Common Sense Nonsense - Series 201

Common Wisdom is not really either. For example ..
1. Let the past bury the past

Can not be done that way.
Use funeral parlors, or celebrate a dead person's with memorial

When Jesus said similar words, "it was to rebuke a procrastinator, "Let the dead bury the dead." The living dead make much of human traditions including ceremonial matters. Real life is in God, his living word. Not in idols!

2. What goes around, cones around.

How much time you have? 

If it's a shooting star, comet, quasar, or even an Everest climb, you need intervals at the very least.

He was speaking of the spent physical, only good for fertilizer. True life is the spirit, entirely gone from the body after 4 days.
