Subject: [TruthTalk] Lance's
suppositions
Let us suppose that David Miller and Judy Taylor have both understood and
articulated an incorrect understanding of the Nature of God therefore, by
extension, the Gospel. Let us suppose that Bill Taylor has apprehended and
articulated this more accurately.Or, let us suppose the exact opposite is the
case.
Let me get this straight .. we
are supposing that BT has articulated a correct understanding of the Nature of
God which would be along the lines of "perichoresis" and the ancient church
fathers - correct?
The SP discussion
BT and you are against this so
are we supposing that this would be incorrect?
The political discussion. Left/right, Iraq, the G8, forgiving third word
debt and, the like.
I read this as everyone else against the US which is
what comes from your computer... like the US is supposed to be God or
something and all other countries can be like "do nothing" street
preachers..
The Mormon 'gospel' or any other 'gospel' perceived by some to be a 'pseudo
gospel'.
What do you mean "perceived by
some?" There is just one gospel, just one faith, and just one baptism.
One Truth and a lot of lies.
The 'holiness' discussion which includes an understanding of
sanctification, perfection, growing in grace, 'spots & wrinkles' and, the
like.
Yes.....
Versions of the Bible to preferred over others.
Yes....
So-called plain folks vs experts. Some say 'just read the Bible, trust the
Spirit to show you the meaning then, do it'. Some say 'OK but, it's a little
more complicated than that'
etc., etc., etc.
It gets complicated when you
don't do it but try to find rationalizations and reasons to still be in but
get around it. Human nature does not like to obey as our two year old
grandson just told his Mom after being disciplines "But Momma I don't like to
obey"
People 'Amen' those who believe and teach as they do. On a good day,
they'll engage those who believe and teach differently. On a bad day they'll
ratchet things up a notch by resorting to 'conduct unbecoming.'
Not if they are listening to and
following the voice of the right shepherd. Bad behavior is just as
serious every day. We don't follow feelings.
So then, as to the subject: The Spirit of God will not change one mind/heart on TT as to any of the
above.'Smiley's' aside nobody's gonna move from one position to another.
You may speak for yourself Lance; if
you want to stay locked in your sin that is one thing. Please don't
include the rest of us. I reject your prophetic supposition as being from a
wrong source and antichrist in nature. This would only be true for those
who do not hate their sin and do not want to depart from it.
Who you are and, what you believe now is who you
will be and what you will believe when you die!
Another REJECT; a lie from the
adversary full of unbelief and void of faith which contradicts who I am in
Christ and where he is taking me. If this is true for your life Lance - I pity
you. But according to your faith so be it unto you.
The exception that proves the rule: John
Smithson.
