Dear justme, Don't you realize the arguments you are using were the same used by the majority of so-called believers long ago? When Jesus arrived on the scene the establishment refused to believe that He was the Son of God, why, because of their faulty human interpretation of the scriptures. Copernicus and Galileo promoted the theory of a round earth but the establishment refused to believe it so, why, because they erroneously believed that the scriptures made the earth to be the center of the universe. What other reason do you have to explain the fact that we as professed Christians fail to experience the signs of believers and the gifts of the spirit? Is it not possible that we see things through faulty human wisdom? flyman |

Dear Val, It appears that R.C. Stedman makes an assumption that says it all, "Well, it means, of course, that we have misunderstood this passage(Mark 16:16-18) if we read it that way. It does not square with what God actually does…." Quite the contrary, it does square with what God does. He says those who BELIEVE will be able to perform these miraculous signs. Until we BELIEVE the entire teachings of Jesus, God will not bestow any of the promised signs. He does not because we BELIEVE not. R. C. Stedman makes another assumption, "But the amazing fact is that for twenty centuries millions of people have been converted and have believed the gospel, and none of these signs have appeared." How is Stedman qualified to make such a statement when God is the only judge who know the true hearts of professed believers? It only appears that millions have been converted and believed, but it is only for God to know who the true believers are. Could it be that our perceptions as professed believers are in error? Could it be that we are making the wrong assumptions? Remember God's word, many are called but few are chosen. Wide is the road to destruction and narrow is the way to eternal life. It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter heaven. How many of us can truly say we believe Luke 14:33, "So likewise, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has cannot be my disciple?" Merry Christmas to you, Val flyman |

Dear Azure, As a child I was misdirected and now as an adult I find myself unable to experience the gifts promised to us. I fear what I believed was not the proper truth as I am now discovering the actual words of God through His son, Jesus Christ. Who are we to change them to suit our habits? flyman |
