61 | is jesus god | John 1:1 | Glory Bound | 129970 | ||
True, but aren't there those of us who can defend the truth against the many who preach "the vain philosophies of man?" Or are we all afraid of the attacks suffered by those who do? The Internet is a world of wealth. Some Christians consider such forums a waste of time. I attest that anything one does that advocates the true Word, is worthwhile. As with everything good, there are those who will find a way to use it for bad. Can we Christians not serve our Master with the same steadfast perseverance as they? I just had to say that... GB |

63 | Born of the water means? | John 3:5 | Glory Bound | 134258 | ||
I'm sorry New Creature. I have heard your belief before, but what you believe, rational as it may sound, and what scripture teaches are two completely different things. Reread 3:6. John 3:6 That which is BORN OF THE FLESH IS FLESH; and that which is BORN OF THE SPIRIT IS SPIRIT. Water is merely a symbol of cleansing. Christ's blood cleanses the soul of man. I can't remember where it is, but I read a passage somewhere, which compaired the clensing of the earth durring the flood with baptism. If your scenario were the case, why did Christ bleed water when the soldier pierced his side with the spear? GB |

Very interesting. I remember when this post originated. I have heard this topic preached before, but did not hear the facts. I didn't think there was a biblical answer. Thank you Ed. I know I have read over that passage, but it never took root. You are very observant. GB |

My friend, if you wish to stand on your soap box and continue your blatant display of your lack of Biblical learning and your hardheaded ignorance and illiteracy, far be it from me to make another attempt at keeping you from displaying such. Rest assured, I need no advice from the likes of one such as yourself where my Jesus is concerned, nor where my focus need be. I know the kind and rest my case. Control... Control. Surely you have learned something from atop that soap box. GB. |

I wonder if the Pharasees considered it an "insult" when Christ called them vipers and sons of Satan. Sure they did. Surely though there may have been some who saw the truth in His words. Many consider any form of correction an insult. Learn how to accept rebuke, dear soul. There is a difference between constructive and distructive criticism. Mine ws not meant as an insult. It was meant to shake you, and hopefully open your eyes. What I stated initially was not intend to be distructive, as you took it. It was intended to assist. But those who refuse help are beyond help. If you want to be an affective messenger, consider what I said. No one is going to listen to anyone who portrays such as what I noted you portrayed. GB |

Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1Ti 5:20 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. 2Ti.4:3-4 Apparently you do not understand His words, It is no surprise that you do not understand mine.

As usual Tim, your words are pure. Tim, I too am familiar with those to whom you refer concerning their insulting posts. However, I would attest that there are occasions when the naked truth is insulting. But when ones nakedness is revealed, should they not do something other than defend their nakedness? When one makes ignorant statements concerning scripture, and then refuses scriptural instruction, I should think that the instructor would be expected to either "give up" on that person, or present the truth in a more firm manor. My biggest mistake is that I do not like to give up where scriptural truth is concerned.Perhaps I added a little more seasoning than I should. I apologize only to any who may have misunderstood my intentions. I make no apologies concerning any of my statements to this individual. As I intend to take your thoughts to heart, "If ones intentions are pure, will they not listen to correction?" Thank you Tim GB |

Tim, your words are filled with wisdom. As I read them, I couldn't help but to think that we are told that we should be as Christ. I expect you have probably had those two statements aimed at you at one time or another. I have been the recipient of those particular statements, and many which were much more derogatory. It is of a certainty that anyone who, like you and I, stand on the "Unleavened Word," has endured such. I like your thought that "what I am presenting isn't MY TRUTH! It is God's truth. Therefore, I don't have to take it personally if His truth is rejected by someone. It falls in line with my thought that the "if the recipient doesn't like the message, they should take it up with the originator; not the messenger." I am always open to truth. Most whom I converse with think they have it. I do not claim to be anyone special where the Word is concerned, but I do know the truth, and a lie or "half truth," which is also a lie, when I see it. I'm sorry but I just can't keep my mouth shut when I see lies and half truths where the Word is concerned. As many should, themselves consider, I am still in the process of honing my method of delivery though. What amazes me is when someone comes to these boards; asks a question; then wants to argue the answer. Those, I feel are rarely interested in the truth. They only wish to twist it. I only respond to such posts in hopes that others will see the truth. I wonder how often the Sewer has sewn in what appeared to be fertile soil, only to find that the seeds that fell along the way produced the more. GB |

