I know. I just find it hard to be uncivil to someone like that who has lived most of his life trapped in that body. I figure I can take a pass. There are more than enough people who want to let him have it, but I suspect Mr. Hawking knows the truth now, and there isn’t anything we can do that will make it worse for him.
However, can you really understand Rembrandt or da Vinci by their paintings?”
My point exactly.
While the Bible is an excellent tool to understand God, the best method is to follow Jesus’ teachings and become “One” with God, just as Jesus described in John 14.
Oneness with the Father
7 If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; from now on you know Him, and have seen Him.
8 Philip *said to Him, Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us. 9 Jesus *said to him, Have I been so long with you, and yet you have not come to know Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how can you say, Show us the Father? 10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me?
18 I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. 19 After a little while the world will no longer see Me, but you will see Me; because I live, you will live also. 20 In that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you.
Well said.
