Anyone who doesn't agree with you, you claim is deceived. How do you know its not you that is deceived? Wouldn't someone who is thoroughly deceived claim to have the gut feeling, but not be able to rationally explain how they know their ultimate source of truth is actually the truth? |
Ras..your just going to have to re-read it until you get it..rather now or a year from now..my hope is you will one day see..
Your sadly and blindly looking right over my reasoning at to why I believe the word is the way the truth and life. I specifically said..I know because on bended knee and before almighty God..he assures me to the truth. This you will not understand..also something you need to figure out on your own..
The second half of what you said is because the scales on your eyes have not been taken off. The ultimate source of truth is God..it is not for me to explain the way for you to find your own salavation..your either feeling the struggle now as we talk..or you have begun to harden your heart. When people get close to the truth of finding out they are not of the Lord the immediate responce is..conviction..condemnation..or they begin a path to being convinced. So I leave what it is that I have shared for you all to figure it out now..as you will stand before almight God at your demise..and you will be accountable for what it is you now know.
I should like to say..I will no longer cast my pearl before swine..as they bible speaks..but since I too waddle in the muck and the mire..who am I to say such a thing and it is so that I too am swine. Until this life is over..that is when I will be free of the chains that bind me here and no longer be slave to a world that will continue to de-nounce Christ until his second coming.
