Swedenborgian Lecture about Omnipotence
That said I find these lectures particularly enlightening. If you do take the time to watch it...maybe over lunch...I'm curious about your observations, not just about the content, but the delivery as well. The pastor has a quirky approach that I find entertaining.
I find when trying to learn time goes by quickly, so I did not find that long. I love the way he teaches, he knows how to hold the attention of those who are listening. I know next to nothing about Swedenborg, I am a Southern Baptist as you know and have no idea what you know about this denomination. I can tell you I differ on somethings with the traditional baptist and some off my differences are fairly big. What I'm trying to get at is I agree for the most part with what I heard, I'm pretty sure if I knew more about Swedenborg I might find more to disagree with in the lecture. However I do not think the lecture at it's face value would differ much from what most Southern Baptist believe. Thanks for posting the lecture. God's omnipotence will always go through His love and truth, if it did not would there even be a universe, chaos only leads to destruction.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
