. Verse 4 uses the phrase καὶ πορεύεται ἐπὶ τὸ ἀπολωλὸς ἕως εὕρῃ αὐτό = and he goes after the one having been lost until he finds it! Does that sound like God´s ignorance? Nope! It seems as it is - Jesus Will Go Down Any Road to Find Us! Thank you, Mr Wm. Paul Young! And thank you for THE SHACK! Kind regards from Germany!
All that which the Bible says has to bow unto the victory of Jesus Christ at the cross for all mankind. All will believe and confess His Name and glory.
@JEFFQUICKLE9 Your comment 7 months ago.. That "old story book" you referred to, is all about Jesus and Jesus is all about you. And yes, those who experienced the new life in Christ, they défnitely do understand this book, as these group are no longer the natural man, but the spiritual who understands the revelations of God’s Spirit. What a privilege to know and experience both the Father and the Son!
I'm the 1! Jehovah Jireh! The good news is we are already loved and saved. The saving knowledge is accepting it and living from that freedom and love. Thank you and praise the Lord!

@Francis Cafazzo I believe I understand the question and I appreciate it. I want to share some scripture and my opinion as best I can, but most importantly I implore you to pray and ask for clarification and understanding. Be open to the truth that may shake you, but test all spirits. God is love and comes in the spirit of love, wisdom and liberation. For me, the more I lean into the voice of our savior I am reminded that our sins are not counted against us (2 Cor 5:19) and we are only ever enemies of God in our minds (Col 1:21). More importantly as I already said, God is Love and there is no fear in Christ. Fear has to do with punishment and if both exist in us, that means love is just not perfected yet. (1 John 4:18) or not brought to full expression. Christ said the judgement on this world was that fear keeps us in hiding, keeping us from maturity in love that only happens in the light of God for all to see. (John 3:19-21) When we, with our free will, choose to create a world not centered on the love of Christ we will create a world with a demiurge at the center. An antagonist that counts our sins against us, judging us and keeping us from the grace available every moment. Chaos is necessary too, for a time, but not a supreme force to be feared and thus worshipped. Christ on the cross shows us the eternal now. The Lamb that was slain before the foundations of the world. Yes people will choose evil and the environment that allows evil even until the end, but the supremacy of Christ is that He is King of the universe and His will is perfect unity. His prayer is that all believers are made one in Him as He is in God. (John 17) Why? So that the glory, knowledge and love in Him will be in them to it’s fullest. Why? So the world will know the truth. Then what? It keeps going until ALL come to repentance. (John 12:31-32)(2 Peter 3:9)(Romans 5:18) Until we individually accept this fact, then ultimately everyone accepts it - wrath, fear, hopelessness and any other evil remains. But the objective truth is and always has been, God loves us ALL. My faith in Christ gives me peace that the will of God beats out even our worst, self-destructive stubbornness in the end. Every knee will bend and every tongue confess, but I believe gladly. After the fires of God’s holiness burn everything that is not essential away we will see clearly. Those without sanctification in this life may be in for a ruder awakening, but Christ is right now, and has always been, at the center of creation holding it all together for love not punishment. All things by, through and for Him. The best news is that all are bound to sin so God can have mercy on us ALL. (Romans 11:32) This isn’t a transaction. It’s NEWS! It’s a fact we have to grapple with and that becomes a process of love liberating and perfecting us in the image of Christ. Who knew no sin and NO condemnation. Who doesn’t require blood sacrifices, but mercy. Who commands we love everything and everyone beyond measure so that God’s true character is made manifest in us all on earth. Not to alienate the other, but draw in those prodigals finally exhausted from swimming against the tide. Hope this helps! Peace and love to you.
The ‘wrath’ of God is HIS REFINING FIRE OF LOVE. He continues to pursue the one who’s lost & He won’t stop in this realm or the next until anything that hinders that individual’s perception of Him has been removed so that that one can SEE & respond on their own accord. For LOVE (God) is greater than death (Song of songs8).
