But, without "eyes to see" people do blindly follow blind leader and we know the result. Those with "eyes to see" must use those eyes and walk as they are directed: "O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps." Jerem 10:23

Some people are able to do good job of providing a definition even as per scripture, but if it is not in the heart, will God even see it?

People who have received the Lord disagree on things because they too often have a mixed message... as you have said, incomplete. It contains truth, but due to periodically or regularly quenching instead of always following the Spirit, some of their own conclusions are included. Thus as we see...

Indeed this is what David did and what Solomon explained: "When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek." Psalm 27:8 "Where there is no vision, the people perish... " Prov 28:18 Apostle Paul clarified as to where we are and where we should be going...

The Holy Ghost in a person is the quickening Spirit that brings to Life the good things of God within us. A person reading the Bible with the wrong attitude or spirit receives no Life from it. The example of this is the sincere atheist who reads a Bible only to enable him to trip up ignorant...

Yes, all that we have and all that we are capable of is what He expects even though those alone will not get us to the end of our course with Him. "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your...

Or perhaps Poo Bear in the honey pot?

So then be it as you will. Give me the blame and give God the glory!

Why did you go back and respond to my earlier post again? I responded you and even apologized to you in post #27. Did you not even read that post?

No? Well I guess I connect the dots one way and you another. Help us Lord.

Perhaps none of us teaches error on purpose, but if any of us are in error on what we believe in any measure and we teach also that measure is that not teaching error? Who but Jesus never took a misstep in his teaching?

Was it? "For I have told him that I will judge his house for ever for the iniquity which he knoweth; because his sons made themselves vile, and he restrained them not. And therefore I have sworn unto the house of Eli, that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be purged with sacrifice nor...

Perhaps we could learn a lot and understand nothing at all: "And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh." Ecc 12:12 Without being led by the Holy Ghost will we not fall blindly into a ditch? "But the...

Perhaps the saddest thing is that these people are probably among the most faithful. Most people who carry the label of Christian may even get on the Internet regularly but would never even think about visiting a Christian forum such as this. They are I would guess too busy with whatever they...

Jesus also prayed for people where it was not appreciated so don't be so sensitive. Remember he brought Lazarus back the dead and the enemies of Jesus wanted to kill Lazarus as well. Leave no trace of the good, I guess. Also after sending the legion out of the possessed man into a herd of...

Even so! Getting the foundation exactly as it should be could be a difficult thing for people who have built a whole lot on top of it already. But... nothing is impossible for God.

People, that is people who called themselves Christian, still want to and do use man's definitions for biblical terms or phrases. Sometimes that may work, but sometimes or even always God has a different more accurate definition. One of those terms is "perfectionism". Jesus says to be perfect...

"I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service." Rom 12:1 The minimum is found perhaps in the impossibility of even "reasonable service": "And Jesus looking upon them saith...

Agreed, but nonetheless He is "fire". He is unto His children as the fiery furnace was unto the three Hebrews who were thrown in... He only consumes that which is not good. My point was it is not to be a choice between a fire eternally and a Life eternally. We should have both eternally.

Should it be one or the other rather than both since our God is a "consuming fire"?
