Dear forum please listen, "YourTruthGod" is trying to mislead the friends of decon by saying that; decon has had a "special revelation" when he was a young child but that is nothing but a "bold face lie" and a misrepresentation of what actually happened when decon was a young child. The fact is "Decontroversal" our beloved friend "never, never, never, had a special revelation." The reason is "YourTruthGod" is trying to deflect the fact that in his post below he claims that he does receive revelations from God.

The fact remains; Decontroversal has never received special revelation from God however YourTruthGod has received special revelation from God but he is trying to deny the fact of this truth.
amen...appreciate the stance bro..........and agree 100% and ten hahha

So what is your stance about lying to the Holy Spirit?
Did you agree to this post below by Budman or not?

The underlined in your first sentence is a lie SEOCHE........and does nothing but devalue what you have to say even further than it has already fallen...NO honesty, NO integrity, False accusations and straight up lies...........seems to be your modus operandi

FOLKS and any and all that read the above drivel....NO ONE has done any such thing with the grace of GOD.....this is as false as it comes and the poster that stated this constantly uses deception on this site in an attempt to bring down those that believe and teach a salvation based upon grace through faith which relies 100% on Christ, his work, his power.....do not believe the deceptive lies put out by this poster called Argueless
 
Yes, they were saved. The Bible says all who were there were believers. As I've said many times, God does chastise His children, even to the point of taking them home, but they can never be lost.

At the moment of conversion, one is saved forever. Even if they walk away later. They couldn't go to hell if they tried. If salvation is truly a gift, and grace actually unmerited, this has to be so.
 
Hi Hevosmies, I pray you can resolve some of the spiritual issues you talked about on the "Speaking in Tongues" thread. I know you will be missed here by many.

Vaya con Dios,



I will come too, it is time to post my 12 page essay on the dangers of speaking in tongues. The modern day speaking in tongues is totally different than when the Apostles spoke in TONGUES.

Now I have done a far bit of studying why Biblical “tongues” (in Greek - ‘glossa’, but also ‘dialektos’) as referenced particularly in Acts and Corinthians is to always be translated and understood as real language(s), not ecstatic utterances.

However, if we can derail the thread a bit I would like to know the dangers. I find that very interesting!!

I'm totally on your side UG as long as the OP does not object to VCO posting his essay on "The Dangers of Speaking in Tongues" or the subject doesn't get out of hand. I say "make us teachable students of God's word and go for it if the Lord wills....:)

decontroversal had something revealed to him. Both of you have major problems calling people liars when they are not.
 
Cya folks. im abandoning ship. (thats slang for, logging out and you know, not loggin back in again)

Was good talking with yall. :cool:

God bless you all and keep you
Maybe while you are gone you will consider what I said and try it. What do you have to lose? What will it hurt?
 
I used to belong to another site where trolls abounded. This site is filled with some of them I believe
Can't you make a righteous judgment at all? Do trolls do what you do, or are they careful not to speak insults and they give many scriptures and explanations, as I do?
 
decontroversal had something revealed to him. <<< (forum this is a bold face lie). Both of you have major problems calling people liars when they are not.
I am finished speaking to you. You are a "Charlatan", a person falsely claiming to have a "special knowledge" or skill; a fraud. No one cares or trusts anything you have to say.
 
... At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure. Matthew 11:25-26

...And he said: “I tell you the truth, UNLESS you change and BECOME LIKE LITTLE CHILDREN, YOU WILL NEVER ENTER THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN. Therefore, whoever HUMBLES HIMSELF like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. “And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me. But IF ANYONE CAUSES ONE OF THESE LITTLE ONES WHO BELIEVE IN ME TO SIN, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. “Woe to the world because of the things that CAUSE PEOPLE TO SIN! Such things must come, but WOE TO THE MAN THROUGH WHOM THEY COME! If your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life maimed or crippled than to have two hands or two feet and be THROWN INTO ETERNAL FIRE. And if your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be THROWN INTO THE FIRE OF HELL. Matthew 18:3-9

DO NOT PROVOKE THIS MAN @YourTruthGod and therefore cause him to sin by being provoked into your evil schemings.

...Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Let us not become CONCEITED, PROVOKING and ENVYING each other. Galatians 5:25-26

...IF ANYONE TEACHES FALSE DOCTRINES and does not agree to the sound instruction of our Lord Jesus Christ and to godly teaching, he is CONCEITED and UNDERSTANDS NOTHING. He has an unhealthy interest in CONTROVERSIES and QUARRELS ABOUT WORDS that result in envy, strife, MALICIOUS TALK, EVIL SUSPICIONS and CONSTANT FRICTION between men of corrupt mind, who have been ROBBED OF THE TRUTH and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain. 1 Timothy 6:3-5

...Anyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that NO MURDERER HAS ETERNAL LIFE IN HIM. 1 John 3:15

Could you clarify?
