Subject: TKO, does God operate differently today? |
Bible Note: Greetings, TKO; Jesus said "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." (John 13:34-35) Your insults of forum members and your blanket condemnation of the church as a whole do not seem rooted in love. If you are a Christian then many/most of the folks in this discussion are your brothers and sisters in Christ. And we are part of the church you seem to despise. You are entitled to your interpretations of Scripture; other forum members are entitled to disagree and to cite the Scriptures on which their understanding is based. Jesus' own disciples disagreed with one another on matters of faith and practice. Do you suppose that now, 20 centuries later, you are the sole custodian of truth? And just for the record, you did say in your response to Grace_and_Truth that God has changed since the first century and we (the church) haven't. If your answer was not what you meant to say then why not just admit it and move on? "Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." (Ephesians 4:29-32) Peace and grace, Steve aka Indiana Jones |
