Well you have to do what God leads you to do. I recognize the distinction you make between the official doctrine and the individual. Normally I steer away from the official doctrine as I have never really studied it that much. As a Catholic I only knew what I heard and now the little I remember...

@Mayflower You are very blessed. Stay close to God and He will see you everything. "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." Rom 8:28 Give God the glory!

Our friend is not really a muslim, but he very different than most of the followers of Christ you have ever met. Don't insist on believing all of that he believes but do pay close attention to what he is saying for sometimes, I believe, God really gives him some very good Word. You, of course...

Thank you for this. I have made copies of all the input I have received on this. There is much more involved that I have not said about my personal situation offline. I will not presently openly speak of it all here. In any case I am studying and praying for the Lord's guidance with regard to...

Middle of the road, is it? No as that is the way of the lukewarm who are spit out. I go rather to do the hot works on the Lord's side. It is really not a popular way among carnal men bearing the Christian label, but it is the way we all should choose. I guess that you will still disagree with me...

Don't be afraid of it if it really is from God. As long as you are really serving Him you don't need a more definitive answer, but some people here and elsewhere will attack you because you do it. The prayer language if you have it is between you and God. Talk to Him about it rather those who...

Ideally no one should, but in fact that is not the way that it is. Some are either not sheep or they ignoring what they are hearing. I strive just to keep myself in the sheep fold. I help others when and if I as can as God allows or requires.

Listening to any Bible teacher or preacher online or offline can be dangerous. Our solution to this problem should be here: "To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth...

Thank you for this. Prior to responding to this post of yours to try to be fair I went back and listened to quite a bit of three different videos. The man seemed to be knowledgeable about scripture and apparently about music and he brings science also into it all. I heard some good things, but I...

And it comes from this verse: "And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing." I Cor 13:2

Thank you kindly for looking into this and responding. Having served as a moderator on another forum I understand too well the difficulties. I know that you cannot please all of the people all of the time. Know in any case that your efforts are appreciated.

Perhaps you are talking about me as well. For that I would be sorry as I have in the past read some of your posts and agreed with them. If it were not for you so often and avidly joining the attack against Catholics here, I would likely still be checking your words closely instead of skipping...

@TheHolyBookEnds My complaint about lengthy videos without at least some accompanying explanation of content would still apply. You have explained now and I do appreciate that. Your tone also shows some of that bit of charity I mentioned. Nevertheless, I know we do not agree on many things...

In a sense you are correct, but who knows everything God is saying to everyone through the Bible? Then again consider this: "And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books...

Thank you Rita. Unfortunately I am in another place. It is rare that I watch videos on forums especially when I see that they are so very long. If I knew or suspected that they were worth the trouble, however I might make the time. One thing that makes the difference for me as to whether or not...

Where is it that Jesus came from? And where is it that he came to? "And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven." John 3:13 Hmmm? Where is heaven? When Jesus "came down" was that not down to man's level? Where is man in his...

I don't want to judge even such as Hitler appears to have been although my flesh may tell me that he deserves punishment. What does my flesh know of the things of God? I never met Hitler, but I have heard and read much of Nazi Germany and what occurred there with him as the leader. Like all of...

Herein is a problem with communication. I was explaining how I see things work with people that I have known or which have been revealed to me by God as I talk with Him or read the scriptures. This is not how I am or how I serve God. This is frequently what people do when discussing their...

@APAK Thank you for your kind response. I cannot add anything that will convict or convince anyone of anything good or better. Only God can do that. Sometimes He may give me the words. I know what I believe and I know what I am living only as God reveals them to me. Sometimes it is not so clear...

No, they are not playing automatically. I went into a couple of them to see what they were about, but without spending a lot of time I could not tell whether they were even related to the OP. Them being in the thread slows down my computer. The same thing happens on any thread where there are...
