"Divine Intervention"

Submitted by Chef Mike (United States), Dec 31, 2007 at 14:18

Dear Mr. Pipes and Friends,

A. Fact is, "Divine Intervention" controls every ounce, every inch, and every molecule of every thing in HIS universe, even when WE humans think that WE have designed and influenced every atom of every issue.

B. Pat Robertson and his self-designed suppositions are continually on their own. He is associated with just enough truth to be dangerous.

C. Ariel, just like you and me, are ALL individually subject to the Creator's dictates and designs, all recorded in the Owner's Manual. That exclusive Book is so easy to understand and follow when we take it at face value and do not attempt to deface it with our silly, self-serving suppositions.

So first, the answer to your question is Yes, and the explanation is tied to his (Ariel's) relationship to Him (the Creator) at that moment in time. And second, of course the ultimate answer is Yes.

Furthermore, Robertson is NOT an "evangelical". He is a Charismatic. Those two are about 178 to 179 degrees in opposite directions. Please don't degrade the real historical followers of Jesus, the Christ, the Creator of heaven and earth, by blending in the crazed, contemporary, usually uninformed, even opportunistic, emotionally driven, fun loving Charismatics.

Typically, from time to time, like most Charismatics, Robertson finds himself compelled to speak on behalf of God, without authorization. Therefore, you may add embarrassing to the earlier categorization.

Have a Blessed New 366. I always enjoy your well researched and very informed views.

Chef Mike,
Tampa
