Ro 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

Ec 12:12 And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh.

Something which is edible is something we are able to eat. Something which is inedible is something that we are not able to eat. Our normal food must be edible, or it will cause us trouble making us sick or even poisoning us.

Thank you again. I do read and study the epistles of Paul as well as the rest of the written scriptures regularly, yet my understanding on some points still differs from yours. I will leave you for the moment.

Thank you for your time. Your answer seems to be simply "Paul's Doctrine", which for me puts the cart before the horse. Should we always presume you are right as to just what that Doctrine is? Is it possible that you are sometimes wrong?

What would we do if someone were not here to designate for us those who are in error? Is there one that is not... in error that is? Who should we trust to point out those that are in error and the One that is right? Just any man on this forum or any forum or even within any church group...

Heb 13:9 Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein. Php 3:16 Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same...

Joh 6:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

Consider that everyone, or perhaps nearly everyone, on this forum and other forums, believes he teaches God's Way. It is certainly my intention to do so. When these teachings appear contradictory to each other, is someone unknowingly teaching a lie? Is someone then a liar even without knowing...

Neither do I believe that God is a Multiplicity, but... I am not a Trinitarian. Due to this I used these verses against people who insisted that John 10:30 established a Trinity. But... I am on the verge of discussing that which is not allowed here. I will say no more on that. I have never met...

Joh 10:30 I and my Father are one. Joh 17:11 And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. Jas 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray...

When I am following the lead of the Holy Spirit, I am on God's Way; when I am not following His lead, I am on my own way. Who among us having received the Holy Spirit never quenches the Holy Spirit? Is this not why Paul was inspired to write this? 1th 5:19 Quench not the Spirit.

Indeed, ultimately only two choices: God's Way or our own! One of the best examples I see in Scripture of a fallible man who served God in spite of his stumbles and fumbles was David... but Jesus provides for us the perfect example. How much like Him are we able to be? What do we have that...

Was he the greatest Christian who ever lived? What did he write about making such comparisons? 2co 10:12 For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among...

Paul is a man, a special man called by God, but I must leave you to some of your conclusions. Indeed... "as I follow Christ" [I Cor 11:1] Being led by the Spirit, we will be following Christ as well as those sent to help us: Eph 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some...

Who but God is able to examine all of the evidence? How important is faith? Heb 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Joh 6:44 No man can come to me, except the...

When we lived in town where door knocking was easier, we used to get both JWs and LDS visitors regularly. When I was not really busy, I would always invite them in because in both cases they wanted to talk about the Bible and God. I enjoyed that especially because there were few others who...
