Yeah, it came from his book the bible. Did you miss the reference to the book of James? Ok, we may not be brothers, check out verse 12. you know damn good and well I could care less what you think about his heart, nor was that what the post was in reference to. Another opportunity for you to sidestep something, show me where I've distorted someone's Word. Yeah, if you need advice on bible studying, let me know. I can give you plenty of places to look.

 

Matthew 7:15-20
Matthew 7:16
John 7:24
Hebrews 5:14
Christians can discern both good and evil which according to the Bible is a legitimate judgment.

 

Matt 7:15
15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.

 

Good job on the one valid argument, we'll forget how irrelevant it is. I'm proud you for discerning good from evil. Now explain where is says you can judge saomeone's life and discern whether they go to hell.

 

We both know that it is very simple...Accept Christ. He says so many times, and I need not show you for you already know where the scripture is. You have chosen to deny it, and seek other ways. You have the right to choose. That is what makes you so dangerous. Yes dangerous. Dangerous because of your knowledge and uncanny ability to twist. Deep down, you know this to be true.

 

Matthew 7:15-20

15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them.

There is your answer...

 

I'll go ahead and call bull**** on the twisting call. Do you really think I'm going to throw out Matthew Henry's commentary along with the verse in order to twist something? Have you even heard of Matthew Henry? This is not some random, let-me-find-something post. As far as what he said, who gave it authority. the Greeks collected a bunch of stories about gods and everyone thought it was acceptable for a while. I'm quite sure I'm not going to follow a book that "quotes" a man almost 100 years after his death by, maybe, secondhand accounts, then revised in political forums over the centuries. Oh yeah, even if all those factors weren't there, who says he had the authority besides him?

 

Ok, condeming to hell is not based on fruits though. It's based on whether you accept the late JC, so says you. So, again, you can see what kind of person he is by his fruits, and that's it. Are you so much above the law that you can take Gods place and pass judgement on anyone?

 

HG, I love you.

That should **** you off.

 

Yes I do. Are you denying that you want to disprove the bible? Are you denying that you are trying to disprove the word...yet guide me as to the meaning of the word?


I never said Mr.Henry was an authority...your the one that quoted him. Not sure whose authority Mr.Henry spoke, but I know upon whose Christ spoke...

John 14:10
10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on My own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works.

Why are you getting so upset?

 

How can one use something as proof when they have no belief in what they are citing?

 

Does your book come in paperback, or is it still in hardback?

 

It's not that I want to, It's just so easy to doubt it. And yes, I'll use Mr Henry to show you what the bible says.

[QUOTE=Shinesintx]I never said Mr.Henry was an authority...your the one that quoted him. Not sure whose authority Mr.Henry spoke, but I know upon whose Christ spoke...QUOTE]

My "him" refers to JC.

 

Oh no, I stareted it off in leatherback, with gold edges.

 

Because it's about the only thing some people understand. If you're gonna use the thing, at least know what you're talking about. Now go back and tell me whether you get to heaven by accepting or by making fruit.
