Gee John you mention all works but no faith? What you present is not the gospel. :mellow: What happened to faith in the death, burial, and resurrection in our Lord Jesus Christ?

Rex, You are attempting to use a scripture that speaks nothing of reading minds. I am glad you have no confidence in me although cynicism is not a novel Christian trait. Keep you confidence in Christ! Ok since we are attempting to make inferences in accordance with scripture I will join in...

Thanks for posting this. It is great!

1 Peter 1:10-12 10 As to this salvation, the prophets who prophesied of the grace that would come to you made careful searches and inquiries, 11 seeking to know what person or time the Spirit of Christ within them was indicating as He predicted the sufferings of Christ and the glories to...

In my opinion there is nothing to judge. Perhaps you had a sinless past but I did not. You can refer to post #50 to see my response to what you present.

I don't. I just recounted the story as I remember it happening. Truly it was about 20+ years ago now. I spoke nothing of God you did. And now it appears that you are the one capable of reading minds or at least able to tell God's sovereign plans. Please understand, I have nothing to gain in...

We are talking about satan, not men. To say satan would get involved with their situation, and that God would allow it, would be mere speculation. I have actually done an extensive study in Daniel and Revelation. As a created being satan is limited, yet we have current studies of both...

Clearly you are cynical. Good luck with that you will need it. :blink: Oh and could you clarify exactly where the word of God says satan can't read minds?

And the female shepherds are to pastor females and children in the flock, similar to a role some pastor's wives play, while the male shepherds are to pastor to the entire flock. Women can have strong leading skills with great knowledge and wisdom. It is only the context in which they shepherd...

I do not believe God to be partial to gender in bestowing any gifts.

Sure women receive these gifts. ^_^

The genetic code suggests that the earth's population of humanity shrunk down to about 8,000. The timing of this event is debated but many suggest it was about 4,000 years ago. I believe it was much smaller, such as 8, but I am not a scientist. :D

Can you please clarify your second point. I am saying I believe women receive the HolySpirit and other gifts in the Lord. We can only pray that pastors have wisdom and knowledge. We do know today that some who claim to be pastors do not have these gifts.

If it is I have offended you, I am truly sorry. My love for you in the Lord is true, yet I cannot concede to what I perceive as false teaching. Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! This is where I see falseness in what what you attempt to convey. You see the Apostle...

I have direct experience here, yet as already stated scripture is silent in this area. This experience involved myself and a different individual, a brother in the Lord, and a Ouija board. The spirit that manifested called himself satan, and the evil thing I made that night by hand would...

So according to your misinterpretation of the Romans passage Phebe is a bishop above Paul the apostle? :wacko: I make this observation because of the ending of the verse "and of myself also" Interesting the lengths people will go to to attempt to eisegete their pet doctrines.

Romans 13:1 1 Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those which exist are established by God. 2 Therefore whoever resists authority has opposed the ordinance of God; and they who have opposed will receive condemnation...

I say many are not living in Christ. This is not to scare anyone, but salvation is not something to just check off on the list and forget. Those who are saved live it out; we grab our cross daily and deny ourselves just as this man speaks. Our hope is in Him who is the just and the justifier...

This again proves your incorrect usage of scripture. Context, context, context. 2 “You only have I chosen among all the families of the earth; Therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.” 3 Do two men walk together unless they have made an appointment? 4 Does a lion roar in the...

The eisegesis you have done proves nothing, sorry but we will have to agree to disagree. Christ's blessings!
