This bit here I like quite well...

1 John 5:13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life. Perhaps you should tell God His scripture is "mans doctrine"

Wow... I find this amusing on many different levels. First off the churches listed in the book of Revelation are actual churches in Asia overseen by John the Apostle. Drawing a conclusion to different western churches throughout time is simply a game. With a simple shuffle of the names and...

Sorry for the delay in response, I am extremely busy right now... You make a case for "spiritual power" over "brain power" as to which I must agree, but as you admit it is possible to have both. Your point is moot. Now to the case in point... It's relevancy is apparent in your statement...

No earthquake...

James 2:19 19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. There is only one gospel that brings salvation. Proclaim differently and you are anti-Christ.

If free will is your king and not God... then freely save yourself. I have written extensively here on the subject of free will, maybe some day I might get around to adding to it. http://www.christianityboard.com/topic/17398-god-over-free-will-take-2/ I also started a thread on OSAS...

You obviously do not realise it but your position is already clear. Grab any verse you can to try and prove your unbiblical eisegesis. I know. I never said he wasn't. Obviously your decision to ignore what I have said is also irrelevant. Check the facts. Teaching is a gift of the ascended...

Heavenly Father, Creator of all, Sovereign over all, I beseech you in all humility; heal the hearts of all who read these words. Strengthen the resolve of faith in the souls that desire peace. Comfort the hope in Hopeless that you are a God of mercy, that you are a faithful God who is there...

There is no mention of the gift of teaching in this passage. If I answered in the same vein as the questions were asked I could say of course I know everything about God but I will let you make the judgement as you are good at it. One of the regular visitors to our church was Derek Prince...

Actually NASB :)

James 1:26-27 26 If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless. 27 Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep...

I think he is saying Paul did not mean they really were slaves to God, but they need to earn that title. Maybe he thinks the Holy Spirit was being facetious there. Maybe I am the facetious one now. Christ Alone!

Take a dose of mud in your eye and call me in the morning! And if I were you I would watch what I was doing. There is an account, joking aside, where Jesus laid His hands twice. Mark 8:22-26 22 And they came to Bethsaida. And they brought a blind man to Jesus and implored Him to touch him...

As to your straw man argument I do not deny Jesus is the seed of the woman and in the line of Adam. Genesis 3:15 15 And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her seed; He shall bruise you on the head, And you shall bruise him on the heel.” Yet this does...

Well as far as good works are concerned, I encourage them. I do not fear them at all in fact I relish them, for they bring honor and glory to our Father who is in heaven. Yet in these I do not feel I am doing anything to secure my salvation through such. The only One able to secure my...

John 1:1-5 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men...

Marksman, Is the ascended Christ void of the Spirit? Is not the Trinity one God? 1 Corinthians 12:4-11 4 Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 And there are varieties of ministries, and the same Lord. 6 There are varieties of effects, but the same God who works all things...

Romans 10:8-10 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart”—that is, the word of faith which we are preaching, 9 that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; 10 for with the...

Lets look to the scriptures... Proverbs 18:15 - The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge. Proverbs 12:1 - Whoso loveth instruction loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof [is] brutish. Hosea 4:6 - My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge...
