Calvin did not invent the doctrines of grace

[FrankSophia]

I never said me. And you shouldn't ask questions you don't really want the answer to.

Your answer will reveal much about you, please feel free to be honest.

 

[Snacks]

And yet by God I comprehend the mysteries.

1 Corinthians 4:1

No you don’t. But you are entertaining.

 

[Cameron143]

Your answer will reveal much about you, please feel free to be honest.

I've been perfectly honest with. But you believe anyone who doesn't believe as you isn't spiritual. That shows me right there you lack discernment.

It is actually just discernment.

 

[FrankSophia]

No you don’t. But you are entertaining.

You have not tried to inquire, you only mock.

I do not understand why you engage divine things at all.

 

[Cameron143]

It is actually just discernment.

Only if you spell discernment h-u-b-r-i-s. But my aim isn't to belittle you and I wish you well. But until you learn a modicum of humility, you will not grow.
Perhaps that's why God has brought you here.

Humility as you think of it is just arrogance on its head, honesty is neither.

 

[FrankSophia]

Pilgrimshope is another who authentically has the Spirit here, in case you missed my acknowledgement.

 

[Cameron143]

Humility as you think of it is just arrogance on its head, honesty is neither.

Honestly I have no idea what you are saying. But it's easy enough to test one's humility if you are up for it.

 

[HeIsHere]

Ephesians 3:16-19

The problem is what I have surpasses knowledge and you haven't developed the capacity to understand that.

You are arrogant to think you can help me, God has given me everything available to a human.

You are either espousing Hermeticism, gnosticism or some strange combination.

Or you could just be very, very confused.

 

[FrankSophia]

Honestly I have no idea what you are saying. But it's easy enough to test one's humility if you are up for it.

What you're actually asking me to do is to conform to your expectations.

You aren't my God.

 

[FrankSophia]

You are either espousing Hermeticism, gnosticism or some strange combination.

Or you could just be very, very confused.

Nothing I am saying is contrary to what the New Testament actually says.

I find Hermeticism and Gnosticism foolish by comparison.

 

[FrankSophia]

My only issue is that Christians aren't actually following it.

 

[FrankSophia]

So many claim to be sola scriptura yet reject what scripture actually says because men told them it means something else.

 

[Cameron143]

What you're actually asking me to do is to conform to your expectations.

You aren't my God.

Humility is present in those conformed to the image of Christ.

 

[FrankSophia]

Humility is present in those conformed to the image of Christ.

The worldly self here has died, this is true humility.

You want the appearance of humility because truth offends you.

 

[HeIsHere]

Nothing I am saying is contrary to what the New Testament actually says.

I find Hermeticism and Gnosticism foolish by comparison.

Well you did not answer my previous question, so perhaps you should answer it and clear up some of the confusion on what you actually believe?

 

[Cameron143]

Humility is easily comprehended as it is experienced. When someone moves in humility it is both observed and blesses.

But our conversation is becoming unprofitable so may the Lord richly bless you.

 

[FrankSophia]

John 17:20-26

I believe that belief is a poor substitute for the reality.

 

[FrankSophia]

Humility is easily comprehended as it is experienced. When someone moves in humility it is both observed and blesses.

But our conversation is becoming unprofitable so may the Lord richly bless you.

Do you not think that faking ignorance to fulfill your desire that I appear humble would actually be manipulative?
