981 | Am I ignorant | 1 Cor 12:1 | srbaegon | 212122 | ||
Hello, You are correct that the issue is a spiritual one, but emotions have nothing to do with the matter. Truth is truth regardless of how we feel. I also did not equate homosexual with transsexual activity. They are not the same though they are both sinful practice. You asked if the list of sins are any more heinous. All sin is heinous and carry the penalty of death as you have pointed out. Your last set of verses from Isaiah and Paul are directed to the those who live by faith in obedience to the Word of God. They are not given to the general populace, which you seem to infer by your use of them. Steve |

Hello Van, These are indeed charlatans as they do their "greatest works" in countries other than their own. If these people are legitimate, let them go to the U.S. hospitals and leprosariums and heal the people there. Heal the people you live among as the Lord Jesus did freely. Steve |

984 | 'Lone rangers' and spiritual discernment | 1 Cor 12:12 | srbaegon | 122078 | ||
Hello ourfather'sheart, This statement caught my attention: "Blessings on you for understanding that there are those who are called to be as you say 'lone rangers' who are in no way in rebellion to the Lord or the church." Perhaps yout can demonstrate via scripture how one is called to be a lone ranger in this New Testament age. I cannot find it in my Bible. Steve |

985 | 'Lone rangers' and spiritual discernment | 1 Cor 12:12 | srbaegon | 122139 | ||
Hello ourfather'sheart, Your response helps me to understand my suspicion was correct. You are zealous for ministering to the poor and hungry. But you seem to have a disregard for the body of Christ because you would rather minister to others than minister to the church. You should be doing both. You speak of being "unorthodox" and "coloring outside the lines." I will state my request again in a different way. Perhaps you can demonstrate via scripture how one is called to be "unorthodox" or "outside the lines" in this New Testament age. I cannot find it in my Bible. Steve |

986 | Definition of a bible bully | 1 Cor 13:4 | srbaegon | 35868 | ||
Eagle After reading what you wrote to Benjamite, perhaps I reacted too quickly. I've come to find that when someone asks a specific person about something derogatory like "Bible Bully", I automatically think it's a set-up for some serious bashing. Steve |

Hello survivor, Nothing is pretedermined? Acts 2:22-23 (NASB) Men of Israel, listen to these words: Jesus the Nazarene, a man attested to you by God with miracles and wonders and signs which God performed through Him in your midst, just as you yourselves know-- [23] this Man, delivered over by the predetermined plan and foreknowledge of God, you nailed to a cross by the hands of godless men and put Him to death.

Hello survivor, I'm missing something from your post. Did you state the reason or the "why?" Steve |

989 | Spiritual Gifts | 1 Cor 13:8 | srbaegon | 140291 | ||
Hello jcsav, Regardless of who the audience of Romans 10:9-10, the truth of it remains--believe and confess with the result of salvation. You cannot prove Acts 2:38 means Spirit baptism. The Jews listening would have had no difficulty understanding that Peter was speaking about an outward sign of water baptism demonstrating their repentance. Steve |

990 | Spiritual Gifts | 1 Cor 13:8 | srbaegon | 140354 | ||
Hello jcsav, Of course there's a difference between a regenerated heart and one that is not. What's your point? I read Acts 11. Peter says that the Holy Spirit came upon them as in the beginning. Nothing more. There is no connection to the words "repent and be baptized." Steve |

Hello jcsav, It is quite unfair to give up. So I will ask: What is the connection? Steve |

Hello JRdoc Could you elaborate on this differentiation of two type of tongues? I've not heard this before. Steve |

993 | Women speak in church? | 1 Cor 14:34 | srbaegon | 58595 | ||
Hello Melanie Saying that Paul contradicted himself will definitely get you in trouble. So, I'll ask nicely that you reconsider your thoughts. Peter considered Paul's words to be Scripture (2 Pet 3:15-16). I do, too. If Paul contradicted himself, then Scripture (at least Paul's epistles) is not trustworthy. There has to be a better explanation for Paul's remarks concerning women. As for your comments in the last couple of paragraphs--excellent points! Steve |

Hello Melanie You: "he is ever quick to pull out his authority as an Apostle." He was quick to call on his authority when it was required. Paul was not dealing with an outpouring of the Spirit, but a very fleshly group of Christians. He needed to call on his authority to get things in line. You: "The authority he quotes though is Temple Law. He says Tongues are for the unbelievers. (1Cor 14:20-22). A surprise for Peter and the other 120 with him (Acts 1:15)--men and women, on the day of Pentacost to learn. Acts 2:4 says 'All of them'....Who was the unbeliever locked up in that house among them?" You misunderstand 1 Cor 14. Paul is saying that tongues is for the benefit of unbelievers, not that unbelievers would receive this gift. We can see that in Acts 2 where it got the attention of the Jews so that Peter could preach to them. You: "Paul saw himself as THE apostle though." He saw himself as AN apostle. And Peter needed a severe rebuke for his conduct. You: "He even says that if the Spirit gives any spiritual gifts to anyone that person should be ignored unless they acknowledge that what Paul says is the Lord's command. (1Cor 14:37)" Paul is writing under the inspiration and authority of the Holy Spirit. He was correct, and it would not conflict with a spiritual gift given to another. I will ask again that you please give up this rant against the apostle Paul. It's obvious you dislike him, but what he writes is of the Holy Spirit--all of it whether we like it or not. Steve |

995 | Hi JesusFreak | 1 Cor 14:34 | srbaegon | 58660 | ||
Hello Melanie My only objection is that you have placed what Paul wrote by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit to be less than what Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John recorded (again by the Holy Spirit) of the Lord's words and deeds. Steve |
||||||
996 | Hi JesusFreak | 1 Cor 14:34 | srbaegon | 58713 | ||
Hello Melanie You had said: "You seem to find it necessary for my salvation that I should give Paul equal authority with Jesus and with the paths the Holy Spirit is forcing me personally to walk." This sentence, your statements that Paul contradicted himself, and your view that he kept reverting to Pharisaism led me to believe you did not regard Paul's writings as inspired. I got that conclusion because those who don't believe in the inspiration and inerrancy of the Bible use the same arguments. Steve |

997 | Hi JesusFreak | 1 Cor 14:34 | srbaegon | 58719 | ||
Hello Melanie Keep striving until you get to the source "the smell." I have already read your correspondence with Tim. I respect his "take" on Scripture. And I think he's quite gentle in his manner. Steve |

Hello Souljourners, So because men sinned by having concubines, then it is permissible for you to sin? In effect, that is what you are saying. Steve |

Hello Souljourners, The Bible has authority over the pastor. If he says something is OK to do, but Scripture says it's wrong, then it's wrong. Steve |

Hello souljourner, You said men were permitted to have concubines, but they no longer have concubines. It doesn't take much effort to see that was actually sin. Now you attempt to justify your case by basing on the fact that men call this sin (the concubine) something different today. I did not misunderstand your argument. I was pointing out the absurdity of it. And now you say that "nowhere in the bible did God command for women to be silent in the church." Haven't you read this? 1 Cor 14:37 (ESV) If anyone thinks that he is a prophet, or spiritual, he should acknowledge that the things I am writing to you are a command of the Lord. Steve |
