    What is the Concept of Firstfruits?

    Firstfruit is the fruit(result of work) of Love(agape/giving selflessly)? And it is the only acceptable fruit? The only Holy fruit? It is blameless (spotless)? Am I off track? Can you help? If Jesus is the firstfruit of resurrection, what is the work? (If the fruit is resurrection, the work...

    What is the Concept of Firstfruits?

    All of them. I think it must be one concept being imaged/illustrated in multiple ways. There must be some commonality which is the definition or concept or idea being expressed. Also, for anyone who will help me understand, can you please use layman's terms and try to explain the concept? (Not...

    What is the Concept of Firstfruits?

    My understanding is that every word from God is an image of a concept (an image of his awareness) which is to be conceived - his words are images of his awareness of his will, which we are to become aware of/conceive. We speak to be understood - we speak to reproduce our awareness. So, with...

    Does God's Law Only Apply to Believers?

    The Law applies to everyone but those who do not know better are not punished as severely - their trials will not burn as hot, so to speak. Furthermore, those who are not within the Church are to be left to God to try and to judge(punish) - it is up to him to punish them in this life - the...

    A question

    Whenever you recognize that a thought you're having is somehow connected to the subjects in question, think of the Biblical interpretation instead of your opinion. At first, you will likely not be able to refrain from thinking of your opinion, so think of it as being incorrect, and the biblical...

    Evolution and Morality

    Morals are like precepts -- conceptual guides, or principles, used for the measurement of spiritual righteousness. Your morals are states of your awareness. Father is the awareness of Truth. (Soul/mind) Jesus is the image of Truth. (Body/form) The Holy Ghost is the spirit of Truth...

    Evolution and Morality

    Something that is unaware cannot be the source of moral truth, as morality is of concepts and conception - it is of awareness. And that awareness must also be truth; if not, if moral awareness is not the awareness of truth, then morality is made-up nonsense. If morality truly exists, if there...
