You have Just been enlightened my friend. How does it feel?
This shows you do NOT pay attention to Jesus' words at all. The Sabbath day was not abolished, neither is it necessary for all to do. Never was, but still is for those to whom it applies.
Your enlightenment is not new by any means. It is a part of you I am convinced. You heap condemnation on others with your words and the funny thing is, it will be heaped back onto your own head.
The Sabbath is not EVERY DAY. It is one day of rest for those keeping the light on for those who recognize it. Keeping the Sabbath day holy everyday would be absolutely impossible and absolutely a wicked thing to say. It shows you have NO understanding whatsoever.
Keeping the Sabbath day holy is a physical light to shine for those who understand it. To say that you are keeping it holy EVERY day is a lie.
Quit talking out your arse.

Look at my post above. I spelled it out for you....with proper use of scripture and all properly in context.
I just quoted to show god knows both good and evil. Therefore, god has thoughts which are evil, if he didn't then he wouldn't know both good and evil.
The difference is what thoughts you act on, and recognition that certain thoughts are bad/evil. To understand the difference, and use your free will to choose to act on the good ones.

Wisdom is built on knowledge, understanding and experience.
How does one know good without knowing evil? How does one understand hot if he doesn't understand cold? You can't. You would only ever know if you were cold or hot because someone told you to(an authority), but you wouldn't have an idea if you were or not without experiencing and having knowledge of both. Once you have experienced both hot and cold, then you know the difference and then you choose what temperature is right for you.
And like it or not, but you have eaten from the tree of knowledge. And so you must learn both and choose.
You make it out so that the entire experience here is for nothing and has no point to it.

You wouldn't know the Word if it backhanded you right now. Let's just take a look at what the teachings of Paul have done for you, shall we??
1. You have rebuked "satan" in both myself and badmedia Ironic, considering
2. You have only supported your claims with the FALSE apostle's words, but nothing out the Tanakh from which he claims his foundation is based.
3. You have destroyed most of the attention of those who were somewhat paying attention in the beginning (which seems to be your agenda)
4. You have claimed a new consciousness... which it was the same from the foundation of the world for those in whom this rests already.
5. You have condemned people that did NOT need to be condemned.
6. You have done everything you can to deny the truth in those who might have been able to see it....
yet the fact remains as this... the TRUTH remains with or without their acknowledgement.
It is NOT the Holy Spirit in which testifies to your spirit.. that I am assured of.
The Holy Spirit = the Word and the Word was not sent to condemn the world, but rather to call to the sheep in whom belong to it.
The Holy Spirit = the Word of which you have yet to use to support any of your FOOLISH claims.

he ruined it
I remember thinking it... sensing it. I was very glad to see that my gut instincts could be trusted. There is only ONE G.d and He is not Jesus; nor is Jesus meant to be the light to the world and he was NEVER meant to be the messiah to the world. The light to the world happens to be the Jewish people (which I can also show through Scripture).

First off I still don't see where it says that Paul was God. Second, Jesus told Pilot in John 19:11," thou couldest have no power against me, except it were given thee from above..." God choose David to be king. Did you know that there is a blessing when you serve others in the Lord and when you pray for them.? Do you think leaders should be exempt from your prayers? Should we not work to better our society. I agree with another poster that spoke of obeying the laws of the land unless they go against God. When there is no leadership there is no law. Where there is no law, there is chaos because people will do what they want and who can stop them. That people will easily be conquered.
I do think you should have a personal relationship with God, as I think many here think likewise. But one thing I have learned from my relationship with God is to always speak out of love and not a condesending atitude. This whole "I have had an experience with God so I know more than you" is getting old. Maybe that's not how you mean it but that's how you come across. But the fruit that I see displayed here does not seem godly. Revelations from God are given to people to help others, not condemn them.

You do not know for a fact that Paul did not meet Jesus face to face.
I have and as such I would recognize another who has... just as the other apostles did despite their initial suspicion.
LIB.. I would like for you to show me where I said that the false teacher is the whore of Babylon. I have made no such silly claims. I find all of that to be in a whole different catagory from those who buy into Paul's teachings.
You need to at least prove I said this before riding on this assumption. It is false.
Just like Paul, you make silly assumptions. I have done more than most of you in this thread and at least backed my claims up on the same text that Paul used... If you believe his claims then back them up by the Hebrew Scriptures. Don't go around making false statements to distract please.

