To you it is a theory. To me it is Life. I am not God so going through it again would at the moment be pointless.

I don't disagree, but my point was rather my first question. People can be great Bible students and be hard or even impossible to get along with... With Apostle Paul before he met Jesus knew the scriptures, but he had a life changing experience. Everyone needs such an experience if they know the...

No substance for you? For me there is. Draw your conclusions as you will, Patient Mary. Jesus is still the Head and as such I leave it in His capable hands since for me there is now no one else. For these past 10 months I have been disconnected from any church group outside the Internet. Do...

What I was calling a game was more general than that. I was talking about the forum and presumed you were involved in the same thing. If you were not, I apologize.

Your questions should not I believe should be addressed to any person especially if we believe or doubt the person's statements that he does not sin or has attain to sinlessness. To do so would usually, if not always, effectively tempting the person to a pride with which he may already be...

@farouk You may enjoy your inked feet, but I do wish you would keep such pictures on your own computer or at least on the threads you have dedicated to that purpose. To me it is the appearance of evil, no matter what words are inked. Sorry to press this issue here, but if I or someone doesn't...

And how does one distinguish between the two? The Pharisees did have the scriptures available to them and knew them very well as they were written. Why did they not understand what they knew?

So then perhaps your next discussion will cover what it really means to be humble. Many apparently miss what it is and how important it is.

Yes, we are doing the work, or so it seems, but in a strong connection with God, He is filling in so many more of the gaps in our abilities and our knowledge. In a more tenuous connection with Him, we will find ourselves stumbling and falling more often. The connection must continue to be...

The Church, Mary, is the Body of Christ, which has as it Head, our Lord Jesus. All of the parts of the Body are to be subject to the Head. To be a perfectly fitted part subject always and completely to the Head is my goal. How does a person get there other than by continuous surrender? The toes...

If it is not a game to you I am really glad but the lines of communication between us remain blocked on certain issues.

@Marymog I very glad you really have an interest, but that really makes no difference in my answers. For learning of the things of God to occur His participation is required as only He gives any real increase. Neither you nor I can successfully teach or transfer His message to another person...

Sad Mary, the only One I am answerable to is the One who already knows all He needs to know. If you really need to know something more that I have left out ask of Him and I am certain He will answer you.

You have to ask him what he claims privately. But keeping on denying the possibility of any man today becoming sinless and wonder where that leaves you considering Jesus' words: "And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved? And Jesus looking upon them...

To you it is a game because you have no interest in learning, but only in somehow winning or putting down someone who does not agree with your own position. Proper interpretation requires the right interpreter. You say that the interpretation affect my salvation. But are you the right...

The only answer I want is the one that God provides and that suits Him. Don't read more into my words than are in them. You are guilty of that with me and with others... or so it seems to me. You attacking my testimony hurts me, but on a forum like this I expect it. I wish it were not so, but...

I cannot answer for him. But... you say you know the reality and therefore know the answer. Just consider the possibility that you err. All of us see still through a glass darkly until our vision has really been moved from seeing "men as trees, walking" to seeing "every man clearly". You also...

That post was purposely NOT addressed to you because often, it seems to me, you cannot see some things unless they are black and white for you to see with the two orbs of flesh below your forehead. There is another better vision, right? Nevertheless I will try to answer your question. Remember...

Jesus came to set us at liberty, to give us real freedom, to burn up the "ropes" that bind us. Jesus went to prepare a place for us in Him and for Him in us. "Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men...

Indeed and while with Paul we may see only through a glass darkly [dimly] the whole vision, the face to face is coming. How clear is our vision? How clear can it and will it be? Can people see our Light? "Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men...
