    Proof: You were only forgiven of your past sins!

    Yes, He gave some but who are the ones given? Which ones work together supposedly to reach heaven but come to nothing better than more confusion? "And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from...

    Because people do very frequently have mixed messages, part from the Holy Spirit and the other part from following their own ways [the ways of men]. This is where the Samaritans were and those of Judah condemned them. Jesus did not.

    So you would say rather than follow Moses [Jesus] we should follow the children of Israel [the other church leaders or theologians] who died in the wilderness [in the ways of their flesh... Nehushtan] Truth does not come through reason although reason may at times be an effective tool.

    But I have not in spite of what you think. My Bible is my best and my most frequently opened book on a daily basis. I cannot go through a day without getting into it. This has been so for a great many years. God is my closest friend 24/7...

    This is still your trouble, Dave. You still speak of "they" as if that finalizes it one way or the other. You seem to forget the lesson of the children of Israel as they left Egypt and moved toward the Promised Land. Most of that "they" simply did not make it and they had wise, humble leader to...

    I do know of such verses but I won't show any here because some might see me pointing my finger. I really don't want to do that when it won't edify anyone. Help us dear Lord!

    Even so. In spite of the many complaints heard here and elsewhere with regard to Catholicism, I for one learned good things from priests and nuns who were good to me. I have not been there with them for many years for my reasons and, I believe, God's, but I will always cherish the good memories...

    Your favorite Psalm?

    I usually don't like to designate one verse or chapter over another as being 'my favorite' because what works best one time is not always the same as what works best another time. Nevertheless, certainly I have over the years favored verse five of the following psalm as it has many times...

    Your favorite Psalm?

    She is doing better. Thank you.

    Proof: You were only forgiven of your past sins!

    You have decided that what you have is the truth, but I do not believe you have all of the truth and some parts of what you seem to have to me seem to be wrong. You are unwilling to really discuss certain points. This is your choice but calling what I have and what I live by a 'blatant rejection...

    But I am not condemning you. If you are not believing and working as God requires, you are condemned already by the only One whose judgment ultimately matters. If I or any of these others on this thread and forum are not believing and working as God requires we are condemned already. No need for...

    Pray for Cheryl

    @Truth Today you are filled with sorrow, but the end for you is not yet. May God keep you in Him during the difficulty of this. We are praying for you.

    Always will she be there with you in your heart. Give God the glory for the time with her He has given you. I am continuing today and always to keep you I prayers as there will be a great emptiness while you continue here....

    I will grant you that there are and must be ministers including teachers provided by God as per Eph 4:11 for our edification, but you should not presume that those ministers are always the smartest, best educated theologians. You should not presume that the ones men place on top were placed on...

    Proof: You were only forgiven of your past sins!

    As I understand it the most important thing is not even the interpretation, but the heart. People start with very little knowledge of scripture but a very great love toward God. This is what God wants, but He wants us also to grow in all things good... This is where this verse comes into play...

    Proof: You were only forgiven of your past sins!

    And so this is what you believe by faith. What I believe by faith as you know is somewhat different. Do you doubt that I walk with God because my belief is different? Who is it that walks with God by complete knowledge rather than by faith? Who should others imitate in their walk with God, you...

    Why is it incomplete without the trinity? Do you know why Jesus was incomplete when He was born to Mary?

    Proof: You were only forgiven of your past sins!

    I do hear what you are saying and I agree that many people work to do it right. They usually fail because they try to do it themselves instead of leaning on the Master and following Him. Apparently you do strive in the right direction but that does not mean that at this moment everything you do...

    Proof: You were only forgiven of your past sins!

    Unfortunately our friend @Dave L along with so many others reads the scripture often in search of support for what he already believe in some areas instead of what God may have for them NOW in any area. I've done the same thing too many times to miss this. God showed me this problem in me long...
