We would appear to agree wholeheartedly, Dean.
Now, send the same message to Judy, DM, Gary and.........wait a second...has
everyone else fled? Hmmm, one wonders as to whether they fled 'cause, on
matters of some import, they 'read' the Bible differently?
cd: Most were chased
off by others-one clashed with the law and lost-one has yet to be
decided:-)
Perhaps DM should pull the plug on TT so as not
to encourage, what did you call it, 'a doctrine of complexity that even a
collA(e sp)ge graduate would fall short (of) understanding and you or SATAN
has placed people around yourself that (are) is supporting this complex
error."? You would, I trust Dean, allege the same of Judy, David and Gary,
would you not?
cd: No TT should remain Lance-if
the work wasn't being done here the war would not be fought on this level
Lance. Satan is not divided and only resists truth. Here he fights hard
against us-so there also must be a gain.
By the way Dean, if a child can understand it
then, would you say that Judy doesn't need her 'study helps' and DM doesn't
require skills in ancient languages, logic etc.?
cd: Because there is a difference between
milk and meat-A child grows great on milk but in time if it isn't fed meat
it cannot survive. Milk is freely given to all by Jesus Christ but meat is a
entirely different matter. It must be sought for-asked about-and greatly
desired and only then given- if one is seeking in the right
direction-ask the right person and desire for the right reasons. The
comments about You/Satan putting others around you for your harm is true,
Lance-and was in no way meant to offend you. I am here to help you not mock
you-hope you see that.

Dean says to Lance "their is only ONE
TRUTH...the Bible wording supports OUR TRUTH" Further, "I have
tried to teach you...(the Bible truth, the One truth, our truth..
concerning sin)"
I posted the course notes on Christology
for you to see the diversity, Dean. In Mad Magazine it was Spy vs Spy
whereas on TT, in the churches and, in life it is ideaology vs
ideaology, religion vs religion, belief vs belief and, yes Dean, even
SCRIPTURE VS SCRIPTURE.
I suggest that you live out that which you
believe God has shown you.
cd: I think this is good
advice and I am trying to do just that Lance. My advice to you is to
forget all the different "isms" in these other views as they have IMO
lead you into confusion.God wrote in a language so simple that even a
child could understand-what you hold for truth is a doctrine of
complexity that even a collage graduate would fall short
understanding-and you or Satan has placed people around yourself
that is supporting this complex error. Simply read the Bible for your
self and draw you own conclusions from those written words and-as you
say live by those
words-respectfully.

Look 'em up. I'm for the former and,
agin' the latter. It seems to me that each believes their
understanding of the truth to be THE understanding of the
truth. Each attempts to demonstrate the foregoing by employing means
generally acceptable to all participants. When arriving at an
impasse, persons just agree to disagree or, think of those
with whom they disagree as unwilling/unable to SEE their (read THE)
TRUTH. Persons also testify to the presence of their truth in their
lives. Persons suggest some variation on
illumination/enlightenment/Divine confirmation of their
truth.
cd:The problem I
see with your reasoning Lance - Respectfully- is that the Bible
wording supports our truth (ie. And there is only one truth). We can
back up what we say with the word of God with harmony through the
entire Bible- these others you mentioned cannot. I have tried
to teach you about sin and the consequences of sin even on a
believer. Can you use the Bible to teach me once saved always
saved?
How and, in what ways have I
mischaracterized TT since its
inception?
