An arguement involves name calling, insults and disrespect. Gospel of Jesus Christ is the Truth. The Truth needs no explanation. It is just Truth. The "Holy Spirit" does NOT agrue the Truth.

Posted : 16 Feb, 2012 06:44 PM I guess they one could argue there is a difference, but I don't believe you could justify a debate any more than an argument. The whole issue attacks the integrity of the written word, and if one is born again and alive unto God it would be hard to debATE TRUTH. Post Reply

Posted : 16 Feb, 2012 07:56 PM It is impossible to debate the truth the truth which is the word of God stands on His own, when it turns into an arguement it brings confussion and name calling and insults, it doesn't do any good. This must be our guidelines presenting our position. 2 Timothy 2:14-16 14 "Remind them of these things, and solemnly charge them in the presence of God not to wrangle about words, words, which is useless and leads to the ruin of the hearers. 15. Be deligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, handling accurately the word of truth. 16 But avoid worldly and empty chatter, it will lead to further ungodliness". THE PURPOSE OF THE WORD. 2 Timothy 3:16 "All scriptures is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness" The word is not to be debated or argued, we get and angry and leads us to sin. The Bible teaches "Be angry but do not sin" If we are going to teach, we must do it in the love of Christ, to correct we must do it with a gentle Spirit, or else it is unprofitable. Honestly I learn some things from some threads on this forum but a lot of the arguements make me sick. Post Reply

We are also taught... 2 Timothy 2:23 But avoid foolish and ignorant disputes, knowing that they generate strife. And a servant of the Lord must not quarrel but be gentle to all, able to teach, patient, in humility correcting those who are in opposition, if God perhaps will grant them repentance, so that they may know the truth, and that they may come to their senses and escape the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him to do his will. We are to �contend (fight, take a stand) for the faith� (Jude 3), but this instruction refers to �the foundational truths of the faith� about Jesus His birth, ministry, death, resurrection, and His soon return. Titus 3:9 But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law (gospel), because these are unprofitable and useless. Warn a divisive person once, and then warn them a second time. After that, have nothing to do with them. You may be sure that such people are warped and sinful; they are self-condemned. Good topic Scott:applause: Post Reply

Posted : 16 Feb, 2012 11:19 PM I want to say something too, when I read scripture I am reading the exact same words everyone else reads. If I read something and I think it says one thing and you think it says something or means something else THAT DOESNT MENA I AM AN UNBELIVER DOUBTER OR HAVE LESS FAITH THAN YOU DO!! Just saying it obviously happnes and I feel just as strongl;y as you (whoever0 do about what you think it says, If I for one second thought I was wrong about what I believe a particualr scripture sasay it said that anymore I wouldnt say it said that anymore, so the bottom line is we should resoect each other ,I feel just as sytronly about what I believe on certain things as you feel about what you believe on certain things and I dont think thats any reason to call anyone an unbel;iever! I think thats a terrible thing to call someone who says they love the lord bide as well call someone an idoloter or sinner or say they are unsaved I am not by any means suggesting we are all right I am saying if I thought I was wrong I wouldnt say it, it doesnt make me an unbeliever and the chances are just as good that you are wrong as they are that I am wrong being hat we both ;love jesus so I just would think we as all suposed to be christians could keep the name calling to a minimum. thanks:glow: Post Reply

Posted : 17 Feb, 2012 05:52 AM Name calling must not evening exist in the things of God, when we judge or condemned one another it is not only against what the Bible teaches but it is childish and sinful I wish some of our kids can come and see the way we interact with others on the forum, they will not be proud. Let us have our discussions as guided by the word of God, to help and carry each others burden , imagine knowing all we know and still end up in hell. Wow. Sin is sin, judging others, looking down on one another, thinking that our faith more than others, all these are sinful acts and rememeber God will judge us according to every word that we speak. Let us give, show and act in love, we are Sons and Daughters of the King, Godbless us all. Post Reply

Posted : 17 Feb, 2012 06:10 AM Elisha here is food for thought: There is only light in the word of God There is no darkness One can be in unbelief on any subject and not be an unbeliever, man's priority is to be very pliable in the hands of the lord, resisting any right to be right, let the lord always be the truth. The problems start with the mind, mainly an unrenewed mind on any topic. Wrong Thinking will produce Wrong believing every time. There are never any half truth's, if any portion of truth is altered it is then a lie. Unbelief has two sides at least to it: Some are hard hearted on Topics, refuse to hear the truth. Some are ignorant and just don't know. Post Reply

Posted : 17 Feb, 2012 03:46 PM Most people on here don't know the "differance" betwix the two because they have never been taught or learned. Thre is NOTHING wrong with discussion/debate of Scripture...thats how people learn and come to a understanding in mind as well as spiritual for some...What is wrong is a people Pressing and Argueing to the point of Non-Sense or Reason...Even our God and Lord finds this...well...bad behaviour and un-loving...thats my two bits...yall hava Blessed weekend...xo Post Reply
