Of course, and that is what he also said. But his point was that niceness is only half. Do you agree that Jesus expressed both and was not just nice, therefore we too should not only be nice?

And that is where and why, the nice half-doctrine is justified by many. So, your tit, for his tat...doesn't really accomplish anything...well except support his claims because he also listed both the nice and the righteous, not just the nice.

I have not watched his other videos, but this one is right on--righteous.

I love it! Now, if we could just apply that to the doctrine presently being taught within the church...which is ultimately more important.

I love that Jesus' story is simple. As a basis for compassion and how we ought to handle such things--I love it! I do however, wish things were always that simple, and of course they're not. The other side of that coin--that good Samaritan story and principle--is it often gets used to justify...

Are you well? Because what was posted (here it is below) is not hard to comprehend--and yes you just twisted it again! But no, you asked me about "false teachings." So, if you are not well, just say so and I won't engage you. And you likewise should not engage me. PS, For your understanding...

Not according to those who take up context to rule over their own idea of exegesis. As for "ripping words out of context"--Paul did exactly that. But you have already rejected the idea that Jesus could or did break context, why would you believe anything different about one whom He has sent?

As I said, there is much more also written regarding the diminishing effects over time. Just as Jesus, said, "And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold." But the point--and I explained that too--is not to read anything into the text or change anything, but to point...

That has already been addressed in post #49.

David's words and the context of his own suffering: Psalm 22:1 "My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?" Jesus's words, broken out of David's context and put into His own context: Matthew 27:46 “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?" ...and He is not the only one who the scriptures...

You are wrong about the seven days of creation, as it is written, "Behold, the former things have come to pass, And new things I declare; Before they spring forth I tell you of them.” From there, just as with the unfolding of many generations, the word of God is also unfolded in parts, "For...

We do need to be careful with context however, even Jesus broke context, and yet the modern exegesis used by the "many" has ruled against it.

“Surely, as the Lord lives, you have been upright, and your going out and your coming in with me in the army is good in my sight. For to this day I have not found evil in you since the day of your coming to me." Samuel 29:6

No, you're right, it's like falling off a log! What is hard is the finding and entering in. The "many" that Jesus said never do have a tough time giving up what they apparently value more about this world and what they have gotten comfortable with. The big one, is the flesh. Heaven forbid one...

Yes, unlike the "broad" way which is easy and doesn't require any discomfort, the "narrow" way is a squeeze and even changes a person.

I was specifically addressing the numbers as diminishing purposely, as it is so apparent during these present times. But you make a good point--and yes, some is just the opposite of diminishing, and some is pure--Hallelujah! Two out of three ain't bad! Which is a good reminder that God is...

Thanks for that--indeed, there is an easy that is good...but you know what I mean.

No, I said "a bag lunch"--and you just twisted it to suit your false witness against me. To the contrary, a "bag lunch" is only for your time away--whereas, the word of God is forever. My point was, that you have repeatedly quenched the Spirit by limiting your claims of the word of God to what...

That is not at all true! Was everything that came into the mind by the Holy Spirit of all who have been born of the spirit of God since Pentecost get "written down" or included in the canon of scripture? Why do you continue to quench the Spirit--is it not written "Do not quench the Spirit?"...

Well, no wonder! First you need to understand what I said, and not read into it your worse ideas. And, no...you just "twisted" what I have said. Why should I even respond to you--do you not know that we should not "cast our pearls to swine?" You deserved that. I have said nothing of what you...
