Amen Arcturus,
For:
Mat 25:45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did [it] not to one of the least of these, ye did [it] not to me.
Great thread! :)
Love to you in Christ,
Darren

No problem ray. I can see from your attitude that the Bible has not produced a mature Christian, which is why your so far off on the scriptures. Everyone wants to say "God showed me these things", RATHER than follow Gods method for learning:
2Ti 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
A sincere and mature Christian can discuss things, but you are obviously a babe.
Have fun decieving people,
Sincerely,
Paul
They would all just shrivel up and DIE, if they couldn't get the last word in, Readers. If I were to ask him for the three Scriptures to his three unscriptural lies again, he would write me back again, and again. Getting the last word in, is his proof that he is right and I am wrong. Ya see, "I couldn't answer him," therefore he shut my mouth and proved me wrong. Oh the joys of the carnal mind to the carnal-minded. This guy just LOVES the pagan doctrines of Christendom, but oh how he despises the Word of God.

This is an important discernment that Ray shows his readers.
How often do we encounter the questions and answers that continue regardless of the wisdom knowledge and understanding offered to detractors and those who are non so blind as them who will not see.
Sometimes we can get into endless genealogies and myths that lead no where and here Ray picks the trend and shuts the opportunity to this detractor who is unteachable.
I appreciated what Ray highlights here. ;D 8)
Haven't you met those types who no matter what you say or show them they still want to be right!? ;D
Peace be to you
Arcturus :)

I just experienced this too! On another board, I was ''debating'' with a fellow who insists that after conversion, there will never be any sin in the life of a believer. This man is so bold as to proclaim to everyone on the board that he never, ever sins. And he is very condemning of anyone humble enough to confess that they still struggle with sin.
So I posted scriptures and used logic, and we went back and forth in our debate, and then he came back with the example of Job being sinless even through his trials. I explained to him that the theme of Job is that no matter how righteous he appeared on the outside, he was full of filth on the inside. And God had to burn it out of him. And so we should never assume that we have reached perfection while in the flesh.
Well that seemed to set him off and he used all sorts of colorful terms to describe me because I was disrespecting God's servant Job.
So, I said that nothing profitable could come from any further discussion, and that I refused to carry on with it.
So of course, he came back and said that I am "forfeiting the debate" and implied that I am "running away" because I couldn't refute him. So I told him that if it makes him feel better to think that, go right ahead. I am done. And he still kept trying to draw me back into the debate!
I thank God that I am able to just chucke at this type of behavior now. In times past, I probably would have gotten all bent out of shape and gone right back at him, back and forth, on and on for the ages. But God is chastening me into maturity and I appreciate it. ;D
Sorry for that long and insignificant story.
