Actually one day when reality hits you will find a lot of it doesnt. And if it is an all it requires is one to quote scripture to be right, than we are all right. every religion on this earth is right because they are all based on the bible, and it si Gods word so it al lright. Ye really.

So that is why the question if you reject the testimonies of Christ and the Holy Spirit in Gods Word, just because you disagree with what it has as it does not change just because someone quotes it...

Hobie, perhaps you are missing the point because of your bias. The translations that we have available to us contain enough of God's truth for us to receive salvation, but the point that mjrhealth is making is that the Bible can be used to justify and believe we want by selectively quoting it in a way that justifies us and the point we want to make.

I think that the point that mjrhealth is trying to make to you is that it is the word of God changing us from the inside out, that is important by the writing of His statutes upon our heart so that we reflect God's hearth for the people in a way that also draws them to God.

This is called putting legs upon God's word so that others can see it in action.

Shalom

I worship on any and every day of the week. To confuse the two in order to sanctify the 1st day of the week and so eclipse the 7th day is sleight of hand and has the imprint of the evil one.

The word worship and the context that people use it in is what causes the 7th vs 1st day of the week issue. Most churches have made the mistake of assuming that a specified day of worship was prescribed in the newt testament despite the fact that evidence for such is lacking. The make a huge reach and site texts like 1 Cor 16:1-2 and Acts 20:7 decontextualizing them to in hopes of bolstering their preconception that the 1st day of the week has been set aside ad sanctified due to the supposed resurrection of the Messiah. They seek to devise a scripturally backed modus operande' for a corporate church assembly and they call it worship as opposed to employing the new testament description of worship found in a text like Romans 12:1-2.

We are reminded in Revelation 14:12 'Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus'.

According to the new testament writings, the Anointed One was to come for his saints in the generation that lived in the 1st century. Latter-day saints (and I'm not talking about Mormons) are foreign to the scriptures.

But does the crowd always see the same truth in what they see, in what they hear or in what they read. Your supportive argument is based on speculation that everybody is seeing what you are seeing. That is not true as the all the collaborative people in you argument will have their own perspective on the truth of the matter. In other words they will all have their own truth of understanding and their respective truths will all be different from one and other.

Well, that is why you personally have to read Gods Word, and not just listen to men or their traditions which leads many to reject Gods truth laid out plainly in His Word, which is what has happened.

That is why you have to allow the Holy Spirit to guide you expecially in unveiling the truth in Gods Word.

What you are writing is true. The problem is that that every individual has their own understanding of what the truth is and they carefully use the Bible to justify their point of view irrespective of what their individual belief may be.

This assessment is spot on. The difficulty is overcoming our natural tendency to prove ourselves right. We tend to start with a preconception and seek out echo-chambers to strengthen our resolve in what we already believe. If we ever master the art of dropping our preexisting biases and start allowing the facts to get in the way of our opinions, we will be positively dangerous!

That is why we must pray for the Holy Spirit as it is what guides us into Gods truth, not mans ideas, false doctrines and traditions.

John 16:12-14 King James Version (KJV)
12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

Hes already come and being, but who do you put first Him or the bible. If you put the bible first, than He is last and than there is nothing.
