I mentioned bible codes one time and now I'm "tagged" with it? Too funny. It's just another witness I mentioned. I've said far more about the Tabernacle and the creation witnesses. And I haven't proclaimed myself anything, and the Tabernacle pattern shows clearly where ALL men stand in the pattern.

Just because I see it, that doesn't make ME exclusionary, but it does show that the pattern points it out clearly. Which is probably why we were told it was the PATTERN of heavenly/spiritual things in Heb. 9, because He wanted those that were seeking spiritual truth to search it out, because it's like a mirror. But since few want to see themselves as they really are, because it hurts their fleshly pride too much, the blinders stay on. Peace

Yep, it's a river of living water that neither you, nor anyone else can dam, figuratively or literally.

I wouldn't dream of damming your spew of words. They reveal the spiritual dead end that is fundamentalism.

Nah, they're just death to the flesh and life to the spirit that can hear them. The true Word is a double edged sword; it both kills and makes alive. Peace

Because it hasn't been given to you to know it so that the Scriptures might be fulfilled. When the blind lead the blind, they both fall in the ditch -- just as Jesus said.

Exactly. Therefore, this Scripture then becomes fulfilled in the believer:

Romans 8

[1] There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
[2] For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
[3] For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
[4] That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

Waffle! You still haven't shown that it's true.

But, you don't want the truth, so why should it be revealed to you? Bellyache all you want; meanwhile, the Scriptures are fulfilled.

2 Thessalonians 2

[11] And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
[12] That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
