Witness the "all" of me
Bible and The Comforter | Scribe

Posted on 10/17/2009 4:39:18 PM PDT by Jedediah

A manifold witness I have placed in you ,

All that is faithful and true ,

A oneness of The Father and I in one breath ,

Can you imagine this depth ,

For what once rested upon me ,

Was the one and the three in complete harmony ,

And so it is even now My fullness with you ,

For as you witness me all 3 come through ~ ~ ~

John 15:26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

John 16:6-12 (King James Version)

6But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart.

7Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

8And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:

9Of sin, because they believe not on me;

10Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;

11Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

12I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.

John 20:22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:

1 Corinthians 4:18-21 (New King James Version) 18 Now some are puffed up, as though I were not coming to you. 19 But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord wills, and I will know, not the word of those who are puffed up, but the power. 20 For the kingdom of God is not in word but in power. 21 What do you want? Shall I come to you with a rod, or in love and a spirit of gentleness?

No, good an answer. Then what is with the posts you throw up? Vanity? A need for attention?

No not all simply sharing and you are not being forced to read any of it .

If you read it you will see it agrees with the word of God . It is meant as encouragement

LOL, it often strikes me as narcissistic drivel mixed with random cut-n-pasted scripture verse. No rhyme, no reason. Clearly a few here find value - interesting to me that the few include the UFO lobby and the virulent anti-Catholic KN group. Glad you repudiate any claim of prophet.

1 Corinthians 2:15-16 (King James Version)

15But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.

16For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? but we have the mind of Christ.

Asserting something that is brazenly thoroughly demonstrably untrue about another FREEPER/POSTER/BELIEVER

is outrageously bearing false witness, imho.

Thankfully, I’m not keeping that score. God is.

And yet the Pope is real. Go figure.

You have no more proof of that than I have that UFO's are real...Go figure...

When Pope John Paul II died it was stated that he had personally seen by more people than any other person in history.

You can opine that the Pope is not a Christian, the anti-Christ, or whatever else you want. But to say that he doesn't exist is simply absurd and to say that his existence is no more provable than UFOs is comical.

Talking about someone without pinging them is considered bad manners on FR.

The Dignity of John Paul II in the way he handled his Parkinson's disease, only because he was in the Spirit, is a model for all Christians as is the life of Mother Theresa.

So, you agree that there is proof of his existence?

Yes, if you agree he had a personal relationship with Jesus Christ our Lord.

Evangelizing is not my only role or calling.

Given the layers, tanker ship loads, train loads of

VERY MEAN-SPIRITED, HAUGHTY, HARSH, VICIOUS, POISON FILLED FAULT FINDING hereon

it's clearly not other posterss' chosen role on this thread, either.

It's one thing to articulate an error--call a spade a spade--even forcefully--even fiercely.

It's quite another to take out the knives, razor blades, spears, cat-of-nine tails, acid, cacti spines, . . . particularly with great haughtiness, blood curdling hostility, trashy self-righteousness . . . on and on and on and on.

And those who can't see the difference . . . are in worse shape than I'd realized heretofore.

Perhaps I have a unique perspective. Because of my personality, style, calling, a collection of factors . . . and human nature? I probably get 8 to 10 TIMES the hostile assaults on FR that the next most attacked person gets--if not more. Often, it's without any intervention by any mod--perhaps because they think I give as good as I get or maybe that my uniqueness is such a hate attractor that what else can I expect etc.

Nevertheless, that's been the case--almost from the beginning--though more folks caught more flack from more people back then generally. Actually, things are better now. Though this thread is a real corker.

If there was some way to talk about Quix without Quix being me, I would but there isn't. I just happen to be the most vivid example.

SOME FOLKS, A PERCENTAGE OF FOLKS ATTACK ME--ESSENTIALLY--for the same reasons they attack JEDEDIAH.

NOT BECAUSE OF STUFF IN EITHER ONE OF US OR IN OUR POSTINGS though both are plenty flawed often enough.

NO! THE ATTACKS COME OUT OF THE HEARTS THAT ARE DECEITFULLY WICKED. And that would be all our hearts.

However, some are more undealt with than others. In some, the wickedness is given more air time, more control, more free reign, even. And in some, even the wickedness is called righteous; the evil is called good. That's a very dreadful state to be in. A very frightful state to be in.

It has persistently been the case, for much of my life, that God has used me to surface junk--to cause crud to float or fly to the surface to be seen more vividly in all it's ugliness--whether in groups, families, organizations or individuals. Many times, all I had to do was walk in the room. Seems to be something spiritual. Thousands of clients and students see me as bringing out the best in people. However, there is that interesting side . . . that seems to happen reflexively with me merely being around.

I assure you--GOD KNOWS THE DIFFERENCE IN THE ATTITUDE OF THE HEART . . . TO THE NTH DETAIL--THE TINIEST NUANCE. And it MATTERS--TO HIM.

BLESSED BE THE NAME OF THE LORD..

OH, conscious and unconscious fears of fairly intense levels may well be at the root of a lot of the hostility on such threads and against a lot of

PENTECOSTAL/CHARISMANIA etc.

However, Scripture gives no excuse for such fears having such full sway as motivation or acted out anything.

THE LORD REPEATEDLY SAYS TO FEAR NOT. We are to take our fears to The Lord. . . .
