Baptism: a reminder of the future

Through baptism, we are taught/reminded that we will die. Without a sense of our mortality, we cannot live fully.

translation error in John 5:39?

Something feels inconsistent to me in John 5:39 that I can't seem to articulate. The rest of the paragraph has a different feel to me. That verse sticks out. "One of these things is not like the others, one of these things just doesn't belong..." I wonder if I'll ever be able to see it clearly. I'd appreciate your thoughts.

God as we understand God

There is no one on this planet who has a full knowledge of God. And there is no one on this planet who does not have some sense of God.
