Subject: [TruthTalk] The door to
understanding
Lance obviously has a very active and prolific
imagination David. I have disagreed
with you about a point or two and have yet to
receive even a hint of "veiled threats
or warnings" Apparently we live in two
different dimensions (Lance and I, that is)

Veiled threats
and warnings? What are you talking about?

I believe that cd & DM may be confusing intimidation with authority.
I see
this more from DM with those less than veiled threats & warnings
directed at
those who dare to disagree with him.
Secondly, I never said that the group defines God. Such
is a lie and I am
tired of it.
cd: Do you remember my replying "What if they decide He is a calf? Others
do-I am not lying John-but I forgive you.
I do not care what you said. Do you understand that comment?
I am talking
about what I said, Dean. I am talking about what
you said of MY comment.
And nothing in MY comment spoke of a group
defining God. Any comment to
the contrary is a lie, at this
stage of the discussion. Plain and simple.
You think the
"church" is all about common folk and bosses, apparently.
The fact that the counsel of many is of no value to you as you read and
"study" the written word is more than obvious.

Dean !!! Would you p[lease slow down and proof read you
comments. Read
this out loud and you will see what I
mean. .
cd: Judy the most concern that prompted my below reply to John was his
earlier statement of the God is who the group decides He is-tie that to
his
lower statement and you have a cult.

John wrote:I see an avenue for continuing revelation, and if not
revelation, certainly interpretation or
understanding. If you will,
it is in the counsel of many

.Amen Dean,
JD I figure you were thinking of Proverbs 11:14b when you
wrote what you say
below ie: "in the multitude of
counsellors there is
safety" However the "counsellors" referred to in
Proverbs ARE those
of God's Word or
the Biblical text as you call it. They all say the
same thing by the same
Spirit and this is the counsel in which
we find
safety. Groupthink?? Anathema!!

cd: A very good definition of the birth of a cult John. No one
truth to live
by but group thinking-No standards to point our error if the
group agrees
with the present circumstance-I can see why your group don't
like preaching
such as David does-the one is dominated by the many as his
voice is lost in
the power of the mass.

counsel of many that our understanding of the biblical text is expanded

then, that the church continue
to meet in forums such as this
-- whether virtual or physical. A
community of Being
reveals Himself to a community of Believers and it is out
of this communal
reality that our understanding of God and His t houghts is
borne.
