81 | adultrus marriage, a "marriage" in Gods | Matt 5:31 | GeorJoy | 93208 | ||
Oh Praise His MIGHTY name! And give thanks for those such as yourself. What a testimony! "What GOD hath joined together." I will say that, God has never joined an adulturer together. "man reminds us all the days of our lives." So true. So true. It is our responsibility to spread the Word in it's UNLEAVENED purity. I love the faxcimially thought. I admire you DAIRYLEADER5. Please read my notes concerning this matter and give me your thoughts thereon. My eMail is geobro@pngusa.net Post them if you like, email if you wish. I have been flamed, blasphemen and insulted, yet I hold fast to what I have stated. My only remorse concerning my notes is in the nagging questions below; 1) have I gone too far in standing firm on the Word? 2)Should I have refrained from responding to the one and only one, who simply could not, or would not comprehend the very Word that I quoted?" As it turns out, the originator of this particular topic, (newoldstock)fell in to the category of my 1st note and all is well where he is concerned. But my notes seem to touch the very nerve of one certin individual. I can not for the life of me understand why. I know that I am often blunt. I also know that where the Word is concerned, I can not and will not be swayed. DAIRYLEADER5, your response and comments concerning your observation of my notes in this thread will be very much appreciated. In Christ George |

84 | Hell not created for man? | Matt 25:41 | GeorJoy | 89787 | ||
Yea, but (how) have you come to this conclusion? Can you back it up with scripture? If not, you may be right, but you could also be wrong. Are you just throwing the dice, or playing with a full house. What if there is a Flush out there? Actually searching333, you have hit the nail on the head. What I am trying to say is; don't trust others to provide (all) your spiritusl nourishment. You could eventually wind up with a bellie ache if you do. Tilling and planting ones own garden is a very rewarding experience. The harvest is so much more desirable than anything anyone else can provide. the more you do it, the better you become. In Love in Christ George |

85 | Hell not created for man? | Matt 25:41 | GeorJoy | 89815 | ||
The Lord (is) the only one who fully knows everything! Some things He has given us to know. Others He has witheld. Still others, He intends for us to seek out. I simply contend that the safest place is "The Word." There is nothing wrong with asking and listening. For; Rom 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. But remember the times in which you live, for; Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. God Bless George |

86 | I'm skeptical | Luke 14:26 | GeorJoy | 101370 | ||
Per Matthew Henrys Commentary concerning Mat7:13, Mat7:14. Observe here, 1. The account that is given of the bad way of sin, and the good way of holiness. There are but two ways, right and wrong, good and evil; the way to heaven, and the way to hell; in the one of which we are all of us walking: no middle place hereafter, no middle way now: the distinction of the children of men into saints and sinners, godly and ungodly, will swallow up all to eternity.

88 | George, do you believe? | Luke 14:26 | GeorJoy | 101439 | ||
I thank you for your gentle rebuke. However... Dear Brother, if you call this less than gentle, then you don't know harsh, for how can one be a believer if he does not believe in the word of Him whom he profess' belief. This is to call our Savior a liar and to fool ones self. I wonder how many who witnessed Christ speaking to the Scribes and Pharisees thought his statements less than gentle. "But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites... Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets. But woe unto you, Pharisees! Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are as graves which appear not, and the men that walk over them are not aware of them." How many in this forum would come down heavy on another who used such language as this? I make no appologies for striving to live by, witness by, and boldly state the Word in its unleavened form. My prayer is that by His will, grace and guidance we should all strive to thus. Exhorting in Christ George |

Searcher. I do not answer to you. As yourself, I answer to a higher power. Should Lockman agree with you, I am sure they will take appropriate action. Otherwise any who do not want to hear truth should avoid my posts. Prove me wrong with scripture and I will admit fault and cease stating the Word. Otherwise, you might want to consider my words of exortation. "Spare the rod and spoil the child." Are there not a bunch of spoiled brats who have grown to spoiled adults in this generation? Lovingly Exorting in Christ George |

91 | George, do you believe? | Luke 14:26 | GeorJoy | 101443 | ||
Aixen7z4, yours is a truly a tender and heart warming profile, but compared to yourself; I am as the beggar at the gate. You have the upbringing. I only have the meager necessities. It is my desire to spread what little I have, for like yourself, what I have is greater than the greatest of worldly riches. Yours appears to be a gift of eloquence. Mine is a simple gift of exhortation. One I am still in the process of perfecting. Once perfected, I am sure all will admire my gift as they do yours. The only problem is that by that time neither of our gifts will be necessary, for the race will have been run and our team will have crossed the finish line in Glory. Until then, all I have is what I have. And though I will continue to strive for perfection, I will be content, for I know that He is still working on me. Lovingly in Christ George |

92 | Hebrew idioms? | Luke 14:26 | GeorJoy | 101461 | ||
Please forgive me, my dear friend, but you make it appear as though you are searching for something God alone can provide. Without at least a minute amount of faith, you are not going to see that something when you run head long into it. We Christians are far from perfect. Some are further than others. Still yet, some are so far away that they are only "called" Christians, for lack of calling them what they really are, hypocrites. If you are really searching for truth, don’t depend on others. You can learn from others, but don’t depend on anything but the Spirit for truth, for “all man are liars.” In a confounded way, you remind me of myself many years ago. Perhaps this is why I have come down so hard on you. Every time I have ever reached out to anyone, I have been let down, disgraced and discouraged. I finally realized that there is no one I can depend on other than the Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit. One has to believe in something before he can believe in anything… I noted what you consider the discrepancies in the bible very early in my “pre Christian” life. Even then, I knew that there was much that I did not know. I did not allow those “doubts” to mature. From your posts, you seem to be feeding and nurturing your doubts. Again, I will have to tell you that there MUST be at least a grain of faith before there is a chance. Yet, HE can do anything, and perhaps your time simply hasn’t come yet. Wait patiently. Don’t be discouraged. It took nearly 49 years for me to call myself a Christian, for I knew myself and I refused to become a hypocrite such as those of whom you make note. . READ MY PROFILE.” “poor in spirit” is not what you depicted, and most assuredly not what I was referring to. Wicked and evil would be better suited. Just a thought you may want to consider. The post that I responded to, made it appear as though you were simply looking for fuel for a fire. I am sure you have heard of "the wolf in sheep’s clothing." In Christ George |

