I am not even sure what you mean Lisa.
If it is too late for you, then by all means move on.

What does asking a question have to do with being in kindergarten, or Kansas for that matter.
It is not necessary to be demeaning.
Should we not be able to question the reason for things being done here?


Your statement is much like what the pastor used to say to me in church. Don't question anything,
just believe what I tell you. Trust that there are good reasons for what I do.

I never could bring myself to do as he said.

Peace to you Lisa,

Tim

Tim , I agree with you. When I am told by anyone to believe a thing or do something with no questions asked, it sends up warning flags to me. God gave me a brain to use just as He did everyone else.Nole

Can you give an example of where there is an unbiblical teaching by Ray that is in disagreement with the bible?
Just curious.

Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do."

1 Timothy 2:1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
ver. 2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
ver. 3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior;
ver. 4Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
ver. 5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
ver. 6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

These are all thought provoking scriptures.
Any thoughts?


Peace and Love
Iris

I do have a problem with any individual putting themselves above others and putting Ray's teachings in a class of their own which sometimes seems to be above the Bible.

Seminole it is statements such as this one that perplex me about you. When has anyone said that Ray's writings are "above the bible?"

Give us one example of Ray, a moderator or a member making or even implying such a thing.


If questions are asked and if they are answered, it seems that the one with questions is referred to a paper Ray wrote. What about leaving me, Ray, forum members out of the reference to and referring them to God's Word?

This Forum was set up to discuss articles written by Ray Smith, he uses more scripture in these articles than any other teacher I am aware of, there is a treasure chest of spiritual truths contained in the papers Ray has written and the invitation to dispute or refute them with chapter and verse is an offer that will always remain on the table.


 If you ask me to leave or "ban" me (seems like that is always a threat) so be it.

Who has threatened you?

 I will stand on God's Word all day instead of any man's words. If that is what you decide to do I wish you all well in your journey and would beg everyone to stand on God's word because that is all that will last. People come and go but God's word never leaves.

Seminole to be fair think about your own posts, how often do you use scripture rather than your feelings? There is no one here to my knowledge who has it in for you or seeks to remove you or belittle you, the only thing anyone has asked from you is to read and consider the merits of the articles on Bible truths, if you have doubts about the worthiness or truthfulness contained in them then please quote the paper and present the scriptures that refute it. You agreed to the Forum rules before joining, should we just allow folks to do whatever they "feel" is appropriate once they gain membership?


Respectfully to all, Seminole

His Peace to you,

Joe
