This might be a tangent, ScottA Very thankful for God and what he has done for the whole world by and through his Son Jesus Christ. It is not my prerogative to judge other people here on this forums, though it is good to challenge oneself to get the mind working and thinking, though I am not...

the Bible is profitable to anyone who learns verse by verse, and historical context and understanding the day in age that they lived in, people will hear what they will coming into the place, and then after the lesson is over, they will leave and go on to live their life, and the word of God has...

The thing is if someone is teaching the Word of God - @Christophany to a congregation and you mention like the scriptures you went over before, from the sexual immorality, while teaching that you would do so in the historical aspect of the times and age going on in the country. You will be...

Having God be the authority must leave to much room for freedom, and liberty in Christ, what are your thoughts on that @ScottA? (realizing we individually will go to God alone to be judged upon death). No authority will be there to state our case, it will be us standing naked before God who...

Hello ScottA, That would make sense! Indeed that would be the case. It is unfortunate. I do not mind that at all, as God does move people to share and do things by the Holy Spirit, and I believe anything that comes from the spirit is going to be in humility, and being truthful, with all the...

Okay. Wrangler.

That did not answer me the question in your own words brother, that is what I am looking for not to be pointed towards Timothy. Should people who teach in church... Should they be honest in that they all fall short, and it is Jesus Christ, and focusing on God and allow him to help us by the...

I have my own problems and falling short of sins as I can be impatient, and sometimes I can get angry if someone is not paying attention to what I had been saying, however it is always Jesus who helps me hold those things back, I am never going to be perfect pure and blameless, like the people...

Anyone who is over a church they should be humble and open and honest and apparent that they themselves also have sin, if they are going to be teaching in my opinion. What do you think @farouk, @Christophany? Should they be honest in that they all fall short, and it is Jesus Christ, and...

You can get a tattoo at any age you feel like. Skin sags but you can put it back and make it tight.

@Christophany Just because one quotes scriptures doesn't mean anything. Anyone can do that, I do not understand where you get the authority from to make demands by quoting the scriptures over people as though they have authority? You may not realize that God is the authority, you can share...

@Christophany did you take a look at post number 5, to get an understanding of my perspective? I do not care if a person is leading a Church or whatever... The problem comes in when they start making demands on other people. Not everyone is like that, however some are... I remember one time...

The Lord is my helper, what shall mere mortals do? They can tell lies about you, they can try to scare you with intimidation, they can kill you.

Apostles were known as the scum of the earth. To some people with tattoos they are looked at as the scum of the earth. Doing it for Jesus, who cares what they think.

1 Cor 4:1 and stewards of the mysteries of God Let us expound some more scripture on this, Steward is different than a Servant. Steward: oikonomos oy-kon-om'-os From G3624 and the base of G3551; a house distributor (that is, manager), or overseer, that is, an employee in that capacity; by...

Yes.

Apostolic Authority. All gone and dead. Bible is still valuable to learn about God and Jesus, the apostles and anything else one would like to learn.

I don't, since the death of John the Beloved the last living apostle died off, after all the other ones had be martyred. Thank you for sharing. Disagree. Thank you for sharing.

What has been learned so far? Paul, was an Apostle of Jesus Christ, and he was a servant and also a steward ( the manager of the household of faith - pertaining to the Apostles authority - and directive over the Churches (Assemblies) until Jesus had came back to gather the bride. John the...

Hello @Christophany Please refer to post 5, to understand what I am saying.
