why didn't JC talk race? these- lower issues: racism, fatherlessness, anger, culture.. what's your role on Earth? will even understanding fix ??? world's problem is sin which gives us hope (we have biblical solution). start talking like Jesus w only solution: repent &believe gospel! real diagnosis? identify real problem.. ! sin !! hearts prone to hate. Jesus died for sinners. unique Christian msg. He knew, key to changing hearts was deeper: things can't be fixed w conversations at water cooler. anything short of supernatural intervention's not going to fix massive <3 problems. -how to give accounting of good /bad: so, life's not just time &matter acting by chance?? ((in 3 short mo, God's taken away everything we worship: health, security, freedom. idols always break <3s of worshippers. God wants us worshipping HIM. wanna worship athletes? shut down stadiums.. singers? actors? real estate? name industry. how you feeling now about idols? ))

my home's in heaven; just travelin' through the world -Billy Graham
isaiah 55:10-11as rain &snow come down from heaven, &don't return to it w/o watering Earth &making it bud &flourish, so that it yields seed for sower &bread for eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth: it will not return to me empty, but accomplish what i desire &achieve the purpose for which i sent it. out of love for the truth &the desire to bring it to light -95 theses, 1517.
if there are words for Him then, I don't have them. you see my brain has not yet reached a point where it could form a thought that could adequately describe the greatness of my God. &my voice is so inhibited, restrained by human limits, that it's hard to even sing a praise up. my God: unsearchable yet knowable. indefinable, yet approachable. indescribable, yet personal.
when the world shook &the sun was wiped out of heaven, it was not at the crucifixion, but at the cry from cross: the cry which confessed that God was forsaken of God (Matt: 27:46) &now let the revolutionists choose a creed from all creeds &a god from all gods of the world, carefully weighing all gods of inevitable recurrence &of unalterable power. they will not find another god who has himself been in revolt. nay (the matter grows too difficult for human speech), but let the atheists themselves choose a god. they will find only 1 divinity who ever uttered their isolation; only 1 religion in which God seemed for an instant to be an atheist. -GKC. †
