1 | THE MOST POWERFUL VERSE IN EVANGELISM | John 12:32 | tj57h@cs.com | 103947 | ||
Praise his name, Exault him, sing praises unto him. He is already lifted up and all men are drawn unto him; however, If someone does not proclame it those who are lost will not hear it, believe and become born again. We participate in his exaltation by proclaming the good news, the Gospel. It is settled im my mind and heart, save the further writings and take the time to tell someone about him. That is what we are to do. Which is more important, spending hours proving someone is wrong in their understanding and you are right or telling someone that Jesus is alive and has paid the price for their sins. Praise God if I am wrong in my understanding, because Jesus Christ is preached and that he has risen. I am just proclaming that he is lifted up. He is drawing all men unto himself. Love, Tim |

Col 2: 6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: Hear, believe in your heart, and you are saved and righteous, continue hearing believing and obeying by the Spirit. As we walk in the Spirit led by the Spirit, we will do good works as Jamse has said. We do not force good works, we walk in the as we are led into them by the Spirit. Love, Tim |

My comments have been Bible based. I am sorry if this personally offends you. I have a problem with labeling Graceful and pigeon holing her. I have read nothing she has said that has not been biblical. I resist anyone trying to do the same to me, it is wrong. Gentlemen if we do not get past our division and on to Christ how will we live up to the challenge we have been called to? We are to be one and as of today 7/13/03 I will be lifting Christ up and will make every attempt to try to leave denominationalism behind, I ask EdB if you would please do the same! I will continue to express the word of God and hope to be less offensive to you. I would appreciate everyone letting Graceful express Christ and the light she has according to the word. I agree, lets try to get along, Love, In Christ, Tim H. P. S. The money thing, further proof that I am not slanted to a particular creed, only the Word as I know it. |

Continued: You began as believers by, assuming you are born again: Romans 10: 3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. 5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them. 6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) 7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) 8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Col 2: 6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: Hear, believe in your heart, and you are saved and righteous, continue hearing believing and obeying by the Spirit. I am unimpressed with human or intellectual understanding of the word of God and you are talking to one who earns their living by being intellectual and I count it dung as Paul did. 1 Cor. 1: 17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. 18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; 24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. 25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: 27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; 28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: 29 That no flesh should glory in his presence. I will admit their are those who: require a sign, some miracle, and seek after wisdom, and I am sorry for those I offend, but many on this forum are seeking wisdom an I have been there! It is only when we come to the point of Total submission, and say I wan to believe what YOU want me to believe we can come to were he wants us. Most will not lay their doctrines aside and do this and I believe one of the reasons is because many in leadership, if they were to receive greater enlightenment would have to sever their financial income to move on with God. Which leads me to the revelation that Paul preaches, that he did not receive financial income from anyone he was preaching too because he did not want the Gospel tainted by what he called filthy lucre. And I believe we have this in the Church today. Yes, an Oxen is worthy of its hire and a Pastor can receive the fruits of his labor by receiving income from preaching, but the higher calling is to preach without financial support from those directly hearing you preach. He did receive income to take to another assembly to bless them as a courier, and he did receive support to go to another assembly to preach the truth, BUT HE NEVER RECEIVED INCOME FROM THOSE HE DIRECTALLY PREACHED TO. Were are those that are called to this financial revelation? I am not boasting, but I see it and am called to it. In love and Christ, Tim H. |

To answer your question: DIVISION IS SIN sticking up for it is SIN. YOU keep trying do divide me off, it appears so you can pigeon hole me into your understanding of religion. For your information I am not in a Word Faith Church; however I have studied some of their spiritual concepts, and do not agree with everything they say, but I do not disagree with every thing they say either. I stand before God in my own imperfect understanding of him, not hiding behind mans doctrines or traditions. I can live with the fact that he is going to correct me if I am wrong and lead me into and complete what he has begun in my life. Sir let me give you what the WORD says, you said: yet I see WOF as the most destructive heresy to enter the modern church and you see it as okay. Law and works based traditional religion IS the worst destruction to the modern Church: Gal 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. Did Paul preach works based religion, NO! Saved and made righteous by faith. Romans 4, 6 Eph. Gal. Gal. 2: 16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. Gal. 3: 1 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? 2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? 3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh? 4 Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain. 5 He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? 6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. 9 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham. 10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. 11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith. 12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them. 13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: Gal 5:4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace. Col 2: 6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: 7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power Continued net note: |

Mt 5:22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire. Paul Chow is the pastor of the largest Church in the world! I would definitely watch what I said about him and he is the on who wrote about a Rhema word. i do not clam to know everything, but I will choose my battles wisely. I have a wife and 2 kids and they are far more important that meaningless arguments with those who resist the Spiritual revelation of God; however, on the other hand I believe very strongly that I have been called here to sharpen my sword! Be blessed because you are blessed, not because of your great works, but because you are a blood bought child of the most high God and you are born again into his wonderful family!

