That inspiration/conviction of sin requires faith in the Word that is read. Faith isn't through reading the Word but through hearing it.

On the contrary, reducing the Word to a written form allows it to be a tool to dupe. The bible alone isn't able to prevent every wacky belief system from becoming truth. The faith is transmitted by sound. The conduit of faith is the sound of the Word of God. That isn't something the written Word...

There is I believe that. But I know that God's Word is more than a written form of the birth of the Church. That the bible can't in of it's own power transmit the faith or convert an unbeliever. The Holy Spirit wouldn't have needed Philip to teach the eunuch if the bible had the power you give...

Thanks but even if true it redirects focus from the subject (free will) to me. A human and earthly creature . Human reason is different than Divine Revelation. Faith from above requires faith to offer reason opportunity to ascent to it's revelation. That's me. I must really try your patience.

The bible isn't the conduit the Holy Spirit uses for the transmission of faith. Biblical faith is a concept that emerges from an errant understanding of the Word of God. The bible don't make churches. Faith isn't through reading. The Scriptures we're not so useful for making converts or...

Odd that I feel the guilt when someone else chooses the evil. Why do I get punished for doing something evil if I'm not the one willing to do the evil? The fact that there is a mental faculty hardwired to judge deeds in real time and dispense punishment or reward is pretty much proof that we...

This rejection is recent. Mary was much more revered by the original reformers than what is seen here. Here faith in Jesus lacks knowledge and union with Christ. This is the results of a faith that requires another faith to be wrong. Much of it's expression of truth is based on the others error...

We see the height of human reason in the establishment of philosophy. That there is one God and creator can be known by reason alone. The Egyptian creation myth is human reason making sense of long observation over generations. Human reason is incapable of knowing God as three Person's...

Just a bunch a brow thumping knee slappers us trinitarians are. Can't understand normal thinkin' Ain't had no learnin' no schoolhousin' No meaningful conversation possible.

I don't know how Jesus could even teach only a good tree can produce good fruit if His mother had sin. He'd have to add a qualifier 'except my mom, good fruit came from a rotten tree in our case'' ' But that's the only exception! Otherwise.....lol

Let's see. I'm going to cite scripture. Elizabeth called Jesus fruit of Mary. That is packed with truth. A tree is a fitting symbol for Mary. The tree of Life is even more precise for the Mother of God.

It becomes obvious who really believes Jesus is God by how they treat His mother. The virgin birth requires supernatural faith.

Where in scripture does it say... That's not biblical.... Don't you believe the Word of God? Just goes to show how the Holy Bible can be used to illuminate the mind or be a tool to remain in darkness.

The Catholic Church looks peculiar Because it Is Incarnational like Jesus.

She is there. Only Adam and herself can look at another and say "flesh of my flesh bone of my bone." The fruit of Mary's womb is Salvation. That's a good tree in deed. We all hope to communicate Christ spiritually to others, Mary manifest the Word of God physically materially.

Jesus had just taught to be careful how you hear. You hear an accusation that isn't there. The same passage could sound like Jesus pointing out His mother as someone who hears the Word of God and does it. Great example of how the devil uses unconscious bias.

I pray that heaven reveal to you the meaning of the virgin birth.

I posted what is evident and obvious in regards of free will. If you would address free will as I described. I think my version is true.

We possess free will. Satan has distorted it's meaning. Free will is an ability. It is the ability to do what ought to be done. Jesus demonstrated perfect freedom. Then the freedom of choice. We aren't good ourselves. We do this or that because its good.Thats free will. If we were good we...

Careful mate. The people on the left thought they were right too. It was the people who didn't know they were, that Jesus called righteous. Just sayin'
