Give God the glory my friend and trust in Him alone! I'll not argue with you further on this as you have your mind made up that no further growth toward God is possible. Even Jesus grew and through the words of the Baptist we know that we [the old man] must decrease while by He [the new man]...

Perhaps we are more likely to see a small physical group with most or even all person yielded to the Holy Spirit, but the Holy Spirit would not be restricted to physically connected group of people. People who cannot perceive one another with the physical five senses could and should still be...

Am I? God requires us to study but that is to be obedient as per that verse, but the following verse describes where one receives truth. "But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance...

I did not say it wrong to be one. I said it was not necessary. If a person with mediocre or even below average mental ability loves God and has faith and Him and in His Son, is he lost with understanding all of the details? If a believer in God and His Son knows more than the average person...

The knowing of the flock of which you speak should be via the Holy Spirit common to all members. This is the Life Blood of the Body of Christ. The Blood purges and/or cleanses that which is filthy or defiled, while the Blood also delivers the proper nourishment of the Word of God [eat his flesh...

Why must we be theologians to simply live for God by faith? Who is YHWH?

So you have defined precisely what is meant the scripture reads that God is no respecter of persons. Is this wise? I guess I am outside of your theological position. Sorry! "And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of...

In the sense that men have tried to tempt Him, yes; but in the sense that God could have sinned, no...! "Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God." Matt 4:7

Hypotheticals are what so often get men in trouble. If Adam and Eve had not disobeyed God, what would have happened? That was the first man Adam. The apostle Paul speaks of the two, the first and the last: "And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made...

Did I prove some case? What have I misused? I quoted some scripture and asked some questions which no one has really attempted to answer... Who has the correct answers? "I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that...

Who was tempted? Was God tempted? "Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:" James 1:13 Makes for a quandary when we try to resolve with logic alone. Jesus was tempted yet according to James, God cannot be...

@H. Richard Did not the Church begin when people began to come to Life? When was that? Jesus brought Life but when was the quickening Spirit poured out so that people could have a vision? "Where there is no vision, the people perish..." Prov 29:18 [without vision there was death rather than...

Perhaps it does to you, but ultimately it is not what you or I decide, but what God has already decided. Who can know what that is?

Yes, this is what scripture calls delusion!

You have simply restated your position without answering my question or explaining especially the meaning of Heb 4:15. Are we then to define Christ and to define God as we will rather than simply seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness? Can we really describe a box wherein God and/or...

@"ByGrace" Are you saying that he could not have? What is your take on this verse? "For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin." Heb 4:15 How can anyone be tempted to do something...

And lo and behold with our foolish ignorance leading us the miraculous healing glory of the brazen serpent of Numbers 21:8-9, which all of the written scriptures could and should be, becomes rather the Nehushtan of II Kings 18:4

"Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up. Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone? And...

And there is only One Head of the Body of Christ and it is NOT any one of those irregular globes of flesh and bone sitting on top of any of the bodies of flesh and bone which house us for the moment. With the Baptist, we need to lose our old head and have it replaced with the new One, which is...

"Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths." Prov 3:5-6
