Luke 8.4\n\n4The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life's worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not mature.

This is a great verse to support my ideas of creation. God's special creation the path that he would bring the Christ through the sons of Adam and Eve are the sons of Gos in that verse. The daughters of men were a natural creation of men that God used to populate the world...   Jim

First thing comes to mind is "The entire village of Sodom & Gommorah", !#2 The followers of God , as he led them out of egypt.  We complain so much to god that we are in  in such bondage, hard life ...work, work ,work ! When God sends moses to lead the israelites out of slavery, its still not enough ! We are ungrateful people, just like they were ! too bad , I often wonder why God still puts up with us ! { but im sure glad He does !}Sometimes I feel like Job, but would I have that much faith after losing everthing ? Id like to think so !

Well, in the book of Revelations, it says, "Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city". Rev 22:14\n\nYou could tie that in with the fall of Adam and Eve when they ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and the Lord sewed fig leaves for coverings for them when they knew they were naked....?

Paradisians\n\nCielosos (from the Spanish root "cielo" meaning heaven or sky...I mixed it up, so this isn't actually a word, but it sounds cool!)

Genesis 13:13\n\n13 Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.\n\nGenesis 19:4-13\n\n4 Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom—both young and old—surrounded the house. 5 They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them."\n\n 6 Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him 7 and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing. 8 Look, I have two daughters who have never slept with a man. Let me bring them out to you, and you can do what you like with them. But don't do anything to these men, for they have come under the protection of my roof."\n\n 9 "Get out of our way," they replied. And they said, "This fellow came here as an alien, and now he wants to play the judge! We'll treat you worse than them." They kept bringing pressure on Lot and moved forward to break down the door.\n\n 10 But the men inside reached out and pulled Lot back into the house and shut the door. 11 Then they struck the men who were at the door of the house, young and old, with blindness so that they could not find the door.\n\n 12 The two men said to Lot, "Do you have anyone else here—sons-in-law, sons or daughters, or anyone else in the city who belongs to you? Get them out of here, 13 because we are going to destroy this place. The outcry to the LORD against its people is so great that he has sent us to destroy it."\n\n\nBasically they were all homosexuals and God burned them to the ground.

A Good shephard defends his sheep by giving his life, when the wolves come he stands in their way and fights them and safeguards his sheep. But a Man who is not the owner of sheep but is hired by the owner of the sheep does'nt stand in the way of the wolves but he hides behind the sheep,Till wolves grab one of the sheeps and his life is saved.\n\nJesus is the good shephard he does'nt want his sheep to protect him, but he gives his life for them. What he did in the Garden of Gathsamne was an example of his love \n\nJesus Is Arrested\n   47And even as he said this, Judas, one of the twelve disciples, arrived with a mob that was armed with swords and clubs. They had been sent out by the leading priests and other leaders of the people. 48Judas had given them a prearranged signal: "You will know which one to arrest when I go over and give him the kiss of greeting." 49So Judas came straight to Jesus. "Greetings, Teacher!" he exclaimed and gave him the kiss.\n\n    50Jesus said, "My friend, go ahead and do what you have come for." Then the others grabbed Jesus and arrested him. 51One of the men with Jesus pulled out a sword and slashed off an ear of the high priest's servant.\n\n    52"Put away your sword," Jesus told him. "Those who use the sword will be killed by the sword. 53Don't you realize that I could ask my Father for thousands[g] of angels to protect us, and he would send them instantly? 54But if I did, how would the Scriptures be fulfilled that describe what must happen now?"\n\nJesus is the Good shephard and he did not want his sheep to fight for him, instead he gives his life for them. JESUS LOVES EVERYONE HE LOVES BOTH PIOUS AND SINNERS, HE GAVE HIS LIFE FOR THE SINNERS AND HE REALLY LOVES THEM. \n\nAS HE PRAYED FOR THOSE WHO NAILED HIM ON THE CROSS HOW WILL HE BE PLEASED WITH HIS FOLLOWERS IF THEY SATAT TO KILL THEM, THATS WHY CHRISTIANS DONT PUNISH THOSE WHO OFFENCE JESUS. ON THE OTHER HAND JESUS IS GOD HE DOES NOT NEED ANYONE TO FIGHT FOR HIM ON HIS ONE REQUEST GOD WOULD GRANT HIM ARMIES OF ANGELS. IF HE WANTS TO PUNISH HIS ENEMIES(even today) HE CAN PUNISH THEM ANYTIME, BUT HE LOVES THEM AND IS GIVING THEM CHANCE TO COME TO THE LIGHT. \n\nMOHAMMED WAS ALWAYS PROTECTED BY HIS FOLLOWERS THOUSANDS OF THEM DIED FOR HIM IN BATTLES, BUT HE DID NOT GAVE HIS LIFE FOR THEM. I DONT KNOW HOW MUCH HE LOVED HIS FOLLOWERS. BUT I KNOW ON THING THAT HE WANTED TO KILL HIS ENEMIES AND HATED THEM ALOT. \n\nWHO IS THE GOOD SHEPHARD?

I think that in the book of Genesis, it does mention a "Behemoth" of some ilk- with an enormous tail (ergo, it could not have been an elephant).\n\nAdditonal notes:\n\nIt is in the story of Noah and the ark, where it makes this reference.

3:16\nFor God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. \n\nKey word: "whosoever" that means you!\n\nYou should read The Prodigal Son, also known as The Lost Son is one of the best known parables of Jesus.\n\nThe story is found in Luke 15:11-32 of the New Testament of The Bible.\n\nGod bless you.

The closest thing that I can think of is that the Kabbalists label the middle piller of the Ein Sof (the 10 emanations of God) as being "The Son".  But they would make huge distinctions between this concept and how most Christians would see "the Son".

They are generally referred to as the giants I believe. The American Standard Version of the bible says...\n\n4.  The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them: the same were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown. \n\nThe King James says...\n\n4.  There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.\n\nThere is another reference to them later in Numbers 13:33...\n\n33.  And there we saw the Nephilim (the sons of Anak, who come from the Nephilim); and we seemed to ourselves like grasshoppers, and so we seemed to them."  \n\nSo they were a race of very tall people. \n\nSPECULATION MODE ON: \n\nI think I remember reading somewhere that Goliath would have been kin to the Nephilim. He was between 8 and 9 feet tall.

There's a passage I got memorized,\n                       seems appropriate for this\n                       situation: Ezekiel 25:17. "The path\n                       of the righteous man is beset on\n                       all sides by the inequities of the\n                       selfish and the tyranny of evil\n                       men.  Blessed is he who, in the\n                       name of charity and good will,\n                       shepherds the weak through the\n                       valley of darkness, for he is truly\n                       his brother's keeper and the finder\n                       of lost children.  And I will\n                       strike down upon thee with great\n                       vengeance and furious anger those\n                       who attempt to poison and destroy\n                       my brothers.  And you will know my\n                       name is the Lord when I lay my\n                       vengeance upon you."\n\nAlthough its a very inaccurate quote if you actually check that passage in a bible.

Jud 1:11  Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core. \nJud 1:12  These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; \nJud 1:13  Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.
