Bibliolatry: Worship/knowledge of the book MORE than the author

[St. SteVen]

What do you mean I couldn’t own it...I asked you repeatedly to show me where I played the God card?

You asked me once and I gave you three examples. See post #1811.

[

 

[Ritajanice]

There it is again. (a blind spot for you)

As if to say, you aren't playing the God, I'm the one taking it personally.
You used to do that. (when you were in the flesh)
But now you are in the Spirit. (the God card)
Inferring that I am in the flesh and NOT in the Spirit.

[

i am growing up in the Spirit, that is what I’m trying to explain..how you came to the conclusion that I’m referring to you..God only knows.

Would you say that you are pretty sensitive?...in certain areas?...just a question.

 

[Ritajanice]

No.
Not unless I claim your opinion disagrees with the Bible, or that God told me you were wrong.


Several times today.

Which infers that I am NOT in alignment with the Bible.

Which infers that the Holy Spirit is telling you that I am wrong.

Which infers that my understanding of God is wrong. (since He speaks to your heart)

[

Nothing here, shows me where I am playing the God card..imo.

Just your personal opinion of my posts..no problem, as I’ve explained ..you are entitled to your opinion...as am I....

If you make accusations about my character, then you need to back them up..so far you haven’t been able to..imo.

 

[St. SteVen]

I can’t stop you from doing that..only God can... It can be scary letting go of self...would you agree..? @St. SteVen

You can't seem to help yourself. (talking down to me)

I'm not offended. Just trying to make a point. I launched a topic on the subject a while back.

Playing the "God card" to end the discussion. - Misuse of God's name?

"My doctrinal opinion is true; you're doctrinal opinion is false." - Got it? Say what? Or worse... "Who should I believe, you, or the Word of God?" (in reference to a man-made doctrinal opinion) Basically, playing the "God card" to win a doctrinal argument. "How will you top that?" Why do...

You have taken what I say...that I am talking down to you...that is your opinion of how I post...no problem, if that’s what you think.....

I speak down to no one..imo.....therefore I don’t agree with your opinion of me...hows that...I’ve now just voiced my opinion....

I’m not going to change how I talk to accommodate your needs.

You’ve already said ,that you speak to people at times..which makes some feel uncomfortable...

 

[St. SteVen]

Nothing here, shows me where I am playing the God card..imo.

Here they are again.

I’m just going by the inspired word..where Jesus explains to Nicodemas that we must be Born Of The Spirit .

Which infers that I am NOT in alignment with the Bible.

It seems you understand one way..I understand another...I can’t believe as you do...I can only believe what has been testified to my spirit, by the Living Spirit who indwells my heart.

Which infers that the Holy Spirit is telling you that I am wrong.

Like I explained...you understand God one way..I understand God The way he speaks to my heart..

Which infers that my understanding of God is wrong. (since He speaks to your heart)

[

 

[St. SteVen]

I don’t agree with your opinion of me...

It's not an opinion of you personally. Just an observation about the way you post.
I know you don't mean to come off that way. (talking down to people)

[

 

[Ritajanice]

Here they are again.

According to you....

Which infers that I am NOT in alignment with the Bible.

Which infers that the Holy Spirit is telling you that I am wrong.

Which infers that my understanding of God is wrong. (since He speaks to your heart)

[

All according to you.....I explained differently....

 

[St. SteVen]

According to you....

Yes, according to me. As if that discredits what I said? (talking down)

You asked for evidence and I provided it. Twice.

[

Here you go again...accusing me of something that I’m not doing.....then you go onto say..,” I know you don’t mean to come off that way,( talking down to people).

I’m not taking what you say personally, many would..by what you have just posted.....I’m growing up in Christ and take nothing that you say to me “ personally “...do you understand what pride and ego are @St. SteVen ...I hope that you don’t take that question “ personally “...LOL.

 

[Ritajanice]

Yes, according to me. As if that discredits what I said? (talking down)

[

The same could be said of you...you are discredited what I’m saying....only imo..I don’t take anything that you say about me ,personally.......

You show me where I took what you have said about me..” personally “....

 

[St. SteVen]

I have informed you about playing the God card.
Hopefully that will have a positive effect going forward.

[

 

[St. SteVen]

Can you provide evidence?
It's not playing the God card unless I claim divine authority against what you have said.

[Ritajanice]

[

No you haven’t informed me about playing the God card...you “ told me” that I’m playing the God card.

I say...that I have not been playing the God card...I hope that helps you too, moving forward....I said that I speak from the heart, my heart...I also said what I believe the Spirit is speaking to my heart...how you got, that I believe I am speaking by divine authority...is beyond me....

Jesus was the only one who had divine authority....because he was without sin...

 

[Ritajanice]

Can you provide evidence?

I’m still waiting for you to provide that information.

It's not playing the God card unless I claim divine authority against what you have said.

[

And who has claimed divine authority?

Because I say ,what I post is what I believe God places on my heart to post.....if you take that to mean “ divine authority “....then that’s your problem, not mine...I’m not arguing, but, I won’t let you speak and try to say things about my character, that aren’t imo true @St. SteVen...in other words...that I’m playing God.

God has always spoken to my heart..that’s how I became Born Of The Spirit......I’m certainly not going to deny that..because you think I’m speaking by divine authority...which doesn’t even make sense imo....I don’t have an ounce of divine authority...only God has that.

 

[Ritajanice]

By the way @St. SteVen ...would you start a thread about divine authority....as I find those words interesting and resonated with my spirit.?

What is divine authority ....I would like to research that more...best not take this thread anymore off topic...that we have both been doing...

 

[St. SteVen]

I won’t let you speak and try to say things about my character, that aren’t imo true @St. SteVen...in other words...that I’m playing God.

I never said that you were playing God.
I said that you were playing the God card.
Like a game of cards where someone plays a card to win the game.

I don't use divine authority. (except on kingdom business)
That's what this topic was about.

Ok....I am now going to draw a line in the sand .

Maybe I should.
I would have to give that some thought.

Many misuse God's name to their undoing.
