If anyone posts anything contrary to Scripture, point it out.

(with Scriptural reference if available or known)

Truth: Few people find the narrow road to life.

Question: Why does God say most people follow /stay on / the wide road to destruction ?

It never works...everyone has their own definition of truth and the interpretation of scripture...

Plus, who has the last word on who's is right and who is wrong..? You ? :D

Think about what God's Word says about this.

Who does God say knows the truth, appraiseth all things, and is appraised by no one ?

re "It never works" is not truth. It has worked in the past (not on a forum, not on the internet, no) in assemblies that believe and follow Jesus.

Just like in Acts, Ephesians, Philippians, etc, as described clearly, there are instructions for what to do whenever someone violates the truth, is out of order even a little bit, or is unaware of the truth in Jesus.
The instructions in Scripture are Revealed by God for His Purpose, and when Jesus is obeyed, followed, and believed, there is such peace and joy and righteousness overflowing continually that few people ever experience - never seen on the forums like this one.

And surprisingly few places in person.

Yes, hard and painful....

Who deceives people into believing or following those teachers who preach otherwise ? (according to Scripture)

now how could it be hard if we dont have to do anything and its GOds Grace that saves us ????
Jesus says it takes every bit of our wit and strength , every nerve (in some translation, to emphasis all in all),

as in "worship God with the WHOLE HEART " (nothing in the heart impure, unholy, unrighteous, willingly permitted to remain)...
and with all our strength and with all of our minds and with all of our might...etc ....

Hello

As Helen said in her post: -

Let me ask for the truth; who has the lead in the following two parables, Luke 19:11-27 and Matthew 25:14-30? Is it Jesus?

It will come down to knowing the truth and having the right understanding.

Shalom

2Th 2:10  And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 


which they must receive of God who is the first to Love the Truth.

I agree....many churches have heretical teachings. Who decides what is heretical?

Hello Mary

...but "The church" is not here on this thread! :)
The 'church' she worships and serves should not be on this thread.
The truth is that the RCC is a deceptive fraud, pretending to be a Christian church. There is no "sugar coating" the truth, however unacceptable that might be to some.

If anyone posts anything contrary to Scripture, point it out.

It never works...everyone has their own definition of truth and the interpretation of scripture...
It will work IF people stay away who serve the false church. All we can do is point it out though.
This is CONTRARY TO ALL SCRIPTURE >>>>>
