Subject: What is iniquity in Matthew 7:23? |
Bible Note: giboone: Having read this very long thread that you have noteworthy been involved in, I for one find your theology and Biblical knowledge quite remarkable. I made some observations that stand out rather clearly to me about you, in your notes and responses to others. Clearly you do not except what the book of Acts says about Peter and the sheet, and that all living things were now to be eaten. In your notes to Hank, you showed you are able to defend your opinion with a well crafted and thoughtout opposition. I find it odd that with your knowledge of Scripture you still consider yourself a truth seeker. Clearly the knowledge you have did not come about in a short duration of study. The evidence of Biblical knowledge you display shows much study and reasonong have taken place in your heart and mind. There is little doubt in my mind as to you stand on the questions Hank and others asked you, it was clear to me,after reading all you notes. Greg, the thing that stands out so transparent is that you have head knowledge beyond most who call themselves Christians. Which I humbly but have no reluctance in making it clearly understood. Greg as you know the thing that is clear, what you do not have is genuine love for other believers. Christ said that Love would be one way to tell believers in Christ by, was their love for each other. Greg, there is more than enough knowledge to get what you need to become born again. However, if you are so determined to defend your unorthodox beliefs about keeping the law over accepting the Grace and Mercy of Jesus Christ who has set you free if only you would come out of the life of living under the law. Seldom does someone of your deternation and knowledge make the step of faith into wisdom in Chist. You have my sincere pity, for you have head knowledge, but you heart is hard, and you may be so smart that child like faith may be impossible for you, that Greg is very sad. You well may be too smart and wise in your own eyes to see you have become futile and foolish in your search for knowledge you have'nt found the TRUTH AND THE WAY.....Jesus Christ. Peace. justme |
