    Ezekiel 37 I can't wrap my head around this, any help would be a blessing

    This is the Messianic take on things that denies that there is no difference between Jew and Gentile in Christ. It is Dispensationalist. It denies that the 2 flocks coming together is the One New Man. And it denies Jesus as the Head of this Body.

    Teaching style and value.

    One of the consistent hallmarks of the teachings of Jesus and His followers has been the cost of discipleship. The way forward is difficult and narrow. Jesus tells us this quite plainly. People have been trying to avoid the cross ever since.

    The actual arrogance is that you set yourself up as a paradigm of orthodoxy. You just don't like to be challenged in your rigidity to a doctrinal system that is broken....overly simplistic...and self serving. I'm claiming that there is more to it than has entered into your limited view. The...

    Ezekiel 37 I can't wrap my head around this, any help would be a blessing

    Ez. 37 the valley of dry bones.... is about the whole house of Israel....but it has other connotations as well. It is about the coming together of Israel by the Spirit....both Jews and Gentiles. Judah and Ephraim. They shall have One shepherd who is Christ our Lord. But it is also about...

    Ezekiel 21 Destroy the Righteous Along With the Wicked

    This is exactly right Harvest...

    Ezekiel 21 Destroy the Righteous Along With the Wicked

    The wilderness is a place of testing...of preparing. If we can trust God through it...no problem.

    Ezekiel 21 Destroy the Righteous Along With the Wicked

    That was my word...lost. The wicked are destroyed in the lake of fire.

    Ezekiel 21 Destroy the Righteous Along With the Wicked

    Exactly! :) It says the whole world was populated from these 3. The 4th was lost. The wicked perish.

    The Problem With The Trinity

    This is not abiding in Him....to not renounce? It is as I thought. You see abiding as holding a certain doctrinal stance....not a walk in a supernatural way. So the scale is too small. This is very common nowadays. People think abiding means going at it in one's own effort....while staying...

    The Problem With The Trinity

    Not to bear holy fruit? You have a superior detail?

    Straining out gnats again?;)

    Ezekiel 21 Destroy the Righteous Along With the Wicked

    And rather than trust in His faithfulness....they grumbled and complained.

    The Problem With The Trinity

    You get lost in the details if you can't see the big picture. Imagine settling down on a piece of land...building a house and planting a garden. Then, other people come and say that you are on their land. When you check their claim...they are right. You did everything wonderfully...but for...

    The Problem With The Trinity

    Yes,,,but one must understand the scale of that. We are to bear a holy fruit....perfect as God is perfect.

    The Problem With The Trinity

    yes. The whole law is the whole duty of man. We are to fear the Lord and keep His commandments. But God is also merciful. So if we are humble and don't judge others....God can have mercy on us...even though we don't do so well.

    Ezekiel 21 Destroy the Righteous Along With the Wicked

    God was angry with them and He swore they would not enter into His rest. So then God IS watching and evaluating our walks right here....right now.

    Ezekiel 21 Destroy the Righteous Along With the Wicked

    How many that walked in the wilderness died there? Never to enter the promised land? This gives you an idea of an eternal destiny of those who are not dead in the lake of fire...not in the kingdom of God either...but are wanderers in the wilderness forever.

    I'm an "out-of-the-box person"... Fundamental ...meaning popular misconceptions. Dogma really does get in the way of life. You have to choose one or the other.

    Ezekiel 21 Destroy the Righteous Along With the Wicked

    Yes...a vessel of dishonour. Not a good thing.
