seems to me that God called me a donkey.

For vain man would be wise, though man be born a wild ass's colt.
(Job 11:12)

in fact it seems like the Bible says we're all asses, zoomorphistically speaking. by birth.

No God does not deal in unknowns but man whom God chooses to reveal certain things to or not ,does deal in unknowns. We are called to seek "Seek and you shall find , knock and the door will be opened". If all was known to us as to God we would not be called to seek and that is what Devin seems to be doing as well as others here who may not be all knowing as you. Maybe we missed the true Messiah? NOT! You are in for a rude awakening sleeping as you are on the spiritual impact God and yes satan can have on this earth by manipulating the physical. STILL WONDERING WHAT DEVIN WAS UPSET ABOUT????????
You seem to be full of all sorts of assumptions and accusations about me and what I believe or know...........very mouthy as well

I never said that it was about a donkey. I posted that picture because Jewel jokingly said she wanted to see a talking donkey. What is your problem?? Devin saw a goat shaped cloud, so what? It was a cloud, nothing more. And he shouldn't attribute more to it than that.
I thought the donkey thing was funny! LOL! Timing and state of mind .......

Be careful Blue or FirstKNOWALLbyhim will start judging your motives, who you are, what you know, who you know with all sorts of assumptions and accusations.....
That's okay.. Anyone on here who knows me at all, knows what I believe in, what I stand for, what I DON'T stand for (LOL) and whatever else. I need only GOD'S approval, not man's (or woman's).. :)

No assumptions, I read what you say, if the shoe fits as they say or when you make your bed lie in it. Love 'Cliches'. I am assuming nothing. Assumption is based upon limited evidence . I have all the evidence I need concerning you- YOUR WORDS! I am speaking in exacts , no implying .......... based solely upon being able to read. Literacy has done wonders for man. You are the one who is mouthy, and judgemental if I may add and based on not liking- hearing the truth. I have only spoken that. Mouthing off at truth, is like an old dog who can not learn new tricks. Keep young by always allowing God to judge and never judge upon assumptions but what is available in all evidence. God Bless!

No one is denying that. You are denying mindset and timing sometimes things are providence.
I haven't said whether it was providence or not. So I don't know where you're getting that from. I'm not denying anything. If he feels that God called him a goat, then that's between him and God.. God calls us SHEEP, not GOATS. :)

when I was at the end of my rope, when I laid in my bed and looked-up out of my window in my misery,
I saw so many demonic images in the clouds - they terrified me and I had to look away real fast -
they were real, for I was living an unreal life at that time of my life, an horrible time, hence I was seeing
the 'real horrible world' and what I had to deal with...

long story short - I started seeking God, whom I had met in my early childhood, and He reached out
His hand and from then He began to 'pull me out of this wicked-world, '30's) and here I am now, '70';s)
delivered from the power of satan and his wily-deceptive ways, and am assured that I can make a difference
only because He has enlightened me of His Holy Love/Grace/Sacrifice...
this is my/our life now, completely dedicated to Him in every breath we take...

Romans 15:14
And I myself also am persuaded concerning you my brothers, that you yourselves are also full of goodness, being filled with all knowledge, and being able to admonish one another.
Admonish:
warn or reprimand someone firmly. (Chastise, chide, reprove)
advise or urge (someone) earnestly.
warn (someone) of something to be avoided.

I simply used your words against you. I have not unjustly judged anyone you did.
Are you a wise man or a mocker? Perhaps I thought to highly of you, in correcting you?

The Way of Wisdom Proverbs 9:7-9
…7He who corrects a mocker will bring shame on himself; he who rebukes a wicked man will be tainted. 8Do not rebuke a mocker or he will hate you; rebuke a wise man, and he will love you. 9Instruct a wise man, and he will be wiser still; teach a righteous man, and he will increase his learning.…
Admonishment is a blessing, that is why I say God Bless! No hypocrisy , I do not contradict myself or scripture. As blueladybug said: "anyone who knows me- I believe in what I stand for and I stand for what I believe" I do not stand for condemning without eveidence nor mocking another's spiritual plight, nor brush all peoples experiences as superstitious nonsense without proof. GOD BLESS!

I too did not say whether it was God or not. I simply said not enough evidence to judge as some have. As for sheep or goats I gave my opinion about that many post ago. God Bless!

Find All In The Heart...

Would it hurt if I said you don't know how to hear God yet... And you say there is no way God can speak to people hmmm...
It depends. If it was genuine correction to help me understand then no it would not hurt I would be thankful, we cannot ever learn if we are not willing to receive correction. However like with anything in life it all begins and ends with the motive of the heart, there is a difference between giving brotherly correction and simply downgrading another believer. Is that what you think I did?

You have done nothing of the sort.....nice try, but no cigar.....and you are not the Apostle Paul, nor do I represent the assembly that was at ROME....nor are you my pastor, mentor or judge! AND everything I said was biblical....

a. Do not spiritualize everything
b. Study the bible
c. If of God it would be obvious
d. It was a cloud and not necessarily of God or Satan

and all you have been is judgmental, mouthy and then try to be spiritual by saying God bless....so....like the liberal democrats....spin it how ever you choose to spin it....
