permie? jcisgd? seeker? cb?

true or false? if it is not in 100% agreement with the written word of God, it is not of God.

Your problem is that you do not know what the written word is because you block out the voice of the one who wrote it.

true or false, seeker?

come on, it's a straightforward question with only two possible answers. so quit judging me and just answer it.

if it's not in 100% agreement with the written word of God, it is not of God. true or false?

[Permie]

Please follow these quotes regarding the bible. I do not wish to be misrepresented in this area. I hold firm to the bible, as well as to Jesus, my Lord, Savior and High Priest.

Hey Thanks Permie

Your welcome.

I guess most people want to know if you have studied the bible. Which came first: the chicken or the egg?

and permie, the chicken came first.

So? The chicken is the bible?

Jesus is the word. has been since before creation. God didn't lay any eggs. but He did inspire men to record what He said so that it would be in written form.

Lady kept asking for scriptural proof, but then in the last quote, changes the emphasis to Jesus from the bible.

Now, I believe it is possible to know Jesus without knowing anything about the bible. Oftentimes when this occurs, the bible is then studied. In this case, Jesus is known better than the bible. Which is preferable?

I believe both are important, but I'd have to side with knowing Jesus as being the more important.

Why can't y'all just answer yes or no to Lady C's question? It's pretty straight forward.

[Guest LadyC]

i haven't changed my emphasis at all permie.

now please, answer the question.

if it is not in 100% agreement with the written word of God, it is not of God. true or false?

[Permie]

Lady C,

You have yet to answer my question here:

but being made in His image does not mean that He dwells inside an unbeliever. He doesn't.

What does it mean then?

And also:

If we do that in the manner as shown in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8, then is not scripture fulfilled? Any voice that would influence us to do anything other than those things are not of God. Satan came to kill, steal and destroy. If we do not love, as those scriptures instruct, Satan wins. This is how we can tell if the voice we hear is from God or not.

Do you think it is possible to know how to love like that, as shown in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8, without the bible? Would someone who knew love and loved like that, would they follow another voice?

[Guest LadyC]

answer the question permie.

my answer to your question is really irrelevant in light of the more important question. because if my answer , or indeed if ANYTHING, is not in 100% agreement with the written word of God, it's not of God... is that true or false?

[Miss Elly]

boy, i wish this next question would be answered, with just a yes or no, by every person in this thread, and that would be the end of it. but i know that won't happen.

so here's the question...

is the following statement TRUE or FALSE?

just answer it as either true or false with nothing else, ok?

if our "inner voice" or what we believe to be the voice of God (i.e. Jesus, i.e. the Holy Spirit) contradicts in ANY WAY what is said in scripture, then it is NOT the voice of God.

true or false?

Duh......let me think.....hmmmm.....so hard....

100 PERCENT TRUE....CLAP CLAP

Why can't y'all just answer yes or no to Lady C's question? It's pretty straight forward.

MorningGlory,

There are "seeming" contradictions in the bible. This presents a possible problem. Then, the verse that popped into my head when I read that question was:

If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. Luke 14:26

There would first have to be agreement as to what a particular scripture meant first. LOL, so much for that idea!

She had requested nothing other than a yes or no answer and since I could not answer it truthfully without our first coming to agreement on what certain scriptures meant, I did not answer.

That is why I did not answer.
