Even when our interpretation really is from God and from Him alone [no mixed message], there will always be some who consider it a subjective or even a self centered view point rather than what it is. All we, or anyone, can do is whatever we can to always be led by the Holy Spirit. That will not...

Not objectively, but rather surrendered to God and led by His Spirit. The mind of man cannot find God by being objective any more than it can find Him by being subjective.

Jesus did not chase after those with false beliefs or practices... He only opened his mouth to correct or rebuke them because they pressed him not to teach him better but hoping to trip him up. More than that is not needed because everyone who really has not found Life is already dead. Why beat...

That which God has written in my heart!

Or everyone places themselves where they are as a result of their response or lack thereof to Him!

Or only one could right; or both could be wrong. Naturally, each of us believes we are right; or if we are at all sincere, we would change, or at least try to change. You believe the Bible is correct and so do most of us here. Some here would throw out part of the Bible. You presume there is no...

My faith comes from the Word of God. You, like many speak of scripture and the Word of God as being one. Was the dead body of Jesus the Word of God when it was dead on the cross prior to His Resurrection? I hear Jesus and not everyone else who says that He is when I recognize His voice. Only...

Perhaps I did not, but the evidence is in me rather than as something we can measure as men measure things or that we can read about or find in study along as men do. The evidence is what God put in my heart. You cannot see it or understand it unless God has opened your eyes to what is in me. It...

Yes, by their fruit, but who is able to tell the good fruit from the evil fruit? "Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!" Isaiah 5:20 Give God the glory!

I was not witness to those miracles with my physical eyes. I read about them in scripture. Where is my faith? Where did it come from? Read the scriptures as led by the Holy Spirit and surely you will understand my answer. My witness, what I have witnessed, is described in my personal...

I think I did answer you in another post, but consider that if people live by faith, are they all also theologians with all of the detailed answers that you or others may request of require? A person does have the answer that God has, if he really has the "goods" but it is not always time to...

So you are saying that what men have named the "scientific method" is the best or only way to find God's perfect will? So then why not throw out the written scriptures and forget about the lead of the Holy Spirit and use science alone to discover God's Truth? That is what I see you supporting...

To initiate our walk with God a miracle may be used, but what is a miracle to God? Jesus also made this clear to me in these verses: "For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk? But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive...

Growth is the important thing... that is growth toward and in God. I had no "bad" experiences as a young Catholic. On the contrary, those were as a man of flesh some of my best times. The spiritual lack I was never able to clearly see then because I did not know what I was missing.

I am not disagreeing with you, but could you explain in light of what you have said and quoted what these verses mean? "There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, one faith, one baptism," Eph 4:4-6

You ask some deep questions. I may know the answers but expressing them in words is quite another thing. I follow Jesus for the same reason that Peter chose to follow him as expressed in John 6:68. There is no place really to go. There is no one else to follow. Everything else and every other...

Yes, I know. You dislike or even reject the charismatic or Pentecostal types. You either had some bad experiences with them or simply never really got in touch with God while with them. While I have seen problems in every church group as a member or as a visitor I always try to look at...

Well then my definitions are different than yours. Sorry! I have visited some of the ones you would probably consider main line, but never as a member. Several years ago I was continuously visiting other assemblies besides my own but the ones you consider main line were the ones that for me were...

I was a follower of God and Jesus as a young Catholic believer before I knew anything else. My first recalled experience with God was at the age of 6 years [ 1949] when I was baptized in water at the Old Catholic Mission Church in San Juan Bautista, CA. God was there with me and I knew it. From...
