And therein lies the rub, Irish.

God only made One Perfect Man, and He was crucified for that Perfection. Which means, we, as imperfect beings, must try all the harder to be Christ-like.

Wasn't that what I was saying?

Jesus was angry at the money changers, angry at greed, if I understand it right.

All Jesus did, was to show us all that God exists, within each one of us, just as God existed within Him.

We are all capable of Miracles. The only thing we lack is trust.
With God in our hearts, nothing is really a miracle, it's just God's will.

The only reason I used the phrase "All Jesus did," above, was to point out how simple our salvation really is. Look what He had to go through, to show us, and share God's love.

I hope I haven't offended anyone. I'm glad for the opportunity to discuss Jesus here, with my FRiends.
Happy Easter.

:-D
