    Understanding and interpretation

    Judd, I know that what I say about the written Word of God is true, for me, is because Jesus personally has taught me it’s meaning. I do not necessarily believe how the Word of God has been interpreted for me is the same, as every one else understands. People are in different palaces in...

    St. Francis of Assisi

    I was in the US Armed Forces for five years, and was a Catholic for over forty years. I believed it was my responsibility to defend my Country, and family. I held this belief for a year after Jesus started personally teaching me. One day as my wife and I were praying, Jesus came into my...

    St. Francis of Assisi

    I can see that you are not able to conceive of the Church ever being in the wrong. Have you ever had Jesus/Holy Spirit personally teach you anything? If you have then ask God what he thinks about a Christian killing anyone for any reason.

    St. Francis of Assisi

    You still avoided my point. I had all ready given up on any points that any biography other than the one the Catholic Church indorses. We can’t prove anything by reading anyone’s biography, because they all will have that good chance of forgery. Also not many Protestants would make the...

    St. Francis of Assisi

    You seem to be ignoring my points. The biography of Francis that I read was about thirty years ago, and I picked it up in a public library. Having the authors name would not mean anything, because she did not agree with the Catholic Official version. Using the written word can prove nothing...

    St. Francis of Assisi

    The biography I read about Francis had that Francis was selling his fathers goods to get money to fix up an old church. His father objected and then Francis dressed in a burlap bag, and panted a cross on it, giving up all possessions. When Jesus asked me to give him my life and I was about...

    Gifts of the Spirit

    Again you ignore scripture that tells us that Christiansare dead to sin. You instead makestupid references to Paul’s life. Thenuse a child’s excuse such as; everyone else sins so that must make itright.

    Gifts of the Spirit

    You come across as educated in the written Word of God. Yet you dare to quote Romans seven as if Paul was speaking about his fight with sin after he became Spiritual. That to me is deceit, or down right ignorance. Paul explains how Christians defeat Satan/sin in Romans eight and you...

    St. Francis of Assisi

    The biography of Francis that I happened to read was so great, and I really could relate to what the person who wrote it said about Francis. So much of what she said God told Francis, was very much like what Jesus has said to me. I have tried to share some of what I read about Francis, with...

    Gifts of the Spirit

    How dare you accuse me of sin? My job is to give a word and that is what I am doing. I am telling people to go to Jesus/Holy Spirit and let him only teach him or her. I am telling people not to accept any teaching about God that comes from man. I am man, so don’t accept any...

    Gifts of the Spirit

    Take the blinders off, and understand that Jesus gave us the way to have victory over Satan/sin. Jesus chose to give me the understanding, and told me to give the word to his people. I am sure he did not do this so I can boast. He chose to use me, but I am not special. He wants people to...

    Gifts of the Spirit

    (Hebrews 10:26) “If, after we have been given knowledge of the truth, we should deliberately commit any sins” No you miss the fact it says any sins. May be Ananias and his wife Sapphira were under the same false understanding that you are. (Acts 5:1) “There was another man...

    Gifts of the Spirit

    You should remember that David was not a Christian. (Matthew 11:11) “I tell you solemnly, of all the children born of women, a greater than John the Baptist has never been seen; yet the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he is.” Understand that a Christian is in the kingdom...

    (Hebrews 10:26-31) “If, after we have been given knowledge of the truth, we should deliberately commit any sins, then there is no longer any sacrifice for them. There will be left only the dreadful prospect of judgment and of the raging fire that is to burn rebels. Anyone who disregards the Law...

    St. Francis of Assisi

    Thank you I have often wondered what the Catholic Churches sanitized version would say about some parts of Francis’ life. There was a time that the Catholic version would have pleased me. Now it only makes me feel sad. Sad because I don’t believe the truth is being shared with us...

    No what I am saying is that those who deliberately commit sin are at best baby Christians. Scripture tell us that also. Scripture tells us that one who sins is of Satan. (1 Corinthians 3:1-3) “Brothers, I myself was unable to speak to you as people of the Spirit; I treated you as...

    Gifts of the Spirit

    I am saying a person who deliberately commits a sin has never seen or known God. I am saying a person who sins are of Satan. (1 John 3: 3 - 9) “Surely everyone who entertains this hope must purify himself, must try to be as pure as Christ. Any one who sins at all breaks the law, because to...

    Gifts of the Spirit

    To believe as you want to believe one needs to ignore much of Scripture. I show you the Written Word of God that tells us we a free from sin, but you chooses to ignore the Written Word of God, and yet you say that you believe in the bible?

    Go read my post #44. You have the answer there, but maybe you can’t stand the truth. The truth hurts does it not?

    Gifts of the Spirit

    You did not read my last post, or if you did you are blind to call me deceived. Jesus personally sat next to me and taught me that Christians are dead to sin. By the way he had me open the Bible to where it teaches us that Christians are dead to sin.
