Subject: Re: Why can't we all just get along? Author: Proph [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 07:57:31 05/08/02 Wed In reply to: Matt Munn 's message, "Re: Why can't we all just get along?" on 00:14:36 05/08/02 Wed Your right, the Bible even states that no man can know the mind of God. But the Life of Christ in the Gospel draws clear conclusion about those who do not accept him. He gives parables of the wedding feast, parables of the harvest. These are teachings to show that those who don't believe in Christ will not see the Kingdom of Heaven. Christ plainly states it in his own words. It's not a tradition of man, its the word's coming from the SON OF GOD. Now of course people are going to do things differently, but that does not nullify what the scriputre calls us to do. Our own ideas do not nullify scripture. Be very careful that you do not look for things that aren't there,the bible says that people have a hard time accepting the things of Christ because they want more, but what more can you ask for then eternal life and knowledge. God says he will open the gates of heaven for you if you accept his son and follow in his ways. This is not just talk. Everyone talks about spirituality, but getting saved does not make someone a saint. Sanctification is a process, not an automatic, make no mistake. We must continue to walk and as we do, we begin to become more spiritual and become less attached to the world and its desires. If you want true spirituality, then follow in Christ footsteps.Christ said in Mark 16:17 "Those who follow me will drink poison without harm,cast out demons in my name" How much more spiritual can we get, we will never be like God or Christ, but we can work many miracles through his name by allowing our bodies to be vessels for his use. Man seeks a solid answer and equation for eveything, but there comes a point where numbers and calculations must end and true faith must begin. God says the faith of a mustard seed is all it takes to move mountains. IF we believe and seek God with a pure heart he will manifest himself to us and answer our questions. Just be careful of your motives [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
