True or false?

Two things:

What is the 'world' that it rises up against a believer? And how is it, or why is it that God loves 'people' more than anything?

"Yes, I Believe"

When I said that I would follow
It was with an honest heart
But I didn't fully understand the cost
'Cause there are saints throughout the ages
And there are those today
Who show us what it really means to carry the cross
That only fuels my devotion
No matter what comes I will say

[Chorus]
Yes, I believe
I believe with all that is in me
Yes, I believe
Though the world rises up against me
I will be faithful
To the choice I have made
I am determined
I will not be ashamed
To live so the whole world can see
That yes, I believe

There will never be a reason
To lose this confidence
For I have found where my assurance lies
It is not in my own power
But in who my savior is
And the truth of this conviction
Makes me shout to the sky

[Repeat Chorus]

Yes, I believe he is risen
Yes, I believe we are forgiven
Yes, I believe and one day we'll see him
And together we'll say

[Repeat Chorus]

"More Than Anything"

God loves people more than anything
God loves people more than anything
And more than anything, He wants them to know
He'd rather die than let them go
Cause God loves people more than anything

God loves the weary when they're too weak to try
He feels their pain, He knows their shame
He cries with those who cry
He won't give up or walk away when other people do
Cause God loves people more than anything

God loves people more than anything
God loves people more than anything
And more than anything, He wants them to know
He'd rather die than let them go
Cause God loves people more than anything

God loves the wounded who've stumbled into sin
He reaches down and pulls them out
And cleans them off again
And He will heal the broken heart that's given up on love
Cause God loves people more than anything

God loves people more than anything
God loves people more than anything
And more than anything He wants them to know
He'd rather die than let them go
Cause God loves people more than anything

More than anything, He wants us to go
And show the world so they will know
That God loves people
More than anything

It isn't the 'group', per se, but the lyrics make the hearer wonder: 'What is this 'world' that is supposed to 'rise' up against me and what is this God loves 'people' more than anything? Does God love 'people' more than God loves 'Righteousness'?

Or are these songs trying to have the 'believers' have more 'empathy/compassion/concern/care, etc...' to the 'world' or 'non believers'? What are these songs implying to the believing listener?

Are these songs about 'going out and baptizing in The Name of The Father, and of The Son and of The Holy Spirit'? Because after all, when 'they' go out and 'preach' to the Nations/persons about God, The Father and of The Son, they are also supposed to 'baptize' them in The Name of The Father and of The Son and of The Holy Spirit.


Matthew 28:19-20 "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen."

So what is the true or false question?

Click to expand...

Here is a true or false question...

In your own opinion, is God 'Lawful' or 'legal'? Does HE promote 'Law keeping' or does HE promote 'illegal' ? In your own opinion, which does/would God be more of?

If you say 'legal' then it would also apply to Church and The Holy Word. Being 'legal' as in Lawful or Truthful with The Holy Word. If you say 'illegal', then it would still also apply to Church and The Holy Word. Being 'illegal' as in 'personal interpretation' or The Holy Word being 'changeable'.


Question:

Can the 'day of rest' be changed from Saturday to Sunday?

Some say 'man' cannot nor should change the 'Law(s) of God'. Some say man should not change the Day of Rest from Saturday to Sunday.


Question:

Do these 'Day of Rest' hours fall within the same 'time' hours in all of the world?

Is Friday Sundown to Saturday sundown the same as Friday Sundown to Saturday Sundown in Y'srael and in New York or California? Does Friday Sundown to Saturday Sundown occur simultaneously for all three locations on Earth? So which 1 has the correct 'Day of Rest'?


Is the Day of Rest subjective to myself or is The Day of Rest subjective to God?


If God is The God of Y'srael, should their Day of Rest be the 'standard' Day of Rest for the entire World?


Why is Israel called Israel and why is Jerusalem called Jerusalem and why are Jews called Jews and why is Jesus called Jesus IF there are no letters, I or J, nor phonetic sounds to the letter J, in the Hebrew alphabet?


Does Yehovah sound the same as Jehovah to you?
Does Yerushalem sound the same as Jerusalem to you?


Shalom/Salem/Salaam means 'peace'.

Do these sound a little like Solomon?

Question:

If Palestina was always in Y'srael, why are they fighting as if they never were?



True or false?

The provinces of Palestine in the time of Jesus:
Judea, Idumea, Samaria, Galilee and Perea


Is there a (J)esus, (J)udea, (I)dumea, Samar(i)a, Gal(i)lee in Y'srael in those days? In other words, is this a true factual map if the letters (J) and (I) were/are not used within Y'srael?




