if it is not in the Bible why is it believed and accepted except to blatantly create division - twinc
 
So some can build their resume of faith.

The Bible is not a carnal book, it is a Spiritual Doctrine.
Some things that men say are not in the Bible, are in the Bible. They are just not looking for them.
And some things that are in the Bible are rejected and called something else to make the Bible say what they want it too.

Actually, from a purely human perspective, pride seems to be the force at work behind false doctrine. And it is the fall out from that pride that then creates division and discord.

So-called teachers of the word will think a doctrine exists that's Biblically defensible, but then they are corrected and shown to be wrong. And instead of acknowledging that they were wrong they, out of pride, refuse to acknowledge their error and create more and more falseness to defend themselves. Arrogance seems to be the reason people latch onto and refuse to give up doctrines they have been shown to be false.

It's a scary thing. The narcissists of the world are who cause the pain and grief in this life. Not because they're the only one's who do, and think, and say bad things, but because they are one's that you can not reason with when disputes and conflicts arise. Out of sheer pride, they'd rather dig in, knowing full well they're wrong, and resist to the bitter end. Peaceful reconciliation and an arriving at the truth is impossible to do with them.

Jethro pretty much said it all. If God did not say it then we need not believe it. Each of us has a Bible and should have the indwelling of the Holy Spirit that teaches us all things as we do our own homework so we are without excuse on the day we face the judgement seat of Christ to give an account of all we have done and said, Matthew 12:36,37; 2Corinthians 5:10,11. Satan is very clever as he teaches a different doctrine twisting the word of God as many would rather believe a lie as they blind themselves to truth.
 
hang about a mo or two and learn we are not even indwelt by the HS and this is not in the bible and exactly the opposite is and to say and accept so is unforgiveable and blasphemy - btw it is also not in the bible that Mary had children other than Jesus - twinc
 
it is also not in the Bible that Christians must be born again - this is a vast and widespread latter day Protestant money making/monkey making innovation and addition - wincam

So you dispute these scripture?

Romans 8:7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. 8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. 9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. 10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

John 3: 3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
 
I agree with turnorburn. I seems to me that you are doing what you accuse others of doing....

the point is you must stop doing what others are doing and not apply to yourself or others what does not apply to you or them - wincam

I do not dispute Scripture - what I do dispute is the many claimed inspired way out, weird and wacky interpretations attributed to the HS as the cause or fruits of division, confusion, divergence, disunity, contradictions etc - a slipshod careless reading of scriptures, as also my post is the problem so I repeat what I have stated and in this case that at Jn.3 it does not say that Jesus said a Christian or Christians must be born again {as Christians} - twinc

But you are disputing scripture twinc when you say..

"hang about a mo or two and learn we are not even indwelt by the HS and this is not in the bible and exactly the opposite is and to say and accept so is unforgiveable and blasphemy - btw it is also not in the bible that Mary had children other than Jesus"

"it is also not in the Bible that Christians must be born again - this is a vast and widespread latter day Protestant money making/monkey making innovation and addition"
 
certainly not - you and others who say so are causing major problems through careless and slipshod reading and study and interpretations of scripture and claiming and blaming the HS for your so called inspiration - come home now - wincam