Please elaborate Searcher. The post you attach your note to seems to be the post that finally got the point across. Don't hold back my dear brother. Say it like you feel it. But... Please say it with a biblical foundation. For, as is in all my posts, that is the foundation on which I will respond. As to the line you speak of. If I am to be "digitally martyred" in this forum for stating the Word in it's unleavened purity, then I will continue to praise His name, and pray for those who were, and are too blind to see. Exhorting In Christ George |

96 | how do I know if God is speaking to me | John | GeorJoy | 94999 | ||
I once called it a "gut feeling." Whenever I went against that feeling, I was inevitably wrong. Since learning how to walk in the Spirit, I no longer call it a "gut feeling," for I now reconize that "gut feeling" for what it really is. George |

97 | Are you onced saved always saved? | John | GeorJoy | 102328 | ||
Rev 3:5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. Consider The Nation of Israel. How many times did they turn from the Lord? Through His infinant mercy He has always drawn them back. But what of those individuals who perrished durring their withdrawel? "He that overcometh." Are there not many who have sliped back into the grips of sin? One would say, "well they were not saved in the first place;" I would say that one should not be the first to cast that stone and make the judgement as to who was and is saved. God can not and will not loose what is His. Yet what is His has a "free will," and can, and have Backslid to sin and will perrish in the lake of fire. Salvation is salvation! Christ WILL NOT be crucified a second time for those not included in the statement "He that overcometh...." The Lion does give ETERNAL LIFE, but He does not force it on anyone. Not even the believer. He will never let go, but one can free himself from His grip. The "once saved, always saved" thought implies that once the lamb is in the flock and following the Shepherd, he has a fence around him. A fence which he can never escape and be devoured by the wolf. Scripture does not teach this thought. Quiet the contrary, scripture tells us to be ever watchfull... George |

98 | Are you onced saved always saved? | John | GeorJoy | 102372 | ||
My position, dear Hank is SCRIPTURE. As I have stated previously, God "forces" NOTHING on anyone. Not even those who have accepted His Son. Eternal life IS ETERNAL. ETERITY is forever, not bondage. To have something, one MUST accept something, and retain it as well. In the case of the "prodical son". Had that son died in the process of splurging his inheritance, would he have died within the will of his father? I think not. The father would have grieved because he loved the child, but he would have never condoned the childs action. Just like that prodical son, we all have to "accept" the will of the Father, and continue to live and strive to the best of our ability to be pleasing in His sight. I appologize. I do not believe "Once saved, always saved." I do believe that those who do believe this way believe dangerously. I believe in "Grace." No one can convince me that the man or woman who has served God all their life, and because of one of lifes tragedies fallen away from their belief, will enter the gates of heaven. For the righteous are not saved by their acts of righteousness. Nor are the sinfull condemned by their acts of sin. We are saved by the GRACE of God! "man is stronger than Christ's "grip" " This is a weak argument and totally outside of the context of my statement. It seems that some would state that once a "slave" to Christ, one CAN NOT escape. I would state that Gal 5:1 says "Stand fast therefore in the liberty with which Christ has made us free..." Freedom is not bondage. Once saved, always saved is bondage to salvation. WILL NOT, I tend to agree with. CAN NOT is absurdity! and totally out of scripture. So it would appear that we are on the verge of saying the same thing. George |

99 | Are you onced saved always saved? | John | GeorJoy | 102383 | ||
In one of my previous posts I stated something to the affect of the following; "can not is obsurdity; will not, I tend to agree with." There is no such thing as "more salvation!" Continued salvation would be more suitable. Per Mr Webster; Salvation is 1 a : deliverance from the power and effects of sin b : the agent or means that effects salvation c Christian Science : the realization of the supremacy of infinite Mind over all bringing with it the destruction of the illusion of sin, sickness, and death 2 : liberation from ignorance or illusion 3 a : preservation from destruction or failure b : deliverance from danger or difficulty The statement "once saved, always saved" states that one can not turn from the deliverance from danger or difficulty. Your post strengthens my agreement with the "will not" portion of that statement, yet and still, I can't yet agree with "once saved, always saved," but I can't say that I totally disagree with it either. Dear soul, you stated "I do believe wholeheartedly, that He that saved me, is more than capable to keep me." I do too. But scripture teachs that one "can remove his name from the Lambs Book of life." If anyone can, through scripture prove "once saved, always saved," I will accept that statement. Otherwise, through scripture I will continue to assert the statement that "this is a dangerous" way to believe. Either way; the bottom line is that we accept, believe, and repent. This is the foundation. All other discussion is "non essential." I can, and will agree to disagree with my bretherin in this matter. I pray they can and will do the same. What does "IMHO" mean? All for One And One for all. In Christ George |

100 | What Sin? | John | GeorJoy | 102407 | ||
Paul says not to quarrel about issues that are a matter of opinion. Considering the fact that both sides on this issue have been stated, and much opinion as to scriptural interptitation has surfaced, I should think that quarreling is the next phase. Thus I will rest my case and admit only to a draw, agreeing to dissagree. Humbly George |
