Let's hear it! What is the measure--the whole house, or only a few?

I am tired of being accused and called names.


I have given my testimony here on Christiany Board a half dozen times or more, published books on the details; and have been here for years not discussing, not weighing in, not giving my opinion or conjecture, but being "silent" personally allowing the Holy Spirit to speak within the parameters commanded by God regarding these times. But I don't like hanging out where I am not welcome. And I let a lot just roll off my back. But it's enough.

The Lord God sets before us all "life and death, blessing and cursing"--and today by His authority I am setting before you that same choice. I have presented the Holy Spirit, and this is that limit set by Christ of blaspheming against the Spirit that will not be forgiven (Matthew 12:31).

Your vote will determine whether I dust off my feet or not. Please vote.

I don't think you are an heretic, but sometimes you write strange things;

God did set before us all the choice of life and death;

Deuteronomy 30:19 (ASV)
“I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before thee life and death, the blessing and the curse: therefore choose life, that thou mayest live, thou and thy seed.”


why do you write "and today by His authority I am setting before you that same choice" ? Did God give you this authority, can you bless, can curse people? can you judge. I am french speaking maybe I did not understand what you meant I do not master the English language and its expressions.

also why do you say " I have presented the Holy Spirit" I dont know you much about what you write, can you explain.

Many views, two answers.
That should tell you something.
-------------------------
Welcome to the club, Scott.
I know what you are talking about.
------------------------
I like some of your posts and some other posts I don't like.
I guess we had a run in one and another.
But I believe you are sincere in your believes and what you are posting even though some of it is haywire in my book.

However I support free speech, so in my opinion you should stay.
-----------------------

Name calling and insults are nothing new here on this forum.
I have thought about leaving myself many times.

But then again I thought the heck of it I am not being ran out of here by some people spitting insults at me.
----------------------
There you have it: Just my opinion.
Like it or not. :-)
---------------------
As usual: Have a great day.

Thank you!

These are the days of which these things--this time of the Holy Spirit--which are written...of which I have a particular part. The authority that I spoke of was stated by Christ and I also give witness that they should be established fully bound in on earth and in heaven by the mouth of two or three. The terms were given by Christ.

As for me, I can do nothing of my own, nor do I. But I do not by any authority bless or curse or judge. I have only restated what is written of these times, which is of Christ's authority, not mine. Even so the prophets of old, namely Daniel, then the apostle John and Paul, and now I declare things old and new as servants.

As for presenting the Holy Spirit--He was presented by Christ also, but not fully received--so I present Him again, for as I said, these are the days of which many things were written of. While many have chosen to follow men of flesh and blood, I again declare that choice again to be life and death, blessing and cursing--which is nothing new, but always true.

I'm not really deciding to stay or go, and certainly not because of being run off. But the circumstances are more that things have perhaps run their course. I'd like to say this is different--I have actually, and I appreciate the misunderstanding that there exists a level playing field--which is indeed mostly the case. Except when it's not--when God decides it's not. Meaning, the friction is part of God's plan, and it reveals many in the process. That does and has occurred here. My obligation is fulfilled. Did Paul's plan to return to Corinth a third time come to fruition? Perhaps, but the evidence is only assumed. The point is, the way that things go is God's will, His timing, and either way, what He has intended to fulfilled. This is not a contest of wills or endurance--but rather a test...with consequences. Those consequences are written, and I have given warning.

As I said above, this is really not me deciding to stay or go. And yes, I took a big break one time also. Life happens, and we decide which way to go based on a variety of reason at many points along the way.

And again, it is not actually the name calling, etc. That has indeed peaked here in the last few days, but I don't see it as those who get or got ugly as what is actually occurring. But rather, God revealing them--that man of sin, we all are first born as--in some, while at the same time sending me onward. The other possibility is that Nineveh repents. But I know and God knows--I did not run off to Tarshish from the presence of the Lord.

If I had to take a stab of the seven stars (messengers) to the seven candlesticks (churches)...

Original messenger - Church
1. Peter - Messianic
2. Paul - Early Gentile
3. Constantine - Greek Orthodox
4. Theodosius I - Catholic
5. Martin Luther - Protestant
6. John Wesley - The revived church (Methodist - Pentecostal)
7. Robert Shuller - The Country Club

One Church... Millions of congregations...
1. Ephesus - Messianic Jewish Church
2. Smyrna - Oriental Orthodox - The Roman persecutions were ten
3. Pergamos - Greek Orthodox - Pergos... A tower... Needed in the dark ages
4. Thyatira - Catholic - Middle ages
5. Sardis - Protestant - A sardis is a gem... Beautiful,,, Not much spiritually
6. Philadelphia - Wesleyan - Too bad the revivals didn't last longer
7. Laodicean - Word of Faith - Rich and have need of nothing?


