[for me anyway] we can only receive and then increase understaning through the Holy Spirit of Truth, and not by any menas of mankind's methods: because it is not of him that planteth, neither of he that watereth; but only of God that giveth the increase, and not us.

[for me anyway] it is a matter of what the Lord Jesus Christ tells us and nothing wavering, saying "Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness" ... "having no part dark". (Luke 11:35-36)

[for me anyway] we may give our body to be burned, but if we had not charity, then it is nothing.

[for me anyway] the difference is that in true Christianity the true Christian denies their own will, that they submit to and rely upon the Word of God which is the will of God: and that by denying our own will we then shall also own our sin, because our own will will no longer be an obstruction...

The Scripture, the Word of God.

[for me anyway] fasting is to "go without" not only in food but moreover to go without self, our own will: it can be making the effort daily to go without our hand held device for a time; or go without television for a time; or to go without any thing that is of our selfish desire; any thing...

[for me anyway] fasting ought to be an every day matter when we behold fasting as what it is meant for: it is not the going without food only, but it is "going without" in all things that we tend to have an eagerness to possess or consume, such things as (especially in this modern time) the...

If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. (John 8:31-32) Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth [puts his trust into the hands and power of] sin is the servant of sin. (John 8:34) If the Son...

Gal 2:21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

1Co 14:12 Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church.

[for me anyway] I would show him what the Lord Jesus Christ has to say about His standard of how we must think of and refer to self such as: (Luke 10:38-42) with Martha concerned only about herself and missing the mark which Christ pointed out to he that her sister Mary has chosen, namely to...

[for me anyway] science is good as long as it keeps itself bowed down under the Word of God; but when it begins to think or speak above that which is written, then it is no longer good, but is evil, because thinking above that which is written it wherein dwells exaggeration and over-estimation...

[for me anyway] I study, set my mind and thoughts, submit to and rely upon the Word of God because I believe His Word that tells us that we are to live by every Word that proceeds out of the mouth of God; which by the way has nothing to do with pleasure, or curiosity, or any other worldly remedy.

[for me anyway] I thank God the Father in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for hiding His Truth from the wise and prudent (those that would make use of scholastic achievement in an endeavor to think and speak above that which is written), and instead reveals His Truth to the common, practical...

[for me anyway] "before it was on the earth" is a great gulf of another idea and concept than "before it grew": therefore making it easy to exaggerate and over-estimate scripture.

[for me anyway] it is by the Lord Jesus Christ's first command to us, namely to "Repent" (Mat 4:17) when He begun His ministry, and this first step never changes from generation to generation, though now in this present time many are falsely taught that they have no need to repent. Beside this...

[for me anyway] the whole matter of faith to grow is explained simply by (Romans 10:17), wherein we know that faith comes only by hearing the Word of God, therefore if we lack faith or wish to grow in faith, then we must more abundantly hear God'*s Word; and by the way hearing here is meant to...

[for me anyway) I agree this teaching misleads many into a false sense of security: it is an invention of binding together bits and pieces of scripture to enable their conclusion, while giving no heed to the actual Truth of the matter; for when any scripture comes along that is contrary to their...

(John 8:31) If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed.

You do err not knowing the scripture, but are deceived into believing a lie.
