Sorry, I didn't notice that. And there may have been some others who wouldn't have noticed it either.



Yes, though not to everyone who says to Jesus, "Lord, Lord", Matthew 7:21-23.



Do you honestly think that the only people looking on are the ones who are responding? there may be webcrawlers who are simply interested in the doctrines of Christianity...who may not yet be saved. To tell them that they are would be to give them a false assurance.

But, my bad...I didn't notice that you had tagged certain people at the top of your post. Though I have doubts about the salvation of @GodsGrace (for that she believes that her salvation is maintained by works, which is unbiblical), the Holy Spirit bears witness with her spirit as to whether she is saved or not, in her own heart.


Well, now someone has.


He still wants to have some left so he can confuse their minds.....wonder who that is like?

Oh come on...did nobody tell you that the original was not written in English.
MUCH of the wording has been changed....

The bible we hold in our hand contains the full essence of God's heart to us.
Don't fret, even thought much was probably lost in translation, and by the biases of those given the task of writing it out longhand..." oh I don't think God meant that, I will just say it a bit plainer..."...and thus a tweak here and a tweak there.... ) God is well able to convey all His thoughts to us.

Take a breath bro :)
I think that the devil would love to change a word here or there in order to change the entire meaning of the whole of what scripture teaches...and that he has done so with many of the newer translations.

I myself am a dyed in the wool KJV -er.

It is still a translation. A very anointed one...( and the best) but nevertheless it is still a translation. Some of the meanings of the words don't mean today what they meant back then.
None of them are 'pure' ...but God is well able to get His message across.

The bible is not the forth part of the godhead...even thought some people seem to think so , and have more fellowship with their bibles than they do waiting in the presence of God Himself.

Be blessed... H

But, my bad...I didn't notice that you had tagged certain people at the top of your post. Though I have doubts about the salvation of @GodsGrace (for that she believes that her salvation is maintained by works, which is unbiblical), @Lady Crosstalk (over her opposition to me, John 15:20, 1 John 4:5-6), and even @"ByGrace" (for that she has appeared to believe in Universalism in previous conversations) the Holy Spirit bears witness with their spirit as to whether they are saved or not, in their own hearts.

Hey there again. :)

I don't believe that I saw you post in the thread I started ( on behalf of someone else.) I did tag you in my post...but I don't remember you joining in.???

Re you above statements quoted ... ( BTW I too, like you, very rarely quote a whole post , but <snip?|> what I am not responding to.

True or not about what you mentioned about what we 3 all believe ...nothing of what you state that we believe , changes ANYTHING...those beliefs do not in any way nullify a persons salvation experience with the Lord. ( they just annoy other people lol )
It may be good for you to read some of this thread ...link below.
Read ESPECIALLY lforrest/Admin's post which is #11 , he clarified what you just said which I quoted here above .
ie :- Who has the right to tell someone that they are not a "christian"?

When is a christian NOT a Christian?

Interesting that you only question the salvation of women. You have had more opposition here from men than you have from women. You apparently have a persecution complex. If you can't handle opposing views, you don't belong here.

Please tell me your joking....I see the smiley face
Partly joking and partly serious. See Ezekiel 13:18

King James 2000 Bible
And say, Thus says the Lord GOD; Woe to the women that sew charms upon all wrists, and make veils for the heads, of every length, to hunt souls! Will you hunt the souls of my people, and will you save the souls alive that belong to you?

Are you a Jew?

That passage is about false women prophets who seemingly practiced a bit of sorcery. I certainly hope that you are not implying that GodsGrace, ByGrace and I fit that category. :rolleyes:

Almost liked your post. But, the above simply isn't true.

It is refuted by the following:

Psa 12:6, The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.

I don't believe that I saw you post in the thread I started

I did, page 12, post #33 (When is a christian NOT a Christian?).
