Where do you get your information that causes you to come to this conclusion? Certainly not any biblical canon.

I've never read these words in all my years of reading the bibles.

I have the Spirit of the Word of God in me. I have the mind of the Word of God in me. I am a child of God the Father, Who gives truth, knowledge, understanding, wisdom to His children who asks of Him.

I question as much as I can along the indwelling Spirit. We discern things together so we can discern truth wherever it is found. The bibles being one of many sources.

Who told you this? You keep making these statements but fail to substantiate them.

agreed

Absolutely! I can't determine the means by which the Spirit of Truth is going to reveal truth.

Have you read any of my following posts that clarify what I HAVE SAID?

It appears not. You aren't interested in the truth but you appear content on accusing others with half truths and taking things out of context.

Satan uses this tactic, using part truth and out of context.

The tempter came to him and said, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.”
Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’
Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. 6 “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written:

“‘He will command his angels concerning you,
and they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’[c]”

Jesus answered him, “It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’
And you can't substantiate any of that! You clearly forsook the Bible! Your own words! You quote the Bible when it's convenient. I've seen it for decades, people who pick the parts they like. Yes I have read your mind boggling attacks on the Bible! When you forsook the Bible you forsook God of the Bible. I think you're gonna have a real problem on Judgment Day!

WHAT IS YOUR RELIGION??? I don't think you even know.

Why do you promote the bible so much but not refer to it, or quote it.

Yet for me who goes to it irregularly, quote it many time more than you.

An invitation: Let's reason together over your choice of truth found in the bibles. Finding the context of the text and see what the Spirit of God reveals to us.

As I've said before, I am free to go explore truth from whatever source. The Spirit has no limits. I am learning to have no limits or restrictions.

You mean like this?

Revelation 21:8 All liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone,

Yet for me who goes to it irregularly, quote it many time more than you.
But you said your life is OUTSIDE the Bible. Remember?

What you said was, you are led by voices in your head, NOT THE BIBLE!

For clarification, can you quote any of these attacks you're refering to.

Let's investigate them. Or even 1.
Already have! You're just not paying attention! Just like the Bible that you forsook.

What's your religion? Don't know? When you forsook the Bible you forsook God of the Bible!

Are you hiding something? Maybe people reading your posts are questioning if you are biblically illiterate.

I've responded to your quotes from the bibles in your posts but you won't discuss, respond or expound on them.

Let's divide the Word of truth and reason together. What are you afraid of. Here is your opportunity to promote and explore some of the depths you refer to regarding the bibles. Let's do a deep dive and hopefully find some yet to be discovered truth that lies in its depth you speak of.

Ok, tell me more. Expound on this quote of John's. What's the context of his statement?

Have you ever lied? If you have than you are a liar and you will have your part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone. Is this kinda how you interpret John's statement?

If not, do tell.

Since you insist:

You said:

"Personally I have left Hawaii (bible) and have gone further afield."

"I don't hear Him speak to me in an audible voice. He speaks to me in parables mostly."

"ALL humans have sinned against God and all are going to hell forever and ever."

"Life with God outside the bible is great!"

No Christian would say any of that!!!!

So, WHAT is your religion??? I don't think you know.

I doubt that he has ever read it.
Cover to cover, I mean. As I have and probably you as well.

You have lots of doubts

What would you like to know about the Bible? How much have you chopped out of the Bible? Lots maybe?

No surprise that you support his unChristian comments!

"Personally I have left Hawaii (bible) and have gone further afield."
"I don't hear Him speak to me in an audible voice. He speaks to me in parables mostly."
"ALL humans have sinned against God and all are going to hell forever and ever."
"Life with God outside the bible is great!"

Are you saved by the religion of "Christianity"?
I'm saved by Jesus of the Bible that you constantly attack. Doesn't it bother you that One 2 question said you will burn in Hell forever and ever?

You quote my words more than the bible. Why is that? And when you quote God you quote His wrath more than His mercy and grace.

Haven't you experienced His love, expressed in His mercy and grace?

For those who have been drawn to God through Christ by Their love, we want to tell everyone of this fantastic love, mercy, grace, compassion, kindness and the joy it produces in us.

We lift up the Christ and He draws sinners to His love. I appreciate the truth that it becomes irresistible.

Are you willing to tell us about your personal experience of God's love in His mercy and grace.

I see God working in this way. Like the shepherd (love) leads out in front to draw people to Jesus, while the sheepdog (wrath of God) pushes them towards Jesus the Savior, as a means of saving them from Satan the real predator.

Can you tell us about how you were saved

Why would that upset you?
And when you quote God you quote His wrath more than His mercy and grace.
If you hadn't forsaken the Bible you would know there's MUCH more about God's wrath than His mercy!
Haven't you experienced His love, expressed in His mercy and grace?
But you said we are all gonna burn in Hell forever!
For those who have been drawn to God through Christ by Their love, we want to tell everyone of this fantastic love, mercy, grace, compassion, kindness and the joy it produces in us.
I repeat, you said we are all gonna burn FOREVER!
We lift up the Christ and He draws sinners to His love. I appreciate the truth that it becomes irresistible.

I'm simply repeating your insane comments for others to witness.

"Personally I have left Hawaii (bible) and have gone further afield."
"I don't hear Him speak to me in an audible voice. He speaks to me in parables mostly."
"ALL humans have sinned against God and all are going to hell forever and ever."
"Life with God outside the bible is great!"

No Christian would make such comments! So I ask again, who / what is your god?

Romans 10:9-10 If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

You may be the most confused person on the forum.

I must admit, I doubted that you did have a personal encounter and ongoing relationship with Jesus the Christ.

If you do, have you prayed for the likes of myself or do you just continually accuse us, judge us and condemn us?
Do you ask God that He will have mercy on us or that His wrath would be poured on us?
