Is this intended as a possible resource? Not likely something I would be look for although who knows when something is available what I would do. I used to love old book stores and second hand stores with book sections, but they are not like they were. Most of the books now available are...

I believe you misunderstand our friend @bbyrd009 and his meaning. I think that he believes as I do that no translation/version of WRITTEN scripture is equal to the Word of God. Until those written words are quickened [brought to Life] in a person they are NOT the Word of God even though they are...

And what is it a man sees with his natural/carnal eyes, the eyes of the flesh? If those are the only eyes he has or uses, is he not blind willing to follow a blind leader into a ditch?

I am not sure it is finished yet. Of course I am talking about God's part in the discussion.

"Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." Matt 5:6

I have at times seen it as a plus or minus thing similar perhaps to a temperature gauge but more directly related to what the scripture and we call sin. All of babies start at zero from natural birth. As they develop their survival mechanisms at some point become lust of the eyes, lust of the...

So was the raising of Lazarus, but he still had to be buried again, did he not? Are we missing the whole picture? Let us wait and hear what our friend @ScottA would add here to fill in the blanks.

You slap on some mortar and I'll place the bricks. We'll be done before we know it. If the Mexicans help the work will progress twice as fast.

Is that really what are to look to? Every man of flesh was born to his natural mother as a spiritually dead person. We have all been dead. We walked around as if we were alive and usually acted as if we were alive. That is not Life. Life is what Jesus brought because men did not have it. Men...

Before men can really find the right solution, I would guess they would have to know what the problem is. That is man's world. The solution that God provides is to all problems, but even Christians try to work it out for themselves instead of going always to Him.

You did not really answer my question which was: "What does it mean to be born again?" What you did was provide the steps you have learned on who to become born again. That does not answer my question. I will go through it briefly as I understand it: Adam and Eve were in the garden of Eden...

Well for harmony's the maybe the Mexicans will come over to U.S. side to build while the Americans go over to the Mexican side to build. Is this what you mean by working both ways?:D

What does it mean to be born again? Please relate your answer to what Adam and Eve lost and how Jesus had opened the way to it again. If you don't know and/or don't want to answer, would you please stop bothering us here?

Just keep on giving the glory to God! Only He gives any real increase!

You should not be so literal. Some say that Protestants are deep into sola scriptura and then you come up with this. I have always, at least since long before belonging to this forum, NOT supported a sola scriptura stand.

You should not be looking for black and white laws. In the OT following Moses they had them. Perhaps in the Catholic Church they have them, but with us... at least some of us... they are what God writes in our hearts or speaks to us. If He did not write it on your heart of speak to you, you...

This "respect" of which you speak relates directly, I believe, to what charity/love of I Corinthians chapter 13 really is... We are be charitable to those with whom we disagree...

I had no intention at pointing directly at you. I don't know and have honestly read very few of your posts on this forum. In my post I simply try to show my own position on things. Of course, I stand for what I believe, but likely so does everyone else on the forum. I have met good people most...

Why are you adding to or changing what I said? The limitation is and always has been the frailty of men. We all are frail in the eyes of God even if we won't admit it. This why it is necessary to go down or lower ourselves so that He may lift us up. Our pride may be what stops us from humbling...

Perhaps an important thing for all of us to understand is that God does not only fit into any of our little or our big boxes. Even when we do know Him how limited is our knowledge? The limitation of our knowledge is not dependent on Him, but on us. We are the only real limitation according to...
