We're on page 22 of a thread wherein your posts keep testifying the exact opposite of that: you placing manmade documents higher than Gods Words.
This is what you assume. I always read scripture and use commentaries and creeds for opinions.

Except if someone studies God's Words and communes with God, but doesn't agree with one of your preferred "commentaries" you call person "incomplete", "not knowing the Bible", "cults", etc. That's placing sinners in a throne wherein only God should sit.

*Sigh*

I don't like putting people on 'ignore'. But talking with you is only serving to convince me you honestly worship men. Please, in the next post actually show me how you love GOD and don't worship men. Please.

What you say about me is not true. I study the scriptures daily using commentaries and creeds for opinions and nothing more. If it hits home with the witness of the Spirit I add it to my knowledge base.
I do hear what you are saying and I agree that many people work to do it right. They usually fail because they try to do it themselves instead of leaning on the Master and following Him.

Apparently you do strive in the right direction but that does not mean that at this moment everything you do or everything you believe is already the best that God has for them. This is so for me as well. We must admit the possibility of error in ourselves to allow God work on us. If we have decided we cannot be wrong, we have quenched the Holy Spirit; we have blocked the work of God in the thing where we have decided.


First the way it is when we try to direct our own steps:
"I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps." Jerem 10:23


Then the prayer asking for God's help in this:


Psa 119:5 O that my ways were directed to keep thy statutes!

Why is it incomplete with the trinity? Do you know why Jesus was incomplete when He was born to Mary?
Because the Godhead consists of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Father is not the Son, the Son is not the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit is not the Father. But these three distinct persons comprise one Spirit, God. Based on this, Jesus is the triune God as far as his Spirit. Having a fully human nature and a fully divine nature. So the fullness of God dwells in him bodily, though he speaks as a man in the person of the Son.

He was causing the universe to exist while they were killing him on the cross for our sake.

And so this is what you believe by faith. What I believe by faith as you know is somewhat different. Do you doubt that I walk with God because my belief is different? Who is it that walks with God by complete knowledge rather than by faith? Who should others imitate in their walk with God, you or me? Or maybe neither one of us?

Not following a man's creed = seriously misguided? WOW

Guess you missed Jesus' Lesson.
(BTW, it was not complicated)

Matt 4:19

Jesus said; "Come, follow me".

You teach follow men.

Big difference!

Glory to God.
Not following the bible = real serious

God knows your heart. But I do not recognize your belief as that presented in scripture.

Dave ~ Need a Q-Tip?

I am promoting Following the Bible.

You are promoting Following man-made Creeds.

Glory to God.
No, I'm promoting the bible and learning from the teachers in the Church. It's obvious your plan is leaving you in the dark.

It is a WEIRD phenomenon....

It is all over this forum..."you'll see".

A person speaks, another persons ignores what the person says, and instead makes some ridiculous claim FOR the other person, then wants to Argue against, what they have claimed for the other person.

EAR WAX is rampant... LOL

God Bless,

That is true. But when the ear wax is person literally advocating that the words of man are more important that God, I got a mega problem with it. Normal obstence... heh, that's just humans being humans.

What is Obvious, IS you are ignoring Scripture and promoting man-made creeds, that apparently YOU cling to, while others find the Scriptures sufficient.

Glory to God.

You are misrepresenting what I say. I use the scriptures and commentaries and creeds for help. DO you read the bible? How often? How many times cover to cover? Just curious.
