Yes, we differ in our understanding of the kingdom of God. I do not read it as having anything to do with any visible church. for Christ said the kingdom is within us, not to look for it as "it is here, or it is there". We pray for the kingdom to come on earth as it is in heaven.
JUST like Satan GOT eve to believe that it would be ok to sin, So Satan his you in the same boat, and it does not lead to Heaven
The visible church is not a building, but it is within us. Where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the midst of them. Matt 18:20.
That is pretty harsh, to call me satan. Are you sure you want to do that? If you do not want to discuss the harmony of the scriptures, just say so.
Of course it is. Do you see the logic though? If you don't read anything but the Bible, yet you post your interpretations here, isn't that somewhat hypocritical?
Or, do you recognize that reading the views of others may actually have value?
I don't mean to be unkind; rather, I'm pointing out the inconsistency in your rationale. I also disagree with the "Bible only" position, because I have seen how it limits one's understanding and, too commonly, tends to lead to wacky interpretations.
I am not calling you satan,
JUST like Satan GOT eve to believe that it would be ok to sin, So Satan has you in the same boat, and it does not lead to Heaven I was just saying you was deceived like Eve was, If you think you can keep sinning and still make it to Heaven
Until we see that the BIBLE is always right, we can not trust and understand THE WORD OF GOD
You know I do NOT clam TO be nothing special , or smart, or expect to be liked on here much. No one in the BIBLE that tried to tell what GOD really says, is never liked or loved, right down to the LORD YESUAH THE CHRIST, THE SON OF GOD, was HATED, DO I expect any more for me, I tell YOU NAY, Do I want to be liked, I tell you yay, BUT not to haft to disagree WITH THE things that the BIBLE really teaches, For I want to please GOD, AND stand on what the BIBLE really says, I PRAISE GOD,FOR the things that GOD has OPEN MY EYES up to in the BLESSED BIBLE,
I agree that the Bible is always right. I don't, however, agree with your concluding statement. We don't need to see that the Bible is always right to trust and understand it. Rather, it's a learning process, and our trust and understanding grow over time and with both experience and familiarity with the Scriptures.
I just people to learn that to sin willfully puts them in a lost position Till they repent and get it out of their life's, That this verse tells us very plain,
Hebrews 10:26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
10:27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
10:28 He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
10:29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
I do read the posts of those on this forum, which shows me how that the misinterpretation of the scriptures can lead many into believing their good works is the cause of their eternal inheritance, when the scriptures plainly states that our eternal inheritance is by God's sovereign grace, without mankind's participation.
I am sorry that I misunderstood you, and do enjoy discussing the scriptures with you. Do you believe that once you are born again, that from then on, you do not commit sins anymore?
I believe the scriptures to teach that Christ paid for all of the sins of those that his Father gave him, and his sacrifice was offered to God, for God's acceptance, and not to man, for man's acceptance. If Christ paid for all of the sins of those he died for, how can a sin of those he died for keep them out of heaven? Your kind of theory about Christ's death would make him a failure. It would also make God a failure, if he wants to eternally save all of mankind, but mankind can stay his hand. Dan 4:35 says that none can stay his hand.
I agree with this statement of yours, that the bible is the inspired word of God, and there are no contradictions in them.
No one should not love a person, just because they interpret the scriptures different than you. You should love them enough to want to correct their misunderstanding of the scriptures that they might be able to feel the comfort and security that is contained within them.