Your note is well understood and agreed on. I'd have to say that Love is the most important but, that truth has a place where LOVE is concerned. I would interject my thoughts concerning your first example. I'd have to say, "Grandmother, I love you and appreciate the cookies you made for me, but what did you put in them?" Who knows, she may have accidentally used powdered bleach in place of sugar, and it may severly affect someone else. Most assuredly, the root of our being is to be LOVE. Yet too many confuse the fact that truth is an ingredient where love is concerned. Is not LOVE truth? I look on truth as a seasoning where LOVE is concerned. It is necessary. Some do not like salt. Others do. Some require more salt than others. Even still, many require garlic, or pepper as a seasoning. Where LOVE is concerned, TRUTH is a necessary ingredient, but as with any seasoning, there can be too much or too little. In Christ GB |

"You should have been there to have given me the right response" Did I not read a post concerning this matter? They do get quiet confusing and hard to follow at times. GB |

74 | Was Paul speaking a believer or not one | Rom 7:15 | Glory Bound | 133912 | ||
This is my favorite passage in Romans. Paul was most assuredly speaking as a believer. He was pointing out the battle that goes on in most believers. The battle between the sinful flesh, the lusts thereof, and the Godly desire for righteousness in the mind and soul of the believer. Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. These rulers are not only external, but only too often they are internal. GB |

76 | a more revealing light. | Rom 8:32 | Glory Bound | 132832 | ||
Thanks folks. It appears that somehow I may have posted my original post twice. I appreciate your responses. It took little more than for me to open my bible, for me to remember the following. I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. Now if I do what I do not want, I agree that the law is good. So then it is no longer I that do it, but sin which dwells within me. For I know that nothing good dwells within me, that is, in my flesh. I can will what is right, but I cannot do it. For I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want is what I do. Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I that do it, but sin which dwells within me. So I find it to be a law that when I want to do right, evil lies close at hand. For I delight in the law of God, in my inmost self, but I see in my members another law at war with the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin which dwells in my members. Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I of myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin. Romans 7:15-25.NIV I pray this passage will be as strenthtening to others as it, and your posts are to me. May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. GB |

77 | License To Marry? | Rom 13:1 | Glory Bound | 130584 | ||
I never really thought of it before, and I really don't recall any mentions thereof in scripture, but If Moses gave a "writing of divorcement," and scripture makes at least 11 mentions thereof, might there not have been some sort of "writting of marriage"? I can understand the licensing of marriage today. IF IT WERE ACCORDING TO A REASON. Unfortunantly though, there seems to be little rational reasoning this day and time, concerning marriage, or much of anything else for that matter. GB |
||||||
78 | License To Marry? | Rom 13:1 | Glory Bound | 130670 | ||
I'm not familiar with the statistics, but I would ask. how many marriage licenses "between a man and a woman" are regularly refused? Gods word doesn't say "THAT THERE NEEDS TO BE A LICENSE TO MARRY", but it does tell us to adhere to the laws of the land. Whether you, or I like or understand the law or not, is of no consequence. You state: "It just says that whoever God so joins let no man put asunder. Asunder means to not allow any person to have authority over you in the matters of God and the heart--except for God. " I would suggest you look up the word "asunder" before you make any more statements concerning its meaning. Word for word, a simple dictionary will cover a ton of ignorance. Concerning scripture one must keep in mind that "precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little", that they may join "them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts" If you do not understand my statement and quotations from scripture, you would be well advised to invest in a good dictionary.

79 | License To Marry? | Rom 13:1 | Glory Bound | 130675 | ||
If you didn't get a marriage license, is your pastor a revolutionary too? Was there a Pastor? It is for sure that you were not married by a Justice of the peace. Was there an actual marriage? Or as many, have you simply made a bunch of vows and thus consider yourselves married in the eyes of God? Surely not! GB |

80 | Can a Christian be a Democrat? | 1 Cor 1:10 | Glory Bound | 134017 | ||
I think it is what the Democrats stand for today that this person is addressing. The so-called "Democratic" party advocate abortion, same sex marriage, etc, etc, and it seems, everything that scripture teaches against. A person who knows scripture and truly loves the Lord [will not] vote for one, no matter the political party, who advocates the opposite of what scripture, teaches. Many who profess to be Christians will, for whatever reason (and whatever reason it is, it is a DEMONIC deception), say that they can support those who advocate such as what the Democratic Party does today, but I have news for them... One, who supports another who murders, or makes it "legal" to murder, will be just as guilty on judgment day as the very doctor who removed the cranial matter (brains) from that partially born infant. There is ABSOLUTELY no medical reason for a partial birth abortion! And the fact of the matter is that fewer abortions are performed with the health of the mother in mind, than simply because the child is not wanted for whatever reason. If you do not believe me, check the stats for yourself. Scripture addresses no specific person or political party concerning such matters. It does however, address specific actions which individuals or political parties may practise. We cannot judge anyone, but for heavens sake people! We have the authority to judge their actions. That authority is called The Word… Scripture… When will we learn to use that authority? GB |
