Not By Works

I wasnt reading anything into it.

I was asking a question just like you did.

Why does it matter when she was born again?

If you ask the question why did you do so?
It's a leading question

Not imo it’s not..just a very innocent question...never got an answer though....again I don’t understand your thinking...same as you don’t understand mine.

Ok

He must increase and I must decrease...

That was John the baptist saying this.

We are to be fruitful that is God’s word...a lot of scripture on bearing fruit.

You have been given what the Fruits of the Spirit are. You have not given what you are calling the "fruits of the Spirit."

You are answering everything lately with fruits of the spirit. It is like you are going around in a circular motion.

just gotta love honest answers to honest questions!!!
we always have to 'dig' to find what is really real and what is 'un-real'=fake...
this is how we 'grow in wisdom and understanding, and the knowledge of God'...
our life-long-journey! most say; 'oh what a chore, it's just too much'...

I was reading a few pages back - am I remiss in hearing that some really believe that they 'cannot' LOSE
their calling-reward IF they blaspheme The Holy Spirit=Reject Yeshua??? = AFTER they THINK that they
have truly received The Holy Spirit??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
someone-anyone????????????????????????????

Jesus told the Pharisees there was no forgiveness for such an act. When it comes directly from the Source, how could anyone claim otherwise?

I am not being defensive...the only time you helped me was when I was agreeing with your teaching...then I watched a few of you and didn’t like what I saw..or what you taught.
I disagreed with some of your teaching,especially in regard to the fruit of the Spirit...then you turned against me...I will not follow what does not sit right in my spirit
I have the Lord to help me ascertain truth.

You don’t seem to acknowledge the fruits of the Spirit..that worries me....

You need to look back on your posts since the day you joined. They have been different from one agreement to another agreement. You have changed your beliefs from one doctrine to another. It is plain to see. The words are yours. No one has "turned against you" yet you have disagreed with your "x" on nearly every post lately from people who are plainly just trying to help you. When you first came on this site, you asked for help and people offered that whenever you asked for explanations of what they posted. I believe the confusion is with those of us who have given scripture to you, which is the Word of God, and not just our opinion.

We bear the fruits of the Spirit..very important to me.

When I look back at some of my posts,I’m disgusted at the way I spoke to some members...I have no excuse..but that was not the real me.

I got caught up in the nasty talk and it was nasty....I also noticed you were caught up in it with one particular member......I have noticed since @Oncefallen has called us all out on it ..you have changed your wording.

I also have changed...and I thank oncefallen for it.....I love the Lord and I want him to be proud of me like any Father.

My focus is on being more like Jesus...that I bear much fruit of the Holy Spirit.

It’s the interpretation of scripture by some that worries me.

I asked a simple question than NO ONE has answered, yet everyone desires to continue in their folly-debates -
how many who have been here for a very long time or a very short time, or a few minutes, or???,,,
is this beginning to sound like a revolving movie script to you??????????????????????
by the way, we're really addressing those who KNOW US and WE KNOW THEM, and then,
others who just naturally 'get things without having to go through the 'whole-sick-movie-thread-thing'???
just as an aside;
for those who GET THIS SITE;
our Heavenly Father Loves you very much and as the rushes & reeds blow in the wind,
He will bend and look at your face; but those who spoil, will be the spoil...

What’s your point?

As for my change of wording towards that person, I really haven't dealt with her anymore. I know her from a past site. My feelings about how she expresses her doctrine has not changed. I will always stand up to what I believe to be "false teaching, false doctrine."

It is the interpretation of some who are twisting scripture to fit their agenda that not only worries me but upsets me greatly. We are to study prayerfully, pray for discernment and wisdom from God as we devoutly search the Word of God for our instruction, answers, help and guidance.

You seem angry.

Sister, I think you've already apologized for this. That was very Christian of you and showed humility and the desire for reconciliation.

My suggestion to you is to avoid responding to it being brought back up, and note any who desire to hold it over your head and don't respond to it.

You did your part, they will either do their part, or not.

Recognize that "diablos" (referring to the devil) which means "accuser" will always be around to bring up past sins to remind us of them since he wants us to remain defeated by guilt. Christ has forgiven you, rest in that, and let the naysayers be naysayers.

Amen....I agree it worries me also...I am now going to get stuck into the word and ask for the above.

Enjoy your evening/day.

2 Timothy 1:12 - For I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.

I stand on the Word of God for my convictions and I stand on the fact that my salvation is once and for all from the day I accepted Jesus as My Lord and Savior. All the rest of it is a matter of growth, stability, and studying of the bible. I am not shaken by every whim and fancy words spewed forth from those who wish to convert the Word of God into a doctrine which makes them feel secure.

The only security for our souls is the salvation provided for us by Jesus Christ, the Only Way to eternal life.

His rest is the most beautiful gift , such healing comes from it...
He has showed me myself how I have behaved towards others , especially towards Judges , and I am grateful Judges forgave me...
The LORD was right , and I was wrong , He has set my paths straight again \0/
