Matt 8: 5-13. "For I also am a man under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to this one, `Go!' and he goes, and to another, `Come!' and he comes, and to my slave, `Do this!' and he does it." Now when Jesus heard this, He marveled and said to those who were following, "Truly I say to you, I have not found such great faith with anyone in Israel.Matt 9:2 SEEING their faith, Jesus said to the paralytic, "Take courage, son; your sins are forgiven." Faith is SEEN in it's works.
The works of faith are listed in the bible. *By faith Abraham left Ur ... *by his faith the centurion came to Christ for help, *by her faith the woman would not be deterred, by *their faith the men brought the paralytic. *Oh yea of little faith ... *If you had faith the size of a mustard seed this mountain would be moved into the sea. Faith is SEEN. So we don't have to talk about faith as if it were a mystical state kept a secret in the heart. The Bible is plain speaking, but if you are going to try to divine it's hidden secrets it will cause you to go blind and you will begin leading the blind who will hang on your every word. But when the son of man returns will he find faith on earth? |

And there arose a dispute amongst some of Johns disciples and the Jews about purification.
And they came to John and said to him, "Rabbi" "He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified - behold - He is baptising and all are coming to him!Johns reply: A man can recieve nothing unless it is given him from heaven.
You yourselves bear ME witness THAT I SAID - "I am NOT the Christ, but I have been sent before Him. (Johns disciples thought John was the messiah when he himself says: I TOLD you I am not the Christ!) He who has the bride is the bridegroom.
But the friend of the bridegroom who stands and HEARS Him rejoices greatly because of the bridegrooms voice. This scripture which you use in the form of a legal document is a narrative. The narrative is telling you that Johns disciples weren't listening to him, because he had already told them he wasn't the Christ. Then he tell's them he is happy to hear the voice of the bridegroom. Seemingly they didn't hear the bridegroom, though they associated with John the Baptist.
Therefore John exclaims - a man can recieve nothing unless it is given him from heaven. Meaning: He, John, had nothing to offer them, since he was from the earth. Jesus, from heaven, had the words of eternal life. |

How will you know if my confession is true Dopey?How were people saved in the Old Testament? By the temple sacrifice or by the blood of Christ? By the recieving of the Holy Spirit or the Word of God?
By their faith or their righteousness? Faith comes by hearing the word of God and believing - responding. Many people put their faith in evolution, in mystical doctrines of men and angels, in great men, in their own respective nations. |

"These two lamp stands of Almighty God (Moses and Elijah) will preach salvation in Jesus Messiah, re- institute the temple, its sacrifices and its priesthood." ???Dopey,the link you posted leads to lies. You need to ask yourself 'why would God want the temple sacrifices and it's priesthood re-instituted'? Please think about the serious implications of this. What will be sacrificed? Why? Is this not the final insult to what Christ did for both Jew and Gentile - for you and I - to re-institute the temple sacrifices? Jesus' death on a cross made the sacrifice of animals invalid. What are these people you are listening to really saying?? That the death of Jesus on the cross was not enough?
There are many decietful doctrines around. |
