Stop it....You keep telling me and other on this forum we are wrong soooo apparently Scott A decides....not God. If God does decide then don't ever tell me I am wrong again and just tell me you have a different opinion.....Mary

You just defeated your own argument (theory) and you probably don't even realize it........Diversity does not equal all being one and perfection. Churches that bless abortion clinics, perform gay marriages, allow multiple wives etc. is not "diversity"....It's called teaching the opposite of...

Soooo who decides which men who have claimed to be guided by the Holy Spirit actually were guided by the Holy Spirit and which of those men were "evil" in their claim? How do you decide which "men of different bents on the truth" to follow and believe? Mary

Honestly.....Of all the reading I have done about him I don't recall if that was ever covered. I know he was a teacher and witnesses say a good one. I also know he was kicked out of community because they suspected he killed another man in cold blood and if I remember correctly stealing from...

Chauvinistic and arrogant....Not a good combination. :(

LOL....You crack me up. Soooo when you said that you "....agree that there ought to be leaders in the church" you were talking about a leader (singular) not leaders (plural)? o_O You also said that those leaders "are to take responsibility for taking the gospel to the world". What you really...

Hi Scott, Many of men have thought that the Holy Spirit has guided them into the Truth and they all had different truths. So who is confused Scott....Them or the Holy Spirit? Your theory that all Christians are guided by the Spirit into the Truth is called relativism and it is dangerous.... Mary

Hi Stranger, I worked with men all my adult career so your chauvinism doesn't bother me. I hope your parents didn't raise you to be chauvinistic. If they didn't I hope they don't know what you have become. :( No, they all didn't die. :( Thank God their desire to continue this great Country...

Who is the leader of your church? Curious Mary

Thanks Scott. John 17:20-23 has NOTHING to do with Jesus sending the Holy Spirit to guide all Christians into truth. If your theory were true then any teaching opposite of the Apostles by the disciples (students) of the Apostles would be true also. There can't be two truths sooooo your theory...

Thanks Pearl. We are sisters in Christ. :rolleyes: I am not trying to change your mind either. The words I gave you were not my words they were the words of Jesus and the Apostles. Hopefully THEY will change your mind; not me. Thank you....Peace to you also...Mary

Hi Scott, In John 16:13 Jesus is talking to his Apostles and that statement is meant for them ONLY. It is not meant for every Christian for all eternity that the Spirit will come and guide them into all truth. That is a why there is sooooo much division in Christianity because everyone thinks...

Thank you for your research Pearl. Scripture says a bit more than that (Acts 4:32-35) about a "template and pattern for the ideal church". The passage you provided ONLY speaks of sharing possessions. That is very important but sadly not practiced by most Christians.:( You seem to loathe the...

LOL....You don't have to read the link kiddo....Just read the headline....;) I do remember the "compatriots who fought for the South" and pray that their pro-enslavement of their fellow human beings beliefs that they fought for (and thankfully died for) will never poison this great country...

Yes, every day!! I pray that you hold up a Christian as a hero of yours instead of a stone cold thieving killer. I pray that you realize how your support of enslaving of another human being is not Christian like. Mary

Thank you. I agree, "stories get embellished with age". Where is your evidence that any of those non-biblical 'oral traditions', such as the Gospel of James, have been embellished? Mary PS...Since @Pearl "liked" your statement maybe she could help you with your research. :rolleyes:

Thank you Enoch. IMO Pope Francis, as of now, has not proven to be the best choice to lead The Church but I wouldn't call him a joke. In your opinion was there any Pope that was not a joke? For every book you present that debunks miracles I could present two that affirms them thru sworn...

???????

And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Hi brakelite......Do you believe that those "many other things which Jesus did" were never spoken of...

I read this article and thought of you: Mainline Protestantism Declared A Safe Space For Those Offended By The Gospel Keeping it fun....Mary
