I believe compassion is a feeling of deep sympathy and sorrow for another person who is stricken by misfortune. It is also accompanied by a strong desire to alleviate the suffering.

January 13, 2009 My Summary Of Jesus
To me Jesus is not only my Lord and Savior, but He is also the guiding force in my life that encourages me to be different. By different I mean that Jesus through the Holy Spirit helps me to keep my focus on storing treasures in heaven and not on earth. Jesus is the one I ask to go to the Father to ask for forgivness when I mess up which is a daily event. Jesus is the one I cry out to for strenght and guidness when satan is laying temptation in front of me. Jesus is the one that understands me completely and Jesus is the one I can talk to about everything and anything. Jesus is the one that I can count on to be right there beside me no matter what the situation may be. Jesus is my best friend.

December 15, 2008 Why do you think the Saducees did not know the Scriptures or the power of God?
I feel the Saducees were far more of this world then they were of heaven. There focus was on things such as money, social standing's, and power. They twisted the meaning of the scriptures to fill there own needs. They were to concrened with having there worldly power, to open there hearts and to understand the power of God and what it is to have that power dwelling inside of you. So I feel it was a combination of being a control freak, there ego's and greed that kept them from understanding scripture.

November 27, 2008 Why is it that God is so upset with hypocrites? What makes hypocracy so wrong?
I believe one verse that points directly to hypocracy is Luke; 6:41 which reads "You can see the speck in your friend's eye. But you don't notice the log in your own eye." These are people that are quick to point out everything they believe you are doing wrong or how sinful you are living your life when in reality they are just as guilty as you are of living a sinful life style. They are quick to see your faults and even quicker to justify there own faults.
