    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...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    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...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    "That someone preaching today is guided by the word. Not through some direct operation of the Spirit. This is how we have so many churches teaching and practicing different doctrines. They all say they are led by the Spirit. But it’s funny how the Spirit never teaches the same thing. He teaches...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    WRONG!! Every person who is literally born again by the Person of His Holy Spirit, is a NEW creature (creation) in Christ Jesus, and therefore ARE ALL Ambassadors for Christ! . Both God the Father and God the Son together, are the Holy Spirit of God/Christ. John 14[23] Jesus answered and said...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    Correction: I am proving my point, and staying with the chapter. The context of it, reveals that the chapter is to be understood in the plural, but because of the inserted singular words of 400 years ago, it confuses the chapter, and doesn't add up, when read in conjunction with 2 Thes. 1:7-10...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    The Pharisees did a good job of it with "the written word" also. So much so, they "didn't know the time of their visitation". Will that be you, when you realize that you are front and center, in the day of Jesus' sudden return, in flaming fire, wondering whatever happened to your "boy" "THE"...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    Don't forget The Church of "Disney". Now there's a "One Worlder" operation, if I ever saw one!

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Actually, a vessel is a container made purposely to contain something. We were made for God Himself to DWELL IN. We are the "temples that are made without hands"! God wants to fill us with Himself.

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Actually, you missed the whole point of God's Righteousness. God's Righteousness IS HIMSELF, who was Jesus, being God IN THE FLESH! Jesus Himself IS THE Gospel! He is God's GIFT to the world!! . Mat. 5:19-20 I challenge all to tell me how it is that the least and great are in the KoH/KoG...
