Subject: Finding 'Act as though you have faith' |
Bible Note: This is not a response to anything I said in my post. However, you wrote: "Joe - there are Whole Chapters in the Bible that are a SEALED work." You keep using that term. What do you mean when you say a chapter, passage, or book is "sealed" or "unsealed"? You wrote: "How can you reform Christianity when you do not know the mind or will of God on these matters?" I know the Bible. I am part of the church of Jesus Christ, with its 2000 years of apostolic revelation and subsequent interpretation. The Holy Spirit indwells me and teaches me. Not a bad combination for knowing God's will... You wrote: "Christians in the past have killed thousands in the name of reform." Examples of killing in the name of "reform"? Even if you could produce significant cases of such a phenomenon, the acts of misguided individuals does not mean that reformation of the church is not necessary. "You should raise your level of understaning. There is only one who speaks for Father (God) and that is the Son of God - Jesus." Really? So the OT and NT prophets did not speak for God? The inspired writers of the New Testament did not speak for God? The ones God appoints as teachers of His revealed word do not speak for God? We are in serious trouble if the only one who ever spoke for God ascended into heaven twenty centuries ago. Now, about what I said regarding Matthew 8....? --Joe! |
