A very interesting topic and timely too. Takes me back about a couple of years, when I trod on a couple of toes and wrote and apologised and asked forgiveness from those who I offended and the acceptance was posted, but reluctanly in a couple of cases. But as I said, that was a couple of years ago and there have some changes in the admin of the board since. one should chill out before jumoing in to respond if they feel a bit ticked off.. You know, dont' let the sun go down on your anger, or sompen like that. :emot-hug:

I just read this topic and am amazed, but not really, how it offended those who do the most offending. Just a suggestion. We do not share truth to convince anyone, that is the Spirit's job. We are just fishermen, looking for those who are in touch with the Spirit and searching for truth. When we share what we believe to be truth, we let the truth and the spirit do the cutting. If He is not able to get through, we will not and then we have done all that can be done. The word will get to all who are open to the Spirit of truth. Yes we can continue to discuss and present Scriptural evidence for our position without demeaning those who disagree with us. This open discussion allows everyone to reveal the spirit that motivates then. The honest and sincere are able to discern the Spirit of Jesus, versus the Spirit of pride.

Remember Jesus said to rejoice, not 'get ticked off' when people attack you, belittle you and say all manner of evil about you for His name sake, for the truth. Those people in the Spirit do not offend, are not offended and can disagree with others without having to offend. The truth that they speak may offend, but then it is the truth of God testifying that their deeds are evil and they won't believe Him or humble their hearts before Him in repentance.

Mat 5:10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

5:11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

5:12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

Jesus lives in the heart of the true believer and thus what is done to him is done to Jesus. You see it is to be the truth that offends, for the Holy Spirit is convicting the conscience, if this conviction is rejected, then the only recourse is to offend and accuse to justify ones position. All this is foreign to the Spirit of Christ.

Mt 25:40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as you have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, you have done it unto me.

This thread has been a perfect parable about this issue. Now just watch it be played out over this reply. Those with the Spirit of Christ don't get 'ticked off' for they love even their enemies. This is one way to sort out the many voices out there and those who 'revile not' have the Spirit of Christ and most likely are correct.

PS: We really are to be like Christ, for Scripture says 'we have the mind of Christ'.

God Bless,

Dennis

    • Exhortation - October 24, 2024

      Albert Finch posted a blog entry in Albert Finch Ministry,

      You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • The Simchat Torah War -- Is this a Water Breaking Moment of Revival?

      George posted a topic in Biblical Topics,

      George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
