1 | what is the greek word for "taketh away" | Not Specified | sharon | 34503 | ||
In the verse John 15:2 I was told that the actual greek word for "taketh away" is actually "lifts up". That would make that verse mean something totally different. It would mean that Jesus lifts up the branch and tends to it to make it more productive. A vinedresser never cuts off a branch unless it is dead. Branches can be thriving but be immersed in dirt where sun and light can't get to it. After the vinedresser tends to it, or washes it off, (sin, in the persons life) it then can be lifted onto a trelis where it has support until it is well enough to produce fruit again. I think that is what Jesus was saying. Any branch (person) in Christ would never be cut off, but tended to until it was healthy again. What are some responses? I just know that Jesus loves the ones who are in Him and wouldn't cut them off if they were just temporarily going in the dirt ( sin). Am I right? sharon |

2 | catholic church.......first church? | Not Specified | sharon | 35000 | ||
I was watching the catholic network here in alabama. There was a former baptist lady on there who converted to what she called "Jesus's true and only church". She said the Holy Spirit directed her to go back home where she belonged. She said all her life she was taught the catholic church was anti-christ and now she feels she has converted to the "first and only church of God".They are insinuating that protestants are being fooled to believe they are misled and not in the right church and that the faith the Bible talks about is "the catholic faith". I was raised catholic and was a miserable person until I found that Christ had risen just for me. Now, she has gone back to her roots as she called it. Saying that all the sacraments should be followed,and that mary is the mother of God.....now who is being misled. It just bothers me that they think they are the first and only true church,. any comments? I was very bothered by them saying that the catholic church is the one handed down by the apostles and that is the faith as christians we should partake of. She mentioned reading a boat load of history on the church and finding out the faith of all the saints like st. patrick and others and after reading of their journey decided she should join them..........any comments would be appreciated. sharon |

In 1st John he talks about if someone says they are without sin they don't know the truth. Later in chapter 3 it says that if you are born of God you don't sin. How is it that Paul talks about struggling with sin and John says we don't? | ||||||
