G,
You advised TT not to rely on scripture.
You did not have to tell us you do not rely on scripture as what you say reveals that problem.January 4, 2010 at 8:43 pm#168605GeneBalthropParticipantNIck………They do reflect Scripture but you simply don't understand the mean of the word WORD or you would have no problem with what i have posted. As far as the understanding I have been give you have no idea of it, So your opinions is just that an opinion, which should mean nothing to none if us. Post proof not you self opinions with nothing to back it up, but just you mouth flapping in the wind. If you want to address something i have said then do it not just sit there a accuse me and others of thing, is that all you are good for here?

Nick……….NO Where did i tell thinker he could not rely on scriptures, I said he should not (ONLY) rely on them , he need GOD SPIRIT to guide HIM in understanding them was MY POINT> BUT you continue to twist and distort my words only show where your Spirit is From. I think most can see that, by now, i know i certainly can.January 4, 2010 at 9:01 pm#168610NickHassanParticipantG,
Scripture gives us understanding.
Submit to it.
Rely on it.January 4, 2010 at 9:09 pm#168612GeneBalthropParticipantNick……….WRONG GOD the FATHER gives us understanding and Without HIS SPIRIT guiding US , Scriptures can only be PARROTED by people. With all your getting get (understanding). SEEK, ASK, KNOCK and maybe GOD will GIVE it to YOU. Falsely accusing brethren is a sin. IMO
January 4, 2010 at 9:20 pm#168614NickHassanParticipantG,
So what do you make of the advice of Jesus [jn6], Peter [2Peter1]and Paul[Tim] re scripture?
I guess you would have to say you have greater understanding?
Yet they were of the Spirit.What of your spirit[intellect?]?

being of the spirit means having the same attitude like them about the work to be done to fulfill Gods will ,and the interest of others in that regard.if this attitude is in our hearths then and only then we have the spirit of Christ and by the same means Have the spirit of God ,because Christ had the fulfillment of Gods will in is hearth alleyway to his dead,this spirit should also able us to do just that.
January 4, 2010 at 10:52 pm#168633GeneBalthropParticipantt………tell me is that the Spirit of an accuser, that some display here. I don't mind anyone disagreeing with me on any topic , but when it gets Personal like Nick does that is different. And i am (NOT) the ONLY ONE who has said that before many have. I tell him over and over to Post where i say something that is not scriptural. He fails to do it and when he does it is a part of a post to try to support his accusations. Now you tell me what Spirit that is FROM. Look i vehemently disagree with WJ and Thinker all the time concerning the TRINITY DOCTRINE, But you know what I still respect their right to Have their own opinion and I believe WJ is a sincerer Person and so is thinker about their religion. But i just disagree with them that does (NOT) mean i Hate them or will i follow them around like i am on a hunting exposition of some kind. Nick and some cross over the line and maybe i to have at times but I hope not. Lets stick to the Posts and not get so personal. Present our case and debate it if need be, Iron sharpens Iron and we might all grow some. IMO

i do not know anyone unless it is trough his quotes and post,i try not to fall in the gap of personal conflicts it amount to anything Christian should do,so leave it alone ,ignore it is the best action,it prevent to create a culture in you.just think we are before our Father he is looking ,and it is not for us to push or to convince of anything
everyone of us is responsible for is own way of live,Gods word has been with us for 2000years we are born with it and died with it the difference is do we use it and learn from ?January 5, 2010 at 3:19 am#168683princess of the kingParticipantQuote God exists and he is both in and out of Scripture. Joh 20:30 Many indeed, therefore, other signs also did Christ before his disciples, that are not written in this book
yohannan was not around when the books were being cannonized, so he was not referring to the 'cannonized catholic bible' was he now, or to some that would be caterogized as an one's own idea.
January 6, 2010 at 1:30 am#168829GeneBalthropParticipantTo All………When i was a young man, and had very little real Knowledge of scriptures, But i truly believed in the living GOD,I had so many miracles Happen in my life, if i were to tell you them, you would find it hard to even believe , but there were many witness to them. The FATHER was not looking at my Knowledge of Scriptures, but on MY FAITH in HIM. ” Tell me this does He who Works Mircales among you do it by works of the law or by hearing your FAITH”. It is all about Faith brother and sisters. Not about how much Knowledge we have. Nevertheless we should be growing in both knowledge and GRACE. The FATHER hears the Prayers of Faith. Knowledge Alone, will not deliver us only the FATHER WILL> IMO

