Bible
From: "Lance Muir" <

Was
written by men (granted, with the aid of the HS) and,
it is interpreted by
men (and women)
jt: This is the problem and the reason we do not
communicate.
Your view is totally natural, mine supernatural or
Spiritual. I
would say the Bible was written by the inspiration of
the Holy
Spirit and is ONLY ever interpreted correctly with
the help and
assistance of the Holy Spirit because the things of God are
foolishness to the 'natural man'.
Is there anyone on this site who has not, on occasion,
misinterpreted Scripture? Or, God forbid, may not presently be
misinterpreting this Book?
jt: Depends.. There is certainly a lot of
misinterpreting going on.
It began to come together for me when I started doing
my own
homework and quit looking to great men after the
flesh for
answers. Now I don't have to ignore any or cut
any out, I can
have confidence in the whole Bible, every word and I
love the
Hymn 'Wonderful Words of Life' I think it is my
favorite.
One sometimes wonders if there's a more dangerous instrument
in the hands of a believer than the Bible. I mean dangerous (bad)
not dangerous (good). Scripture + Spirit-filled believer = this site,
all churches, all traditions.
jt: I'd say Scripture + Carnal believer + Psychology
+ Mens
Theology + Doctrines of devils which encompass
most of the
other as well.
What we always have is an admixture of truth & error. Non is
excluded from this reality. May I see the names of those who
believe themselves to be noteworthy exceptions to the foregoing.

jt: Moot point, since noone is there yet; even the
apostle Paul toward
the end of his ministry said "he had not yet
attained" and he wrote
most of the NT. But we forget what is behind and
press on looking
to Jesus the author and perfector of our faith Note:
Faith that comes
by hearing and hearing by the Word of God which is
found in this
Bible. judyt

Last I read it was the Holy Spirit who convicts of

When do
unrepentant sinners ever request counseling?
They would be unrepentant
sinners if they were seeking counsel.

Kevin isn't the
one who dragged this out of the woodpile - it
was one of 'in your words'
your paranoid friends Bill trying to
counsel where counselling had not
been requested. jt

Kevin, maybe
sometimes its better to stay out of other people's business,
especially if
all you are doing in it is making matters worse. Even the paranoid
(like
me, and John, and Izzy, and DaveH, and Blaine, and Lance, and DavidM,
and
whoever else you don't like) can have some true enemies. Bill Taylor

Well I guess Jesus should rewrite Mark 16
Todays 21 first century version:
Go ye into all the world and preach
the gospel to those that want to hear it
This is a public list and you are choosing to be here
Why do you communicate with Izzy? Do you actually think you are
accomplishing some good addressing your thoughts to someone who is not
listening to you? I don't mind the discussion with you, but
Izzy does. the scriptures teach that we are not to "seek our
own." Love does not seek its own way or will. Izzy
does have a delete button. And you have instruction from God on
how to show respect to others. Why not practice what you preach
instead of insisting on your "rights" as a member of a public
list.
