Interesting thoughts on your part. You have ...Doug,<br />Interesting thoughts on your part. You have raised all kinds of questions about scripture and what it means to be false teachers. You have in fact pushed me to do some Bible studying and probably later a posting.<br />In the mean time what do you make of that text? And what do you think about the term false techers?Viola Larsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09146967423654966140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-61602371194493178422011-06-13T13:18:24.598-07:002011-06-13T13:18:24.598-07:00Joan Chittister, take note.

According to Dave Moody, you are:<br /><br />An irrational animal; born to be caught and destroyed; blasphemous; ripe for destruction yourself; a blot and a blemish; adulterous; insatiable for sin; trained in greed; accursed.<br /><br />As always, the Christian love on this blog is palpable. (Dave Moody is of course likely to falsely claim that it is the Bible, or Peter, saying these things, and not him.)<br /><br />I'm always happy to see the Bible giving people who want to say incredibly cruel and insulting things the moral smokescreen to make it not only possible, but for some, laudable.Douglas Underhillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02215736448645573566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-8696387969739187682011-06-12T15:34:25.047-07:002011-06-12T15:34:25.047-07:00Sherry-Amen-and me too.Sherry-Amen-and me too.Viola Larsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09146967423654966140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-7166368283288801212011-06-12T15:33:41.830-07:002011-06-12T15:33:41.830-07:00Thats true David I never thought of that.Thats true David I never thought of that.Viola Larsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09146967423654966140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-53259551893812442502011-06-12T13:51:02.848-07:002011-06-12T13:51:02.848-07:00“The Holy Spirit embodies the life force of the un...<i>“The Holy Spirit embodies the life force of the universe, the power of God, the animating energy present in all things and captured by none.”</i><br /><br />Jehovah's Witnesses believe this as well.<br /><br />David Fischler<br />Woodbridge, VAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-30318539925325185362011-06-12T01:44:59.595-07:002011-06-12T01:44:59.595-07:00I pray that YHWH personally reveals Himself to her...I pray that YHWH personally reveals Himself to her and others who call themselves by His name.

They count it pleasure lto revel in the daytime. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their deceptions, while they feast with you. 14 They have eyes full of adultery, ninsatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts otrained in greed. Accursed children! <br /><br />2 Peter 2Dave Moodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08217094060036455319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-40483130275782682252011-06-11T14:19:02.960-07:002011-06-11T14:19:02.960-07:00Very nice post.Very nice post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560220615271337359.post-19332306171075191072011-06-11T12:13:18.689-07:002011-06-11T12:13:18.689-07:00"May our own hearts

so that ..."May our own hearts<br />burst into flame<br />so that no obstacle,<br />no matter how great,<br />ever obstructs the message<br />of the God within each of us."<br /><br />So it's all up to us?<br /><br />What a sad thing, really. We are responsible, and if the "message of the God within each of us" is obstructed, it's our fault.<br /><br />I'm so glad that God is greater than being just a life force of the universe, some presence within each of us. I'm so glad I know him personally, that he has been the active one in creating our relationship and forgiving my wrongs, and that I've encountered his amazing actions in my life. If I thought he was only a life force, what sadness and dreariness I would still be suffering.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01755638934636386391noreply@blogger.com
