In order to refute my opinions you would have to come up with scripture that says the opposite of them.
And if you did that, I would change my opinion.

that is actually funny
I would like to see you change your absurdly high opinion of yourself but seeing that it is like that...well....prolly not

oh yes. of course I am.
but unlike you, not judging the heart...that is God's territory. I judge you to have a very high opinion of yourself as have others and swe keep telling you that, but I guess it is what it is
we are allowed to judge....but not the heart
and I, along with most who have responded to you, have refuted the mashup of scripture you post
you might consider yourself some special teacher, but you are just another bore who believes his word is god
That God is warning America that it needs to get it together. We are in Trouble (notice the capital "T").
And if we don't get it together soon it's going to get worse for us.
A child is the last warning...then it's serious consequences time.
Okay, but what does this have to do with Harris and Pelosi? I'm not seeing the connection to the thread topic.
I actually have quite a low opinion of myself.
I believe that my flesh is utterly sinful.
My only hope for the obedience that I proclaim, therefore, is that I walk according to the Spirit by letting Jesus live His life in me and through me (Galatians 2:20).
Use the quote feature and show any of my posts where I have pointed the finger and judged the heart of any individual here.
I'd be happy to do that, but it would take a while as there are so many examples.
I see you prefer being a jackdonkey to respectfully answering my question. Your "connection" is missing the ground wire of reality.
Ok, I am waiting (one example should suffice).
You have made a claim; now provide the evidence.
Okay, I can see where someone might think that I am judging their heart by such a statement.
When in reality, all I am doing is stating my belief about those who reject the kjv for what it says in other translations.
So, that it is not a judgment on any individual (or a pointing of the finger).
It is a basic statement about a certain type of person, that generally people of that type are of that type for a specific reason.
Any other examples?
And more insults....
Every time you have replied to me you have insulted me...
Meaning that reasonable conversation with you might not be possible...
You got one last shot!
Leadership isn't exactly you think it is.
You have been using the wrong definition.
In America we have this thing that God laughs at called separation of church and state...
It was explained that the Federal Government is the "state" and that state you reside within is the Church....by Thomas Jefferson.
But God still gets a chuckle out of it anyway because He doesn't recognize any such separation. Morality is either based on His decrees or Satan's. No wiggle room to it.
And just because I'm this country someone has a title of "Preacher" doesn't mean that they are a leader that is followed. I've seen many congregations that a preacher is tolerated but not followed. Other people in the congregation provide leadership....and people willingly follow them.
So suck it up Buttercup... you still are clueless on leadership and what is necessary to lead people. Especially since you have been blasting everyone in this thread... chasing away anyone who might once have wanted to follow you.
What is the congregational order? 1 Corinthians 11:3
"But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. "
Does it affect your inheritance? No. Romans 8:17
"And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together."
What was the devil's deed? Isaiah 14:13
"For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:"
Rewriting the congregational order is inspired by hubris not the Holy Spirit.
Perhaps you missed this:
The head of the woman is the man.
There is only one context where that can be true of singular persons: marriage.
