I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt and will go against my better judgement here.
Quote:1.) how do I know this was a neighbor?
Do you have a reading disability? That was not the question.
In luke 11-5 to 13 it clearly states that it is a friend, NOT a neighbour. Why do you insist saying it was a neighbour?
The following only answers your question, it would be relevant if you could prove that all neighbours are friends. Plus the friend only gave the loaves to get rid of the friend not due to kindness. You are being intellectually dishonest.
Quote:Question the conversion of asking into knocking. To knock simple means to repeat the process, or to keep seeking and to keep asking. (Like you have done In Your hound dogging me)
Christ tells us to do this in: 9 “So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
Where in those 2 verses does it say either to keep asking repeatedly or that asking turns into a knocking.
Here is drich trying to set up another out by not even trying to answer the question honestly. So now I am forced to ask again and he will say "but I already answered that question". Sorry drich you and everyone else knows that the only answer is that asking does not turn into knocking.
Quote:How many asks equal a knock?
I refer back to the story. In the story the asking continued until the neighbor got what he wanted. This is Christ's example of a successful a/s/k campaign. Meaning you are to knock or repeat this process till you get what you are looking for.
Your answer once again has nothing to do with the question. Avoiding questions. Reminds me of one of your threads.
hock: The question came about because you asserted that the repeated asking makes it a knock.Quote:What you get after a successful a/s/k campaign is the gift of the Holy Spirit. No guessing this is what Christ says:
13 If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”
I honestly believe if you put this same effort towards a/s/k with in a very short time you would have a story to tell.
No seeking or knocking there to get the holy spirit, only ask.
Non answer again.Here are the questions that you did not answer, holy shit it was all of them, plus one more that I forgot to ask again when you ignored it before.
In luke 11-5 to 13 it clearly states that it is a friend, NOT a neighbour. Why do you insist saying it was a neighbour?
Now I would like you now to show me where christ converts the asking into knocking?
How many asks does it take to equal a knock?
Please show me what will be found if I "seek"? No assumptions please.
Please show me what will be opened if I "knock"? No assumptions please.
Do you understand the following?
If you cannot answer honestly I will just have to accept that a/s/k is bullshit as I have proven to you before and you have failed to prove otherwise.
Thanks for playing.
