1 | Do we read the same Bible? | Mark 4:13 | Love Fountain | 39494 | ||
I have always understood and accepted a particular doctrine. Then I come in contact with many who believe things that I believe to be contrary to Scripture and the doctrines that I have accepted. Now I find myself getting very upset, to the point of being offended at the belief and interpretation of others regarding the Scripture. Am I found in the parable of the sower in the following, Mark 4:16-17 16 And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness; 17 And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended. KJV What do you think? What would you suggest I do? Bless you, Love Fountain |

2 | Do we read the same Bible? | Mark 4:13 | EdB | 39496 | ||
Love Fountain I'm not sure what your referring to but let me say. There is more bad doctrine in the church today then there is correct. Why? People refuse to read the Bible for themsleves or they read the parts they like. People have gotten the idea that doctrine and creed are of man and to be ignored, dispised and discounted. There are foundational beliefs that each and every night TV evangelist deny and corrupt and thousands support them. I heard a man last night promise every promise in the world if you will just sow into his ground. He had testimonials about how this or that happened to people that gave to him. Show me one place where God says give to the the TV evangelist and I will bless you. God said bring your tithes into My storehouse. I saw another tell funny stories and bless Jesus but never read a scripture. God said His word, not the fun man's word, would not return void. We have got to get back to the basics. People have got to start reading the Bible and stop listening to every wind of doctrine. People ahve got to stop asking what is in it for me and rather ask how may I serve you my Lord. People have got to stop being focused on the the physical, it is the spiritual that lives for eternity. People have got to quit searching for the temporal and start seeking the eternal. EdB |

3 | Do we read the same Bible? | Mark 4:13 | Love Fountain | 39501 | ||
Dear EdB, Yes! Thank you! You state,"People have got to start reading the Bible and stop listening to every wind of doctrine." A friend of mine brought up a very good point recently. He said,"people read every book cover to cover, beginning to end, chapter by chapter, every book except one.........the Bible." Is it not true, that the only book in the World that will help people, they choose not to read and if they do read they don't read it all the way through. Everyone's answers are awaiting them in the letter written to them from their Father. Remember how many time Jesus said,"haven't you read?" Bless you, Love Fountain Prov 8:32-35 32 Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways. 33 Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not. 34 Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors. 35 For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD.
