Playing the victim seems to be a common tactic for some. If you are the producer of the Spirits good fruit, as you said in that post, that would make you God. Nice try though. Well, not really.
A devil worshiper who loves his own family, is it God in him that causes him to love his family and children or something that he desires to do himself?
A devil worshiper has compassion on a person who is hurt and helps that person, is it God in that person that caused that devil worshiper to help the other person?
You seem to not understand the concept of free will, which is without God or satan. Free will is the choice we make. God does not MAKE anyone do anything. satan does not MAKE anyone do anything. We choose who we will obey and who we will serve.
You say above if it is me that chooses to do good fruit, that makes me God. What then, if a devil worshiper chooses to do good fruit, that makes him God too? You do error not understanding the Truth.
Why would Jesus COMMAND us to "Love One Another" if Loving one another was something that He did in the first place? He COMMANDED us to Love One Another, because Jesus knows the Truth, we choose to either Love or to NOT Love. It is called Free Will.
If then i help that lady across the street, did i do that because God Made me do it? Did He force me to Love? i chose to help the lady across the Street, because the lady needed help across the street. i choose to give to charities, not because God makes me give to charities, but because they are in need of money that i have. i feed the hungry, not because God makes me, or forces, or causes, me to do that, i do that because they are hungry and i have the means to help them. But because i say i choose to do good things, you accuse me of being God? Seriously?
The Question is why are YOU choosing not to have good works? Know you not that it is written it is works that make Faith Perfect. But if i teach what Scriptures teach look how fast the stones are thrown by those who believe Faith ONLY is enough. All the while accusing me of teaching Works ONLY belief. Which i have NEVER done. i teach what Scriptures teach Faith + Works. They go hand in hand, not one without the other. But who will refuse to believe that? Why the Faith ONLY believers is who. And you can see how they fight against me, just read the things they say to me, and you can see plainly who is Loving who.
Who are they that will fight against {Faith + Works}? Works ONLY believers will fight against that because it includes Faith. Faith ONLY believers will fight against that because it includes Works. Neither Know or believe plain Scriptures.
Jas_2:22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?
According to this verse, HOW is Faith made perfect? By and through Works. Who will not believe this verse? Faith ONLY believers and also Works ONLY believers. Who does believe this Holy Scripture? Those who know that Faith and Works go hand in hand, not one without the other.
Faith ONLY believers are those branches grafted into the Good Tree, but has no Good fruits.
Works ONLY believers produce Many Good fruits but they are not attached to the Good Tree.
True Christian believers are those branches grafted into the Good Tree, and they produce much Good fruits unto the Lord. Who will disagree with that statement but those who believe Faith ONLY and also those who believe Works ONLY will not believe that verse, they will have to change that verse to mean something other than what it says, in order to hold on to their own belief what they THINK the TRUTH is. Woe to the Faith ONLY believers and Woe to the Works ONLY believers, Both of these are the Goats in the Parable of the Sheep and the Goats. Read it, which one are you?