1Pe 2:14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.
1Pe 3:13 And who [is] he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good?
1Pe 3:14 But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy [are ye]: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;
Peter explains it just like Paul did ...

Dan 2:21 And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:

"I quoted Romans, which says that the only power is the power of god, and that the powers that be are ordained by god. It is the this kind of ignorant thinking that has lead to the dark ages and 1600 years of death and destruction. It is the same kind of thinking that keeps us in wars to this very day. It is from this kind of thinking that has lead to the claims the catholic church makes about the pope I listed earlier."
Why don't you just ask me why I do not wash my hands before eating bread? Over and over it's accusations of - you have pride, repent. You are not being nice, you do not love and so on. You do not look at me not for the information and knowledge I bring, but instead based on the manner in which I bring it? Because it doesn't meet what you consider to be a "politically correct" way of doing things? You wish for me to jump through your hoops?
I do not need or care about such heavy compensations. Yes, compensations. Heavy use of such words and "niceness" is what is used to deceive, because evil must appear to be good. And if this is the way you look and decide things, then you are asking to be deceived. Do you seriously expect that which is evil is going to present itself as anything less than nice, friendly and kissing your rear? Does it not say that Satan can appear as an angel? Go talk to a politician if you want someone who is going to be these things for you. They will feed you such things as long as you will eat it.
I am and have been as honest as I can be here. I will NOT sell myself short or settle for less than I am, nor do I wish to put myself above what I am. I am as nice as I can be, but I will not sacrifice truth for it. I will not compromise on what I know to be true for your comfort. I will not shrink down so that you may feel I am being nice.
Who is it that loves - the one who smiles and is nice, or the one who brings you truth and honesty? To which would you attribute love to?
Or as Jesus gives in the parable, which child does the will of the father, the one who smiles and says yes, but then does not do it, or the one who said no, but thought better of it and did so anyway?
If you do not want me to appear as though I am being condescending to you - then get up off your knees and quit kneeling before men. Quit shrinking for the comfort of others. Because you bow down to levels that are lower than you, does not mean I will as well. Nor will I be judged based on it. Anything which may be true of me, is also true of you. The only difference is if/when we realize this.
For any of us to lower ourselves below that which the father has given us is a slap in the face of the father.
I will not be dragged down to bow before man. I will bow and recognize the father within you, but you will first have to bring it forward."
Edited twice but I still can't seem to get my response out of badmedias post. Below is my response. One4truth
James 1:5 "if any of you lack wisdom let him ask of God, that gives to all men liberally, AND UPBRAIDETH NOT, and it shall be given him". When you had your vision from God, did He yell at you and call you ignorant? Did He speak in a condesending attitude towards you? Whenever I have sought God for wisdom, He speaks to me as a loving father to a beloved son. James chapter 3 sums up my thoughts.
I would love to learn what you have learned from God, but you cut that off with your venomus posts and replies. I am constantly trying to learn and have many questions for you, but why would I ask them when I would have to sift through your twisted rhetoric to get to it.
I don't shrink down to others, because I am on the same level as them, except God has given me some knowledge to share. That is not an excuse for a holier than thou attitude. Just as Jesus taught children out of love, I will do the same.
Jesus lowered Himself to us to teach us and bring us to the Father, so did Jesus slap the face of His Fathre? Jesus was the son of God,right? He didn't think it robbery to be equal with God.
Anyway, I have had enough of responding to your hatred to us "lower" ignorant (in your eyes) folk. In your next post could you do me and everyone else who you are trying to "enlighten" a favor, and edit out any venom you spilled when you opened your mouth. If its not too below you, of course.

Anyway, I shall reword so that my statement doesn't confuse you:
Contrary to your assertion, which is that Paul is a false teacher, the false teacher is the whore of Babylon... the church as set up by Emperor Pope Constantine... who had never given up his paganism.
By the way, did you happen to read badmedia's posts on page 31?
