Subject: Re: Faith Author: tim [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 20:25:18 04/21/09 Tue In reply to: tim 's message, "Faith" on 22:21:13 11/02/08 Sun And you've said a lot with very few words, Shane. I won't delete you, just yet. First, you are suggesting that one CAN know and that's very encouraging. Second, you are suggesting that I could perhaps convince someone with my words, torrent or otherwise...And that would make me the Holy Spirit! He's the only convincer that I know of. If His Word doesn't convince you, nothing will. Third, you sense doubt in my words, well halleluiah! I've convinced you of one thing then that I am NOT Jesus! Only He lived a perfect life and expressed Himself without a doubt. This website is to encourage other believers in the Truth of God's Word as experienced through one life lived for God. I don't expect anyone who has not already trusted Christ to read these words and jump on board, or get excited about them even! With this said, I hope you FEEL welcome to come again and if you find something to encourage you in what is written here, Praise GOD! If not, post your thoughts, but know this, I will delete you if you persist in being contrary! AS I said before, until Joe says otherwise, I am still the FINAL AUTHORITY here at the Tim O'Rourke Forum, no doubt about that! [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> Subject: Re: Faith Author: Shane [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 09:24:54 04/22/09 Wed It's ok if you want to delete my post. I don't take it personally as I have no desire to be right. I prefer to be quietly in the background, so this will be my last post. Jesus said;"Know the truth and the truth will set you free". He was,of course,not referring to a conceptual truth,but the truth of who you are beyond name,form,and the contents of what you call "your life". Jesus spoke in parables because a parable has the ability to slowly erode who you think you are into revealing WHO YOU TRULY ARE. Another way of saying; "You will know the truth and the truth will set you free" is I am not what happens, but the space in which it happens. Thank you for allowing me to post this final message. You will ALWAYS be my friend. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
