Some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty

Wow, your 4 replies to my posts this morning are not going to go well if you make errors in the first half sentence!

Read Revelation 2 and 3, Jesus had somewhat against 5 out of 7 of those "right on" early churches.

Yeah, I may not even respond to the rest of your posts.

THe church has always had errors. but your accusation without defining it is beyond the pale. the church has never been perfect but always blessed by god. How come you do not have a higher spiritual meaning for the letters to the seven churches?

I am repeating myself to say so (again).

But no...that is totally wrong, and you simply don't understand. But perhaps the Lord will open your eyes this time. Are you capable of change?

Ask for yourself, reason for yourself: What "manner" raised Jesus up into heaven, physical, or spiritual?

And if you get that one correct: Since "everyone born of the spirit" is like "the wind" and unseen--what did those who saw Jesus ascend see, the physical Jesus or the unseen born of the spirit Jesus?

Wow have you taken the Word of God and made it the Word of ScottA!!! Your lack of simple understanding of Gods Word is remarkable.

Jesus was physically taken into heaven in teh bvody that was resurrected and He sp[ent over 40 days in before He was physically removed from the planet.

Your misunderstaniding of JOhn 3 is glowing!

The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

This verse is showing that just we cannot tell where the wind will come and go, so it is with those who are born again. We do not know where or when it will happen. Maybe you should take a refresher course on basic grammar.

You claim to know the scriptures, but cannot understand even a man.

As for "the first trust"--apparently your question has an agenda behind it. What is it--what do you really want to say?

I know the Scriptures, but I asked so as to not misinterpret you. what did you eman so I do not misquote you.

My agenda is to make sure I understood what you said. That is all.

I answered you according to your own measure. That's not all there is to it, but that is all you spoke against.

But no, what I have said is only beyond your own comfort, but aligns with scripture. The church is in big trouble. You can deny it--but hey--hold your breath, and before you need air many more marks against her will be revealed.
