You've read it in the scriptures, but have you believed it in your heart?
And if you have believed it in your heart, have you performed it in your life?

Give Satan the bible to read and he will twist every single thing in it to make it look like condemnation.

Give a Hypocrite the bible to read and he will twist ever single thing in it to make it condemnation.

Only by the Holy Spirit do come to the knowledge of the Truth. Not by degrees nor by our own wisdom or understanding. Only by the Spirit of God who draws all people to Jesus Christ.

But the pure heart will hear the Truth and see the Truth. A humble person will hear it, because their heart is in the right condition to receive it. And they receive the Love of the Truth, and they are not offended. They know Jesus and they have the witness of God.

Is your heart pure? Or is your eye evil?

May Jesus bless you.

Very true Ananda. Forgiveness is contrary to bitterness. And how many times must we forgive? Seven times? 70 x 7 times? I say, 7000000000 x 7000000000000 times.

May Jesus bless you.

Dear Ramon, May Jesus Christ the Only-begotten Son and Word of God bless you.

You've read it in the Scriptures: the Holy Spirit, "the Comforter, the Spirit of truth", is said by Jesus Christ to "proceed from the Father". Do you believe it? Or are you going to add to the Scriptures, and say that the Spirit proceeds not only from the Father, as John 15:26 says, but also "and the Son", also from the Son? In defiance of Jesus Christ?

What's the big deal scott? Are you going to try and take away from the deity of Jesus Christ? Jesus said I and my Father are one. Do you not believe that Jesus is God? Do you believe in the trinity? Its amazing the hoops some people will jump through to defend the theology of their church. Hey, guess what? There is no such thing as a perfect church! Yes I said it. Churches are made of people and therefore they make MISTAKES!!! Its ok. We're all human. We all make mistakes. Thank the Lord for Jesus who forgives our sins (mistakes).

May God Bless You
