    Matthew 5:42 and UK law

    Painful experience

    They fling out hurtful words, because they do not know any better. Does God revel in the strong pulverising the weak: marking out the territory that only the strong can enter, and pushing away the weak?

    I certainly do not intend to be confusing. i was expressing my recent experiences, and thoughts on prayer. Here is an explanation of the greek word used in 1 Thessalonians 5:17 for unceasingly: https://biblehub.com/greek/88.htm It seems that it can mean both 'without interruption', and it...

    Did you mean to quote this, that you had already written, because it seems to me that you are trying to provoke me. I have also noticed that you seem to be 100% certain of everything you write.

    i dont mean to be disrespectful, and i may be off the mark here, but some things you have written sound quite new age(y).

    Speaking to the Lord.

    Hello, thank you for the message. that is an interesting perspective. I guess i was wondering how often people are praying i.e. is it constant, or near to constant, or 50% of the time etc. because i fall so short of any onf these benchmarks, and i wanted to get other peoples opiniions.
