Bible Note: Johnny3: Thank you for your postings and your participation in the Forum. My purpose in writing is in no way to criticize you or give you a hard time. I just have two questions regarding your postings. You write: "However, there are those who enter the congregation to deceive lead astray and destory. For this it is better to love and forgive." What does the Bible say about apostates, false teachers and false prophets? Does it actually say we should just love them, forgive and forget? Or does it issue a stern warning and tell us how to deal with such persons to STOP their deception and destruction? Also you write: "It says that Satan also is an angel of light, a deceiver." Are you sure it says that Satan IS an angel of light? See 2 Corinthians 11:14, quoted below from three different translations. 2 Corinthians 11:14 (NASB) No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. (NIV) And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. (TEV) Well, no wonder! Even Satan can disguise himself to look like an angel of light! Again, Johnny3, my intent here is to gently help you, not to hurt you. Be blessed and be a blessing here on the Forum. Grace to you, --JVH0212 |
