Once again completely missing the point because of your obsession with authority other than that promised by Jesus.
If you think I am obsessed with any authority other than that promised by Jesus, it is you who is missing the point. My theology centers on and is surrounded by sola scriptura. Have you not noticed that whe someone makes a statement, I ALWAYS ask for the Scripture they think support what they say.

It is NOT about believing a man 2000 years after the fact, but of believing thae Spirit as expressed by that man and verifiable by knowledge OF that Spirit and the characteristics OF that Spirit as demonstrated by Jesus.
Jesus said when He left He would sent another Comforter, the Holy Spirit and He would guide us into all the truth. The only way we can know the truth is if the Holy Spirit allows it.
Why you think I have turned the man into an idol is beyond me. Another broad brush fundy painting? I know who the Son is. Peace
I prefer the run of the mill fundy who has just fell gullibly into bible fundamentalism than to someone who has thought they have had some divine revelation that others do not possess about God.
And how is that you have this living water seeing how I think you said you don't believe in the baptism in the HG? Because without it, all you have is a cistern, which like all standing water, will eventually turn fetid and breed worms, Jacob. Peace
I have never once said anything about being baptized in the HG all the years i have posted on here. The only thing i believe you are baptized in, is the teachings of men. Everything you say i have heard before from the bunch of crap i used to read myself.
Did you know the wicked unforgiving servant was thrown in prison UNTIL he paid the last penny?. So what was he doing in the slammer if not being reformed ?.
Your god yes. God does not do what the hell he feels like doing. He lives and moves by the essence of what he is........... Agape Love.
We serve the same God. I use the Bible, and the Bible is the only way to learn abut God. You use the parts you like and make up the rest. That is adding to God's word.
Any degree of true spiritual knowledge is. He won't speak much to those that don't meditate upon it because they would have nothing (no witness) to compare the voice to. It also has to do with being faithful (or not) with little. Peace
You do not believe that God can, will and has spoken to ANYONE--regardless of their mediation upon some book?
I prefer the run of the mill fundy who has just fell gullibly into bible fundamentalism than to someone who has thought they have had some divine revelation that others do not possess about God.
Pity for you that I'm not the only one that has had it. Far from it. Peace

And as I have told you, no man taught me. Any similarity to anything you've heard is not a coincidence, but rather an inworking of the Spirit in believers. Peace
