Title: Lovingkindness and Mercies which do not end :)
Post by: Tim B on June 29, 2009, 08:53:10 AM
This is a really good verse I found in Lamentations.  :bigGrin:

Lamentations 3:22 (Rotherham's Emphasized Bible):

QuoteThe lovingkindnesses of Yahweh, verily they are not exhuasted, Verily! not at an end, are his compasions:

Isn't that a great verse? :) It doesn't even have anything to do with age-lasting/age-during. It just says his love and compassion is not exhausted nor ended.  :thumbsup:

Yep. And other positive meanings.

According to Strong:


Grace

ca,rij charis {khar'-ece}

Meaning: 

grace 
     that which affords joy, pleasure, delight, sweetness, charm, loveliness: grace of speech 


good will, loving-kindness, favour 
     of the merciful kindness by which God, exerting his holy influence upon souls, turns them to Christ, keeps,strengthens, increases them in Christian faith, knowledge, affection, and kindles them to the exercise of the Christian virtues 


what is due to grace  
     the spiritual condition of one governed by the power of divine grace 
     the token or proof of grace, benefit 
     a gift of grace 
    benefit, bounty 


thanks, (for benefits, services, favours), recompense, reward

Hey your taking that out of context.  God's loving kindness is only for the elect.

Oh sorry, wrong forum.  Nevermind...

Job 9:20 Though I were righteous, my own mouth would condemn me; Though I [were] blameless, it would prove me perverse.

If the elect are already saved. And all others are doomed.
Why was Jesus on earth.
For the lousy food and suffering?

Hey Tim, yes I knew you are Domoman over there.  Keep on persevering, I know it is frustrating, but everyone will learn something from it (even b57... maybe).  What are you learning?  PATIENCE.  And patience is a key ingredient in LOVE.

I know some people over there drive me nuts too... I still have more patience to learn.
