"This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24 "I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work." John 9:4 When and where do we find or see that darkness called night?

Just follow God, who is Not the author of confusion. You don't need every answer right now. When you need an answer and you are leaning heavily on the Lord and asking for His direction, you will be OK! "For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace..." I Cor 14:33 "Ask, and it shall be...

I do disagree with you final sentence as it certainly is not clear to me. I have been reading my three Bibles [English, German & Spanish] daily along with talking to God for many years. Yes, God has shown me many new things during this time, but not much on this subject. I rarely get into in...

You are certainly welcomed by many my friend. There are some here who do not welcome a person who believes the things of God differently. They would rather that we [that is me and you and others as well] not be here at all. If they get too out of line, @Angelina or one of the other moderators...

Relax my friend! Some people have little patience when someone is having trouble with the English language. Some of these concepts are hard to understand for anyone even in their own native language. You are doing well. When you get too frustrated, just say something from your heart not to them...

And Paul also had some serious problems before he knew who Jesus was. Both of them, Peter and Paul, went through a conversion process. Both of them grew closer to God through Jesus by the Holy Ghost. In both cases we are able to read their testimonies in the scriptures. Ultimately God has only...

@My Dreams Joining in prayer here on this that all of those involved would learn to trust in God above all things!

That unbelievers would engage in such things, we should expect. However, when so many holding up the Christian label jump into them with both feet, it seems to me that an evil picture is being painted for others to see. Jesus, the man, was willing to walk forward all alone. If necessary should...

Many parts of the One Body of Christ with Jesus as the Head, indeed! Things like this make me continue to wonder why people so often insist on a trinity when verses like this raise a question mark... or should we only go with the majority of believers? I have faith in God and always have from...

I guess you really did not want to discuss anything. I presume this tirade was in response to my two questions, which you did not really even try to answer:

Give God the glory! Some people believe they are in the best place [their particular denomination] and if we had always the mind of God, we might be able to judge that. Even the best ones described in the Bible did not always have the mind of God. Even if a person really knows himself as God...

Were things better before anyone spoke or wrote or tried to live only Sola Scriptura? Were there any good reasons for a reformation to occur?

You should stand on what you believe. That is between you and God. Someone might disagree with where you stand, but that someone when it comes down to it is not your judge! Discussion is one thing. Condemnation is quite another.

The state and God have parted company. Early in the 1980's I was transferred to a Social Security field office in central California. While I had been working for the agency for nearly 10 years, I had only been interviewing people face to face for a few weeks when I picked up an interview slip...

Given that then what does this mean? "Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. And...

Some people love their own doctrines or church essentials or statements of faith more than they love truth, God's Truth. They may say they have it, but if they really do, then they would not be afraid to hear other doctrines seemingly opposed to their own. It reminds me of the Pharisees who...

@Lavender Purple Welcome to the forum!

How many know that they should be stepping out onto the water now? "Besides, look at all the 'good' things down there beneath the waves!" Or the pathway they're walking now is not lukewarm because I have already been saved and nothing evil can touch me. What fun is it to walk with God 24/7 on...

Thank you for the apology! Don't depend too much on your signature. Early on I blocked everyone's signature because some were so long they distracted from the actual post and often confused the issue. So I have not read your signature. As for me defending heresy... to you it may seem so, but...

We're OK and yes, when it comes right down to it, we are pretty close together on this point. Sometimes the problem is simply one of communication!
