Question on Sharing UR
Deborah-Leigh:
Kat
........it is only a joy to be "building up" with you. It is encouraging Iris that you are being blessed. :) ....that is so wonderful that it blesses me too :D
Anne, I read your enthusiasm for a new thread on MOTIVES....It was really sweet of you and what can I say.....I was drawn away to respond to Paula....and also have been busy to answer Gena on the Corinthinans 13 thread.....
A new thread on Motives simply faded for now...... Hope you understand that this does not mean that you should not open such a thread though. :D
Peace to you
Arcturus :)
Deborah-Leigh:
Hello Paula

Arcturus,
I understand. Perhaps the thread will come about at a later point of time. Good thread by the way.
Sincerely,
Anne C. McGuire

John 3:12 I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe; how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things?
1 Corinthians 3:2 I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready.
Salvation is a personal thing, and it not really important who is saved and not saved. What is important is that you believe Jesus is the way and only way to your salvation. God will lead everyone to this knowledge in his own time. Also do not try to give a truth to a person who does not want it? Truth like all virtue is a heavenly treasure.
Matthew 7:6 "Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear you to pieces.
Matthew 6:20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.
For me I would say salvation is best summed up in 1Co 3, and specially 1Co 3:11 to 3:15
1Co 3:11 For other foundation can no man lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
1Co 3:12 But if any man buildeth on the foundation gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, stubble;
1Co 3:13 each man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself shall prove each man's work of what sort it is.
1Co 3:14 If any man's work shall abide which he built thereon, he shall receive a reward.
1Co 3:15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as through fire.

Thanks for your reply rvhill. I appreciate all that you wrote but I quoted what I think sums it up. I like what you wrote: "Truth like all virtue is a heavenly treasure". I never thought of it like that before- that's good! I have come to the conclusion that it is best not to share with anyone who doesn't want to hear it and as you pointed out- that's scriptural.
Blessings,
Paula
