Subject: Is God hand so short that he cannot lead |
Bible Note: Tim 1 If you will look Tim Sheasby isn't around much anymore and I wasn't addressing him. Your over all tone is very negative. 2 I haven't responded to your question other than ask how you were hurt. 3 The doctrine of the denomination I belong to is very much Spirit lead. 4 I'm not sure what cows your talking about but most denominations do call for holiness. I know holiness is something most people buck. However the word does say without holiness we will not see God. 5 I'm not sure who has been hurt and who hasn't but this I know you have and I would like to discuss it with you. 6 My Spiritual insight is nothing more than knowing when someone is striking out in anger over a hurt they have received. 7 In Proverbs it says a sweet reply is received while a sour one isn't. The scripture also says make sure you remove the beam from your eye before you attempt to remove the speck from your brothers. It further says we are not to judge another man's slave. 8 I think you generalise when you says denominations, say do this and don't do this and such. I know most denominations now speak only of dressing modestly. There are some that have clothes line preaching but they are fewer and fewer. I also know God honors those that honor Him, I know many men and women that dressed under dress codes you would disagree with and they were honored for it by God. Tim you talk of a conspiracy of learned men that have corrupted the word just so they could retain power. Do you really think such church leaders as John MacArthur, Jack Hayford, Tony Evans, Joe Stowell, Erwin Lutzer, Norman Geisler, Ravi Zachariah, Billy Graham, Josh MacDowell, Irwin Kroll, Meyer Prealman, Stanley Horton, David Jeremiah and many others have never read the Bible for themselves and are merely influenced by what others have previously taught? Or do you think these men are so corrupt that would purposely corrupt God's word to deceive others? Again Tim I'm not trying to upset you. I just see a lot of hurt here and I want to know if I can help. EdB |
