    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    To quote what someone said...the verses do not say they weren't slain the spirit. Just one verse for example Acts 9:4 where it says he, Paul fell to the earth. What made him fall to the earth? He had no reason to in the natural. After all he only saw a bright light. If you know what you are...

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    Were you? This is what you said...What we were discussing was gifts of the Holy Spirit. How you get that having a church building or driving a car are gifts of the Holy Spirit is beyond me. You drew that conclusion and I asked you where I said that. Still waiting for your answer. Do you see the...

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    Autistic people are NEVER looking for a fight. They are only looking for the obvious as that is all they can do. When you get into nuances or innuendo, they are out cold. ​I would advise you not to comment if you have no experience of same.

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    Now that I know what a red herring fallacy is, I am pleased to say that my comment was not a red herring fallacy. And for your information, autistic people do not always see what is obvious...to others. Until they have computed it and that can take time, it is double dutch to them. In this case...

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    ​More slip and slide. What we were discussing your penchance to make things up as you go along. Can you show me where I said that having a church building or driving a car are gifts of the Spirit? Last time you said your theology is based on the Word of God. Now you are saying it is based on...

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    No you didn't. You avoided addressing it. I repeat it because you have not addressed it. Slip and slide. Slip and slide. As for your snide and derogatory remark. Ha ha ha ha ha .

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    I must admit that it doesn't bother me one little bit what people call me. I guess that is one blessing of being autistic. I am very secure in myself and what I believe. So, sticks and stones and all that is water off a duck's back. Can you show me where I said barking like a dog is the work...

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    No, I am not part of the Brethren movement. In England, I studied at a Brethren Bible College and then spent 10 years in a charismatic Brethren assembly. I don't know much about the brethren movement here as like all denominations they express themselves in different ways. Where I live there...

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    And there is no biblical support for the church to put up buildings to meet in but that doesn't stop you claiming it is OK to do so. Why isn't the bible your final authority on that subject? The plain fact is there is no biblical support for buildings and the fact that you deem them OK shows...

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    Which only goes to show you pick and choose those things that suit your theology. You slip and slide ad infinitum. No none said it was a sin to have a church building to meet in. I raised the issue and what I said was that nowhere in scripture will you find the church putting up a building to...

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    That doesn't alter the fact that you don't speak for women everywhere.

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    Whatever a red herring logical fallacy is. Try putting it in everyday language. We are not all as clever as you. And you missed the point of the post which was that I do not base my study of anything on one person's views or one verse of scripture. I canvass varying viewpoints and the overall...

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    That is your perception, not mine and as I don't know you from a bar of soap, I am not going to start backtracking on what I said. When she apologizes for calling the work of the Holy Spirit the work of satan (does that bother you?) then I might listen. None of those verses say that they taught...

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    Sorry but you do not speak for women everywhere. The stream that I am most associated with, the women have no desire whatsoever to have authority over men. The men had a gentle authority that we all respected and the women were full of humility and had a servant spirit, something that seems to...

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    Sorry ozpen, but I NEVER base what I believe on the views of ONE person. NEVER as it is no different to basing what you believe on one verse. I attended a Brethren Bible College for my theology degree and was taught that is anathema. For example, I did a study of New Testament Life which took...

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    I will tell you what I don't like and this is the honest truth. I don't like anyone calling the work of the Holy Spirit the work of satan as it is an insult to the risen Christ and the sooner you learn that the better for you. So far most of your posts have fallen into this category so you are...

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    More rubbish from you as I will clearly show. Female apostle Junia. There is doubt that she is a she. As it is not conclusive, no one can make a case using her/him. Saying "honest fellas, get over yourself" is not exactly a sign that you have developed a thing known as grace. No one has said...

    SLAIN IN THE SPIRIT?

    Here the whole chapter in the literal translation..... First of all then, I exhort that petitions, prayers, supplications, and thanksgivings be made on behalf of all men, for kings and all the ones being in high position, that we may lead a tranquil and quiet existence in all godliness and...
