GOD COMMA : What I Believe With A Comma

 Short and sweet. We are born in this world like all other mammals : self protective .. or shortened : self. Jesus was clear that His Kingdom is not here. Thus, we are a bit clueless of how to become the kind of human that 'fits in' to that Kingdom. Obviously there are certain character traits we must have from our Soul.  "Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world : if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence." John 18:36 The very common question of humanity is : "What is sin." and "Why do we sin?" and "Why is there sin." Why is there sin? Why did God allow it? The simplest answer is : Because without sin, we would not know what forgiveness is. Sin brings the gift called forgiveness. We learn that God forgives. We learn that people forgive.

Earth heard the wind and got the fire.  Pentecost. 120 earthen vessels heard the wind in the upperroom and then received the fire of ElohimSpirit.  ACTS 2 It is amazing to think that this had never happened before.   God had been WITH humans, but this time God went IN humans.

It never says earth wind and fire for those 3000, so we do not know much about their experience. But we can say from that moment that God was WITH each of ...

 I've pondered how microphones may have changed the simplicity of Churches and opened the door for modern mega churches. Some history via googleAI : "The churches that don't use microphones, speakers (like priests or pastors) rely on projecting their voices and utilizing the natural acoustics of the space, often with elevated pulpits and "sounding boards" to enhance sound clarity for the congregation.  Here's a more detailed explanation: Elevated Pulpits: Pulpits were traditionally placed in the center of the church and elevated to ensure the speaker could be seen and heard by as many people as possible.  Sounding Boards: Pulpits often had a "sounding board" or abat-voix above them to help direct and amplify the speaker's voice.  Acoustics of Stone Churches: The stone walls of churches and cathedrals naturally allow sound to reverberate, creating a rich, resonant sound that can carry over large distances.  Voice Projection: Speakers in churches ...
