    Where do people get the spiritual authority?

    If you say so, I just look at what John stated. I don’t mind being wrong according to you, if what I’m stating within my own perception is true.

    Where do people get the spiritual authority?

    Im looking forward to someone whom is able to make the "Letters" sent to specific people at a certain time that we never lived in, written to them today. The Bible was never written "TO" any of us, though it was written "FOR" us as a benefit to learn the dealing between God and Man. If...

    Where do people get the spiritual authority?

    @ScottA, I don't believe you and I see the scripture in the same way. I don't even know what you are saying, and I don't believe the Spirit causes confusion. Im someone who believes that Yeshua has completed everything, and the only thing left to do is have faith, live, love, and die.

    Stoicism - This is what I believe, no matter the truth...

    BTW, People reap what they sow, and choose what they want to do. Everyone is truly responsible for themselves in the end. I agree with you people whom hear something, they should go and test things by what is given in the Bible if that is the overall message, you are sharing. Reject...

    God is not a respecter of persons. Unbeliever, or believer a like. There is no favors. You just make the choice to have faith and trust him, or remain in the sin of unbelief.

    Do you believe the suffering is part of the walk of faith?

    While nothing compares to the suffering the Bride of Christ had went through in their day in age. Is there suffering that people who are faithful go through? Independantly. Some people believe Americans hate Christians, or whatever... but most will just be indifferent, and no one is being put...

    Stoicism - This is what I believe, no matter the truth...

    I don't like any of it. It's by ones own faith a person stands firm, according to Paul. I know one thing is for sure, I don't believe its good to trust me, or anyone else on the matters one comes to when they read the bible for themselves. They should trust Yahavah, God, over man... But at...

    ARE YOU ABLE TO HEAL THE SICK?

    Hey Doug, I am someone who just believes Yahavah is calling to all people today. Regardless if a person knows everything about Jesus, or perhaps they dont even got a bible to read. Yahavah can connect to those whom look towards him, and those who are absent of him, Yahavah continues to call...

    ARE YOU ABLE TO HEAL THE SICK?

    I believe it refers how Yahavah will interact with the world itself. By writing on the minds and hearts of those whom are his. But if you a person whom is "ISRAEL" only I understand. Paul stated "Not all of Isarel is Israel." Meaning being part of Heavenly Jerusalem - Hebrews 12: But you...

    Where do people get the spiritual authority?

    That is a message to Timothy. "Scripture" to him is the Old Testament, not the Apostolic Record which had been given within that timeframe. While I agree people can learn from the scriptures, that doesn't make "end times" for us today. Except death. That is the only end time I know of. No...

    Where do people get the spiritual authority?

    There is a part of Yahavah living in everyone. Whether they spiritually awaken in the Spirit or not, I don't know. https://www.christianityboard.com/threads/your-soul-is-god-given-bible-study.67364/

    ARE YOU ABLE TO HEAL THE SICK?

    I just like to use them. God is a title, not a name. God has a name so therefore I use it, because I like to use his name. The name "Yahavah" is used to refer to God in the original Hebrew text of the Old Testament. It means "Presence," "Breath," "Life," and "Love," and also signifies that God...

    Where do people get the spiritual authority?

    I don't understand why people don't leave the authority to Yahavah himself. He is the one whom can write on the heart and minds of those whom are his, that means those who actively seek him in faith. They say the Bible is the authority, but why not Yahavah himself? As though he is incompetent...

    Where do people get the spiritual authority?

    SIH, I was that guy walking around looking at everyone, they dont pray like me, they dont read the bible like me. I looked at them in spite, all in the work place when I first came to actually reading the bible at 26 years old. I continued to believe, and slowly over time I changed when...

    Okay judge.

    ARE YOU ABLE TO HEAL THE SICK?

    I believe miracles can happen, but that is not the primary focus of a relationship with Yahavah. Or God, cause no one ever uses his name.

    ARE YOU ABLE TO HEAL THE SICK?

    While I believe people have the freedoms to believe whatever they want. I don't believe anyone can prove they have ever actually healed a human being. If Yahavah has healed you, that is all fine and great, you are still gonna die. So I wouldn't live on a miracle, but faith and continuing until...

    Where do people get the spiritual authority?

    @Pearl, The context is important, I am not saying that the words Yeshua's spoke we can not learn from them in how to go about life in the Spirit of Christ within us. I believe there is a lot of benefit as long as the scripture is not making people hate other people, and they are fortified...
