It is what I am compiling as a better outline, as a result and as an alternative to what I was disappointed to find being taught elsewhere. Which I am doing as one often rejected here for my obedience and obligation to God having given me the gift of declaring what is true in accordance with His...

Since you were quoting me above, saying "make no mistake"--is that not an accusation? Perhaps you didn't mean it that way--but you were quoting me.

If we speak according to our own understanding by conjecture and opinion, we likely fall short of what God has said by His greater knowledge and understanding. So, to be "silent in church" refers rather not to God or His own word, but to our own extra understanding and input which is likely to...

I would agree, that is why I offer clarification. Which does not mean there should be no instruction or the reminder of the instruction given by God; or even the declaration of what is actually true according to the method that God Himself has established as His own, particularly His use of...

Yes, but why do you accuse me, then ask for clarification as if I knew? Is that not the actions of one divided?

My question was regarding potentially joining the host of those who error in conjecture, when only One is correct and has given the terms for actual understanding.

That's all very nice, but those words that refer to the service of the various members of the body--even doing their service "in Christ" by "the power of God", does not make void the passage that there is but "One Mediator." So, no, you don't have to blame "non-Catholics" for not understanding...

Prophecy Class Outline - Part 5 The Call to Prophecy The more "biblical" call into the service and gift of prophecy, as we know, is quite varied. Elijah was called into a lifetime ministry of miracles, etc.. But Jonah--poor Jonah, he obviously lived part of his life before being called to what...

Prophecy Class Outline - Part 4 Hearing From God This is one area that is more general and can be enjoyed by all who come fully and humbly before God, and is not limited or specific to those with the spiritual gift of prophecy. Hearing the Spirit of God is simply a matter of being so connected...

Prophecy Class Outline - Part 3 The Spiritual Word Keys Because the scriptures are often looked at as being the end-all authority, even over the direct intervention of the Holy Spirit, it is important to know what it is that we are looking at. As mentioned earlier, "the Lord confused the...

Prophecy Class Outline - Part 2 Language and Scripture Issues Jesus rebuked the Pharisees and Lawyers for their error in looking only to the words of scripture as literal or literary, clarifying to say, "The words that I speak to you are spirit..." John 6:63. Which--first lesson key: Sets the...

Great! --even if you over capitalized "Rock" as if all were the Head. The point is--only One is the Head, and otherwise there is no hierarchy of authority among the body--positions, even leadership, yes, but all as servants of the One Most High. Meaning that "the veil" of access to God was not...

My wife and I have been attending a new church (gathering) for about 6 months and a "Prophecy Class" was offered, and we just attended the first of 5 classes...and it didn't go as well as I might have hoped. Introductions were given and an explanation of the Instructor's history of teaching the...

So, are we talking "respect" or "admiration?" I respect Muslim the same as I respect most human beings-- which is like "Cool--you're just as bad as we are--if it weren't for acts of terrorism, we could be friends!" Which is unfortunate, because I am quite sure there are good and bad people in...

Wow--that's quotable--:oops: alert the media! So, back to the Original Post and my first comment #18-- Why the vehement assumption and insistence by the Catholic Church that Jesus bestowed all authority upon Peter the rock in Matthew 16, as if he was personally the Cornerstone rather than Jesus?

Thank you for clarifying. But just to be clear: So...you are saying then, that the Catholic Church leaders, including the Pope, do not have their "own Authority?"

I have only quoted your last paragraph so as not to complicate the issue, but rather be concise in giving an answer to the pertinent question(s). It is our hearts that are to be guarded against all enemies, which having first been born evil and of the flesh, we ourselves are included and...

I do realize that I through a curve into the mix here to show the truth of darkness and God's dealings pertaining to the Original Post, but I really didn't want to derail the thread by going on and on about all the details. But I will say in clarification, that there is no "since" anything with...

Careful, that is not a biblical statement. There is war in heaven. Isaiah 45:7 (KJV) I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things. We should indeed know that God too does not like war, and in the end there will be war no more. But just as...

By the same rationale as God used the ravens to feed Elijah, or to have a donkey talk to Balaam, or used Isaiah a man of unclean lips, or used David an adulterer and a murderer, or Solomon who had a thousand wives, or Peter whom Jesus called Satan, or Paul who persecuted Christians. And for the...
