I’m sure as I’m sure they are honestly open to following the Love of Jesus that each is so ardent because the know in their heart love to come from what they know. So why debate HOW God brings the love of Jesus to us? If we’ve accepted Jesus into our heart then we know the greater Love from the beginning and end, first and last, creator of all existence... however we want to zealot-ise ‘how’ it was done. I believe, above all, only Love can win. As long as we all stand on the unending grace of God and are trying to share the salvation through Jesus by love with others then we should not judge each other. I’ve called people out-right Luciferians for suggesting what I’ve been convicted is sin-death is actual ‘acceptable’. I’ve been called an idolater of the bible. None of this bickering and back bighting is Godly nor does it serve salvation, and thus we should respect each other’s faith and move past it. I believe you call evil good and good evil, believe in the inerrancy of human perception, and worship nature. You believe that I worship a book, mindlessly devoted: like a sheep who can’t tell the Shepard’s staff from his hand, denying what you see as God’s real word, his creation. I’ve come to a greater understanding of those that, on a basic level, disagree with my faith but also hold to salvation. I’ve come to understand that Love can be the only thing that matters in spreading the word of Salvation that’s essential to all mankind. In summation: No one in Christ is any less free from sin or judgment, no matter the scriptural value given. I pray you keep well in your walk with the spirit, in denying the flesh, and making yourself as ready and pure as possible for the marriage to come. |

And we've pointed out we are not rejecting the bible out-right, but just rejecting your literal interpretation of it. You need to address that point, but never do. YOU are NOT the Bible.

i just want a reason for something to be a metaphore and a resonable metaphore for said instance. If you are here to convince people that they are wrong, then maby you shouldn't be posting here.
well then it's not a debate but a discussion, which is a good thing. but these 'debates' are more about who's a better debater, who can pontificate better, and who is most arogant and hard headed... i think the oposit of what a good disgusion is about. |

But a wise person knows that he (or she) is not the ultimate source of knowledge. |

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink.
