God's mercy is limited when we limit Him. If we do not limit Him then there is no limit. Those children of Jacob in Numbers 10 reached the limit of God's mercy because they limited Him: "Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of Israel." Psalm 78:41 God has never...

Oh those others are also I'm sure are being misrepresented by people who know as little or even less about them than some know about Catholicism. Perhaps because we seldom hear their names called out, we do not recognize that it happening. Perhaps none of them have such outspoken advocates such...

"And the LORD said, I have pardoned according to thy word: But as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the LORD. Because all those men which have seen my glory, and my miracles, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now these ten times, and...

Technically we were still lying. This is why the scripture says, I believe, that every man is a liar. Undoubtedly there are shades of intentional, but God knows all about those better than we do. That is why we cannot be the final judges on such things, at least we cannot until or if we get a...

Well anyway, Happy New Year!

If you really believe your tongue is is not out of control then I would suggest your reevaluate your usage to avoid future misunderstandings. If it were me alone, I would simply apologize to you and leave it at that. I do apologize for any misunderstanding on my part, but that leaves probably...

@bbyrd009 If we believe something and act like we believe it is true and speak like we like believe it is true, but it turns out to really be a lie, then were we not lying? How many are still lying due to ignorance. In the scripture ignorance is in the long run no excuse. In the OT we can...

Amen!

Your spirit rather than the Holy Spirit is in most of your posted words. That much is evident to others even if you are either unable to see it or unwilling to consider it. You say you don't care if someone disagrees, but it is obvious [again to most people who read your posts on this forum] by...

Strange that you would use the cop example here. The question is in these matters, Who is the cop? Really I do not usually purposely lie to people, but it does happen. All of holding wrong beliefs are likely to lie unknowingly until and if they correct the wrong beliefs. But... then again what...

Your tongue is very out of control, my friend. You are the one who brought the cop into the conversation. "For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind: But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full...

Of course I was not talking about the Catholic Church, but about you my friend. You are quick to jump, but I did not speak of your church, only you with a reference to your possible negative affect on it. Consider it that way if you are able.

Look also at what the Psalms say with regard to wings and feathers. I selected only a few, but there are many more throughout scripture: "Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings," Psalm 17:8 "And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the wings...

What if the first is when Jesus returns in you or in me or in any of us? Is that not a resurrection, the first one for us? What does it mean to be born again if not to be resurrected from the dead? Are we not to be the Body of Christ? So is that not when He returns?

You and me and all of the other guys held captive to sin and our sinful ways. The prison of death within ourselves which held us securely until we met the Master and took hold of the Life which he brought. Why the original 12 disciples [apostles] follow after them when he called them? Perhaps...

@bark of peter Welcome to the forum.

"... And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers? Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free...

@Miss Hepburn People's problem with this is they too often do not know what it means to keep one's eyes on Jesus or what it means when we do not. There are lots of scripture that talk about it but the verses that first come to my mind relate to Peter: "And when the disciples saw him walking on...

A number of years ago, I spent many hours plotting out timeline charts of those listed as the first born in the genealogies on an Excel program. It took me hours and now it for the most part just sits there [in my computer of course]. [I also have copies of similar timelines from people who did...

Should we be following the example of even the best of cops rather than that of Jesus? "And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots: And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of...