I am a Christian, I believe you have misunderstood. I have not said anything about denominations leading people to hell. I have quoted Galatians in regards to works based teachings and what Paul had to say about them. I have made comments about the lack of discipleship in the Church. I have made statements about faith and salvation and righteousness by faith and not works. I have made comments about division being SIN. But I have not said: All you have talked about since you came on this forum, how denominations are leading people to hell. You are way off base there. I am a Bible believing Christian learning to live and move and have my being in Christ, who is our life. I am learning to walk in the Spirit and I will resist any attempt to DIVIDE the body, that is Satan's job. If you truly believe you are born again in your heart you are my brother, like it or not.

BradK, I am sincerely trying to bridge what seems to be a gap and the choice of my words may not always be as graceful as it should. Please extend me the grace to look and get beyond what may be a writing or personality flaw on my part, the Lord Jesus is being very patient with me and helping me to be more gracious and loving in my expression of him. I am glad we are getting in the same ballpark, actually I was concerned about my thoughts that is why I said, “I may be wrong”. Will talk more later, In Love, Tim H. |

I perceive Graceful is a blessed child of God and walking is a solid foundation of light in God's word. I do not think I would judge her on the merits of other peoples beliefs, I will remain open to her (I believe graceful is a sister, if not I am sorry Graceful) sound and clear writings of the truth. I believe you may have misinterpreted what the word of faith people teach. I personally would like to stay off the topic of denominations and stay on the word of God and Spiritual enlightenment. We need to be careful about what we say about our brothers and sisters, we will be judged for it. Love, Tim H. |

Let’s face it we live in an imperfect world. We attend Church and much of what is said is error, which does not necessarily mean we agree with it. We will all be accountable for what we did with Christ at the Second Coming. As for your comment: Denominations in themselves are not bad. 1Cor 1: 10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. 11 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. 12 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. 13 Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul? Denominations are divisions and they have excepted creeds, most which are not totally Biblical, that makes them Sin. Do I go to a Church that calls its self a name? Yes. We do not hold ourselves, and I do not hold my self as divided. Most who are in denominations do. I lift up Jesus Christ and all those borne of him are my brothers. Any other division is SIN. Does that mean I heap condemnation on you for attending your denomination? NO. You have to attend somewhere, and to find that assembly that truly preaches the truth that there is one body and one Lord, this is difficult to find. But to not recognize Division as Sin as the scripture in 1 Cor. Shows, is ignorance of the scripture. You need to see it for what it is. John Wesley if you have ever read about him, walked in the Spirit with a mighty testimony! When he died 3 denominations developed Wesleyn, Nazarene, and Methodist. If he only knew what people did with his life testimony. I have been in attendance of all three of these denominations and what they teach is a far cry from what John Wesley believed and walked in, I know I studied his life. I have a theory, when mighty men of God die, people go about teaching and preaching his revelations and what he did, instead of walking in the Spirit for them selves. This I believe is the greatest downfall of denominations, People stop hearing from God themselves and put God in a box. Why do you believe every Church in America is praying for revival and it is not being experienced? It is because of the doctrines and commandments of men that have God in a box and keep his Church divided. The truth is division is sin and to a certain degree we ALL are a part of it. We need to stand up for Christ not divisions/denominations. It is the truth, not hurt. Love, Tim |

Graceful, I agree with your writings on “Being led by the Spirit” My concern for many on this forum is they seem to downplay Spiritual enlightenment and discernment. I agree there have been many excesses in the Church of those who call themselves Full gospel, of the faith movement, or Charismatic. Some teaching being based on how one feels as opposed to the word of God. I will not deny that mistakes have been made in Christians coming into Spiritual enlightenment and maturity. But as the saying goes, “Don’t throw out the baby with the bath water.” Again I do not agree with everything that is preached from a pulpit in America, on TV or written a book. We are called to study to show ourselves approved, a workman who needs not be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of God for ourselves. Clearly as you know, we are to be following Christ in a new and living way, being led by the Spirit. This requires Spiritual enlightenment of the Word of God. If we do not get Spiritual understanding from the Spirit, to the spirit (from within or hearts) we will be following God by a written code (From outside our selves, like the Old Testament and the Jews that followed the LAW) and it will be reduced to LAW. 2Cor 3: 3 Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart. 4 And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward: 5 Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; 6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life On the other side of the coin we must keep ourselves grounded in the written word of God otherwise we can be deceived or misled. I do not disagree with this point at all. I do not think or believe I am without error, for we look through the glass darkly. I have learned a few things since I started writing on this forum. I could be wrong but it seems as if our forum brethren see Spiritual understanding as unbiblical. Like extra revelation such as the Jehovah Witness and Mormons when in fact it is VITALLY necessary for us to walk in the Spirit or be reduced to following the letter of the New Testament. The New Testament is not the New Law. My prayer is to be able to communicate with them to further understand what seems to be unclear, I hope this communication is part of bridging that gap! Love, Tim H. |
