A Silly Notion

Post by Silvertusk »

I had a silly thought one day. I wondered what would happen if I had a time machine and went back to the Garden of Gethsename on that fateful day when Jesus was alone and just watched him. If he noticed me I wonder if he would look up and say "Ah Silvertusk - you are a bit out of your time aren't you."

Well actually he would use my real name of course.

My point is - would he know me?

I have a feeling he would - and everyone else.

Just a silly thought.

I have odd thoughts too. Sometimes they come out in verse format.
Here's one of mine...

Have you ever thought perchance
That life is just a life-long trance;
You're sleeping in some crazy dream
And not awake as it may seem?

Perhaps the world you know as real,
And everything you think and feel,
Is mythopaeic, nothing more?
Of what you know, can you be sure?

If doubts arise then question this
That answers may not go amiss,
Consider then what sleep might be
When dreams of other worlds tease thee.

:roll:

Pretty good Judah. I have often wondered if that might not actually be true.

And I do think that He does know us individually and by name, although our real name may not be what we think it is.

This is a thought that comforts me that he might know my name even though we are seperated by over 2000 years.
