    "That Wicked" has problems!

    OK, you are half correct! So now, what is the temple of God, that Jesus so accurately stated, of which we ALL HAVE? Ans. Our bodies! And WHERE does God desire to dwell? Ans. In that "temple that is made without hands". John 14[23] Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    Davy, Don't you know that our bodies are meant for the Lord's indwelling?? If the Lord IS NOT DWELLING within you, guess who is!! YOU ARE, "the natural man", "that man of sin, the son of perdition". Question: Does satan have children? Jesus said that he did! They are known as those who are...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    Ok, then let's see if you can discern the verse you quoted! Which is more likely the situation in the following: 1.The "man of sin" , "the natural man", sitteth (does now sit) in the temple of God, which is their physical bodies. 2. The "man of sin", "THE" Antichrist, shall sit in the brand new...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    I think that you don't know what to think! Try digesting again.

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    I think it is interpreted rather nicely. We all are self evident of being physical, but as to who is "born of the Spirit" as opposed to being "physical", is not readily seen. Therefore, by the description of " the natural man", one can know who is a "New Creature" , and who is not!

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    "It don't mean nuthin"?? Ha! Lol!! . I've quoted it many times, but you can't hear His Voice! Let's try again, if per-adventure God shall counsel you: Rom. 8[9] But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Do try to learn this: The Gospel (Good News) of God the Father, is the Person of Jesus Christ/God the Son, who is The Word made flesh. John 1. Jesus Himself is the Gospel. When one believes in Him, they HAVE OBEYED "THE" Gospel of God!!

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    And that is exactly what happened to the Pharisees!! They derailed because they nit-picked the word of God to death, to the point of splintering splinters. . Yes! The Spirit of God is in the Word of God, but also He Himself, His Being, wants to live within us!! That is/was "The Promise" that...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Actually, because such knowledge from the Lord is "spiritually discerned", every Born Again Christian comprehends and fully understands, that THEY ARE Ambassadors for Christ. It's the "religious crowd" (the tares) that go upside down about 1 Cor. 2, attempting to "discern" who is who, and can...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Also..to come in the name of the lord is to come by his authority, by his direction. > That IS exactly my point!! We must come to others BY HIS power/authority, through the Holy Spirit, who is freely given and deposited within us. THAT is His way! . Has His Holy Spirit (His Power/Authority) been...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Is it as clear cut as that Earburner - I came to faith ' out of the blue ' when I was about 24yrs old - Just felt a prompt to go to church, didn't understand a word, but each Sunday that same prompt would come - I then experienced a ' limbo kind of phase' I didn't have peace - I couldn't go back...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Yes, it was to you, and yes again, I do know why it doesn't make sense to you. Read 1 Cor. 2:14, and learn WHY!! . You have not yet been reconciled with God. You have not fully entered into your "conversion" with Christ to God. Mat. 18:3, John 3:3

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Listen to you, telling me how I came to know the Lord as my Savior! You are a real side show of "religious procedures", of what is an acceptable method, of how God SHOULD operate His own plan of salvation, for all who are lost! . Let me explain what did happen in my life, when all by myself and...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Your "Day of Pentecost" is still waiting FOR YOU!! Acts 2[39] For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    A good clue would be, is to listen to the verse, as to what the Voice of the Holy Spirit is saying, if He is within you. If not, then you are only going to hear YOUR own thoughts, about what YOU THINK (guess) He means! 2 Cor. 5[20] Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did...

    Correction: I am thinking that you are JW or SDA.

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Sorry to say that you STILL don't understand!! The Holy Spirit of God is not within you, because if He was, you would comprehend that simple tenant of faith. You may be a believer in Christ, but "the power of his Holy Spirit" is NOT teaching and guiding you. Something else is, and that would be...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Evidently you don't read the KJV Bible! 1 Cor. 2[14] But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. [15] But he that is spiritual [born again of the Holy Spirit] judgeth all...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Quite literally, you are clueless of who/what "the son of perdition [destruction]" is! He is the unsaved "natural man" . If you will recall, Judas ended his life BEFORE the Day of Pentecost, which was WHEN the free Gift of God's Holy Spirit was made available to the disciples, as well as ALL...

    CNKW3 wrote: "No I do not believe we are transformed in a miraculous way by Christ. Paul is clear that it is through preaching that we are changed. 2 Cor 4 tells us that Gods message is in earthen vessels. So, yes we even today are vessels for Christ. The difference is Paul was a specific CHOSEN...
