It's hard to accept TRUTH after being "rooted and grounded" in UNTRUTHS for so long! GOD "revealed" these TRUTHS and all I ask is that you "Search the scriptures to see if these are so" (Acts 17:11) but "Only GOD can draw" (Jn 6:44).
false accusation

i am only rooted in Christ

i forgive you

but you are in major error

John 3:16 - For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
GOD didn't "love the [unrighteous] world"

John 17:9 "I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given ME; for they are thine."

Incognito, just to clarify; A few pages back you said true believers can be bitten by poisonous snakes and they won't be harmed?

Is that what you believe?

Revelation 3:1-6 To the Church in Sardis “To the angel of the church in Sardis write: These are the words of him who holds the seven spirits of God and the seven stars. I know your deeds; you have a reputation of being alive, but YOU ARE DEAD. Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I HAVE NOT FOUND YOUR DEEDS COMPLETE IN THE SIGHT OF MY GOD. Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; OBEY IT, AND REPENT. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you. Yet you have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their clothes. They will walk with me, dressed in white, for THEY ARE WORTHY. He who overcomes will, like them, be dressed in white. I WILL NEVER BLOT OUT HIS NAME FROM THE BOOK OF LIFE, but will acknowledge his name before my Father and his angels. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

I believe those who have NO "POWER" [like you] that HE mentioned in Acts 1:8 are the ones "DEAD." So that applies to YOU!

Don't try and make this a "snake" thing! I see you Satan (Hebrews 5:14)!

GOD SAID it happened to Paul and "no harm came to him" (Acts 28:3-5) and I BELIEVE.

1 John 2:19
19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.


romans 1
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

Hebrews 10:39
39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

Y'all are just quoting all of these scriptures and they don't even APPLY TO YOU! The Epistles are for those who are "members of the body of Christ" (I Corinthians 12) who have been Holy Spirit baptized with "CONFORMATION" (Mk 16:16-20) and NOT YOU ALL!

lol i have responded in love

if i bold and enlarge certain words

its to highlight points people have missed

im on a touch screen phone

so even size 7 is rather small


maybe on a computer its different?


and yes

i agree you avoid the truth of what it means to be saved

why do people respond to that person. He is an instigator. He tried to back DC in a corner based on something stupid. now he is attacking you.

She yells every word (maybe not on purpose though) . You highlight certain words for emphasis, HUGE difference.

Did you just call me Satan?

And it was a simple question: Do you believe a born again believer can be bitten by a poisonous snake and no harm will come to him.

Yes or no?
