Another thing, my spiritual gifts God has blessed me with is prophesy and discernment. I know in a few mins if I'm dealing with a believer or not. Thats not bragging but using a gift I was given. Also, the gift of prophesy is not always predicting the future (which I can't, but there are many signs of the future to come), but it speaks to my personality on how i perpetuate my thoughts to people. I'm not a preacher or evangelist, but my thought processes are similar.
If you notice, i always try to back up my statements with Biblical verses. God help me if wrongly use them out of context. You should not get alarmed if I challenge you.The Bible says to be strong in the Word and courageous. You should be willing to debate me with your own verses if you have knowlege. If I make you feel uncomfortable, you should ask yourself why? If you are grounded in the Word, you should have no fear of debating me. I certainly dont know everything about the Bible, but I do know a good bit of it. Im very strong in the basics of what a believer should know.
I hope by challenging you or others, it makes you study your Bible more to see if I am right. I will call you and others out, if you mis-quote the Bible or mis-construe it, to win an argument. Too many liberals mis-quote the Bible for their own argument. Every verse is not literal but thats what they choose to argue with. " Do not judge , lest ye be judged" is their most common. Thats not what that verse means, it is not literal. It means don't judge why someone did a particular thing or their motives. We are not God, only He knows why people do things. There is nothing wrong for judging a person if they committed a sin. The Bible says, "Open rebuke is better than secret love."
btw....what is so wrong about a pastor telling his people who he votes for. If he is ashamed of it, he probly is voting for the wrong person. Im glad i have a pastor that is that open with his congregation.He always tells us to be sure the politician lines up with the Bible. How can you go wrong with that advice?
If you want a more toned down response than what you see by my posts, pm me....We can talk by phone if you like.
