Nick,

And it is good fruit to be faithful to Scripture.

Those who live by the Spirit do not sin.

[kerwin]

Nick,

“those that abide in the teaching have both the Father and the Son..”

2jn

Yes.

[NickHassan]

Hi KW,

Many think they live by the Spirit

But they do not ADD to scripture

[kerwin]

Nick,

The Jews that executed Jesus believed they were living according to Scripture even as they did so because there view was as yours is. They were were deceived because they went by the letter and did not listen to the Spirit.

Jesus told his people ” above all pursue his kingdom and righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well”. You do not seem to be doing that.

[NickHassan]

Hi KW,
Yes deception takes many forms.
You know my path?

[kerwin]

Nick,

I know fruit you show. That fruit shows a lack of understanding. You can get understanding if that is your choice but you have to choose to pursue it.

[NickHassan]

Hi KW,
You boast of your understanding?
Is that wise?

[kerwin]

Nick,

It is not foolish to speak of knowledge you have.

Proverbs 3:13Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

13 Happy is the man that findeth wisdom,
and the man that getteth understanding.

[NickHassan]

Hi KW,
You really own wisdom??

[kerwin]

Nick,

Proverbs 4:5Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

5 Get wisdom, get understanding:
forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.

I seek God’s righteousness and his kingdom as Jesus instructed me so of course I learn. I have not graduated yet.

[NickHassan]

Hi KW,
Yes you find it in the unadulterated Word.
Let it speak for itself without your filters

[kerwin]

Nick,

What version of Scripture do you believe is the unadulterated word of God?

I know t8 has said something to the effect he did not believe any of the English language ones are. From what I have seen I tend to agree with him. Some here claim the AV of the KJV is. I remember your opinion is the NIV is definitely adulterated.

[NickHassan]

Hi KW,
Does the Spirit not show you?
Would you put down stumbling blocks?

[kerwin]

Nick,

You did not answer my question. Why, are you afraid?

[kerwin]

Nick,

I already told you what the Spirit revealed to me. What I hear from it sounds similar to what I hear from t8.

[NickHassan]

Hi KW,
Was that before filtering it?

[kerwin]

Nick,

I realize you have knowledge but do comprehend it. The Spirit teaches you to comprehend what you had heard.

[NickHassan]

Hi KW,
And you boast of comprehension too?

[kerwin]

Nick,

You believe some very strange things if you fail to realize that comprehending what you hear is correctly utilize what you hear from Scripture. What do you believe if you cannot comprehend what you hear?