I agree with must of the argument here, and disagree with some. Like how he mentions that there are Muslim Christians. What defines a Muslim Christian is usually the realization that Christ is Lord, and then the denunciation (maybe not a public one because it could get them killed) of their Islamic religious practices and the adopting of Christian religious practices which to his point, the religious Christian practice is pretty simple. The four major parts are prayer (which is already a custom to them), having a biblical ethical code (which is almost always at least acceptable within their customs I think), but where the rubber meets the road are the other two which is assembling with fellow Christians regularly and reading the Bible.
Jesus found us in His cross-events, as mankind were included. It's only us who need to awake from the deep sleep the fall of Adam has brought mankind into. Arise and shine, for your Light hás come!
Please Help me I Believe Jesus Is The Son of God and God The Son of The Holy Trinity I Believe Jesus Shed His Blood and Died in my place to Pay for All my Sins He Was Buried Then 3 Days Later Jesus Arose From The Dead!!! But I am struggling with some Sins that I honestly don’t know how to quit I hate my Sins But I genuinely don’t know how to stop them Am I still Saved because of my Faith In Jesus or am I Not Saved because of my Sins? Thank you for All your Help and Time God Bless you
This sounds like a broken theology and teaching. It seems like it puts no emphasis on truth and the necessity for the narrow road that leads to life. It appears that it embraces the wide road that leads to destruction and the many, many, many lies we would rather believe, worship and follow. It also appears to contradict Luke 14:26 _If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple._ I would like to clarify what the fact that Jesus will go down any road to find us, really means. It means that no matter how sinful, depraved and humiliating path we put ourselves on, Jesus is humble enough to follow us in a hell of our own making. He is relentlessly coming to save us and lead us back to the narrow road of truth that leads to life, no matter how much we have strayed, sinned and deviated from the narrow road. Matthew 7:13-14
@@williamoarlock8634 I don't think that's right. There is an objective reality, an actual truth of the matter, an actual reality. And not only is there real world with real facts about it, but we can discover them. And when we adjust our lives to live in accordance with the truth, this is good for us. We know the universe is intelligible. It was made with a single mind, a single truth that ordered it all. No hypothesis in history of the world has more scientific confirmation than belief in the universal, eternal and singular truth. Truth reigns regardless if we understand it, believe it or don’t. It's up to us to realize this fact and adjust our life accordingly. Seek the truth. Truth is one. Not knowing the truth does not lessen the impact of our folly due to ignorance. Falling still hurts regardless how familiar we are with gravity or whether or not we believe in it. Only truth can set us free from lies that we love, that keep us imprisoned.
All is of God. This includes disease and birth defects. Just because we don't understand the means to the end doesn't mean it's unfruitful. God has made all things beautiful in its time yet he has placed eternity in our hearts so that we are not able to understand the works of God from beginning to end.
@QUICK-TRIPS "who is listening" is a relative term. Who has been given ears to hear with is the absolute perspective the flesh of man desires to throw out. We often struggle with the means by which God executes his plan because we're ignorant of his intended good the means bring to fruition. It is an experience of evil God gives to the sons of humanity in order to humble them. God had made everything beautiful in its time yet He had placed "eternity" in our hearts so we are not able to comprehend the scope of his works from beginning to end. (See Ecc1:13 & Ecc3:11)
@William Oarlock86 Would an instance of mass child rape by His children be any worse than causing His own Son to be crucified? Isaiah 53:9-11 CLV(i) 9 And He is given His tomb with the wicked, a cave from the rich, in His death. For He does no wrong, and no deceit is in His mouth, 10 yet Yahweh desires to crush Him, and He causes Him to be wounded. Should you place His soul for a guilt approach, He shall see a seed. He shall lengthen His days, and the desire of Yahweh shall prosper in His hand." 11 From the toil of His soul shall He see light. And He shall be satisfied by His knowledge. My righteous Servant shall justify many, and with their depravities shall He be burdened."
@William Oarlock86 Your mother experienced a great evil to bring you forth out of her womb. Did the end justify the means? The entire creation is suffering the pains of labor. Being ignorant of which shall not stay His hand.

Prayer for me
The disciples of Jesus 7:34 were first called Christians at Antioch, in the book of Acts.
That’s great! Don’t be a “Christian “ be a Buddhist -follower of Jesus. Avoid the labels, find the life.
