    God and the Bible

    You are correct of course, it is not a 24/7 prayer life and I don't think Paul is saying that either. But if I understand the meaning of the term "without ceasing" correctly, it means never stop giving praise to God for all good and perfect things. Amen? To God Be The Glory

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    I'm afraid you as well have the wrong interpretation of Romans 7:14-25. Paul in these verses is talking about his spirit/mind against his flesh/body. He is saying that he delights in the law of God (the part that is saved v.22), but in his body (the part that is NOT yet saved v.23) is warring...

    God and the Bible

    Each and everyday, I pray for my family that they may become saved. Each day I get out of the house, I pray for safety or when traveling by car for traveling mercies. I thank God when I see beautiful landscape on the mountain side and see how beautiful the ocean looks from above the mountain. I...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    @Rich R, You can fool people some of the time, but you can't fool people all of the time. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Forgive me for laughing but I just remembered Psalms 37:13. Today in Christendom, it is all about TOLERANCE! No longer do "Christians?" REBUKE those who teach heresy. Believers ought to...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    So have I written the same and I'm not God, either! Who has what manner and attitude and no interest? I suggest you look in the mirror. Truly, I wish, you would check your sources. I did NOT write the above! Caution, "look before you leap." I wonder if this is also how you mix the scriptures...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    So you know better than God when He said "the wages of sin is death?" IOW, it only takes one sin that is NOT paid for and send that person to hell. So you believe in the sin of omission and commission? LOL

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    It is not kosher to answer a question with another question, but for me to respond, I need to ask a question "Which part of my comments did you not understand?"

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    It is a fact only to those who knows what is the nature and character of the "tongues phenomenon" and, so far no one here understands.

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    No one has a perfect understanding of Scripture. The Bible was written for the human race. To God Be The Glory

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Yes in His human nature He was the only perfect one. We sin because we are sinners and we will sin till the end. Because if we don't have the spirit.... "Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God." 1 John 3:9...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Read and learn! "Jesus is the LAMB slain BEFORE the foundation of the world." Rev.13:8] i.e. that Christ died in eternity past. How did you think the OT believers were saved??? You're right it's never good to build an entire doctrine on a single verse or on opinions as you do! QUOTE="Rich R...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    I know you have me on the "ignore list' but you can't stop me from making comments on anyone's posts. But the forums are for everyone whether ignored or not. Finally, there is something I can agree with you on. I concur that Paul was already a child of God when he penned Romans 7, under the...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Can you at least give me the courtesy to give comment on your last post to me? My aim was really to give you the correct Gospel. However if you want to ignore my comments that's fine with me. This is the kind of reception I get from those who thinks they know the word of God. This is the same...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Only after some in here told you the tongues phenomenon is a gift!!! Proof? Just look at the title of your OP. Lol So when John the Baptist was saved he did all of the above in his mother's womb??? By golly, you got it right! Why else did it need interpretation? Duh! indeed it was important...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Unless you want to call God a liar better read James 4:7. You put yourself in disrepute all by yourself with no help from others.. How can someone who has a hot line to the Holy Spirit and as a Tutor, be wrong? Besides, Jesus promised to send another comforter from the Father for the...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Therefore, you believe you stand on safe ground on this matter because of consensus?

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Nothing that I've learned about the things of God that was not taught by the Holy Spirit! Form the beginning, in the Garden, Satan told Adam and Eve a very, very big lie: "thou shalt surely not die." I've asked you a very simple question to expound on 1 Co. 5:5 [which by the way, was your own...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    I've NEVER claimed that others don't have a hotline to the Holy Spirit, but I'm confident you've noticed that of me. I thought for a moment you were speaking of yourself. I apologize. Lol You know, I've noticed that too. Next time I'll be more Christ-like, ty. I was not aware that I was...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    If the above is your criteria for understanding scriptures then I can see why you are having difficulties. I've already given you the example about the Bereans. For instance, for many years I have puzzled over a verse and even prayed about it's understanding. Then one day, the verse popped up...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Not if you know your Bible. Yes, be like the Bereans who searched the scriptures to see if what Paul have said were so. There are many people who come with agendas and presuppositions. To God Be The Glory
