9 Whoever says he is in the light and hates his brother is still in darkness. 10 Whoever loves his brother abides in the light, and in him there is no cause for stumbling. 11 But whoever hates his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness, and does not know where he is going, because...

Thou shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor.

I noticed that you skipped the first day in your post. That's because there was no time before the first day. Tell me is the earth flat and square because scripture refers to its corners? Or are the stars all smaller than the sun? If you're Christian why don't you love Jesus Christ and keep His...

You worship a tiny god of your imagination. I worship the Lord of glory (and I understand special relativity which isn't in the Bible, but nevertheless true.)

Time is short. Shorter for some people than others, though we don't generally know just when we're going home. I've always thought everyone desired purpose, some purpose, any purpose, and what higher purpose exists than serving God. That's a good desire. However, a sovereign God chooses how we...

Worldliness.

OK, but remember that you're interacting only with what other people let you see of themselves (and that isn't very much at all.) None of us are the best judge of our own character. None of us can assess our own wisdom. Only a fool imagines that he's omniscient. For all you know, I or anyone...

Sorry, this isn't really biblical either. Saints don't grow to be elevated. They grow in grace which actually means that they grow in humility, seeing more and more of their sin and loving God all the more for it. If they actually do grow, then it's toward being an elder and acknowledging that...

God is eternal. Time is entirely irrelevant to the Father. He could change the past now if He wanted to, but everything is exactly as it's supposed to be (we have His word which confirms this.) The only way God measures time is by looking at His creation. He can see yesterday or the first day...

Thank you. There are a lot of verses about fellowship and unity in the Spirit, participation in service in the body of Christ, etc. I find it very disturbing that anyone should intentionally separate themselves from the fellowship of the saints if they aren't homebound. Satan is described as a...

I haven't a clue what you are. I don't know you from Adam. However, you appear to be in agreement with this foolish and unbiblical notion that the saints must walk alone. That was a necessity before the Holy Spirit was given, but just plain ignorant of the teaching under the New Covenant. You...

I answered your response. There was no church in the days of the prophets, the Holy Spirit was not given to permanently indwell anyone, and only a very few people had access to God. Now, every believer in Christ Jesus who asks for His Spirit to guide him into all righteousness in submission to...

Time is a fourth spatial dimension and part of creation. God is not part of creation, but entered creation, so yes, the immortal invisible God existed before time and outside of time. However, since He desired us to know Him and love Him, He entered time in the person of His Holy Spirit and in...

If you believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and was raised from the dead, you can pray to receive Him in submission to His will, and He will give you His Spirit and make you a part of the body of Christ. He'll take all that hatred and bitterness from you and set you among the brethren...

Thanks for the answer. I've got your number now. Have a nice life and keep up the "good" work.

These passages have nothing to do with the church and saints under the new covenant. The prophets existed before the church. Only prophets, priests, and kings were given His Spirit. Now every born again believer is given His Spirit. You've missed the entire point of the gospel message and the...

A good work is a good work regardless of motive. That's what scripture teaches. That's what Jesus taught. 6 “Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven. 2 Therefore, when you do a charitable deed...

Take from it what you can, but it's not a church, it's a mixed multitude. You know what happened to the mixed multitude that followed Moses out of Egypt, right? All but two died in the wilderness. Corrupting influence is just that, corrupting influence. 4 I charge you therefore before God and...

9 Two are better than one, Because they have a good reward for their labor. 10 For if they fall, one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls, For he has no one to help him up. Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 A man who isolates himself seeks his own desire; He rages against all...

I've read the passage dozens of times and this was by no means private teaching. The gospels themselves are written so that people would believe, not just as edification for those who already do. You still haven't provided any argument to support your original statement nor defined what you...
