[TruthTalk] Idoloty
In EACH AND EVERY ASSEMBLAGE there are some who practice idolatry.(Divine worship given to ANYONE OR ANYTHING OTHER THAN GOD). Many who are raised up by the Lord become the objects of idolatry. One ought also give some attention to ICONOGRAPHY.

We ought ALL to take care regarding the mishandling of God's words, Judy. - Original Message - From: Judy Taylor To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Cc: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Sent: January 06, 2006 08:51 Subject: Re: [TruthTalk] Idoloty We could begin perhaps by reverting to "plain speech" Lance. This would help a whole lot because IMO some here employ the Limerick syndrome (I'veheard the same complaints) which Malachy McCourt described as follows: "There was always THE STORY in any gathering in Limerick. Be it boys, girls, the men, the women. BALD FACTS WERE CONSIDERED COLD AND INHUMAN; therefore all storied events had to be wrapped in words. Warm words, serried words, glittering, poetic, harsh, and even blasphemous words" News Flash! God deals in "bald facts" and considers adding other meanings to His plain meaning anathema.

From: Judy Taylor I'll tell you then Lance since you don't appear to be so adept at catching on to "meaning" either. I have to hear the voice of Jesus before I will receive anything doctrinal from others. IOW, it must line up with "scripture" and as I've been saying and saying, and saying, especially this morning. You don't produce anything other than opinion and most of the time it is opinion that conflicts with scripture. Bill and John are feeding from the same source as you. As for DM, I think you and those in agreement with you are completely and utterlyreckless with regard to him. How would you know whether or not I have learned and what I have learned from him?

I see you as a well meaning, on occasion, (mis)interpreter of Scripture.YOU KNOW I'm not alone on this (on TT) Do I believe you to be teachable on this? I do not! Why? I've no idea!As far as an 'obligation' well, that's been fulfilled many times over by Bill, John and, even DM. Did you budge? You did not! Why (again)? I've no idea. Does any of this threaten your relationship with the Lord? IMO, NO! From: Judy Taylor Lance, I think you must be an expert on misapprehension in others because this is what you speak about more than anything else. If you believe that I an wresting the scriptures to my own destruction then you have a God given obligation to straighten me out - BY THE SCRIPTURES.

Deception carries with it a particular meaning. Misapprehension carries with it a different meaning. From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Do Catholics think of these statues as "idols.?" Are they not expressions of their faith in God and His Christ? None of the idols of the Message were attached to the Living God. The compaison, Dean, that you make is not a biblical one.jd Catholics or members of the rcc are taught that the ONLY way to heaven is through the Roman system so they are deceived right up front; they may not "think" of their statues and dead saints as idols but this does not mean that they are not. Deceived ppl don't know they are deceived. Even the Pope John Paul II revered Mary and prayed to the Black Madonna. cd: John this message was in my drafts folder-so I sent it today not intending to rehash old augments by preaching the old gospel in modern times but to enlighten as the old gospel has never changed. I disagree as if is very biblical. It doesn't matter what th
