lol what a cop out

I'm getting a headache..

So did the Lord tell you that Ed, or is it something you managed to concoct from the Scriptures?

I don't know Ed, no matter what I say it's not going to make any difference. I feel like I'm banging my head against a brick wall.

I can see I'm banging my head against a brick wall. You can probably see it too lol.

read them Ed, you asked for Scriptures, I gave you Scriptures.

Answer the question Ed, do you have a testimony of being born again?

Why do you think the Word of God is called the Word of God? The Scriptures alude to the Word of God going forth from the mouth of God and the Holy Spirit of God going forth from His nostrils (breath). I hope that's not too difficult for you.

You don't know those Scriptures? Ok, I will humour you. Joh 14:26 But the Comforter, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in My name, He shall teach you all things and bring all things to your remembrance, whatever I have said to you. Act 2:1 And in the fulfilling of the day of Pentecost, they were all with one accord in one place. Act…[Read more]

Hi Ed, that wasn't really the question. If I remember correctly the conversation was about how one obtains the faith that comes by hearing.

Thanks guys, I'm getting such warm fuzzies lol.How do I know if people are born again or not? It's a simple method really. I ask them. If they can say that on this day I repented and the Lord came into my life and changed me, then I can accept that they are most likely born again and I rejoice with them. If on the other hand they look at me…[Read more]

When Jesus was born Mary could say “I have given birth to a Son” and the Father could say “This day I have begotten a Son” The child isn't begotten of the father until born of the mother.

Pentecost was the coming of the Holy Spirit to the believers in the upper room. Jesus had returned to the Father and the Father had sent the Holy Spirit. The second coming of our Lord cannot happen until all prophecies preceeding His return have been fulfilled.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the Word was God. He was born of Mary, begotten of the Father and was called Jesus.

David, are you born again?
