I haven't seen anyone say that!
Good grief! Several times in as many days. I am getting the uncomfortable feeling that this is due to us not having our Faith icons--so everyone seems to think that this is one big board where debating is expected. Well it isn't expected at OBOB. I know I came here from a debating board. I was looking for a nice "safe place", thought I had found it, and don't even go into GT because of the hostility there. Bring back our Faith icons so people who like to debate will be seen for who they are! Right now they seem to be "flying under the radar".

I have. Several times. It's extremely hurtful. I take it personally when I see that.

To the OP-perhaps people find what Jesus felt irrelevant to their faith. By people I guess I mean me. If imagining and adding emotinal content to Scritpure is useful for you--more power to you--but just remember that they are your imaginings and may or may not hold the truth of the matter.

My suggestion: Be sure you read and study Church interpretation. It is not enough for us to read God's word. It is also important to read the words from those who are much more learned than us.

Amen Medjugorje Message of November 25, 2008 Dear children! Also today I call you, in this time of grace, to pray for little Jesus to be born in your heart. May He, who is peace itself, give peace to the entire world through you. Therefore, little children, pray without ceasing for this turbulent world without hope, so that you may become witnesses of peace for all. May hope begin to flow through your hearts as a river of grace. Thank you for having responded to my call.