BIBLE MAPS of ancient Palestine



It just 'appears' archaic and old but in actuality is not. This is a false map representing the 'land' when (J)esus walked the earth due to the fact that there were and still is not any letters J or I used in the Hebrew alphabet within Y'srael.


After much hesitation, the emperor Augustus decided in 4 B.C (?). to divide King Herod‘s kingdom among his three surviving sons, as Herod had advised him to do before his death.


'Latin' way of spelling Jerusalem is Jerusalem?


But we do know that when Y'srael was taken into The Babylonian captivity, that many 'outsiders' came into Y'srael and began making their own dwelling places; hence where 'palestina' came from. From those that entered in and made their 'homes' in Y'srael while the children of Y'srael were in Babylonian Captivity.



Who do you think the Rabb(i)n(i)cal (J)ews were/are? They were NOT true children of Y'srael, that's for sure.

Israel is supposedly the 'gay' mecca of The World now days. But within Israel, how many of them are true sons of Y'srael and not sons of those that entered in during the Babylonian Captivity?


Although Muslims are not truly sons of Y'srael, they were given certain 'Laws' in the Holy Qur'an. What are they in relation to sexualities? Are they 'different' than the Laws in the Gentile places? Some 'gentile' places have no such 'laws' against certain sexualities and the Laws of God are not 'held accountable' for from these gentile places. 4 laws of God have been given to the Gentiles as written in Acts 15.

1. no blood
2. nothing strangled
3. nothing offered to idols
4. sexual immorality



nothing strangled? how is any 'meat animal' slaughtered, then? If we are not to 'kill/murder', how can animals which are to be eaten not supposed to be 'killed/murdered' or 'strangled'

sexual immorality? I think this applies first to the females and second to the males. If the females learned to be proper with their own female bodies, many males would not have the opportunity to commit sexual immorality.


What is properness for females? Saying 'no' to male advances or saying 'no' to personal 'sexual desires' is 1 way.



These same 'food' laws and 'sexual immorality' laws apply to every person; both (J)ew and Gentile. After these 4, then the other laws can be added. Instead of asking what he or she is not doing correctly with and towards God, look in your refrigerator and see what sorts of 'meats' there might be which might have been murdered for you and for anyone who desires to purchase them at the local grocery stores.


Would not eating 'meats' be too difficult for a believer? If it is, then maybe I can share the knowledge that 'meats' are murdered and killed for many; not for a few, but to save life rather than destroy life might be a more Godly way to be Godly.


I might not be able to not have 'meats' but that doesn't mean I should keep that knowledge to myself. Who knows? Maybe another person who hears and understands this about 'meats' will BE able to abstain or refrain and be 'better' off for doing so. Who knows? Why not give others the opportunity to be Godly even though I might be unable? But am I really unable or am I 'unwilling'?

Psalm 150:6 "Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD."


The first chicken said to the second chicken, 'I have breath and I praise my creator'.
The second chicken said to the first chicken, 'Don't let the humans know or else they might think you're crazy'.



If humans are not to eat 'meats', how are they supposed to survive? In peace and in goodness. Do 'meats' promote/breed violent inward emotions and thoughts and behavior(s) some how? Does the human body go through 'addiction withdrawals' if they stop eating 'meats'? Does/can the human body become 'addicted' to 'meats'? Does/can 'meats' change the person's mental clarity, thinking and reasoning?

If 'wine' is consumed, does/can wine change the person's mental clarity, thinking and reasoning if wine is drunk at least once per day during meals? Are 'meats' in at least 1 meal per day 7 days per week every day and every week of a person's entire adult life? How many 'full animals' do you think a person can 'eat' with 1 'meat' meal per day every day in their adult life? Now times that by every person you know which does the same and ask where all those animals came from..


if 1 steer produces about 410 pounds of 'meat', and if I eat 1 pound of meat every 2 days, 410 pounds would get me through 820 days. So for every 820 days, or 2 years 90 days, I would have eaten up 1 full 'steer'. 1 full steer for myself alone.. Then those around me which also eats 1 pound every 2 days... multiply that by the human population on the earth which eats 'meats' on a regular basis.


Let's take a general number such as 100 million.

Every 2 years and 90 days, each person in that 100 million would have eaten up 1 full 'steer'. That is 100 million steers every 2 years 90 days.

How quick can 'steer' reproduce and grow to maturity?

The U.S alone has over 325 million persons.

True of false that man needs 'meat' to eat in order to survive?
