Then you're not a real person, for everybody share frustrations in life, saved or not. I live in a fleshly body, therefore I get frustrated.

My so-called broad brush painting is believing God's word & whoever rebels from His word is a rebel. No spiritual rebel has a place in the Kingdom of God.
Now saying some rebelling sinners go to Heaven & others to Hell would be real broad brush painting, don't you think? Selah.

yeah ok you are not David or some other famous OT person so you selah yourself

no...you are broad brush painting when you generalize and think everyone is on board with you

you are also not a prophet and do not have the ability to call anyone here a rebel...not even a racoon

no, I don't think like you so selah that as well. if you want to be part of a 224 car pileup, you go right ahead

Are you Catholic? I used to be Catholic. I gave it up because of things like this. But I'm not hostile to Catholics.
I know you are Christian and believe in Jesus. That's the main thing.
Please just focus on him and your relationship to Father God through him.

Baiting those from Protestant denominations with a deified Mary is only going to cause tension. :oops:
We already know that from centuries of infighting.
The Prossies believe all sorts of things about Catholics that aren't true. This kind of indtroduction feeds that.

In a place like this, can we possibly stick to areas of conversation that we have in common?
The time is getting late for all of us.

Well spoken response outstanding in its content.

My insanity lost his marbles at the toy store one day and unfortunately another child took them home.
When we went to the Tile Store to pick out a new kitchen counter top, he thought he had been raptured and gone to Heaven.
Upon closer inspection he found out that his marbles were flattened out and cut into squares.
Disallusioned and fretful he took off his new glorified body and went back to earth where he now protests outside a Marble Quarry.

Moral of the story - Rolling Stones are sought after but not Found - Square and belongs down here.

If you think that's crazy you haven't met his sister.

This is truly wild, crazy, and amusing. His sister must be one crazy cookie. :)

Bethel is part of the body of Christ? Bill Johnson, who teaches grave sucking, claims gold dust fell in his "church", teaches the prosperity gospel, member of the NAR, is a christian? And you thought I was judging harshly?
Click to expand...


oh dear...I think I will address this also

I do have to answer with a question though, because you need to think a little deeper....anyone can skip rocks over the surface of a calm body of water. but the water is not always calm

do you judge righteously or do you judge through the filter of your own preconceived notions of God's big stamp of approval on all that you do? that's not the question though.

this is:

is everyone in Bethel, Hillsong, Elevation Church, IHOP, or sundry other folks who go to church without asking you first, going to hell?

think about that and think of God's ability to keep those who are His and think about the fact you do not decide who is worthy of salvation or not and also kindly remember you do not have the ability to look on the heart and probably should examine your own as scripture advises us to do.

oh...I never thought you were judging harshly. it sounded more like you thought you could

Not only are we not on the same page, we're not even in the same book.

I don't believe God speaks extra-Biblically. So in my view, all so-called prophets who claim to have a message directly from God, whether they come to pass or not, are false. We don't need prophets to give us messages form God, we have the scriptures; that's His message to us.

You said a few posts back (#50) that false prophets ruin the testimony of true prophets; I'm saying all prophets—in the sense you seem to mean prophet—are false.

PEACE - I AGREE with your statement " I don't believe God speaks extra Biblically." = 100% TRUTH

The Revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ completed His Word = the Holy Scriptures = Complete and needing nothing.

To verify this the LORD has given us an Eternal Commandment: Deuteronomy 4:1-2 , Proverbs 30:5-6 , Revelation 22:18 -19

Now, O Israel, listen to the statutes and the judgments which I teach you to observe, that you may live, and go in and possess the land which the Lord God of your fathers is giving you. 2You shall not add to the word which I command you, nor take from it,

Every word of God is pure;
He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him.
Do not add to His words,
Lest He rebuke you, and you be found a liar.

For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book; 19and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

SERIOUS Judgment awaits those who break this Eternal Commandment of the LORD, which the LORD repeated throughout Scripture.

When we declare the Lord is Coming Again = We Prophesy
When we declare there is Judgment at the Mercy Seat for His Sons = We Prophesy
When we declare there is Judgment coming for those not in Christ = We Prophesy
When we bare witness to the Gospel = We Prophesy
When we confess our sins and believe He is faithful and Just to forgive us and cleanse us = We Prophesy
When we declare to the Jew their Messiah has Come and is Coming Again = We Prophesy to the Jew
When we are martyred for our witness and obedience to Christ = Our Blood Cries Out in Prophesy
 
If Mary was a perpetual virgin, we wouldn't have the book of James in the New Testament.

Written by James the half-brother of Jesus, not James who was one of the 12 disciples (and John's brother).

Rev 12 is speaking of Israel. Not Mary. Mary did
Not flea to the wilderness after Christ was taken in fear of satan. Jesus til John to take care of her as his mother. John stated in Jerusalem
Click to expand...

Nor was Israel a woman who gave birth to Jesus! And for that matter I didn't notice Israel fleeing to the wilderness in fear of Satan either. Nor are the Israel's children "those who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus" as referenced in verse 17. Israel's children actively reject Jesus and certainly don't keep the commandments. In fact Israel's children were the ones being used by Satan to kill Christians. I think it's absurd to see Rev12 as anyone but Mary. The only way to see it otherwise is if you're trying to bend scripture to something you desperately want it to mean.
