Me, and I'm sure some others, are passing your posts by because they are being presented as an
I have not argued the scripture I have explained that the scriptures are not the Living Holy Spirit..
ARGUMENT being pitted against holy writ,
I also pass by your posts as they never preach of the Living Holy Spirit, just religion.
not because we disagree in principle with the Spirit and spirituality, or don't already know and understand and experience these things.
So why not speak more from your heart/ spirit?.or maybe you do, only I can’t see very much of it, sorry Sis, I see you telling stories, maybe we should accept where we all are in Christ, my question is why can’t you accept where Epi is with the Lord?
God had the scriptures written down for good reasons.....which scripture itself tells us and witnesses and attests to.....so it's not a case of either/or. Does that mean we are to approach the scriptures by the carnal mind of the natural man and not in spirit and by the Spirit...no it doesn't, of course not. Maybe you need to keep in mind that there are different parts of the Body of Christ with different gifts, and all are needed. I know one thing for sure, to overemphasize one truth at the expense of another is always error and begets more error. We need the Spirit AND the word, both.
We need to know the Spirit first before we can ever understand the scriptures, Thats why we must be Born of the Spirit, before any said scripture can be understood?
There are so many scriptures.......the sword of the SPIRIT is the WORD of God
The sword of the Spirit is a Living word, which comes to us via the Living Holy Spirit, which penetrates the heart?..the Spirit testifies Of Jesus to our spirit as he’s indwelling our spirit permanently.
. And that is the sword we see in the MOUTH of Jesus in Revelation.
Jesus spoke out the Living word of God.everything that came out of his mouth was from God?
And scripture is also the weapon He used when He was being tempted of the devil in the desert.
Disagree, the Spirit is where the power is, who happens to indwell our spirit, that is where Gods power is in us.
So yeah, kind of important I think sister. Believers who are not well grounded in the pure word of God are sitting ducks for deception and error and going astray and not growing in the Lord....see it all the time sadly, and it's increasing hugely in our time.
I don’t believe a Born Again can be deceived, maybe for a short while, we still have to walk in faith on what we heard from God...he always brings us through the deception of man.
