Excellent sister! Give God the glory!

Give God the glory!

Amen! God uses those who make themselves available. When a preacher or teacher refuses to let anything cause him to change his prepared message, he should realize that it may be God who wants him to make a change.

Then either turn the hearing volume way down or take them completely out... My wife calls it "convenient hearing"... LOL

Yes, they do... but not all Catholics all of the time. I was Catholic and I remember walking out in a field behind my grandmother's house when I was 10 years old [1953] and sincerely talking to God for a long time one afternoon. I knew really effectively nothing of the Bible except the little...

Indeed, to understand this we need to read and understand the OT as well as the NT. The same God was in the OT as the One we have in the NT. When a person sees them as being different probably he simply needs to get to know God better. God who loves that person will provide all necessary help...

A bit more than 20 years ago my wife got after me to apply for a hearing disability from Veteran's Affairs. I did and I was approved for hearing aids. When I picked up my first hearing aids and put them in place upon arriving home I looked at my wife as we got out of the car and said with a look...

The one, the written, is used as a means to get really closer to the other, the reality of Jesus. Jesus is Alive and perhaps complete is the way to say it? We keep on eating His flesh [that Bible we read and study] and as it is quickened [brought to Life] within us we approach closer to Him...

Thank you!

As you will. I referred you to the other thread because that is the topic there. I won't discuss the Bride any more here and further derail this thread. Peace!

If a person does not drink it, he doesn't even have Life. He is simply dead!

Hmmm!

Rather than trying to express here all of the details and verses of scripture read through this other thread that addresses it more specifically: If all of the Church is the Bride of Christ who are the guests?

I won't go into your 6 listed points because the necessary details of my comments would probably derail my own thread. In any case I do not see convincing if connected to your conclusion... although apparently you do. You say there are no amputations in the Body of Christ but that is almost...

And thank you for posting here. I agree that Jesus is the head of the body and God's people are that Body. That does readily... for me anyway... bring about a definite conclusion that the Bride is equal to the Body rather than being a group brought out of the Body: "There are threescore queens...

Well I am glad to meet you David, but I have not addressed any posts directly you nor with regard to any of your posts on this thread. Therefore I have not clue as to what you are talking about. I do not know what it is that you are saying you are not wrong about...???

And most people have been wrong a lot of the time.

Sometimes for my own clarification on a doubtful point I will look deeper into the tense or translation, but usually not. Probably even when we do that kind of thing, there is guidance from the Holy Spirit involved if our hearts are right. It is like using a Bible commentary written by some man...

Thanks for the information. While I have small library I don't read many non-Bible sources but neither do I necessarily exclude the possibility of reading them. Another brother here [ @Willie T ] has sent me several and I am presently reading from one of them from time to time as I have the...

Thank you for you kindly gentle replies even when you disagree. While I don't believe in OSAS, I am not hard nosed against it as some seem to be. But, I don't want to get into that can of worms on this thread. What I really believe is complex but it is also simple.
