1 | searching for the truth | 1 Cor 11:3 | JCrichton | 125630 | ||
Hi, Tim Moran! Correct! In essence, those people have become blinded to the truth. They follow without learning and they accept the fallacies of their teachers as truth. It is because they rely on their own finite wisdom that they commit themselves to erroneous teachings. Many are not really seeking God as much as they are seeking to "belong.!" The warning Jesus gave about being amonst wolves in sheep clothing was not meant only for His generation! God Bless! Angel |

2 | searching for the truth | 1 Cor 11:3 | Morant61 | 125638 | ||
Greetings Angel! I believe that many times the problem is not so much a reliance on their own wisdom as simply an outright rejection of the truth. There are times when honest people can disagree, but most false teachings are an outright rejection of clear truth. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Hi, Tim Moran! Those who are aware of the Truth and outright reject Him, yes. But, as creatures of habit, humans are followers and many follow without ever questioning... When a person/group offers an opinion it is easy to reject it... yet, when that person/group has established an indoctrination system where inductees are basically brain-washed, it is difficult for the inductees to have an original thought--specially one that contradicts the inductor's agenda. I have come accross people from "Christian" congregations who have stated that only their pastor can instruct them on Bible matters and they have even refused to open the Bible and share Scripture! They have been instructed to invite others to their congregation and to share Scripture as per the cult's... err... I meant, as per the established agenda. Then there are those who take a three-year-trek into Denial where they are trained to be blind to any Scripture that tells us that Jesus is God--even when God Himself calls Jesus God. This is so contorted that they can quote Jesus as saying that "...the Father is greater than I..." and accept and believe that statement as truth; while, simultaneously, rejecting Christ's statments when He says "...the Father lives/abides in me..." or "I and the Father are one." I do not believe that these poor souls are truly aware of their fallacy... somewhere along their history they were thirsty for the Truth and the wrong instructors got hold of them! We have to pray for these people... without our help "Christian" will be only an empty label for them since they are not even conscious that to be a Christian means to believe in Christ Jesus and to serve Him as our Lord and Master! They carry that label with the same intent that morges use their toe-tag: to identify the corpses! God Bless! Angel |
