There are basic principles and values but there are also stage, phases and cycles. I am positive that had Jesus and Pilate met under different circumstances and with better opportunity to actually get to know one another they would have been fast friends with many complimentary philosophies. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts, Rob-bear!Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10974190496077346318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7501326220017913079.post-74450420478095841162009-12-26T13:21:32.267+11:002009-12-26T13:21:32.267+11:00Sorry I'm reading and replying to these posts ...Sorry I'm reading and replying to these posts backwards,<br /><br />The world does keep moving on. There's a "that was then; this is now" aspect to life. Not so much a change in the truth, but a change in the context in which the truth is to be applied. Truths are always applied in a particular context -- which we so often forget.<br /><br />That was Pilate's problem. His context, his thought process, was so different from Jesus' that he couldn't understand what Jesus was saying -- even though Jesus was speaking a truth which was probably somewhere in Pilate's own heart. <br /><br />Don't know if that makes any sense; I can only hope. And you can always write.Rob-bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00171692478879522588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7501326220017913079.post-71164704447573564812009-12-21T12:48:35.478+11:002009-12-21T12:48:35.478+11:00Yes, Renata, good advice.

I am free to make whatever choices I like and this, in itself, is the grandest and most precious luxury of all because not far from here, just around the corner...in a hot desert, where there is no food, no water , no shelter, where a woman and her child have been driven into hiding by barbarians who may also believe that are right in what they do, sits and watches her child die and she has NO choice.....somehow this vision is always my balancer...sorry too melodramatic! But I know you will understand...w.wwykdwytchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18012238540104272881noreply@blogger.com
