You deceive yourself. The signs given are here, they are signs of something, and that something is not good, but is promised by God - from God, whom is spirit. You are not doing the math. Can't help you there.

If they are no signs of something, they are not signs. If they are signs of something, they are something. So...are you saying that no signs have been given, no "blood", no "fire", no "darkness?" Because if you are, you have contradicted the promise of God, via Joel, Jesus, Peter, and now me.

Okay, but I am now quoting for the third time (above in red). And I say again...your comeback has been that the prophecy of Joel is only of the Holy Spirit. But here it is clearly not only holy, but also of blood, fire, and darkness. You can't just ignore it or argue that it does not exist. I...

I did point you to where you can read it...I quoted it from Acts 2. Which I am happy to quote again here, in red: As for your question of clarification...we must be careful. This is already a subject of great offense and emotion, and our language (all language) has the power to do great harm or...

God is spirit. "Spiritualizing" is therefore godly. You are against it. Fine. Thanks for the personal testimony. Now, move to the left.

Another offended soul. If the darkness offends you, read the whole thread...and the whole Word. Is Satan and all that is evil a god, or a son? Your response, says he is a god. You are wrong. He is not. He is a son.

No, again...you are lumping together both the good and the evil. I am not, but I am explaining that the timing was the same, because that is the word from Joel the prophet. So the account confirmed by Peter at Pentecost is only half of the spiritual truth - not because I say so, but because God...

Bring it on. No, I did not say "the Holy Spirit." I said the prophecy of Joel that "God would pour out His spirit upon all flesh", confirmed by Peter at Pentecost. You have assumed that I meant the Holy Spirit...which is not far from the truth, if you can receive it. But for the sake of...

Your question names the Holy Spirit...but in my explanations, I did not name Him. That is because, and we should know, that there are both Holy and unholy spirits at work. But to think that there is another source for either, other than God...is not biblical: All power and creation in heaven and...

Where do the jackals and the poisonous things of the earth get their power? Yeah, what of murders and thieves, even Satan, if not from the Lord? Are there any who have power that is not given to them from God? Has God not made the light and also the darkness? Does He not work all things...

Now you add judgment to name calling. Good for you. But if Calvin stated the scriptures as I have (I wouldn't know), then “Do not forbid him, for he who is not against us is on our side.”

Name calling again. How can someone follow one he does not know? (Rhetorical) He can't. But you are a name caller when you have no other leg to stand on.

You can say that there is another who has the power as God has power...but it is not biblical, not the truth from God. But you are under the wrong impression. I am not saying that God has made men evil, I am saying that He has manifest evil men in the world...just as He has manifest good...

Your beef is apparently with God. I just quoted a very plain scripture which you have failed to explain or acknowledge. I have been clear. Why do you continue to ask me to repeat? (Rhetorical) It is because you do not want to believe it from me or from God. What you are saying here is not...

How backwards can you be...you have the tail wagging the dog (God). No, the world can do nothing. That is the teachings of men. There is no such "freewill" in scripture. Freewill in the scriptures, is thanks to God, an offering of thanksgiving. Period.

I wouldn't know about Calvinism. But just as God is "I am", we too "are" what we are...and life in the world is just a manifestation of it. What was written before time, is now told through the pages of history. His story. Then comes the end.

Perhaps I said it too plainly. Here is God saying He does both: "But the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and a distressing spirit from the LORD troubled him." I Samuel 16:14

Not all of that is wrong, but it is not a good representation of the truth from God, and more the teachings of men. "Free will" is not an ability given by God to do our own will, but rather His ability to manifest the very thing(s) that are already in a person. But since you cannot imagine...

I am convinced that all would like to think they have power and have been the cause of great things, that what we imagine could be craft or magic, is mostly divine dumb luck. "Jesus answered, "You could have no power at all against Me unless it had been given you from above."
