Although there is beautiful instruction, principles in religion and the are many religious means to seek the living God in Christ Jesus, the God-man , religion alone apart from Holy Spirit means nothing.

God alone, from whom all things come means everything.

The main instruction I see from the Bible, is the truth of without God personally moving in a person‘s life through the Holy Spirit, the Bible itself is impotent in one knowing God, or understanding God in the way God’s love seeks us. You may find God through religion, through reading but I believe if when you find Him you claim Him to be bound to what you found Him through, you will be binding yourself to the very thing and not to Him.

Bind yourself to Jesus, abide in Him. Not in religion, not to a religious book.

Although I do love the book so!!!

The "religious book" was given to us by God. It's our guide to learning what we must do to be saved. All you wrote above has no meaning without a Biblical foundation. You're making it up as you go.

minister barber already did and i quoted it

Did you? Where?

Exactly.

Yes the Bible is a religious document.

The Word of God is Jesus.

May you experience His love, His peace, His joy.

You’re trying your best to do the circle dance, but try not to go there…..So what the writers recorded in the 66 books of the Bible as the Holy Spirit ( this includes what Jesus said , He being the Word incarnate) gave them utterance is not the word of God?

 

[BrownFlush]

Do you truly like making fun of people?

I said I did. Why are you asking

I know I once thought I did, God showed me in my innermost self that it was destructive to keep justifying that behavior.

Ok.
He showed me in my outer most self how to use it for constructive behavior and to teach infidels. Funny how God uses different people with different abilities to teach against the error of others.

May you experience God’s love for you today and always!!

I did this morning thanks.
May the truth hit you between the eyes so hard you’ll look up and say, “ man was I stupid!”

That is your opinion, I disagree with you.

God is the giver of all things so saying the book was given to us by God is not that remarkable of a statement.

I only seek to follow Jesus.

God can speak through it, but is it God speaking, yes and no , as the Holy Spirit enables understanding and hearing.

Just checking.

Amen. God does what God does.

Jesus is the Truth.

Again you downplay the importance of the Bible in Christianity. Just as you downplay the importance of the Apostles. Why is that? Is it because there are verses that clearly condemn sin and some of that you don't accept as sinful? Making it up as you go along because you refuse to recognize the authority of God's given scriptures to us.

You place religion above God. I don’t recommend that my friend.
