    CEV VS KJV / Apostasy VS Faith

    Does it appear how not all Bible versions are saying the same thing whereas in this case of the CEV is saying the opposite of what Jesus & Paul says and that the CEV supports apostasy? The same can be said for changed messages in modern Bibles that supports false teachings, but I have found the...

    What Is Paul's Thorn In the Flesh?

    I believe messenger of Satan is key that many overlook when discerning this thorn in the flesh. I believe as he does mention this as an infirmity in the flesh that he did not like and wanted removed, but God would help him live his life with it, is why I believe this may bring hope to those...

    John 10:16--one flock or one fold?

    @Logos1560 & @rlvaughn John 10:1-16 is about false prophets that will cause some believers to go astray as coming in between them and Jesus per John 10:8 That can be applied to the RCC but that can also applied to putting the Holy Spirit as if He is also a door to coming to God the Father by...

    Can Jesus Cast Out Saved Believers?

    There is no barely saved or super saved. There is only saved believers and then His disciples that followed Him. That is what separates the vessels unto dishonor from the vessels unto honor to be received first at the marriage Supper of the Lamb while what makes saved believers the vessels...

    Ignore Judas Iscariot As a Thief?

    It does not matter anyway because of this; 1 Timothy 4:12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. We are to prove al things by Jesus Christ regardless of how old we are or even when reaching...

    Ignore Judas Iscariot As a Thief?

    And @JonC But when this was written? But then again, the gospels were written as inspired by the Holy Ghost so it could very well have been revealed in that way. 2 Peter 1:19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a...

    Applying Ephesians 5:18 Without Opposing Other Scripture

    In context, verse 19 has to be taken with verse 20, otherwise the reader would not know what that meant. 1 Thessalonians 5:19 Quench not the Spirit. 20 Despise not prophesyings. We are to prove all things with His help in abstaining from all appearances of evil as He can only confirm any...

    Applying Ephesians 5:18 Without Opposing Other Scripture

    The commands are linked together in that verse as being the same thing; do not be drunk with wine wherein there is excess but remain filled with the fruit of the Holy Spirit which is temperance; also known as the fruit of self control. By not getting drunk, you are to remain sober. To take it...

    Does the Holy Spirit Speak and Act Himself then?

    Reposting your Bible versions of John 16:13-15 from your post # 66 in this thread where it cites authority from which the Holy Spirit does not speak from Himself. When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he...

    Does the Holy Spirit Speak and Act Himself then?

    Left out of quote for easier reading. And when he comes, he will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment: concerning sin, because they do not believe in me; concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you will see me no longer; concerning judgment, because...

    Does the Holy Spirit Speak and Act Himself then?

    That is the NIV and not the KJV as they are not saying the same thing. Compare that with John 16:13 in the NIV and may God give you pause. Note the grammatical error in Romans 8:27 in the NIV where he is separated from us that searches our hearts is separated from the Spirit in knowing the...

    Applying Ephesians 5:18 Without Opposing Other Scripture

    Ephesians 5:18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; KJV This is not teaching believers that they need a continual filling of the Spirit but to avoid getting drunk by not drinking wine in excess. This is Paul saying be don't get drunk, but remain sober...

    What Is Paul's Thorn In the Flesh?

    Doesn't everybody get the battlefield of the mind? But with Paul.it was more than that. I am sure he had asked others to pray for him regarding this & God told Paul no and why.

    Ignore Judas Iscariot As a Thief?

    Not sure how anyone can judge someone as stealing in the past unless they knew he was stealing in the past.

    Does the Holy Spirit Speak and Act Himself then?

    Since scripture does not go against scripture, you are reading Romans 8:26-27 in the KJV wrong because it says not even His groanings can be uttered; hence He cannot speak for Himself by uttering His groanings. So how you apply Romans 8:26-27 to mean goes against what ALL Bible versions is...

    Does the Holy Spirit Speak and Act Himself then?

    That goes to point; even if I find one.. you would still be required by the scripture to prove everything by Him, are you not? 1 Thessalonians 5:21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. 22 Abstain from all appearance of evil. 23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I...

    Ignore Judas Iscariot As a Thief?

    But then, hindsight would mean they had noted it and ignored it, would they not? Surely one of the disciples in seeing that, would get mad and take the bag from him to make sure the poor gets help, but knowing Him & His words, I can see why Jesus was not offended by it, and why His disciples...

    Does the Holy Spirit Speak and Act Himself then?

    @Yeshua1 & @John of Japan Reprove by scripture or don't. Look at all the other Bible versions in what John 16:13 is saying & meaning. John 16:13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and...

    Can Jesus Cast Out Saved Believers?

    Granted, that would apply to commitment to follow Christ and the Promise Keepers' program and such where the Christian in their zeal are led into bondage in doing His work in us by the deeds of the law rather than living by faith in Jesus Christ to do it in being their Good shepherd to help...

    Can Jesus Cast Out Saved Believers?

    Only referring to how you are applying his writings to mean as the same thing in regards to the topic at hand for those climbing up another way in John 10:1-16. It is not.
