Orthodox Christian, allow me to remind you and others of your "pig's rectum" comment, and how by this comment you absolutely and utterly defeated any little credibility you may have possesed by exposing how contemptible your present speaking is.
Your crass and unholy worship of an anti-Christ man-made religion (crass in such activities as the kissing of pictures, and unholy in your uplifting of the ways of men as a replacement of God) serves as the evidence that may been seen regarding the source of your inability to put aside the ways of your fallen flesh.
Your callous butchery of scriptures, into which, in the most common way of the apostate institution, you attempt to impose the speaking of men above God's pure word is nothing less than the miserable issue of your holding to and serving of a religious institution that has no ground in Christ.
And what is not of Christ is only of His adversary.
Fact is, the "best" that you can do is present Webster's dictionary,.... and even then, only according to the lie of God's enemy.
Again I say, when you start talking about the scriptures without subjecting them to your love of the things of men, then maybe all here may find a worthy crumb or two in your words.
Until that time, all should see that your desire is not for God.
That said, let's expose you some more.....

I'm not sure, Thess, but I think CJ has basically said that you guys have it wrong.
Is a man "wrong" for continuing to wear the tighty-whitey style underwear that his mother first introduce him to as a child, or should he have moved on to boxers?
The adding of leaven is a common thing with men concerning their regarding of God's word,... even Christ (remember Him) told us this.
Moses "added" the 2nd hitting of the rock to God's instruction of just speaking to it.
Remember Moses,.... the guy who lead the Jews out of Egypt?
And lets see, who else,...... oh yes, Jacob, after being told that God would be with him, Jacob still tried to control the situation by sending the women and children before him.
And David, the one who was after God's heart, remember him too,.... David thought he could add a little adultery (kind of in the manner the religionist conduct themselves in a spiritual way) to his relationship with God.
And John the Baptist,..... first he declared the arrival of Jesus, then he declared the person of Jesus,...... and yet,...... when he was placed in jail he decided to question if this man was really Jesus.
But let's see....
Of Moses God said he will be the one that judges the Jews.
Of Jacob, God said He loved him and then brought forth His earthly children out of him.
Of David,... well, we should know that Jesus' earthly kingship can be traced back to David.
Of John the Baptist, he who first declared God and then question God, declared there was none born of the womb that was greater.
But you, oh proud and mighty religious warrior, defender of the apostate nation, it would seem that you are unable to free yourself of the "many small cords" that bind you, and thus also serve to confuse you, regarding many things, but in this case, regarding the matter of right and wrong.
Orthodox Christian said:
He gives no rationale for this position, other than some discussion of what may be a recipe for bread.
And should we expect anything better from you?
Scripture is clear, your darkness has no relationship with light.
Fact is OC, you're a whiner who really can do no more than throw make-believe stones at my speaking.
Orthodox Christian said:
Fortunately for him, he seems to have access to the Holy Spirit in ways you and I only dream of- for he, himself, is able to single-handedly test that which is pure and that which is 'leavened.'
OC, Paul declare very clearly that he had found the secret,.... and even more, he then told us all this secret.
But I know the hardened ears of a regionite can present a great hinderanc to the hearing and thus receiving of the truth.
And as a religionist you, in a hidden way, hate Paul and the completing ministry God placed in him.
Orthodox Christian said:
I pointed out to him before that his eschatology points to a sort of purgatory, but he didn't like it any more then than now. In his response to me, he referred to me as a slave to the Evil One.
And quite rightly so. For you did not point me in the direction of truth but in the direction of Satan.
Little one, try to understand this,..... my "eschatology" rejects the added leaven of the false doctrine of purgatory.
Tell me, do you believe that a the time of a saint already in purgatory stay can be shortened by the efforts of another person?
And this example is but just a meagre ounce of the pounds of leaven that have been heaped upon the truth concerning the further discipling of a stubborn slave.
Orthodox Christian said:
Apostolic Christians, let none deceive you- especially those that cloak themselves in the mantle of the prophet.
And none is worse that the corporate prophet of the apostate religion, the one who calls its man-made ways the way of the church of God; and its workers of iniquity.
There is a good reason we have been given the Lord's speaking on the one called Jezebel.
Revelation  2 : 20, "But I have something against you, that you tolerate the woman Jezebel, she who calls herself a prophetess and teaches and leads My slaves astray to commit fornication and to eat idol sacrifices."
Note - The woman here (Jezebel) is the same as the one prophesied by the Lord in Matt. 13:33. There the woman added leaven (signifying evil, heretical, and pagan things) into the fine flour (signifying Christ as the meal offering for the satisfaction of God and man). This woman is the great harlot of Rev. 17, who mixes abominations with the divine things. Jezebel, the pagan wife of Ahab, is a type of this apostate church.
And what was one of the trademark ways of this Jezebel......
1 Kings 18:4,
"And when Jezebel cut off the prophets of Jehovah,..."
..... One of the trademarks of Jezebel is found in her efforts to "cut off" the prophets of Jehovah.
Lets read again the religionite's words....
OC says,.... "Apostolic Christians, let none deceive you- especially those that cloak themselves in the mantle of the prophet."
This is the speaking of Jezebel.
OC attempts to set up the strawman, for I have never made any claim to being a prophet.
Yet OC,...... God's word, that which you know nothing of, says......
1 Corinthians  14 : 1, "Pursue love, and desire earnestly spiritual gifts,
but especially that you may prophesy.
1 Corinthians  14 : 3 ---- 1 Corinthians  14 : 6, "But he who prophesies speaks building up and encouragement and consolation to men. He who speaks in a tongue builds up himself, but he who prophesies builds up the church.
I desire that you all speak in tongues, but especially that you would prophesy; and greater is he who prophesies than he who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets, that the church may receive building up.
But now, brothers, if I come to you speaking in tongues, what will I profit you, unless I speak to you either in revelation or in knowledge or in prophecy or in teaching?"
See saints, Jezebel lives, she is alive and well in the corrupt hearts of the religionists.
Paul, he who's speaking the religionists would dearly love to hide away, declares......
desire earnestly,..... especially that you may prophesy.
But OC the religionist attempts to craftily stiffle this aspect of our walk with God.
In fact, it is in the stiffling of the prophesying of the saints that the apostate institution has wreaked terrible damage regarding the biody of Christ.
Read and understand what Paul says.....
... he who prophesies builds up the church....... I desire that you all speak....... but especially that you would prophesy;
Saints, God has declared, that which comes out of a man defiles him.
Matthew 15:11, "It is not that which enters into the mouth that defiles the man;
but that which proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man.
In OC's words we can see the truth of God's declaration.
Speak OC, for the more you speak the more clear your corruption becomes.
In love,
