Southern Baptist Convention Throws Out Saddleback Church

[UnionStrong]

Definitely not going to waste my time typing.

I already waste enough of my time on the BC.

Cherries are ready to be picked

Cherries are ready to be picked

 

[DriveInDriѵeOut]

From serving as clergy. I’m sorry. I thought that was the context of the conversation.

Some people engage in the conversation in a disingenuous way, like by saying SBC doesn't allow women to serve.

 

[upschuck]

No that is where contributed my own meaning and understanding of a written code.

Didn’t read the summary and don’t plan to.

Believe what you want , I won’t tread on you.

So, you believe what you want, when it fits in your life view. Great way to better yourself.

I, on the other hand, change when confronted with evidence to the contrary, always trying to better myself.

Ok thanks.

Way to go.

What, you wrong? Never, ever, ever admit you're wrong. Someone will question your integrity.

Ok thanks.

Way to go.

You should try it it’s pretty cool.

Rom 7:6

Means in Christ we serve in the new way of the Spirit, meaning we serve through the power of God's Holy Spirit with us, a power we did not have access to before. It's not the written code of the law (the bible) that we serve, trying to follow all of its rules and regulations. Instead, we serve the living God.

The law in the text is the Old Testament (Law Of Moses). It is not talking about how you serve Christ in a new way.. It's talking about what the Spirit has brought us about Christ and what he did to the old law. The new law is one of grace and faith.

John 14:16-17
I believe this means that the Holy Spirit, is available to those who believe in Christ. In fact, I believe this Spirit "indwells" those who believe.

There is no doubt the Spirit dwells in us. The Scriptures teach this plainly. The question is, how does the Spirit dwell in us?

"Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me?" -John 14:10 Is God literally in Jesus? Is Jesus literally in God?
"I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me." -Galatians 2:20 Did Jesus literally live in Paul?
"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.- Colossians 3:16 Does the word literally dwell in you?
"You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him. But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness. If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you." Romans 8: 9-11 Is Jesus literally in you? If not, why is the Holy Spirit literally in you, but Jesus isn't?

There is only one God, one Jesus, and one Holy Spirit. To have deity literally dwelling in you an incarnation would have take place.(Mary/birth of Jesus)
Please find a passage where the Holy Spirit was literally "in" someone. I've yet to see it.


When were you baptized with power (from the Holy Spirit) to perform miracles?(one of which would be the ability to hear the voice of God's Spirit personally and directly) What did you do? Where and what happened?
What did you remember about what Jesus said to you? Which gospel did you write? What miracle can you do? Did it look anything like Acts 2 when it happened to the Apostles as Jesus promised to THEM?

You have strong opinions of what it means to teach.

I agree he does have strong opinions about his interpretations. But really that is all they are opinions. That is my opinion at least.

We are all entitled to them.

 

[upschuck]

Ok thanks.

You're welcome.

I don't understand, do you care to elaborate?

For sure. If you can't back what you believe with the Bible when it comes to religious matters, in my opinion, it's not even an opinion. It's imagination.
So you don't have an answer to the comment? No answer to any of the questions in #408?

You should know by now he doesn’t answer questions. Besides, he’s got a new best bud, el correcto. Lol. Can’t make this up. Lol

It kind of tells you something when he sides with atheists

You are entitled to your opinion. I do not limit God to tradition as you do.

I love various religious traditions but I definitely don’t limit God to any institutional church or religious tradition. May the Holy Spirit be your guide.

So you don't have an answer to the comment?

Please refresh my memory to the precise question. I can’t promise but I will do my best to answer it.

Sorry I only quickly scanned your reply, nothing jumped out at me.

Same as above.

Sorry.

Break each question down and answer. You seem to not have a problem dissecting comments. Have at it.

That posting length and style doesn’t work for me. If you can condense it or break it up I’m all in, if not them no thank you. Sorry.
