In all this, we seem to be denying The Holy Spirit His power to get through to those who want to hear.

Actually, it is little more than that. (a personal opinion) It is a "belief".... NOT a "fact" we can prove to anyone. That is exactly the way it seems God designed it to be.

Do you feel you are incapable of countering a claim like that? I read all your posts, and I KNOW you can speak the words necessary to blow that kind of frail ship right out of the water.

Take all the "action" you want.... but do any of us have the right to tell others they cannot have an opinion that differs from ours?

Do you really want to control the thinking and language of others?

I do that sort of thing in almost half the posts I make. We need to reply with what "we see" as the truth.... NOT be like the mods of other forums we complain about who ban people because their posts do not align with the thinking of the majority. (Frankly, this is the exact thinking of most...

What Jesus taught was condemned by the entire "official" church of that day as, HERETICAL HERESY. We'd best just heed the words of Gamaliel when he told the Sanhedrin they needed to back down. We are not God.

Try watching more than just cleverly edited videos, and you will see a lot more than only what someone plans for you to see.

Yes. That would be about $ 3 million that he has not accepted so far.

It didn't prevent Joel from going on TV later and saying that very thing … WHEN HE WASN'T BROADSIDED IN A TRICK INTERVIEW THE WAY LARRY KING TRIED TO DO.

I'M SORRY, BUT YOU READ THAT INTERVIEW WRONG. LARRY KING DELIBERATELY TRIED VERY HARD, TO GET JOEL TO SAY DERAGATORIALLY, THAT THE JEWS WERE GOING TO HELL. I WAS DISGUSTED JUST WATCHING IT.

You can convince yourself that almost anything is valid. The trick is NOT to just read proponents of any particular doctrine. Read the people teaching the opposite, and at least know you are considering several things.

1 Timothy 1:15 says "AM".... not "WAS."

You are truly disappointing, SG. They also questioned Jesus because of the people He went to...… they weren't "approved" by the church either.

LIST OF SUGGESTED THOUGHTS AS YOU READ AND/OR CONTEMPLATE REPLYING TO SOMEONE...…. EITHER ONLINE OR IN LIFE. _______ “Mistakes happen; nobody’s perfect.” _______ “This situation won’t last forever.” _______ “I’ve already been through many other painful experiences, and I’ve survived.” _______...

An example I often used to new introductees to REBT is this: Imagine yourself driving along when you are abruptly cut-off. The driver speeds on, but this does not keep you from fuming and cussing, thinking somewhat less than kind thoughts about him. About a mile down the road you see this...

Correct.

*Stunnedbygrace*, I want to thank you for bringing this up. It got me to digging back through some of my old school documents, and I ran across The Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills Workbook. Although I focused upon REBT, I began to remember how fascinated I was with DBT. Since I am...

Even Paul told us he did what he did not want to do. Did he hate his own writings? I think you may be jumping to conclusions that are not necessarily Biblically founded.

Gosh! You a Psychiatrist or a Soothsayer?
