"Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. 16 By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17 Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them. (Matthew 7:15-20)

By their works you shall know them, but beware that you are not given to personal opinion, thinking you stand in truth, know the truth, know him!

Everything Biggie posted was Scripture, not personal opinion. The Truth is clearly defined in the Bible.

Personal opinion's are not necessary, nor appreciated.

These are the instructions the bible gives. As the bible also states, Yes, just as you can identify a tree by its fruit, so you can identify people by their actions. “Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. all things should be done by the will of the Father, so that there be no personal opinion. How can we debate the word? In eliminateing personal opinion, what we say and do, should always line up with thethe truth.

My own feeling is that anyone who calls himself a prophet is guilty of the sin of pride.

Personal Opinion as in... our interpetation or perceptions, emphasis in letting God be our quide, as in the Spirit of Truth leading us into all truth, as in hearing Gods word, as in being firmly established in the teachings of Christ, and his holy Apostles, hearing the voice of the prophets, etc.

My post had noting to do with correcting Biggie, I was in agreement.

Now think on this... Can you see my face? hear my voice? can you percieve and judge by the tone of my speech? If you need clarification on what I mean, then please do ask and not form the notion that you think you know where I am coming from. Lets judge righteously as commanded by the Lord.

These comments relate to Biggie as well, I don't find the need to explain myself twice.

Your right Brother, I cant see your face, nor can i hear your voice, I can't perceive anything anything other then if there being Love show.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails!

These are the fruit that we bare as we do as our Lord says. i wasn't offended by your words or comment, my brother. I just wondered why it didn't seem encouraging? For the word don't need any defending. what we should be doing is encouraging one another.
