Re: [TruthTalk] The Right Way To Get To The Truth

When Jt & Dm combine forces the only thing one can do is show a white flag. Go back to speaking well of Seinfeld and the Simpsons. You'll stand a better chance with that line of argument as I believe one of these two has a sense of humour?

This is the same kind of gymnastics some do with scripture to their own hurt....   David Miller wrote: If you simply say that consultation with others is helpful, that is fine, but to say it is necessary crosses a line whereby faith becomes placed not just in Jesus Christ and the Spirit of Truth, but in the arm of the flesh, in teachers within our community.  Those who do such invariably get led into error.  God does not stand for it.  He will actually send deception in such situations and break up that community of believers.   Which wisdom has nothing to do with Jerusalem AD70 or the Roman Empire; it comes from 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12 which reads "And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish because they received not the love of the truth that they might be saved, and for this cause GOD shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie; that they all might be damned who believed not the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness..."  Now how can you argue with that?
