I am sorry but going through each one of these verses will not, I believe, help at this point. You don't hear what I am saying. Simply let us both, Give God the glory and continue as we, each of us, believes that he leads us.

Yes, the love for truth that is needed is all of it, even if we don't know or understand all that it is. We may know that it is Jesus, but when we are unable to really see him, "face to face" [and who can?] how accurate or complete is our knowledge? The key, I believe, is that we do not live by...

God always has a clear message, but as you say people find discrepancies or contradictions or differences when their understanding, as I see it, is missing or is incomplete, or even wrong. Just looking to find verses supporting or opposing a certain belief is always likely to get us into...

Blame it on the English if you will, but lest you have forgotten: "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, whatsoever I have said unto you" John 14:26 [KJV] "Mas el Consolador, el...

For you it may look like a hole, but not for me. To me it looks like a blindness on your part. I know that you see me as blind, but you have showed me nothing that changes my vision of God and the things of God. I am still climbing the mountain and Jesus has me by the hand. leading me upward...

I disagree with your conclusion, but what is in your heart is what matters, I believe, for you and God. I would guess that your situation, if true, might come as per these verses: "Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he...

I would not expect you to... so long as you agree, [inasmuch as you are able], with God. Praise His name. It sounds good. I hope that it is, good that is, ... even if I cannot agree or perhaps even understand it. I agree that it is offered. I suppose my disagreement would be in exactly what...

Ok. then the argument is finished then? No, the Bible when properly understood does not contradict itself, but many people probably see contradictions due to their own lack of understanding.

Perhaps not your context, but mine... Jesus did not exhibit charity? Hmmm?

How about if I were to say that I am simply being led by the Holy Spirit in what I write here, be it a verbatim citation of scripture or a paraphrase, according to what God has put into my heart? Are you too literal? Is God? Is the Catholic Church? Is anyone? What does it mean to be literal as...

Do you believe I am adding to God's Word? Perhaps you should ask yourself what someone's word is? Is it not what comes out of his mouth? Is it different with God? Has He confined it to the pages of a book, even the Bible, or did it become the man of flesh, Jesus? "And the Word was made flesh...

Yes, we read of the different beasts in scripture which really are men. Today among the many beasts that men manifest one of the worst may these donkeys of which you speak. Perhaps for some it would better to actually be a carnal beast of flesh, a beast of burden, walking on four legs than to...

Indeed, each of us must stand on what we believe even though it most certainly will NOT agree with every other believer in Christ. If we are sincere and we need to be changed, God will change us. Praise His name!

Argue your case with someone else. On this point I see why people believe that way but my own position is seen by me in not one verse or one chapter but the whole of the scriptures. Only God gives the increase!

For every scriptural explanation by one there is another explanation by another. I have my own testimony, which would fill the bill, but the poster asked for scripture. To me that one fills the bill, but of course... this is also one of those with another interpretation.

Oh, my step-father did not hover over, but grew up in the Azores. He learned to speak English in the US Army in WWII, but he never lost that strong Portuguese accent. :)

"Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was baptized he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which were done." Acts 8:13 He believed and was baptized. Some call that being saved, but then later we read... "Saying, Give me also this power, that on...

Do you suppose that any answer received from men is going definitely resolve the question you have asked? We do live for God by faith, do we not?

@Jane_Doe22 @Taken What is the purpose of the lake of fire? What does the scripture say happens to liars? "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with...

What we do see is our vision. Our vision according to the words written by Paul is as "through a glass darkly", which means it certainly can be clearer than it is. Give God the glory!
