Hi Nick,Yes, this is true. However this reassurance does nothing in the way of giving anyone a determining factor on who has the Spirit and who does not. I don't believe we can know at this present time. It's always so frustrating when other's try and point finger's at other's.Love,Mandy

All men…………all mankind.?

I think it's a pretty generalized statement and encompasses ALL MEN. Otherwise it would have mentioned Jews, Gentiles or other's.

Again, these terms are all too vague. Their definitions vary from person-to-person and from belief system-to-belief system.Everyone thinks they know, for instance, what a false prophecy is! But do they really? One's false prophecy is another man's revelation. Surely you see my point?Mandy

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Aug. 18 2008,11:32)Hi not3, In which context is this found?Romans 11:32 (New International Version)New International Version (NIV)Copyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society 32For God has bound all men over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all.

I agree with you regarding the extra teachings of the JW's, however my point was that they fit the critieria you were giving. I guess it's not that easy, is it?What does God not tolerate? Because some here beleive that if you do not see things their way you are not a part of the family of God? Thanks,Mandy

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Aug. 18 2008,07:22)Hi GB, He does not say He will save all but you do?But hasn't God bound us ALL over to sin so that he can have mercy on us ALL? This is what scripture teaches us, is it not?Mandy

The problem is, Nick, some folks go beyond what the word says is not tolerated to include their personal additions of peculiar doctrines. What of that?Thanks,Mandy

I agree, Nick.What do you think the plan of God is that we have limited information?And the information that we have is somewhat tainted?I wonder what we will be held accountable for and what will be tossed out, per se? At any rate, I look forward to that Day when we will see him as he is. We will know him. Ah…just that thought thrills me…[Read more]

Hey Stuart – good morning to you.Quote There are no guarantees. All you can do is estimate your chance of success at a new venture based on your experience so far. And then, after that? what do you do after that? You hope and PRAY you got it right! Especially if it is a life and death venture.Quote I remember asking, I think in the Nature of…[Read more]

Charity,Forgive me, but if that last post from you is for me…..I'm not quite sure I understand it well enough to respond. I'm sorry, sis.Love you,Mandy

I certainly don't respect the belief system of Wicca, for instance. For what does light have to do with the dark? We walk in the light and that is where we have fellowship with one another. If we have fellowship with one another (those who believe) then we will have a level of tolerance for various beliefs within the Christian umbrella. For no…[Read more]
