My experience is that many "Christians" see/discern a devil under every rock and behind every door. They ask for discernment, but when God gives them the answer, they interpret it carnally.

And these scriptures came to mind: - Matthew 10:34-39: - Christ Brings Division (Luke 12:51-53; 14:26,27) 34 "Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. 35 For I have come to...

My experience has been that the more I learned things, the more I realised how little that I actually knew. A good education is supposed to teach us this. Sadly, in western culture, we trade in "knowledge" as a power base for our personal advancement.

I know that is the case. I have an uncle who is ancient now, but when I challenged him about his beliefs on these two parable, his foundation of belief was ripped out from under him and he became angry with me. I did begin a thread on this topic when I first began posting. The other day I was...

Are you sure about that. The Jews in Jesus' day would have compared what jesus was teaching with the OT to see if He was right. Why has this changed? In the OT, there are two Hebrew root words that have been translated into English as "generation." One is speaking of "descendant generations"...

There are many gifts within the Church, as mentioned above. The question that comes to my mind, is "How does God require a person to deliver the various gifts that he bestows upon us/them to another?" I was in a prayer meeting and a visiting preacher's companion came to the church's weekly...

There have been some people who desire the HS so badly that they will do anything to move in the spirit, but not necessarily the HS. I am speaking of the result of people visiting a church where the HS was moving, was that after they had left, the HS was no longer moving in that church as if...

Sadly, people's desire for gifts of the spirit is their undoing. People wanted me to have the "gifts of the HS" but I was content to allow the Lord to reveal and give them when they were needed, and to be content if they were just for a specific purpose at that time. I have known people to...

To only dally all yearn.

Enoch111, this thread was not meant to be a means for people to attack other members on this forum. Misdirection of others often comes from Christian people who do not know what they do not know. They believe that their understanding and wisdom is a guiding light for all other people whether...

Defined as: - Christian people who do not know, that they do not know.

A friend of mine has defined a "poor" person as some "One who has no time to consider their Navel." It has nothing to do with wealth.

Same utter nuances, day and yikes

Not sure whether I know.

Does it still matter in this world of ours?

And so after your stanza of verse, All you can come up with was a weirdo thing Oh well, the usual on a Christian board.
