Hi yes i was like you too thinking that itS under the possible thought once apon a time to.
Im always looking for inspiring scriptures to help with my spiritual awareness.
I suppose i could just say read the scriptures to every single question i get involved in and no one could ever dispute that, if all i said was read and find out for yourself,
like yesterday i was asked from a person i had never talked to before his very first thing he said to me was will i go to hell for committing adultery,
my answer was i can not make that decision only God can, i also advised him to look up the word repent in the bible, as many bibles have an index of words which will point you to many passages, so like if i had gone straight into scripture and read out scripture that makes the person feel convicted, I might have been seen as passing judgment, now if had said god wants all his children to be saved which he does, that gives hope to the person, but going back to my last point if i just sit there and say nothing when i could of said something in the eyes of the lord i would be held responsible, for not helping a sinner to come to the lord, there are many different ways to deal with a situation in the bible and most point to forgiveness and understanding, which one should you for first should i go for the authority of god in the old t or the love of Jesus in the new t,
Jesus shows the authority of god through out the new t, when preaching and talking to the pharisees (the roadd to Galilee) Jesus is no wimp.
Now the question because Jesus does, does that mean i do.
