It's those very passages that work to erode one's own confidence even though it might not seem that way. Over time, you go from thinking that you can't do the impossible without Jesus to thinking you can't do anything without him.
Around and around we go, endless verbiage. Deidre, your mind is host to a parasite, a mind virus. As the man said:
Quote:"A temple is worth a dozen barracks; a militia man carrying a gun could control a small unarmed crowd only for as long as he was present; however, a single priest could put a policeman inside the head of every one of their flock, for ever."

Deidre. Did it ever once cross your mind that your only problem is, you need to grow up?
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.
