    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    The above is the feeling I get when I discuss hearing from the Lord and try to discuss it with Christians who are making it about Scriptures instead of actually knowing the Lord our God, Jesus Christ, like the Scriptures tells to. There is a huge difference between actually walking and talking...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    If indeed a person is relying on their "dependence on Yahweh to provide understanding and truth" that is humility. But relying on your understanding of the Scriptures instead of actually relying on Jesus (Yahweh if we are communicating in Hebrew, but we are not) then in fact you are into your...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    Actually the above post needs to be broken down and we will clearly see the problem - though who wants to see their problem? If a person believes the Scriptures they will seek the Lord Jesus Christ by faith and hear from Him!! And even the worse translation of the Bible has that information...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    Did I not provide enough Scriptures - and what Scriptures did you actually discuss? I only briefly looked back and what you have written on this thread about hearing God, and did not see any, not even one, Scripture you actually quoted. But what I did note was that you claimed that if a person...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    Do you? If Yeshua - which in the American language, we call Jesus - is in fact the mediator between you and His Father then you listen to Him!!! If then you listen to Him, like the His Father said!!! And while that is recorded in the translations: Jn 9:35 Then a voice came out of the cloud...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    To me, this is so sad!! Spyder is looking to the Scriptures, and is saying in his heart that Jesus the Christ is either dead or in a far away place called heaven so people (meaning himself) cannot possibly hear from Him Today!! That is the reason people write things like: "In a Christianity...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    Is it really the Scriptures or Jesus that tell us about Jesus? The fact is that the Scriptures are meant to give us the wisdom that can lead us to Jesus!! 2 Tim 3:15 and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    YES, YES, YES!! THIS IS SO RIGHT!! If we are proud, we are not going to seek Him, but just go along thinking we don't need Him! WE won't take the time we have to hear what He has to say to us via the "small internal voice" of His. Now if anyone is worried about, or thinking that He won't...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    How silly? There are words from Satan in the Bible - So Satan's words are now the Word of God??? Jesus however is the Word of God - that is in fact His name according to the Bible: Rev 19:13 He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. So the book you...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    Did you not even read how the whole world cannot contain Him? So you think He is in your Bible?? Amazingly. The Word of God (Jesus is near us) at all times!! So we go to the grocery store and talk to Him about what to buy. We go to work and get advise on what to do. We can hear Him anytime and...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    The first words the Lord told me personally were "READ YOUR BIBLE", but in doing so I found it written: Rev 1:17When I saw Him, I fell at His feet like a dead man. And He placed His right hand on me, saying, “Do not be afraid; I am the first and the last, Rev 22:13 “I am the Alpha and the...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    The above is actually a correct and very wise statement - but only if you understand that Jesus is the Word of God and He is a person, even the Son of God and the KING OF KINGS AND LORD OR LORDS, whom His Father place on the throne over all things!! Sadly a religious spirit has people looking...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    No, God speaks His sheep via His Holy Spirit!! But you and I have gone round and round on this like Jesus went round and round about this with the Pharisees! But for the sake of others I will provide a verse that shows you wrong. Jn 6:63 “It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    These would be good question, but only God is good and they are not from God!!! Still, I will help you, by using the Bible as instructed! Rev 3:19,20 ‘Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline; therefore be zealous and repent. ‘Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    Do you not read the "If anyone"??? That is to "anyone", not just you. Indeed, most of what I am writing is to anyone, because this is a public forum. So when Jesus said something like: Jn 5: 46,47 “For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me, for he wrote about Me. “But if you do not...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    Do we not see where Cyd has it wrong? Right of Cyd writes "God said this to "the man", failing to realize that it was not said to him but to 'the man'. Therefore Cyd makes a conclusion, based upon his own understanding, that the Lord did not also say it to Eve!!! That is: Cyd concedes that...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    Over and over again, we see where people are making the Bible the Word of God instead of Jesus. When people do that it shows up in what they say and do. And it is obvious that we all do it to some extent, but that is going back to leaning on our own understanding instead of leaning on what the...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    OK - the verse reads: The woman said to the serpent, “From the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat; but from the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not eat from it or touch it, or you will die.’” Note that it does not read 'God told Adam'...

    Hearing the Lord, and pride vs humility

    Yeah - this thread was not created as a "How To", but rather that we seek and hear the Lord if we are humble - and that we don't seek and hear from the Lord if we are not humble! Now I certainly don't mind discussing the "How to hear from the Lord topic" and I have done so a number of times on...

    Interesting Christian behaviors and customs which I like....

    And the bread and wine tradition is not about wafers and grape juice or wine, that tradition is also about hearing Jesus Christ via the Holy Spirit, just like the tradition of water baptism is!!! Jesus said He was the true mana (bread) that came down out of heaven, and His name is called the...
