Actually, the context was Paul speaking on Mars Hill.THAT IS THE CONTEXT.
yeah and i would also say that anyone teaching the teachings of JESUS and of the apostelsOf course!
Much love!
but what must WE do to work the works of GOD .He is not spiteful at all............He is simply just. Which is a righteous thing. And that is why He went even further in righteousness so as to provide a way that man could escape His justice. The second mile. And it is the ONLY way.
What a narrow road it is indeed dear sister . and anyone whose faith be NOT ON Jesus the ChristLOL. Only sometimes. Other times it's 4 divided by 2 = 2.
Now why can't you be honest and acknowledge what someone else already pointed out to you, concerning Cornelius:
Act 11:9
But the voice answered me again from heaven, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.
Without the preaching of the gospel, without the washing of the water of the word…… without the blood of JESUS and faith in it/Him…….how could Cornelius have been cleansed? How can anyone? It was for that reason Peter was sent to Cornelius. This isn't rocket science, it's not hard to see this. 1 + 1 = 2.
Act 11:13-14
And he shewed us how he had seen an angel in his house, which stood and said unto him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter;
Who shall tell thee words, WHEREBY thou and all thy house shall b
God has hidden things ....as it is written in the bible. He hides the truth from the shallow speculators and selfish investigators.
If you think this passage cancels another that's your issue. No need to project that onto others. Except you do seem to have that need, so then what is to be said? Other then that the Scriptures all work together, we don't need to overlook any of them, nor do we need to deny what they teach.That's not in context....that is a novice mistake of thinking one verse cancels all other verses that says something different. You have taken one verse out of context and destroyed righteousness that God accepts. Amazing.

You really need to turn your views back onto yourself. Most here can't see when a person is FULLY deceived....because they are too!so then what is to be said? Other then that the Scriptures all work together, we don't need to overlook any of them, nor do we need to deny what they teach.
I suggest you believe all of it, and not just some of it. God's Word, that is.
Fear on the outer man. Fearlessness on the inner man. We are really 2 people until we are either fully weaned of the flesh, able to carry our cross...or better yet, crucified with Christ. From there we will no longer be duplicitous, double minded, compromised, and unstable.Another enigma:
Heb 4:16
Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
and
1 Pe 1:17
And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:
Boldness or fear? Seems duplicitous to the rational mind. Perhaps the Spirt has a secret in walking in both at the same time? Or, how about this?
This same guy who said this:
1 Jn 4:18
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
Did this when he saw the risen resurrected Lord coming from the Holy of Holies:
Rv 1:17
And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead...
Perfect love casting out fear:
And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
I think we all need to take heed to this warning and hunger for more understanding:

It should be obvious to anyone with a little bit of perception that you truly do need healing. You can stop wasting your time with trying to dig in a knife, I've been long dead to it already. I just don't care, Epi. Nice try if someone wants to win a battle in the flesh I suppose, except that it is SIN. I have prayed and truly do hope you will receive the healing that you need.LOL. He is simply...simple. You confuse a lack of intelligence as being righteous. Of course. Because you have no critical thinking...therefore anyone who has forsaken critical thinking and looks down on intelligence must have done so to follow a god who they think wants us to be simple and unintelligent.
But you are under-thinking this...with a limited intelligence.
People charge modern believers with hypocrisy and being not intelligent. And you think that is being a good witness.
So hypocrisy is to see things upside down. People see the church as unrighteous...which is correct. What they don't see is how unholy the church has become. Judgment day awaits on that score.
Actually I forgot the Lord already showed me something about that verse. Which I already shared in a post, and I think you ignored it. I will try to find it again if I have time. Starts out with "filthy" referring to all unbelievers........according to the BIBLE, if we let it interpret itself.Actually God is waiting on you. When will you allow a very basic honesty to overthrow what the devil has instilled in you?
When will anyone see the degree to which the devil deceives the WHOLE world...and especially the church.
Thought you would agree brother, just wanted to mention it as a reminder. ;)Of course!
Much love!

Nobody should think of themselves more highly than they ought, we should all just view ourselves with sober judgment.....and of course humility.
God doesnt' care how intelligent anyone is..........that has no bearing on the kingdom of heaven any more than the colour of anyone's eyes......we do not "live" by intelligence but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
In your case your cleverness gets in the way of a true humility. Agreed. Maybe you should try becoming weak and a fool in order that you may be wise.He gives us the light to see by and guides our lives. It is even a case of His strength is made perfect in our weakness. Intelligence is the thing that is often in His way in my observation. Maybe you should try becoming weak so that you can become strong, and become a fool so that you can become wise.
This is false. The filthy are those who soil holiness. The wicked are those who love unrighteousness. And both of these categorizes include MANY believers in our time.Actually I forgot the Lord already showed me something about that verse. Which I already shared in a post, and I think you ignored it.
