Consider that everyone, or perhaps nearly everyone, on this forum and other forums, believes he teaches God's Way. It is certainly my intention to do so. When these teachings appear contradictory to each other, is someone unknowingly teaching a lie? Is someone then a liar even without knowing...

Neither do I believe that God is a Multiplicity, but... I am not a Trinitarian. Due to this I used these verses against people who insisted that John 10:30 established a Trinity. But... I am on the verge of discussing that which is not allowed here. I will say no more on that. I have never met...

Joh 10:30 I and my Father are one. Joh 17:11 And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. Jas 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray...

When I am following the lead of the Holy Spirit, I am on God's Way; when I am not following His lead, I am on my own way. Who among us having received the Holy Spirit never quenches the Holy Spirit? Is this not why Paul was inspired to write this? 1th 5:19 Quench not the Spirit.

Indeed, ultimately only two choices: God's Way or our own! One of the best examples I see in Scripture of a fallible man who served God in spite of his stumbles and fumbles was David... but Jesus provides for us the perfect example. How much like Him are we able to be? What do we have that...

Was he the greatest Christian who ever lived? What did he write about making such comparisons? 2co 10:12 For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among...

Paul is a man, a special man called by God, but I must leave you to some of your conclusions. Indeed... "as I follow Christ" [I Cor 11:1] Being led by the Spirit, we will be following Christ as well as those sent to help us: Eph 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some...

Who but God is able to examine all of the evidence? How important is faith? Heb 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Joh 6:44 No man can come to me, except the...

When we lived in town where door knocking was easier, we used to get both JWs and LDS visitors regularly. When I was not really busy, I would always invite them in because in both cases they wanted to talk about the Bible and God. I enjoyed that especially because there were few others who...

Do you suppose that the Apostle Paul ever wrote anything in his epistles that he did not fully understand?

I only asked questions. Does God ever use the mouth of anyone to speak His message without explaining everything to the messenger? What is the Word of God?

And with the gift of the Holy Ghost, what is impossible? And to whom is the promise? What promise is that? Perhaps "for the remission of sins" as well as to receive the gift of the Holy Ghost? Ac 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus...

Nothing wrong getting back to the Bible and digging deeper, so long as we are also letting the Holy Spirit always lead us. The Bible studying perhaps most will understand, but the other necessary part too many will miss and with it they miss in spite of being excellent Bible students... 2co...

To expose what is wrong I believe we must know what is wrong and/or be directed by God in what we are doing. I know what I believe, but I also know that in my own past, I have been found wrong, so unless I am certain, I proceed cautiously. God always knows. Do we always hear His voice on all of...

Lu 1:80 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his showing unto Israel. And what do any of us still lack? Ro 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Are all of us still coming up short of all that God has to offer or...

Yes, that's the kind of deal God makes with us. He will hold up His end. Will we hold up ours? With His help we can.

Aye... and to presume the worst about another person simply because the label they bear is not very Christ-like. What did the apostle Paul mean by this? Php 2:3 Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.
