They still do what they did in Corinth, in many places, so, likewise, many are sick, and many (physically) die.... Spiritually ? < shrugs > not for here (this site).

However, what I referred to is very well known SCRIPTURE. Like(similarly) the SERMON on the MOUNT by JESUS. Almost no one , maybe no one, has ever explained the sermon on the mount as powerfully and as clearly as simply reading what JESUS says. Likewise the books of Corinthians - I've seen a lot of so-called studies and sermons about them, but hardly any of them are right on and as simple and powerful as YHWH'S WORD is directly. So few people have read the Epistles in the NEW TESTAMENT , it seems a major problem because they have no idea how the ecclesia (those who are born again, immersed in Y'SHUA) are supposed to live - and in fact most people say things directly opposed to and contrary to YHWH'S WORD. Also, as seen frequently online, whenever the object is just stated with minimal context, it is deflected, distracted from, or flat out denied. (like another very well known warning from JESUS not to just state the bare truth before the crowds(i.e. world wide internet audience) , lest the whole meaning is lost and dishonored and demeaned). Finally? , the apostles told their listeners to not accept anything they said, if it differed from TORAH and/or SCRIPTURE (YHWH'S WORD).... The only way to test everything is by reading SCRIPTURE..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to Mark 3:20-30, it is calling the Holy Spirit demonic. I would step back a few verses to see that Jesus and the 12 were casting out demons, healing the sick, etc. Then the multitude came together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread. But when His own people heard about this, they went out to lay hold of Him, for they said, “He is out of His mind.” And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, “He has Beelzebub,” and, “By the ruler of the demons He casts out demons.” So He called them to Himself and said to them in parables: “How can Satan cast out Satan? If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. And if Satan has risen up against himself, and is divided, he cannot stand, but has an end. No one can enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house. “Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they may utter; but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation”— because they said, “He has an unclean spirit.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It reduces every other person in the world to that of them as opposed to us and negates the mandate that we grant love to everyone, even our enemies. These which are commonly known as deadly sins are all egocentric and should be dealt with, but if we concentrate only on ourselves what does that accomplish for the rest of humanity in which we reside, not as an island being surrounded by it, but a drop of water within it's ocean Edited February 15, 2017 by Churchmouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These sins are often thought to be abuses or excessive versions of one's natural faculties or passions (for example, gluttony abuses one's desire to eat).".... BUT we all should know better! For we that grew up on Gilligan's Island adventures know the reality of it all. The island is Hell. Each of the characters is one of the 7 deadly sins: Ginger = LUST Mary Ann = ENVY The Professor = PRIDE Mr. Howell = GREED Mrs. Howell = SLOTH The Skipper = GLUTTONY plus ANGER Gilligan is SATAN. And there you have it, the rest of the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
