Well, there are often elements of arrogance within the definition of a narcissistic person, depending on what type of narcissism is displayed. The term misogynist would not be applicable (if referring to actual narcissism) as both sexes are equal opportunity to the narcissist and there are...

Please try to stop introducing your own preconceptions into the discussion. I was obviously not discussing Paul or for that matter, anyone whatsoever in this forum as I have stated more than once now. There is also no need for you to attempt to create the illusions that I somehow do not answer...

The attempt to control others is not a manifestation of the Holy Spirit. It is alarming how many people attempt to do that very thing though and try to create the impression that they alone understand scripture and the rest of us had better pay attention.

I really do not give a care about what you are 'gonna'. For some reason you decided to respond to my post but you have attempted to abrogate what I actually stated. Assuming that the average person responding in this forum has at least a nominal ability to comprehend what someone writes, which...

Outstanding reply. aka knee jerk reaction. Indeed God is not the author of confusion, so why would you, how could you, possibly somehow conflate the apostle Paul with a narcissist? Please note, I am not holding my breath for an answer that would illustrate you have objectively understood what...

Frankly, there is a pretty good possibility that some men who cannot tolerate any sort of questioning regarding their 'authority' over women, are actually narcissists. They will use the Bible like a weapon to excuse what they say and what they do. Oh that could not possibly be true with a...

A timely and pertinent post. Thanks

These are very sobering scriptures. We are not immune and should never imagine we have reached some place where we no longer need to sharpen our 'swords'.

There goes that broad brush again. There are a good number of valid ministries online. And yeah, here you are on the internet. Guess we should not trust you either. ;):whistle: You can always haul out the Bible to verify what someone online is saying. Personally, I find the internet a...

Too many churches are run as a business. I praise God that you certainly do have a heart after the truth. I say no thank you also.

I haven't read that particular book but I sure agree that people need instruction to be able to discern the real from the false. Thanks :)

sigh I actually would avoid someone who has to prove how right they are rather than a person who believes they should avoid all church. At least you can show someone what the word states. The other person? yeah well :cautious: God told me to tell you that it's enough now. :giggle:

I'm not going to debate it with you. Cessationist simply means the cessation of all the gifts or more likely the cessation of some of the 'sign' gifts and it is your persuasion to believe as you do. Thank you I have read his post a couple of times as well as the other. Feel free to consider...

Sorry I was actually referring to the other poster not using the word 'loner'. Pretty sure they were not saying that.

Again, the problem is the false but good post. Personally I don't care for how the Lord's Supper conducted often enough. Not really sure what you are saying in the quote below?

Well the poster asked a specific question with reference to being called out of the world, not necessarily a church(s) Granted you had to read a bit to see that, but painting with a broad brush usually results in including everyone and I don't think that is the case. We may disagree on that...

OK well that is your persuasion. You cannot explicitly come on board and tell everyone what they should believe. I created the op so I am well aware of the possibility of error or false teachers/prophets. It seems you may be a cessationist and you may have been taught to believe that way or...

Well I would like to point out that this poster did not state anything about being a 'loner'. Some people cannot physically get out to a church so they participate online or have Christian friends who get together for study and prayer. I think we should be careful to not make sweeping...
