Thanks Bod, I actually like posting down here.Now as for Muslims belief in Jesus, I hear what you are saying. But, WHO is your Teacher Bod? Who do you see (With your Spiritual Eyes) leading you? Who do you hear with your Spiritual Ears? Is it Jesus?

Hi Bod.Firstly, the Comforter is the Holy Spirit not a person of flesh and blood. John 14:25: “All this I have spoken while still with you.  But the Comforter, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.”Can we agree on that, Bod?

Quote (t8 @ Feb. 12 2012,20:18)What must we do to be saved?Our old self must die, we must be born of the Spirit, we must change our thinking and our hearts, and we have to listen to our Teacher who is Jesus, and we must pray, and we must obey, and…  we love God with all of our heart, and love our Neighbour as ourself.

It is hard because example I made my last post about 'Testing the Spirits' as a follow up to my earlier post where I apologised – and how I FELT it was not good what I posted, so I was regarding testing Spirits in ourself. But there had been two more posts after the one I was following on form – It can get quite confusing.I have seen this done…[Read more]

Test the spirits, whether they are of God.

All, I apologise about my post to Mike first page (I had a feeling not to post it, so I'm learning a lot from things like this).

Mike, I was joking sort of.Sometimes it helps to just focus on the words of Scripture, and one thing leads into another.Jesus said: “The words that I have spoken unto you are spirit, and are life”.

The righteous flourish like the palm tree,and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

Mike, what does that have to do with the conversation??Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak.

The flesh profits nothing.

Gene yes, it was our hearts that were to be circumcised.

Hi Bod, I hear what you are saying about the Quran speaking of Jesus in a positive way.  (And compared to the Tulmad that is true).  But to state that the Comforter or Spirit was Mohammad (Is that what Muslims believe?  I think I remember reading that somewhere – and it seems to be what you are stating)…Jesus said (John 14):“I will pray the Fa…[Read more]

Nick, I hear you and understand you. And you're right God's ways are not our ways. If we try to figure it out then we cant. So Jesus is here with us in Spirit as our Lord and Teacher, and that's why Jesus said he would not leave us and also why he said – where two or three are gathered together in my name there am I among them. I believe this…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 11 2012,11:46)Hi, He sits at the right hand of the Father yet his Spirit is with two or three gathered together in his name.Hi Nick. Do you believe the Spirit is the Spirit of Jesus? Do you mean the Spirit of Truth, The Comforter which was sent?

Quote (bodhitharta @ Feb. 08 2012,07:54)the Quran made the Bible come alive and become much more vivid I believed in the Bible even more but upon believing more you can also see things from a free moving dynamic perspective,Bod, so, the Quran's description of hell became much more alive to you?  There is a huge difference in the Bible and the…[Read more]

Gene, that's a lot of money to lose.  From what I learnt there are 12 main offshoots from the WCG, and hundreds of Splinter Groups, including Bethel Church and the Assembly of God's (AOG).  But hey – were off topic. Perhaps someone could start up a new thread on it?I apologise for taking this of Topic.

One more thing and then I'm done.Quote:“The most important teaching in Armstrong's belief system is that Herbert W. Armstrong was the prophesied end-time Elijah. As the end-time Elijah, Armstrong was preparing the way for Christ's return by announcing Christ's imminent return.””Next in importance was Herbert's teachings on government. God's…[Read more]

Mike, have you ever heard of Armstrongism? I almost became one years ago – I loved their words and it was all so clear and made perfect sense, as in the way that they wrote. I had all of their booklets and watched their videos and I prayed and told God I would be one of their members.  But eventually I found out: – They are rascist. they believe…[Read more]

Mike, you've spent years here discussing Procreation and Human Reproduction and trying to make God out to be a Man. (Something which I called Blasphemous). I do find it Blasphemous because God is not a Man.  Do you REALLY see God as having a Body like Man?   Do you really think God procreates? Do you really think like begets like? (What was it y…[Read more]
