Faith: True and False

[GracePeace]

How many years?

Much love!

Irrelevant.

It's been made abundantly clear. You're just either not paying attention, you don't really care to have the conversation, or else you're pretending you don't understand.

Alrighty.

Much love!

Irrelevant.

Interesting. You seem to put a lot of emphasis on this timeline, but you now say it's irrelevant?

Do you agree that the Gospel was not given to the Gentiles at the first? That Jesus was sent to Israel only? That Jesus sent out the disciples to Israel only? And that God changed this?

Much love!

Much love!

I've only read that it was "years" after Pentecost.

It's irrelevant, because whether it is two or three years later doesn't affect my argument--ie, that the Apostles' understanding of the Gospel developed over time.

Jesus was sent only to the house of Israel... and?
Irrespectively, Peter did not understand the Gospel between Pentecost and the time of the vision and Cornelius's conversion. Not sure, other than the fact that you don't "like" what is being said, why this should be considered controversial.

Read where? I can't think of the passage myself that specifies how long.

Much love!

Commentary. I guess I can call a university if you're really that interested.

Which Seminary or University would you prefer I reach out to?

Gotta get back to you in a bit on this.

Enough is enough of these little personal comments. OK, I get it, you have your opinion of me, and you feel free to share it. But that doesn't mean it's appropriate, or that you are right.

Much love!

I'm here to discuss Scripture.

Much love!

Oh, great. Another "I, alone" preacher. Welcome to the forum, anyway.

No mate, I'm just over people thinking it's impossible to actually "know" anything. And if something is said that doesn't fit within their own belief system, they claim it as an "opinion" which gives them the excuse to reject it in ignorance.

There are alot of people here who are arbiters of their own Truth which is another form of man playing God. I don't think that I'm always right, but the truth is no one ever has anything mature to say in response to my thoughts and input. That's because they reject it without even thinking about it. Now, read my prior post about faith. Use your own conscience and ability to think and ask yourself was what I said True? Because you will probably find that it is. AND if it is, I have every right to claim it as Truth without you having a little dig.

Good day.

Wow. None of you here actually know what faith is.

This isn't "I, alone?"

Wow. None of you here actually know what faith is. Because none of you can read the symboligy of the Bible. Unbelievable.

It has nothing to do with belief.

Heb 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Now Emunah is the substance of things for which we have tikvah. Emunah is the conviction of things not seen.

Painfully obvious.

I took one look at his avatar (some "secret knowledge" for sure), started reading his off-topic boasting attempting to commandeer the thread, and placed him on ignore.

I don't like to berate folks, but sometimes it's hard to resist.

The "Sit at my feet, Grasshopper" stuff can get old at times, especially from folks who wander in and do their best to make themselves feel unwelcome.
