Prayer not working

[Brakeman]

First thing you assume you know God's perfect plan and how He works it, and you do not.

"How could god change his previously perfect plans due to prayer"

Does not presuppose knowledge of his plans. Do you have a reading disability or a comprehension disability? Again you avoid answering the actual question but instead try to dance around it in a rather dishonest way.

God speaks to use through the Spirit, since you do not know how that works the Spirit does not reside in you. You must be quite dull minded to believe Christians think the Holy Spirit reside in the kidneys, mind or heart.
The Holy Spirit is a being which can move into our being and aid us in our daily lives.
Playing apparently is all you know, typically childish.

No, childish is your dimwitted perception that I was referring to my beliefs about where the soul resides. I haven't believed in such silly nonsense as a soul since I was a child. The pithed brains that thought the kidneys were the home of the soul were the early christians and bible writers. If you were as well read about the scriptures as you claim and knew anything other than modern interpretations you would know that.

Nephros (Greek) does mean kidney, but is used metaphorically to mean the inmost mind (self).
Kilyah (Hebrew) also means kidney, but is used metaphorically to mean the mind, innermost self.

How would that start to become understood metaphorically? What quality of the kidneys were chosen to embody the meaning that the writer wanted to communicate? When an author chooses to use a metaphor there is a quality that one intends to communicate. For example, the metaphor "the "rock" of ages", makes sense since the rock is hard, strong, and unmoving, which is what the writers wanted to convey with that sentence. "The sock of ages" makes no sense as there is no quality of a sock that a writer would be intending to portray. So what about a kidney was the writer or jesus trying to convey to the bible audience?

For acts 19, the baptism the people were baptized into was John's baptism, Paul baptized them into Christ the Lord Jesus, because only Jesus can save.

Really? John didn't know about jesus when he baptized them? John didn't inspire "john 3:16?"
Explain this in detail please.. I don't know the scriptures' meaning her as well as you.

Now a question for you, tell me why is it that when one loses a loved one, a wife,husband, girlfriend ect. do you not get a head ache, instead you ache (feel the hurt) in one's chest. Why is it that when one is sad they feel the sadness in their chest, by your statement one should get a terrible head ache.

Because the brain sends off an avalanche of hormones that causes your heart to race and you can feel the surge of pumping in your chest. Nothing more.


If you want to drop the smirks and derogatory language I would be happy to do so in kind.
