I know The Word and don't need youtube to tell me one thing when I HAVE THE WORD!! Why isn't it 'enough' for you? Why isn't JESUS The Word enough for you that you need 'man's teachings, also.

Those people in the bible show how they reacted to GOD - they believed HIM and His favor flowed!! And they accepted 'the assignment' on their life - and each of us has one. The same as today - we are to HEAR and OBEY HIM alone - and how many do? That is the will of The FATHER.

How many would be as faithful as Joseph, for example. He had a dream, believed it, spoke of it and his own family/brothers left him in a pit because 'he thought he was special' and then lived as a slave and thrown in jail and for 13 years kept that one dream alive - because GOD was HIS FINAL authority. He didn't believe anyone but GOD knewGod.

HIS ONE dream was enough for HIM!! You have the WORDS of JESUS for YEARS and still listen to 'man' and are persuaded by 'man'. You would never have been thrown in a pit, etc - and been able to do the things Joseph (and others listed) did. And Joseph would have missed his destiny if he listened to another! And many many do miss it because they don't believe JESUS and ONLY JESUS! Only those that are able to do the Father's will are those we hear and obey ONLY HIM!

If you claim Jesus is your Savior - then how could you possibly listen to anyone else? Why would you? Either you believe JESUS is LORD over all or HE isn't. There is NO a little of this and a little of that. Either His Word is your FINAL authority or it isn't. God's WORD IS the Final authority or you don't believe HIM.

And you get no title for it - being 'one of HIS' and spending LIFE eternally with HIM should be enough. It IS for all those who do belong to HIM and they are called Christians - those who listen to Jesus The Christ ALONE.

Oh my goodness. What are you complaining about? That Youtube link is an exposition of Scripture. You know, the Word.

No more on this, I'm through. Bye.
