You can post supporting scripture all you want, but you must realize that much of it is in vain because many do not take the bible to be the final word of God.



(KJV)

The scripture quoted above is "scare tactics". My God does not sink to that level.


I do seek guidance from God, directly from God. It IS possible to do this and by-pass the scripture.

God light is all about mercy and greatness, the pureness form of Goodness, their for i cannot see such a mighty god stoop to such a level... i agree with cozy

That is certainly your prerogative.[/QUOTE]

Lighterr, On post 105 you have quoted me from post 101. However you have confusingly put your reply in orange as quoted by me..

The following is how it should appear, and I would like to go forward in discussion, if you would care to answer.






Discussion continued: The belief of Kabbalah in what I have knowledge in understand, is an example of spiritual divine simplicity. The belief is a following by people who choose to believe of God as being without parts.
So I do realize the following of belief you have chosen.






Continued discusssion:This tends to discernment in what you feel the Catholic Christian does in the glory of God. And I believe we have a right to discern between right and wrong. Many people follow their own belief, and many different Christain following are out there for choice.

The Bible as in scripture is a more direct path in what I follow.. as a child of God answering the calling of God, to follow the Father's will in confession of Christ as the begotten Son of God.






Broken down, I felt the Bible was included in your belief, and the first book of scripture I had referanced because you spoke of man created in the image of God.

So Genesis 1:26 speaks of the plural image of "Let Us" and "Our " in plural likeness of who man is created.

Clearly I feel this plural image that God is speaking to is Christ, and the plural likeness of both is the Holy Spirit.

Who do you feel us is? And the our likeness is?

Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

ok i think i understand your question now. This is how i see it, God made us in his image,and gave us power over everything on this earth. God created us to be like him we are all God's in our own right. When adam fell from the glory of God and began to take his information from the tree of knowledge and not the tree of life, we lost focus and the ability to tap into God's light, that direct access to god was now not readily available. That is why JESUS came to earth to show us the way to god, the de-vine creator. Jesus is no one saviour in this life we got to use his ways to get to God.

we are all God's in our own right.

God created us as His creatures, not as His equals.

When adam fell from the glory of God and began to take his information from the tree of knowledge and not the tree of life

Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of Life to gain immortality, not for information about anything. That's why God kicked them out of the Garden, so they wouldn't keep eating from the Tree of Life and be immortal in their sin.

SndBay:

The Scriptures, on the whole, require discipline in our faith. That is to say, we are servants of God. Servants normally don’t tell the master how the servant wishes to believe in the rule of the house. How then does one reason men have the latitude to ‘believe as he wishes’? In the same vein, if there is one Truth, how then can we pervert that truth to hold whatever one desires? Is there a Protestant Truth, a Catholic Truth, or an Evangelical Truth?
