Your above self-set pre-condition added to our Bible discussion is like the Pharisees and Jews not allowing Jesus Christ to have His apostles/disciples accompanying Him and bear witness to His ministry of salvation through His atoning blood shed on the Cross. IOW,it's like they only allowed Jesus Christ to speak/comment/opine alone.

Fyi, I have been posting Bible commentaries/opinions by other mature Christians via links at RWI without any complaints from other posters there, eg from atheists, Buddhists, Christians, etc. Your complaint is the first.

Eg, .......

No la. I have not ignored ALL your Bible comments/opinions.

I have ignored a few of your Bible comments/opinions for various reasons, eg because they were false accusations that I believe in justification for salvation by works. Eg, .......

Thank God the wolf have shown his skin.. and thank you for re-sharing the replies I have posted.
Funny it feels like only from the last few replies when I have shake my dust of my feet at your doorstep, you become less repetitive.. and have more to reply.. So take some time.. go back to pg49.. READ the bible verses I replied you with.. UNDERSTAND it.. and REFLECT on your mistakes..
the ones you quoted here me.. and ALL the replies you ignored.. were consistently made of 2 segments
1. To answer the verses you used.. WITH THE BIBLE
2. To ask you to use ONLY the BIBLE.. and read it.. unfortunately as a Baptist.. you tend to filter and ignore sound doctrine..
Any layman would have the same conclusion on your disillusioned mind where you put assumptions and blasphemy..
Reflect and repent..

Hebrews 4:12,"For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."

And thank you for replying exactly what i've been consistently saying in ALL my replies.
"Fyi, I have been posting Bible commentaries/opinions by other mature Christians via links at RWI without any complaints from other posters there, eg from atheists, Buddhists, Christians, etc. Your complaint is the first."
2 Timothy 4:3,4,"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables."
See the pattern? 'Commentaries? Opinions?' of.. 'MATURE' Christians????
Turning away from the TRUTH Aka BIBLE?
Turned into fables?? Aka fiction/stories to enforce truth/precept? all this are dictionary definitions btw.. go fact check it..
Bible has made it very clear for your harderned heart.

1 John 4:1,"Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world."
2 Peter 2:1,"But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction."
2 Corinthians 11:13," For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ."
Good luck in hearing your pastors over the BIBLE..


The fact you seek acknowledgement from PEOPLE? from other RELIGIONS??? not the BIBLE??
2 Corinthians 6:14,"Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?"
1 Timothy 6:3,"If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;"
1 Timothy 6:4,"He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,"
1 Timothy 6:5,"Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself."



I dont know about RWI, but shame on the thread if no sound Biblical doctrine and Bible verses are being discussed, but rather OPINIONS and COMMENTARIES!!
I don't care if it's even Martin Luther, but if he cant preach from the BIBLE, and he preaches against what the BIBLE says.. he's a FALSE APOSTLE for all I care.. And that's what the BIBLE SAYS!

Again, your false (demonic) accusations, and also abusing the Bible to fit your own narrative/opinion against others. .......

REVELATION.12:10 = 10 Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. ...

12 Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time.”

Btw, what is your comment/opinion on the false doctrine of "Once saved, always saved" or OSAS, which 'unknown warrior' taught.?

Eh, why lipot me lah?! Not true meh?

So many denominations, as if only their interpretation comes frm the holey spirit. Everybody else is wrong except them

I attended a church for decades, the people thr were always speaking in tongues, holy laughter, interpreting prophecy, etc.

The gifts were oh, so normal. So common that you wouldn't bat an eye.

And then, when I attended another church, huhuhuhu, saw none of these. Not even 1 event! & I was attending it for 6 years!

They say they're a non-charismatic church.

Everybody thinks theirs is the one true faith. Only they are the proper protestants

And the old man upstairs (if he actually exist), hasn't bothered to even clear up the confusion amongst his followers.

You folks would do well to learn WHY thr r contradictions between the books & their writers, instead of arguing what James said, or what Paul said, ad infinitum.

https://isthatinthebible.wordpress.com/

god bless & peace out

either we have a spirit of learning and discussion, or a spirit of arguing and wanting to be right.

which one are you?

True to that.. and it's also important the truth is upheld..

