Since the thread we were on has been flamed so it would get moved to the back room (plus an even worse, and very vulgar, natural-woman FRmail to me from the same poster), I reply to you here.

Your #201: So that's all it takes, huh?

If you were Jewish, challenging something Jesus said in the New Testament, I would say the same thing. It is all about Scripture that actually is the Word of God, but you do not yet accept it as such. You should inquire of the Lord concerning it, that you may know for yourself and not take my word for it.

Sometimes as the still small voice bears witness, people do not recognize it for what it is. Only later do they realize that the Holy Spirit has been witnessing to them for some time, as in the following:

Luke 24:30-33
30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.
31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.
32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?
33 And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,

1 Kings 19:11-12
11 And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake:
12 And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
Other times people say they were called many times but they would not hear.

HMmm... It worked just fine for me just a while ago.

Besides, moving it to the 'backroom' hurts nothing, unless one considers it 'hidden' there, where an innocent lurker probably would not be going.


All my replys are back at the old thread, I don't think my dog has been entered in the fight on this one.........
