[Terry L Smith]

momma had one of those big fancy bibles, with all the pages of entered familial information and all the artwork one might need.

thank you, no.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Suit yourself—although I note you have commented previously here.

If you reconsider, these threads appear on most days, at the modest price of several minutes of your time.

[Terry L Smith]

at 70, and a dialytic, “stolen time” is sitting in that chair for 4 hrs, 3 days a week, and the accompanying blah till the next day.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Candidly, I don’t understand either of your two posts: the obnoxious first, loudly rejecting this thread when simply ignoring it was available; and the self-pitying second, devoid of thankfulness.

I could have ignored your posts, but the Holy Spirit prompted me to respond. It remains unclear to me just why.

If it’s any consolation, I am 73 and totally bedridden, which is how I find the time—many more than merely a few minutes, I assure you—to produce and post these. Your disability consumes twelve hours weekly, while mine takes all 168. I only mention it to assert that I have personal understanding of what you expressed, in case that furthers the Spirit’s cause.

[Marchmain]

Salvation is from the Jews.

[Hebrews 11:6]

We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus, Who was born a Jew—as Matthew’s genealogy plainly demonstrates.