Titus 1:9,"Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers. For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake."
Titus 1:13 ,"This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith"

Hopefully this @lurkingaround guy.. can start adapting learning than arguing.. im hoping I get to learn a thing or two from the Bible..

Sadly but true, You've just been to the wrong church and not been exposed to sound doctrine..
All 'religions' have sects.. Muslim, Buddhism, Hinduism..
I dont think among churches, or at least at the very high level, their faith is doubted.. The core believe is still the same.. the gospel...
But due to the Protestant movement.. a lot of catholic practices were carried forward..
and more importantly, more and more churches do not preach by the BIBLE anymore..

so why God allows? I guess, i admit on this, I'm guessing.. it is very consistently even in Old Testament, God allows Israel to go with what they wanted.. EG. they want a King, go ahead.. and we know there was NO ONE good king (even David screwed up).. But God works in such a way, despite that, Jesus was the last KING, KING OF KINGS to save us all..
Another guess, is cos as real as God is, Satan is real as well.. Satan's first attempt to human sin was to cast doubt to what GOD SAID... Satan's attempt to tempt Jesus? was also to cast doubt.. very consistent..
So Satan's attempts to modern world.. is ALSO to cast DOUBT on GOD'S WORD! so that's why.. go attend a church that really depend on the Bible.. if you need recommendations, i can share some..


The above have bible verse references and I wont go into it for sake of conversation..

I personally dont believe in speaking in tongues, holy laughter, etc.. so called gifts..
the purpose is not consistent to what the Bible say..
but then again, this opens a huge debate.. feel free for anyone to chime in (FROM THE BIBLE) on why those so called gifts are real..

This post has been edited by zanness: Aug 1 2024, 09:28 AM

those gift during time of christ and apostle as recorded in bible are real

the modern one though, let say just take it with huge sack of salts

I agree.. all the miracles by Jesus and the disciples are real..and has a record..
but despite that , we should be mindful Bible never say God cant do miracles...
If God willing, miracles MAY happen.. just that.. for the churches to somewhat commercialize it is a shame..

.
= to me, a few of your Bible comments/opinions (per page) are from ignorance, hence should be ignored.

Let's compare why you ignored my Bible comment/opinion that strongly disproved your false (demonic) and presumptuous Bible comment/opinion that "true" Christians can never ever lose the indwelling Holy Spirit = can never ever be demon-possessed = can never ever lose faith in Christ or lose salvation.
....... Those who have such a false belief often speak as if they are like God and/or are Omni-present and Omniscient, eg like they can time travel between OT and NT times and have the eyes of God - see 2THESS.2:1-12 = The Great Apostasy.
.......

I agree 75%.
.
Bible history says that God's miracles, signs and wonders "exploded" during the time of Moses and Joshua when the nation of Judah and God's Law got established but after that they became rare or only happened once in a blue moon.
....... Similarly, God's miracles, signs and wonders "exploded" during the time of Jesus Christ and His apostles when God's salvation unto the kingdom of heaven got established and after that they became rare.

So,the "explosion of miracles" of Pentecostalism and neo-Pentecostalism/Charismatics from the early 1900 onward, are not biblical or not godly. They are demonic.?
.

P S - Like how the Agong and POTUS can pardon reformed convicted criminals suffering in prison, God/Jesus has the power/authority to forgive the intentional sins of repentant sinners suffering the curses of God by miraculously healing or exorcising them. The miraculously healing of non-sinners (eg who were borned deformed or crippled) by Jesus does not disprove this fact, eg the Agong can also do charity to non-prisoners.

All were BIBLE VERSES! Lols.. comments? Opinions? you need a dictionary.. those verses are self explanatory even without me putting words..
Still.. all ignored.. reasons its the BIBLE? highlight which is an opinion or comment? Let's see them together if its truly a 'comment' as you so claim.

Please see in the LIST OF IGNORANCE you have.. and re-read them ..
When you quoted this, I told you none says you lose the Holy Spirit. YOU OPINONATED SO! and for your benefit (in case you lack understanding and reading), please dont ignore the verses YOU YOURSELF shared

Did it say you lose the Holy Spirit?
John 14:26, "But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you"

Did it say you lose the Holy Spirit?
Acts 1:4,"And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me."
Acts 1:8,"But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth."

Did it say you lose the Holy Spirit?
1 Corinthians 12:4,"Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit"
Hebrews 2:4,"God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?"

