And because I have a special feeling about this verse because it is the verse that opened my eyes to my salvation I will add it:
1 John 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.
1 John 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.
What was your question, again? Something about sola scriptura? Or did you have a different interpretation from this poster, one all your own, perhaps? Was there really any exaggeration?
But can one not ignore the teachings of the Spirit, and “not remain remain in Him, so that when He appears we may have confidence and not be put to shame by Him at his coming?”
If not, why did St. John need to implore his readers indeed to remain?
AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!
PRAISE GOD FOR THAT, CERTAINLY.
Though I wish tuition to that school was not so high . . . evidently because of my thick-headedness on occasion.
Thanks for your kind reply.
