Subject: how to start reading the bible? |
Bible Note: Dear Justme, I appreciate your understanding. Yes, I do not believe in a fiery hell where God torments souls for all eternity. Neither do I believe in a Triune God, three in one. I believe that God the Father created Jesus Christ and through Him created all things that we now see in the material world. Yes, you are correct on my positions. I am not here to disrespect anyone, nor do I show unkindness to anyone. If in a post I get excited, it's because of the passion of my message and not so that I am trying to be offensive to you or others listening. The Truth is so precious and it's not worth arguing over because that would violate the spirit of the Truth, the Holy Spirit would be silenced and neither of us would learn anything. I love all of you and I realize and understand that you do not have to agree with me to be a true Christian, I just realize that God has lead us on different paths and I believe that I have more light than most of you, but this is not to your shame, it's just God has not yet revealed to you what He has shown me and many others like me. I am confident that you and everyone on this forum will one day see 'eye to eye' with me and that one day, you will believe as I do, for in the Kingdom of God, there will be only ONE RELIGION, and I believe that to be called "THE TRUTH", and so I have no urge to offend because all will eventually agree with each other in the end and whatever errors I may have, God will correct them as well. However, I am willing to hear your side of the story, but having been an associate pastor of a Baptist church and having been a former Missionary Baptist Church ordained minister, I am well-versed in the dogma of the Baptist faith, so I'm not sure that you could share anything with me that I do not already know. However, I am open ears, who knows, God may just speak to me through you. I used to believe in the Trinity and Hellfire and damnation and very much so, so I believe that God has removed me from the darkness and given me the light of His Word, the Truth, so I am not offended by those who call me names, as I know that I am not better off than my Master, Who likewise was spat upon and called names and crucified.
