Sometimes, yes, but sometimes it seems some are more akin to the Pharisees of old more concerned with having it their own way than in encountering God's truth no matter what the cost. Do any of us always have it as right as God does?
Yes, in a sense to some people my question would be what they call rhetorical not really needing or calling for an answer or maybe no one actually having an answer. Consider however...Joseph77 said:
That's sort of an unanswerable question in some ways - and seems most of the time to be an excuse not to be right, instead of always as much as possible be right, as God Accomplishes this...
Remember the Apostles could (and did ) say "I know of nothing against myself... " but that does not clear me before God who sees all - He is the One Who Sees All... and He is The Judge. ...
But we still always strive to obey Jesus when He tells us "Go and never sin again" ....
... lest your condition ends up (much) worse than before ...
It seems very unusual for you to post this error.These lusts and that pride are not sin in themselves.
What error was that? Admitting that every person is attracted to things which if pursued lead to sin?It seems very unusual for you to post this error.
Just think. A young Christian asks about faith. You speak bible speak " Faith is the substance of things hoped for." He walks away with no idea at all what faith is. But hey, you answered Him. You conscious is clear.
Likewise,
the Bible translations you quote are not always infallible and sadly do lead many astray because of those errors.
This is nothing new , there is nothing new under the sun ?
People have been being deceived ever since someone told them not to read the Bible themselves, to only accept the (evil) power interpretation of Scripture instead of obeying God and instead of trusting God.
What is on display when you post? @Helen made some suggestions that your style of posting was not effective.Apparently not...
The alternative is cease to ask questions.?? You really thinks this is true ??

My motto is it is better to debate an idea without settling it than to settle it without debating it.Sometimes, yes, but sometimes it seems some are more akin to the Pharisees of old more concerned with having it their own way than in encountering God's truth no matter what the cost. Do any of us always have it as right as God does?
I like this scripture:My motto is it is better to debate an idea without settling it than to settle it without debating it.
Ideas should be put to the test in secular AND religious ideas.
The Lord made sure of that by putting a committee of men over the church to teach doctrines in Acts.
Amen!I like this scripture:
1 Peter 3 (KJV)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
¹⁵ But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
¹⁶ Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.
That's not written anywhere.The Lord made sure of that by putting a committee of men over the church to teach doctrines in Acts.
Wait, Jesus entrusted 12 with the gospel to preach, not doing it Himself as per Acts on....That's not written anywhere.
The men who were or are supposed to be obeying God,
were and are corrupted
and the doctrines all and each must be tested before ever being accepted because so many doctrines , in toto, from rome are and have always been corrupted.
Wait for what ?Wait, Jesus entrusted 12 with the gospel to preach, not doing it Himself as per Acts on....
Then they(per Jesus) set up a 5 fold ministry including elders.

If you do not post the text, and context if appropriate or needed, I cannot see the Scripture you are referencing in your post(s). Same with many around the world on cell phones.
Did you read my posts about this at all ? Without understanding ?Joseph, usually when someone quotes a scripture reference on here, it's a link, it links you to the Bible, if you click on it, it takes you to the ASV Bible translation, yes we have an online Bible in this site.
He told them the Holy Ghost(per Acts 2) would teach them everything, so it did.Wait for what ?
What the Apostles said would happen ?
No.He told them the Holy Ghost(per Acts 2) would teach them everything, so it did.
That is how we finally ended up with the written N.T.
Did you read my posts about this at all ? Without understanding ?
If you do not post the text (with or without the link), I do not see it, and many on cell phones (and perhaps many computers too/ especially some browsers for security reasons) around the world also.
