Bible Note: I believe I've made myself clear and no further amount of debate will add to what I've said on the matter. I will retire from this debate. When we can bring correction to an abuse is not having just gone through it, but when forgiveness and mercy has cleansed out the bitterness and the power of God has brought healing to the wounds. Until that happens, we are trapped by the poison even if we now find ourselves in battle against it. I'm concerned you'll quickly dismiss this advice like the rest of what I have laid out. Let me say this.. I am not the one throwing stones or bringing accusations against people I would be VERY hard pressed to discount as genuine Christians. That, in itself, should give one pause to think carefully about one's position. Mormon's are clearly false, since they have added to cannonized Scripture to support their doctrines. One must firstly settle the issue of what is Scripture before there can be any foundation to build upon. Comparing them to WOF is just another faulty argument that you have used by tieing something else to what the basic tenets you refer to as WOF are. Oh..and btw. The entire paragraph about Job,Paul, Abraham, keys and all that is all conjecture.. not the basic tenets that I am defending. None of those things you are mentioning are backed conclusively by Scripture. They can be vaguely alluded to, but are in no way remotely close to clear to build doctrine from. So again, it is just a way to blame excesses and aberrations as evidence against the basic fundamental tenets you refer to as WOF. And Discenment is the ability to identify the true from the false, nothing really more than that, at its basic level. So, I'll leave this debate with those final comments and thoughts. Now, I'll go pray that God will keep me from any temptations to sin out of pride, anger, or ill will regarding our difference of opinion. I am asking God that he will bless you and lead you into all truth and righteousness.. as well as myself to the same.. that we can stand before him with our hearts clear of any sin resulting from our difference of opinion. Be blessed by our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. |
