I said: "I have the greatest respect for Mary. Mary K Baxter on her trip to Heaven saw Mary and she was wearing an outfit made out of diamonds!"
The book is actually a great blessing. It was touching to hear of Mary so recognized within reasonable non-idolatrous boundaries.
Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
Matt 7:1-2
I said: "Do you know what God (relucantly) says about you now?"
When you say "you have no use for her" you judge her personally. That will land you in the pit. Knowing this, wouldn't be a great idea to reconsider? Don't you want to get on the path of blessing?
The deposit of faith? What is that? If you're saying, that we're not giving them the same status as the Word of God, then you're correct, because the Lord said that their were no more foundational apostles. However, like every prophetic word or vision or gift of the Spirit, we judge by the witness of the Holy Spirit. Although trips to Heaven are much rarer, many have been. Many have seen Hell as well. God gives each one who sees a witness to give as a light to the people. The ones that want to do His will, will have "ears" and "eyes".
As I said: "I suppose you'll say that I am judging you, but I am only imposing the Word over your words. Not to gloat over your ungodliness. I don't want to see you burn."
You should have ears "on" to discern truth in everything that is spoken. It should not be judged through prejudice. When I witness to you of my own testimony it indicates why I believe God's Word the way that I do. It's not prideful, but only that through oppression, God shone a bright light by His Spirit on His Word. I'm not adding anything to scripture like the Mormons. I'm confirming it to be true. That's what a witness does. He bears witness to the truth.
Have you heard her? If so, you judge her without hearing the matter first. Proverbs says this is folly. How does she contradict the church? Because she received revelation from God and didn't bow to a religious institution first? It didn't stop God.Mary K Baxter is nobody to me and I could care less what she claims she saw.
Why, because I don't take serious a woman who's claims who contradict the Church. I don't want to be worthy of the doctrines of men and the hallucinations of women.

This scares me big time! My own desire is to bless and to impart grace. Yet I tell you this so you see that you judge the person and not the fruits or the revelation, and since you partake of your judgment "You're a nobody to Me"."Kepha is nobody to me and I could care less what he claims he saw (or says)."
I may have thrown back the same words at you but it was only to show you what you were doing with me.
From the beginning I've said that we are told to judge the fruits. You judge everything you hear. There's nothing wrong about that.I find it ironic that you permit yourself to judge her visions worthy to believe but I'm not permitted to judge her visions unworthy to believe.
When you say "you have no use for her" you judge her personally. That will land you in the pit. Knowing this, wouldn't be a great idea to reconsider? Don't you want to get on the path of blessing?
Here's your evil and religious eye. That's what your fruits depict. You judge because she doesn't go to your church. That has nothing at all to do with truth. You judge by this "knowledge".If she had these visions yet comfortably remain outside the Church then she's of no use to me because everything she says is now suspect.
...there have been so-called "private" revelations, some of which have been recognized by the authority of the Church. They do not belong, however, to the deposit of faith.

Who said anything about surpassing or correcting the Word? It agrees with the Word. Fortunately, God gave each believer the best teacher their has ever been, and He's right on the inside. If you believe in Him, He'll fulfill His ministry more clearly. You have to have faith mixed in with the promises....Guided by the Magisterium of the Church, the sensus fidelium knows how to discern and welcome in these revelations whatever constitutes an authentic call of Christ or his saints to the Church. Christian faith cannot accept "revelations" that claim to surpass or correct the Revelation of which Christ is the fulfillment...
If you could get this one thing you'd see fine and know that I'm not judging you. I'm judging your fruit. If I present something of God to you and you call it evil, you have an evil eye. Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. So you show yourself to be sinning. I would rather encourage you to repent and not get yourself a blot. Furthermore, I would love it if you were to read the book and be blessed, and consider what God wanted His people to know through the revelation.This makes you nothing more than a hypocrite as you've judged my heart on several occasions in this thread.
As I said: "I suppose you'll say that I am judging you, but I am only imposing the Word over your words. Not to gloat over your ungodliness. I don't want to see you burn."
You've concluded that in my heart, I've intentionally kept God out from revealing me His Truths.
- I've encouraged you to believe that God can and will speak to you, to which you've said I've made myself my own "Pope".
- My words are suspect to you because I'm not Catholic.
- I've told you God accepts all those who believe and want to serve Him without qualification.
Your own personal testimony to me is of no relevance to this discussion since even the Mormons can make this claim while adding to the books of Scripture.

...I'll allow your position to be motivated by ignorance and not contempt.