Don't get me wrong. I agree that's the HOLY SPIRIT.. what I think you're delusional, is you copy and paste, and come to your own conclusions without even READING the verses!

2 Timothy 1:13? I told you and explained to you already. Did you read? nevermind, ill reshare it..
(To your question of 'Why Fear?', READ IT, its not an OPINION.. its the BIBLE!)
2 Timothy 1:7,8,"For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;"
(READ IT! What did the Bible say? its English so im not going to define the words cos its self explanatory.)
2 Timothy 1:9,"Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,"
UNDERSTAND PLEASE! "....which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began"
Did it say you lose the Holy Spirit?
You are already CHOSEN ! and as usual, cherry picking the bible and not reading it entirely..
2 Timothy 1:13,14,"Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us."
What does it say?
Hold fast the form of sound words
committed unto thee
keep by the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us

So you wanna add a .. YOU LOSE YOUR HOLY SPIRIT? your OPINION? your DOCTRINE????


Matthew 10:32
My goodness.. why do you keep IGNORING the BIBLE?
Go look at item 10 on the IGNORANCES..
MATTHEW 10:32,".. DENY.."
Deny = arnēsomai = ἀρνήσομαι
Hello? ITS THE BIBLE! ITS THE ORIGINAL GREEK LANGUAGE!!
and ἀρνήσομαι or arnēsomai, or back in the KJV times the word DENY, is DISOWN!
HELLO? BIBLE!! Its like you referring to a dictionary.. not an opinion.. yours is.. this is FACT..


Revelation 20, 1 Thesallonians 4:16-17.
I told you.. NATIONS! you call them as CHRISTIANS.. and say they lose faith?
Who's putting in words into the Bible..

Revelations 13:11-18, 14:9,
Mark of the beast. wont be saved. thats a FACT..
Bible didnt mention saved Christians would receive the mark.. thats ALSO a FACT..
Matthew 24:15,"When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)"
This will be a "sequel" to how most of the apostles of Christ were martyred for not obeying the Imperial decree to worship the Roman Emperor or his statue as God - MATTHEW.24:15.
This.. is YOUR OPINION.. "how most of the apostles of Christ "

Blasphemy.
Disciples asking Jesus about end of the world
Matthew 24:3," And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?"
Context of the end of world type of people
Matthew 24:11,"And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many."
Hope for PEOPLE to be saved; Still didnt mention losing of faith FYI..
Matthew 24:13,"But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved."
Who it was preached to!
Matthew 24:14,"And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come."
Matthew 24:15,"When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)"

So you have effectively reworded Matthew 24:14? suddenly ,"...in all the world..." becomes CHRISTIANS?
Matthew 24:15 is talking about the world.. WHOSO READETH, LET HIM UNDERSTAND.. READ ! PLEASE !

Why not just simplify things by specifying which church both of you go to and then we can start from there rather than spamming the entire thread with copy & paste?

Remind me again where did I ignore you?
My record is clear, I dont SHY away from the Bible..

"can never ever be demon-possessed = can never ever lose faith in Christ or lose salvation."
"often speak as if they are like God and/or are Omni-present and Omniscient"
I will ONLY use the BIBLE.. I dont speak like God, but i quote what GOD says.. and its sad if you dont read what the BIBLE says..
the one source of truth is the BIBLE and the very least you should do is to meditate and study it.. to show yourself true..
2 Thessalonians 2:1-12 ? (Please , read the BIBLE! do you even understand what you are quoting?? )
v5-6,"Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time."
v8-9,"And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,"
v11-12,"And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness."

Read... v5-6 says? ,".... he might be revealed in his time" What does it mean??
v8-9,".. Wicked be revealed,... Even him, whose coming is afer the working of Satan.." Who is the BIBLE talking about??

and for your information.. please dont ignore..
2 Thessalonians 2:16,"Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace,"

READ! ,".. EVERLASTING CONSOLATION AND GOOD HOPE THROUGH GRACE," Go read and find your bible verses.. google it if you need to.. Who and what is this CONSOLATION?? What is good hope and by grace? and DONT IGNORE "...EVERLASTING.."

As usual, consistently, when you try to put in Bible verses.. somehow the BIBLE itself shows you the truth..
