worm:

--- Quote from: ertsky ---come out of Her... be ye separate

i am separate from the lies of Babylon, i am not at peace with Babylonians.
--- End quote ---


yes...reject the lies of Babylon but not the people...that's what God is doing and if He does it, so will I...

the parable of the wedding fest comes to mind...we should not put ourselves in the front seat...only "the bridegroom" knows our rightful places to be seated :wink:

ertsky:
i'll race you to the lowest seat worm ;)

you know Who'll meet us there

 :lol:
you're on bro...only problem is a worm moves quite slow (hoping you're a tortoise) :D  :wink:

ertsky:
while we're racing worm what do you make of these verses ?

2Jo 1:10  If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
2Jo 1:11  For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

i read it like people who insist that God will torture people endlessly in flames are to be rejected by those who know better (know better not are better)

as in

Tit 3:10  A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;
Tit 3:11  Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.

i'm all for sharing what i've got, but once someone rejects the truth twice

what's the point in continuing

first of all it would be disobedient to the above verses and also

Amo 3:3  Can two walk together, except they be agreed?

it's early days for me yet but i have every intention of rejecting those who reject Him by failing to acknowledge the various doctrines such as UR, many called few chosen, enduring to the end, chastening grace, etc etc etc

what do you think worm have i got it wrong?

spirituality is not "would you like another cup of tea vicar"

spirituality is faithfulness to the doctrine of Christ

i'm not really interested in style i'm interested in content

many peoples style irks me, i say nothing of their style only the content

yet my style is overfocussed on to the extreme

it's just a trick of the enemy to avoid content

i seek Truth not style

 I know exactly what you mean.  I believe you do.  I do, too.  There are times when I just wanted to win an argument (this is simply pride) but on the most important issues I believe I simply want the Truth.  This is not because you or I are good of ourselves, but because God has caused us to seek Him.  

Mat 5:6 Blessed [are] they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.  

Mat 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

Jhn 4:32 But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of.

It's not about the butter, margarine, or jam (country crock?) you put on the bread but the bread that matters.
