Subject: Why Could He Not Do Many Miracles? |
Bible Note: Imm, I'm glad your not offended! And thanks for pointing out why you responded to my questions the way you did. I can see what you are saying on that point. I was in error grouping you that way with others in an attempt to not come across as if I was singling you out in error. Imm, your comments "As I read, and study, I find what I can live with, as far as belief goes. The point is, the scripture in question, isn't something that is a hinge, to my salvation. Therefore I personally am satisfied with my own belief, as to why not many mighty works were done there." John 17:17 (NASB) "Sanctify them in the truth; Your word is truth." Matthew 4:4 (NASB) "But He answered and said, "It is written, 'MAN SHALL NOT LIVE ON BREAD ALONE, BUT ON EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD.'" Because thousands of people believe "Benny Henn has a Ministry of Healing" doesn't necessarily mean that their salvation is at stake either, but it does prove that a lack of understanding the scripture and/or one who clings to their own belief not founded in scripture can easily be lead astray and taken advantage of. and You say "The differences in our opinions, are what make this FORUM possible, we come from different backgrounds, with different experiences, that cause all of us to believe what, and how we do, your not wrong, I'm not right, were different that's all." Perhaps it was not your intent, but this last statement in context with your post smacks of relativism. So that I don't put words in your mouth, let me simply ask, is that what you are teaching here? It is not what is right for me and what is right for you, it is what is right in God’s eyes that you and I both must come to understand and agree to. Steve |
