Scripture is clear
Thats why I will stick with the apostles being a witness to the traditions they told us they spoke to them about in 2 Thes (one which had to do with their commandment about working) which they wrote about. The tradition itself conveyed in two manners (in person and in letter) and so whether it be in word or epistle the two forms of communications there spoke the same thing.
And John was talking about what Jesus DID as even John puts a difference between what folks say (in tongue) and what they do in his epistle, and it also shows that Jesus did things in secret.
John 21:5 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.
Keeping with what was previously written "the making of many books there is no end" (Ecc 12:12) as that which Jesus Christ did up to this point is being addressed from that which Jesus said even in the book of John by Jesus Christ
His brethren say,
John 7:3 His brethren (after the flesh)therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.
John 7:4 For there is no man that doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, shew thyself to the world.
So he did do things he was encouraged by his own brethren to show his disciples which John acknowledges in John 21:5 even after the fact. Concerning what Jesus said up to even this point, Jesus also said this
John 18:20 Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and in secret have I said nothing.
What was done was done in secret and Jesus said in secret he said nothing.
And concerning what was written he wrote,
John 20:31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.
Scripture would be sufficient. At least sufficient enough that the man of God be perfect even thoroughly furnished unto the good works we are created unto in Jesus Christ.
John also speaks to what one says and what they do as distinguishable in other places for ourselves.
Even as this is my fault for answering again, and I am trying not to do that, but you seem to make Jesus into a liar so often. I will now unsubscribe from this thread and apologize for answering.
