Thank goodness it was a figurative cliff. Since it was there can be restoration.

To say that WL from the beginning crafted a plan to cause the saints to place his ministry above the Lords is a stretch! Unless you were involved and know beyond a shadow of a doubt.

The fact is the sheep after being officially denominated, nominated a king. Whether they knew what they were doing or not.

Peace.

Manna-Man, you may disagree with my thread, and I could debate on each point, but ... if it is really true that God's people were "not forced, chose to follow blindly of their own volition, and chose to jump off the cliff" ... then why would the Lord Jesus, when he toured the land of Judea, continually rebuke the scribes and lawyers and pharisees for being hypocritical and rotten shepherds of God's people ?!?!?

If what you are saying is true, then Jesus would have given them a free pass, and rebuked all those Israelites.

Please explain this to me.
