Hi
Dreams played a vital part in Jesus life.
Joseph’s dream saved Jesus’ life in childhood; and Claudia’s dream saved his life later. God bless Joseph and Claudia for seeing such good dreams:
In addition to all this, there was another heavenly cause, namely, that when Pilate presided at his court, his wife sent word to him not to have anything to do with that righteous person (i.e., not to attempt to punish him with death), for, she said, she had had a dream that night, which had troubled her very much.
So, this angel, whom the wife of Pilate saw in her dream, would assure us and all fair-minded people, with certainty, that God had never intended that Jesus should die on the Cross. From the day of the creation of this world, never has it occurred that God should suggest to a person in a dream that a particular thing would happen in a certain way, and still that thing should fail to happen.
For example, the gospel of Matthew says that an angel of the Lord came to Joseph in a dream and said, ‘Arise and take the young child and the mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him’. Now, can anyone say that Jesus could be killed in Egypt?
Similarly the dream which the wife of Pilate dreamt was a part of God’s design, and it could never be that this design should fail in its object; and just as the possibility of Jesus being put to death during the Egyptian journey was against a specific promise of God, so here it is unthinkable that the angel of Almighty God should appear to the wife of Pilate and should direct her to say that if Jesus died on the Cross it would not be a happy thing for her, and yet the angel’s appearance should go in vain, and Jesus should be allowed to suffer death on the Cross.

I love Jesus and hence I would defend Jesus against faulty concepts of Paul; others could differe with me out of their own free will but solid reasons, no compulsion
Thanks

. I find humor in his/her (don’t care) logic/illogic but unfortunately there are many similar to him/her with regards to logic/illogic. Here, I may be adding fuel to his/her fire, but elsewhere I refuse to. Maybe some good ol’ fashion Amish shunning may help. His threads and posts remind me of arguing with a drunk. I do pray for him/her as well as all of the other posters that I agree/disagree with. I am learning tremendously from the differing viewpoints.