Seven candlesticks - Seven generalized congregation - All unique - And Christ walking in the midst
Seven seals - Those names written in the Lambs Book of Life
Seven stars - Those messengers to the congregations

@ScottA your also need to have a "Sometimes" choice as well in your survey.
If I were looking for constructive criticism, that would be good advise. But I am not.

I am putting out a fleece, or an olive branch, or drawing a line in the sand--and boldly associating it with the life and death, blessing and cursing set before all by God--because, like it or not, God, as is His practice, often does that by sending out someone--someone to deliver that choice appropriately for the times at hand.

But I am encouraged that you would think what you think...only sometimes. :wink:

ScottA, I have not voted in your poll. Sometimes we are a heretic, other times, we are not, but mainly we oscillate between both extremes, trying to become the person that God intends all people to become, righteous while working out our lives to become a blessing in what we do for and say to others.

Indeed.

I suppose what I am addressing is more a matter of who persecuted who: Who killed the prophets of old, who rejected and crucified Christ, who persecuted the firstfruits of the Spirit following Christ--and who persecuted Paul who was at the beginning of the times of the gentiles--and who among us are doing something similar at the end of the times of the gentiles, who likewise think they are actually serving God?

That involves all the churches, including this one.

I appreciate that. Yet there is something wrong with it. Sorry, it's not personal, actually a lot of people look at our working out our own salvation like that, as if it is a process--a process of us gaining ground on being more Christ-like. In a sense that is true, but rather backwards. The process is not so much us gaining Christ, but letting go of the old man. Which is to say, we do indeed pass from death to life that very day of our being born of the spirit of God--but then "we who are alive and remain" in the world after that tend to drag along the baggage that comes with these passing bodies of flesh.

It is in and by that "salvation now" reality that I have been speaking of things--and yes--"sometimes" it is not taken well. But still, what is promised is not that we should expect things to be agreeable and not disruptive--but quite the opposite. Thus the pattern of killing the prophets, etc. by otherwise well intended men of God. What then is promised, is not necessarily agreeable truth, but "all truth."

And that was the primary reason why so many prophets to Israel were killed because people did not want to listen to what the prophets had to say.

Sometimes we are a heretic, other times, we are not, but mainly we oscillate between both extremes, trying to become the person that God intends all people to become, righteous while working out our lives to become a blessing in what we do for and say to others.

God wants us to enter into a working relationship with Him. He wants us to take root in His fertile fields so as to draw all of our nourishment from Him. God has undertaken to draw all to Himself and will plant them in His soil and He will teach them on the mountain of Israel that grew from the rock that will come down out of Heaven, untouched by human hands. As we absorb God's love, so we are able to share that love with others to bring blessing to all of the earth.

Shalom

Let's hear it! What is the measure--the whole house, or only a few?

I am tired of being accused and called names.


I have given my testimony here on Christiany Board a half dozen times or more, published books on the details; and have been here for years not discussing, not weighing in, not giving my opinion or conjecture, but being "silent" personally allowing the Holy Spirit to speak within the parameters commanded by God regarding these times. But I don't like hanging out where I am not welcome. And I let a lot just roll off my back. But it's enough.

The Lord God sets before us all "life and death, blessing and cursing"--and today by His authority I am setting before you that same choice. I have presented the Holy Spirit, and this is that limit set by Christ of blaspheming against the Spirit that will not be forgiven (Matthew 12:31).

Did you not understand what I was saying about that perspective actually being the opposite of what is really true with God?

In other words, no, God did not plant in us a root that draws us to Himself at the point of our salvation (at the time of being born again of His spirit)--that happens well before the fact of salvation. Which is not a root in the flesh to save the flesh, but a root in the flesh to bring forth life from what has died, as in the planting of a seed where the body that was is not at all the body that is produced...but a body born of the Spirit that is like the wind and even unseen, which the flesh was never like. Meaning, there is no salvation of the flesh, it still dies and is no more. There is no process as many believe--for the flesh is not transformed, but replaced.

The miracle of life and salvation then, is that what is produced is new and perfect, for the actual seed is not of the flesh of one dead, but of God who is perfect.

If i made a post like this i can only imagine the number of votes against me as being a heritic .
And all i do is point to JESUS and keep things simple . I worry not what man finds pleasing nor about being accepted of man .
JESUS has his sheep and its TO HE we owe all . if TRUTH offends than the one offended is the one to be blamed
NOT the TRUTH or the one speaking it . Now to the trenches one and all .
REAL PERSECUTIONS are coming against all who did not conform to an ecumeincal harlot and her love .
Words on a screen are but words on a screen . REAL hard core persecutions are coming against the sheep who do not CONFORM .
