>> How is the translation going wrong between what we clearly SAY and what others hear us saying?<<

I keep reading through these posts and watch as one side posts scripture to substantiate their view and belief and the other side posts kindergarten picture posts. One side posts scripture in context and the other side posts youtube videos. It’s becoming more obvious in this day and age that strict adherence to scripture in context with an understanding of who the writers were writing to is paramount to avoiding the deception we have been warned is coming in these last days.

I sooo agree with you on this matter...and it's more than important, it's critical in understanding what the scriptures are saying in order to understand the truth as it's being presented.

This does require more than flipping thru verses in a "word" study. Too many do that in order to support their belief.....God will use them not only to encourage and guide us but to correct the errors of our beliefs when we are searching for truth...the key is do we want the truth or do we want popcorn Christianity jumping from one scripture to another.

The fact is the movements spreading across our nation and the world now are based on "experiences" and touted as the NEW REVIVAL...when in fact those who are caught up in this will find it's heading decidedly toward them falling under the anti-Christ and his prophet miracles and wonders which will be showcased.
