In What Way Are Any Ashamed?

Porter:
Pamela, I recently started sharing on TikTok of all places. I had been avoiding that place like the plague because of all the bad things I heard about it. It's true, there is a lot of bad on there, but there is some good as well. I even ran into a group that teaches the salvation of all, as Ray and somebody named Mike Vinson taught it. This group has bible studies with Mike and his circle, from what I understand. I read some of Mike's work, and it was practically a word for word copy of what Ray taught. Furthermore, I'm aware that Mike and Ray were divided on some things, and they split up over the doctrinal differences they had. Ray even wrote a paper addressing the differences they had, but I cannot find it at the moment.

I decided to share some things I had learned in my studies with that aforementioned TikTok group, but none of them would have it. Their leader even accused me of putting my own “exegetical” explanation of the topic, whatever that means.  I thought of all the people I shared with, they were the ones that would have rejoiced. Now I feel silly and even a bit sad for having shared what I learned with them. It dawned on me these were the very wolves in sheep's clothing Jesus warned about. They were subtle with the hate that came out of their mouths toward anyone who didn't agree with them. It's not just them, but the Church as a whole, are unable to receive things of the spirit, so I honestly shouldn't be surprised.

Having said all that, there is some good that comes out from me participating in these TikTok chats. Jesus knew what He was doing when He sent His sheep out among the wolves. I just pray I'm not a wolf myself.

Wendy, that's precisely how I feel, too. I begin to question myself with “who do I think I am?”. I hate that feeling too.

Musterseed:
Ah yes ,the fiery trails of 1:Peter 4:12, your faith being tested.

James 1:19… know this my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear,
slow to speak, slow to anger, for the anger of man does not produce the
righteousness of God.

The anger of man and what do we know about angry men?

They despise the word of God. All of them.
Isa.30:12, 5:20, and 24 Chapter 1:vs. 4,

My sister and I had a discussion about why we want to shout from the rooftops
about Our Lord and believing our new found knowledge, We had to dig deep
within ourselves . Yes we want everyone to know what we know, but how do you explain to a bunch of know it alls that they don’t know it all. You then will look
like the know it all who has a free will attitude of arrogance. It will backfire.
And this we have to experience because it’s humbling us. But digging deeper
my sister and I realized that sometimes we ourselves were relishing in the idea
of knowing more than others. God knocked us both off of our high horses more than
once. We are learning to turn the other cheek and is so much better and peaceful.
Nevertheless the trials keep coming and according to Ray they don’t get easier.
God gives us bigger trials each time. We have to learn to appreciate them. Not an
easy thing to do however, but we learn, we have to, to overcome this wicked
evil world. It’s painful, physically, mentally, and emotionally , but spiritually, it’s
producing the righteousness of God. Thank God.

May God give you strength and comfort to continue to fight the good fight Porter.
In Christ Pamela

As a rule we do not allow teaching from other sites/people because it almost always ends badly.

But here is the Mike link, but let's not talk about Mike or other sites any more please:

Porter:
