Again, my experience trumps your misinterpretation.

Lol... you don't read too well. 1 Corinthians 13:8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. Only three gifts are mentioned, and nowhere in Scripture does it state that any...

If we follow your assertion to its logical conclusion, what we have is not evidence of Jesus' impeccability, but only of His identity. The testing does nothing to demonstrate that Jesus could not sin, but the text clearly tells us that He did not. Scripture says nothing of the bolded portions...

I see no need to give pearls to pigs.

I have several years on you, and I got married last year. Both she and I sensed that God was preparing us in previous years. If you're content being single, that's fine, but don't put limits on what God can do.

Firstly, welcome to the family of God! Secondly, welcome to CC! And thirdly, may the Lord give you peace, patience, and wisdom. It sounds like you have your head screwed on straight, though you are in an awkward situation. What happened prior to your salvation is past tense for you; it's the...

Those of us who have personally witnessed the gifts in operation can only dismiss your assertion as false.

One quick observation: the Greek prefix ek means "out" as used in ekklesia (called-out ones). It appears in the modern English words such as eccentric (outside the centre) and eclectic (outside the selection) which itself comes directly from the Greek word translated here as elect.

Scofield's annotations are part of the problem here. As to your closing question, the moderators will deal with heresy; they don't restrict discussion on debatable topics unless people start getting rude.

I have examined a fair bit of preterist material and have never encountered the (hogwash) idea that the present earth is the 'new earth'. If you have, my apologies.

Read Galatians, Acts 15, Romans, and Hebrews. Bear in mind Psalm 119:160 "The sum of thy word is truth."

Forgiving is like setting a broken bone. The healing is not immediate. Invite the Lord into the broken place in your heart and ask His restoration. Forgiving those who hurt you is only part of the problem. There's also the matter of repenting of your sin of trying to get something from others...

Instead of making ridiculous and unfounded accusations, offer something biblical, evidence-based, or at least edifying.

Sorry Clarence, you missed the boat on this one. It is hypocritical to redefine the word, claiming on one hand that prophecy no longer happens, and on the other that prophecy is mere proclamation. The cessationist must decide: either prophecy no longer happens, or it was never foretelling (which...

This is simply further evidence to the fact that Catholicism is not biblical Christianity.

Wow... that's a new way to present yourself as unteachable. What do you do to people who disagree with you in real life? From what Scripture verses do you draw these assertions? I don't see anything in my Bible teaching such. While we should be cautious about adopting the title of "prophet"...

Yes, some scholars are not believers. To make your point valid, you would have to demonstrate with evidence that the particular translators who chose "tempted" instead of "tested" were not believers. Your conjecture may be sensational, but it's empty. There's just one problem with this idea...

I agree with you on the point of the KJV's influence (right or wrong) on subsequent translators. I disagree on your statement, " one must not violate the truth because they do not have a good grasp of the subject matter being discussed within the context" as the people doing the translating are...

While your research material is interesting, the point you make is weak. Strong's concordance indicates the frequency with which that Greek word is translated into a given English word in the KJV; it does not indicate the likelihood of a particular English word being accurate. That the vast...

I get what you're saying. Unfortunately, it did not come across in your post. I would encourage you to include a comment clarifying that you are adding, as without it, you seem to be criticizing.
