Cool story.

I was in South America on a mission trip.In the middle of the rain forest and the middle of no where. We finally came to the village we were staying for 2 weeks. The last thing we did to get there was cross a piranha infested river on an old ferry.
The first night of preaching one of the villagers wanted to be baptized. We walked down this narrow path to the river. He wanted his local preacher to baptize him. Me and twelve other people were the only white people in a hundred mile radius. Anyway, the two of them go wading out into the river and I say, "What about the piranhas?" They both look at me and the preacher says, " Don't worry, Brother, they only like white meat. We'll be fine."

A wonderful God we have providing proof from the book that he provides multiple means for His creation to experience personal salvation. That is proof in my mind and heart that faith in the Bible alone is an inadequate faith.

Salvation is an inner work of God in a person, not rigidly following and spouting pompous understanding and opinions from a religious book.

However useful the Bible and other religious artifacts, rituals, and traditions, written and oral, were in my life. Until God did the inner work to my innermost self I remained lost, when He did the inner work I finally surrendered to and experienced His personal salvation in my life.

If all I had was this comment for instruction to be a Christian, I'd be buying @Box Ox a beer.

Wah wah where is your verse in any of this wah wah.

Wah wah verses verses verses wah wah.

Are you convinced that any life run on self – will can hardly be a success?

You follow a book, with a lot of faults and metaphors with room for interpretation. Not Christ.

I firmly believe that there is a deceptive trend in Christianity to try to push Christ off His throne and try to place a religious book in His place.

My faith is that it is God who saves us not religion.

Oh my brethren,

Please remember God’s unconditional love for you is enough to cover you for the racist, hatred, consistently spewing up from your heart on the BC.

I will to pray for the very denial of this hatred that you have stated and have justified making fun of people according to your sense of humor, even now on this thread.

You may deny it, but it is clear evidence of some hatred spewing up from the overflow of your heart.

To God, glory and praise!

I firmly believe there is a deceptive trend to destroy Christianity by denying the inspiration and authority of the Bible which God gave to inform us of his Son, his sacrifice for us, the establishment of his Church, the necessary steps to enter his Church and live by the precepts he has given us to guide us to spend eternity with him.

"Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber."

John 10:1

Do you even have a personal relationship with the Christ who dwells in you?

or

Just a relationship with a Christ who dwells in a religious book?

Why do you continue to give authority to religion when all authority has been given to Christ?

Religious texts even teach that!

You may deny it,

You may accuse it. You have no idea. You are the

the racist, hatred, consistently spewing up from your heart on the BC

You are so blinded(hate) by me disagreeing with "your faith" you fail to see the truth of anything. You're pitiful. Your flowery blow spells have reached the point of nauseating.
Yeah, man. I spent my time, money, labor, got snake bit and worked with lost souls converting them to Christ because I'm a racist.
The piranha story was hilarious and set the stage and opened the door. I was the "piranha man" the whole time we were there and they loved to watch me go in the river.

We were helping build a house for one of the members(he was disabled). It was framed up with old saw mill lumber from somewhere. It was small, but two story(8 ft). Me and 4 others were on the second level, the hand made rickety ladder fell to the ground. When we were done for the day, the 4 brethren sat at the edge of the floor and effortlessly jumped to the ground.
Not me. I said "How about the ladder?" One brother, as he was putting up the ladder for me said "White men can jump!"
Hilarious.
Get over yourself, blowtard.

@Integrity

How do you know this feeling /experience is the one? The God feeling/experience that means you received personal salvation and had the inner working of God.

In all your blow, you failed to answer once again something you are asked. Straight answers to straight questions fail you.

 

[Integrity]

You evidently missed the sarcasm in the comment of the experience/ feeling one has on the crapper. I'll try this...

It is by faith.

What's by faith? The feeling? The experience? When God is "inner"?
Sounds blind to me. What do you base this"faith" on?

I actually see the complete opposite. Removal of parts of the book & an uplifting of man.

The "red letter" group was formed because Jesus never spoke about lgb & they saw this as an opening to affirm lgb as ok with God.
The modern spiritual movement which started in the early 1900's has created volumes of deception worldwide & used god as a profit machine for their own benefit, it could have been avoided with some biblical discernment.
Those are just a couple examples.

God.

 

[BrownFlush]

God.

I'll ask again.
How do you know the ''feeling'' is from God? Will I have a different "feeling" than you? Are all the God "feelings" the same? The ones that say I have received salvation or are they different? What if I called a "feeling" a God "feeling" but I was wrong. Can one be wrong and think he got a God "feeling" when it wasn't?
Seems like you're heading to the spin cycle again.

Please follow carefully..
"So then FAITH comes by hearing the word of God" - The Holy Spirit of God in Romans
Faith is taught and developed by hearing the word of God. Your feeling based faith is very dangerous. You "don't know".You reject the teaching of scripture about what faith is and a faith that pleases God and not yourself. One can "know".
You want to get feeling/emotion? Get emotional about what the word of God actually says.

Are you suggesting that the Bible is previous to faith in God?

 

[BrownFlush]

I'm suggesting nothing.
The Bible claims for itself we cannot know the faith that God is pleased with and wants us to have without the Bible.
