    God "spiritualizes" EVERYTHING.

    You verbalize the same misunderstanding and error that the Pharisees and leaders in Israel had about the Sabbath, which prompted Jesus to correct them, saying "The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath." In other words, they had it backwards...and so do many as yourself. When...

    God "spiritualizes" EVERYTHING.

    The "spiritual force" is the reality. The "everything" of the world, is not.

    God "spiritualizes" EVERYTHING.

    It's a war, and would-be "christians" are aiding the enemy. But, no, Paul did not teach "a resurrection in Spirit and a resurrection in the flesh." He taught that "what you sow, you do not sow that body that shall be." And, you have what you consider "literal" upside down and backwards. There...

    God "spiritualizes" EVERYTHING.

    No...nothing is up for grabs, God is in control, and it is He who has made manifest the spiritual things on high that many would like to call reality when He has clearly stated that it is an image and a likeness giving the world a dim view of His actual reality. So, no, "reading literally" is of...

    God "spiritualizes" EVERYTHING.

    It is not a word in the dictionary or in my vocabulary...so perhaps those who have taken it up as a weapon against the Spirit would like to give their definition. I just know that it is the defense of many who speak against the fact that the words of Christ (meaning the scriptures) "are...

    Why Christians Disagree

    You keep harping about your rules, about what you do and do not find to be sufficient. The problem is, the world does not operate by your rules. That's not how things work here...maybe in your little world, but not in the real world. We have told you what the rules are, and who's rules they are...

    God "spiritualizes" EVERYTHING.

    God is spirit. He is in the process of spiritualizing everything. Why then, is "spiritualizing" a bad thing for so many would-be christians? (Rhetorical) ...But hey, go for it. Try to rationalize for us why one would go against the very makeup of God. Let's hear it. God already knows who you...

    The Proof of Salvation

    Hahaha, yeah, right, that must be why you're always dis'ing the Spirit.

    Where is the New Jerusalem?

    Yet another volume of errors (in red).

    The Proof of Salvation

    Are Christ's words spiritual...or not? We are 19 pages in, and you have not only fought the very idea, you have denied it, and cannot come to agree with it, that is, you have not agreed with Him. Go figure. You have been speaking of and expressing your dedication to another christ for days.

    The Proof of Salvation

    "He who rejects Me rejects Him who sent Me.” You have made a god of confounded words on parchment. But Christ's words are not on parchment, nor confounded, but are spirit...and you will not hear them. Christ spoke against your kind, now you speak against Him.

    The Proof of Salvation

    "Spiritual discernment" is not esoteric mystical knowledge or nonsense. It is the fulfillment of "all truth" promised by Christ for our time. It is "true", biblical "worship." Those who speak against it, speak against Christ, by the spirit of anti-Christ.

    The Proof of Salvation

    Well...spiritual discerned is the proper term. But, Yes, that's the idea.

    Why Christians Disagree

    Ask. Seek. Knock. Only One will actually answer.

    The Proof of Salvation

    You don't know what you are saying. You are categorically dismissing the demonstrated fulfillment of the word of God by revelation if it is not understood. You may as well say, "Tongues" is biblical, but translations are not." Actually...that is exactly what you are saying. So, yes, you have...

    The Proof of Salvation

    Listen up. Yes, this is very much a "Satan get behind me" moment. Your line is very much like Satan's comments in the garden. You ask a question, then supply only part of what is written to challenge the whole truth, while demanding worldly proof. That is what the atheist do. So, yes, since a...

    The Proof of Salvation

    Good, close enough. I have not shown you a link between those two passages...because that is the Holy Spirit's job. He has shown me, but I cannot do the same for you. It is for Him to do, not me. My job is to testify to what God has assigned me. This I have done, and am doing. No, I have given...

    The Proof of Salvation

    Yes. That is what you are doing when you join scriptures that God has not joined, and separate scriptures that he has not separated. Granted, most begin as mysteries, requiring the Holy Spirit to unravel.

    The Proof of Salvation

    No...I explained, and still you have not acknowledged it. This is not a debate. No, again. Things did not change at the cross - they were fulfilled, which is different than changed. God/Jesus are the same yesterday, today, and forever. I am not going to say it again. You can read it again.

    The Proof of Salvation

    No, not extra-biblical, but entirely according to the scriptures: It is written that God chose individuals by name throughout all of scripture to deliver his word to all. It is also written that the Word had many more things to say during the times of the apostles, but they could not bear it...
