Are you a devil's advocate?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I am not a Devil's Advocate.
I believe in God that said although he is using man's words but different in meaning. Shall I say Man's Words but Heavenly Meaning.
ISAIAH 55:8-9
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and
my thoughts than your thoughts.
If we use our thoughts in reading the Words of God, then Devil is not a liar and Murderer. What come up is God is the Liar and the Murderer.
But if we humble ourselves (means not to use our own understanding in reading the words of God) God will send us A Divine Revelation and explain to us that the Devil is a Liar and a Murderer.
This is why God gave us the warning:
PROVERBS 3:5
5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your
own understanding;
Look at the Jews in the New Testament.
They use their thoughts in listening Jesus words instead of humbling themselves.
They thought that Jesus is referring to Literal Physical Temple.
JOHN 2:19-21
19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this
temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 Then said the Jews,
Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
21 But he spake of the
temple of his body.
Because the Jews leaned in their own understanding they believe Jesus is a Liar.
MATTHEW 27:40
40 And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.
