What do you think of this ?

"And when you know the man's religious complexion, you know what sort of religious books he reads when he wants some more light, and what sort of books he avoids, lest by accident he get more light than he wants."

-From "What is man" by Mark Twain.

If we were all filled with the Holy Spirit ,no longer carnal
we would only need one book
Precept has to be interpreted by Precept ,
must be studied line upon line ,
go hand in hand with all the rest old confirmed by the new
The 2 major prophecies have the interpretations provided
But yet people prefer a man to tell them what it says
So the results is we do the very things were told to avoid ,conducting ourselves as we see fit and follow traditions of men ,,and read book upon book ,,yet say we don't need to study for ourselves the book that equips the saints ,leads to salvation ,,all by itself
Its purpose is for edification ,CORRECTION ,and reproof
Which means if somehow we have gotten off coarse ,it can guide us back ,,but you need to actually be converted ,willfully submitting yourself totally to God ,then it will all make sense ,,

1 Corinthians 2:14 King James Version (KJV)
14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

1 Corinthians 1: 10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, [b]that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.[/b]

Then we could claim this promise

2 Chronicles 7:14 King James Version (KJV)
14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; [b]then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.[/b]

But lets all just read another mans books and ignore the author of the one that counts ,,


Ecclesiastes 12:10 The preacher sought to find out acceptable words: and that which was written was upright, even words of truth.

11 The words of the wise are as goads, and as nails fastened by the masters of assemblies, which are given from one shepherd.

12 [b]And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh.[/b]

[quote]13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.[/quote]

14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.

Have a blessed day

@Wraithorn my intent was not to get you to think like me
I would hope others would study it for themselves
and get on one page or another and think like Christ

Then we can claim the simple promise ,,

since I see now land being healed ,,

The part about the condition of the world in the last days
will just keep happening ,which I have a heads up
Its going to get much ,much worse .

if anything I say does not ring true ,,count it my opinion
its your post ,you can even delete it

it wasn't for you ,but it may have been for someone who needed to hear it ..

My prayers are longer then that ,it was not close to a sermon

Have a blessed day

@rckt148 It's all good bro. I'm happy to have helped you appease your inner conscience.

If you wonder what I mean by that then please read the story by Mr Twain.
