God is creating (present) man in His image?
Lightseeker:
f,
I had a equally witty comeback for your last post. I delayed lunch to write it. As I was about to post it, the Spirit said don't...go to lunch. So I did. It was there that I was convicted as to my attitude and last comment.
--- Quote ---Frank: What can I say except I'm too busy to respond to one who already 'knows it all'. Having spent 2 years working on the kill floor of a packing plant I know that iron only sharpens iron if someone knows how to use ‘the steel’. Keep defending 'your' faith. God bless.
--- End quote ---
The conviciton I felt, was the Father saying, "I love to see my children play...I take no pleasure in their fighting." I next had a vision of 'the steel and the knife', in His hands. These words followed, "Except the steel and the knife are both yielded to My hand nothing is accomplished."
You can take the above for what it's worth to you, but with it I offer my sincere apology for the above quoted comments, as well as the one I didn't post. I also feel compelled to cease dialogue with you until free to do so. I hope you understand.

I appreciate the humility and honesty of this poster.
ertsky:
but what about the doctrine!
this is a message board, the bible truths message board !
we can post all we like, go too far, not go far enough
but what about the doctrine?.
howabout yes i am a trinitarian?
or no i am not a trinitarian?
sometimes i get a bit frustrated that some do not seem to want to get the doctrine right.
to directly address the one thing we can easily address
THE DOCTRINE. not the style of manner, the niceties or lack thereof.
a straight answer to a straight question
coming to the bt boards and saying god is a triune being is WHAT!
quite alright ! should go unchallenged ?
2Jo 1:9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
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.
test the teaching, test the doctrine

ertsky:
let's get this straight
Rev 2:14 But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.
Balaam taught Balac that if he could just get God's people to allow a few false doctrines in then they would be easy pickings !
commit fornication = allow false doctrines in unchecked and unchallenged amongst the people
this is important
even more important than many want to know, the verse starts
Rev 2:14 But I have a few things against thee
OH WE LOVE YOU LORD, WE LOVE EVERYONE,LOVE LOVE LOVE
oh really, then why don't you defend yourselves and your brothers against false doctrine.
WHY AREN'T YOU FAITHFUL TO MY WORD ?
in Love
f
Joh 13:34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
Rev 3:19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
defending the doctrine is a very important attribute of Love
Joh 10:12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
Joh 10:13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
Joh 10:14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
Joh 10:15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
Joey Porter:
I am certainly not a trinitarian but I still don't have a complete understanding of the God/Christ relationship. So I won't condemn another who doesn't. Obviously if someone came out and said they believed in the trinity, I'd have to tell them that it's an unscriptural teaching of pagan origins. And if they continued to defend the trinity concept, I would consider it an idol.
But I created a separate thread on Christ's deity/origin and I see that no one here seems to have a full grasp of it. In fact, if you see my last post in the "Was Christ Created" thread, I'm not sure that Mike has the correct doctrine on this issue either.
