He is a fundamentalist literalist who usurps God's judgment role and determines who is Christian based on whether or not they agree with him. Pretty standard fundy stuff here on C-D.
He's also the life and soul of any form of gathering
you mean agree with John 3:5 ?
if its left up to my carnal flesh it could care or less about water baptism
you mean agree with God in Hebrews 4?
if its left up to me i could care or less about the sabbath teaching
you mean call any philosophy of the bible legal?
if its left up to me in the flesh i could care or less about isaiah 64:6
my wisdom your wisdom it's a filthy rag.
God's wisdom is what to agree with only.
nothing in the book say john 10 people have a divided opinion of the book with each other anywhere.
if the book saying saying different in 2 Peter 1:20-21 then school me good if your a john 10 person hearing what he say.

Jesus is the Word of God . . . not the bible, Verna. By this time you should know I have more than read the bible and understand its spiritual import and role as "USEFUL" for instruction, etc. Fundamentalist literalists distort the message of Jesus and corrupt His clear commandments to "love God and each other" with ancient primitive misunderstandings created under the veil of ignorance... (the only ignorance is yours Mystic) ...in reading written scripture without the filter of Jesus's love and Holy Spirit. (His love and Spirit IS my filter and my Guide, forever.)
...and the "importance" of Scripture (THE WRITTEN WORD) is MUCH MORE than "USEFUL", IT IS MY WHOLE REASON FOR BREATHING.
...but I don't expect anything other than this kind of reply from you...or from anyone else that thinks as you do for that matter.

But scripture only says it is "useful" . . . not all the things you attribute to it, Verna. If you truly read through the mind and eyes of Christ (not Jehovah) . . . your inner Jesus will tell you when what you read is of God or misunderstandings of men. IF you feel the slightest bit of vengeance or anger or any other negative human emotion that causes you to agree with what you read . . . it is NOT of God. You are already using the scriptures for guidance . . . and that is wonderful. But you are allowing your innermost loving nature to make excuses for God NOT being as loving as you are. Do not ignore what you know in your heart is mean, callous, cruel, evil, and inexcusable . . . even for God. I am not your enemy, Verna. We love the same God . . . you just make excuses for the primitive misunderstandings in the descriptions of Jehovah that Jesus came to correct.
I'm with ya on that brother...what was the point of all that?
