Judy, I will point out that this is typical of
your tendency to misread or distort. I did not say that Christ
cannot live without us, and I don't think you
truly believe that I did.
There you go accusing me of evil
motives. You ppl sure do a lot of accusing. You
wrote:
We are the weak link in the
chain.
To the extent we are able to
live out our reconciliation to God at all, it is because of Christ in us.
But
it is not Christ without us who lives.
Since you believe I have it wrong - then would
you please explain - what is the chain
and why the last line - what does it
mean?
In another post today, you wrote:
Any doctrine that does
not lead ppl professing Christ into godliness and holiness is a doctrine of devils.
Doctrines cannot lead people into godliness and
holiness, so I guess all of them are from the devil.
Sure they can and they do Debbie; they lead
you in one direction or another just like a road map according to
whether they are the truth or the lie. What you believe with regard to Christ is
important. God does not bless
ignorance.
But the doctrine you are slamming has no conflict
with encouraging people to live godly and holy lives,
nor does it demotivate people. On the contrary
(as I've said numerous times) it suggests a different and
powerful motivation.
What doctrine do you think I am
"slamming"? We've been discussing several.

Can you explain to me how and why
you see this as such a profound truth Terry?
What is the chain? Can it be seen in
scripture and who says Christ can not live without us?
If God can make rocks cry out - what
are his limitations? jt

This is without doubt the most profound truth
stated here today. Possibly, for all time.