this is very true, but knowledge tell us who he is and how to worship him.
many recieved miracles in Jesus time and not understanding the meaning of them,only later after his dead then things were open .January 6, 2010 at 7:41 am#168871NickHassanParticipantG,
So what of the gnostic knowledge you offer as an alternative to scripture?
What possible validity can your own ideas have?Rely on scripture.
Many will say LORD, LORD we did miracles in your name.
“I do not know you. “
January 6, 2010 at 2:15 pm#168902GeneBalthropParticipantNick………There you go twisting what is said again. Jesus said Mat 24:5 …> For many shall come in (MY) name Saying I am Christ and shall deceive many. (Another) words preaching Christ they will deceive people.
Mat 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in (THY NAME) and in (THY NAME) have cast out devils? and in (THY NAME) done many wonderful works. 23..> and this will i profess unto them, I never Knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Do you see the problem here (they were doing it in Jesus' name < Not in the name of GOD the FATHER, they were focusing on Jesus only, and replacing the FATHER with HIM. This is the way of Trinitarians. They have made Jesus their GOD. Jesus never did anything in HIS Name it was in the FATHERS Name He did everything he did. All the Miracles performed by Jesus and the apostles were done by GOD the FATHER HIMSELF. I would not go TO Jesus and say in you name i did any miracles, no i recieved them from GOD the FATHER himself , that was exactly who i was praying to when they were done.
Nick where do you see any Miracles done there. Again you twist scriptures to meet you own GNOSTIC teachings, As i said before you are far more a GNOSTIC then I am. It is YOU WHO BELIEVE IN THE PREEXISTENCE OF JESUS, and by the way, ONLY GOD the FATHER CAN DO MIRACLES, NO OTHER CAN. miracles are a confirmation of GOD The FATHERS presents in our lives. He confirmed the words of Jesus and the apostles by the Miracles that followed them. IMO

i tink if you believe in the Son you also believe in the father ,if you believe in the father you also accept the Son,but the trinity added the Holy spirit to them and declare that they all three are one and God,this is the twist.January 6, 2010 at 6:45 pm#168915NickHassanParticipantG,
No those in the body of Christ worked effectively in the name of their master Jesus, knowing that he was one with his God just as they were.
But works done in the name of Jesus is no proof of salvation.January 6, 2010 at 9:01 pm#168928NickHassanParticipantQuote (Gene @ Jan. 06 2010,12:30) To All………When i was a young man, and had very little real Knowledge of scriptures, But i truly believed in the living GOD,I had so many miracles Happen in my life, if i were to tell you them, you would find it hard to even believe , but there were many witness to them.

G,
So God often allows His powers to be shown to encourage us in our early walk.It is not proof of anything but encouragement to seek more of His ways and they are found in His Word.
To stop walking then and sit in the armchair convinced that all is well by these reflections is not what He wants but rather more commitment to searching His truths.
The light is with us for a time but the night comes and preparation for that night is what that light is given for.

The more God blesses with evidence the more He expects of us in faithfulness.
We must abide in scripture.[2Jn9]January 6, 2010 at 9:57 pm#168933NickHassanParticipantG,
Jesus said
'why do you call me LORD, LORD and not do what I say?”
It is not those who call him Lord that he knows but those who do the will of God[Mt7.21]The will of God is to believe in the Son and the teachings God gave him and not to dissect away bits and add others.
January 6, 2010 at 10:42 pm#168940NickHassanParticipantG,
Those who have been given more will have more expected from them.
Teachers too are tested to a higher level.
Abide in scripture. - AuthorPosts
