GOD resists the proud and gives Grace to the humble. If one comes to the scriptures arrogantly then they will see through a legalistic lens. If one comes humbly then GOD Graciously gives the ability to see Truth. The Word of GOD is alive!
It's how you analyze historic documents
You look for things that support it
With all due respect you're both spouting some shite
Looking for historical arguments for theology is futile to say the least
Try to rely on the anointing of the holy spirit to teach us
Ey mate I'm not saying anything about Christianity. I'm just saying these claims border upon the nonsensical
well if the world was able to understand, then the world would understand. right?
Yes
some things are spiritual, and cannot be understood physically.
Sure, but you don't need to rely on the Spirit to explain Christian theology
You can - you just don't have to; and something tells me, DrPeper ain't gonna accept the spiritual.
the bible says dont rely on your own understanding, theres that to consider.
The trinity is very important to Christianity
To rely on God's
The Spirit is still your understanding
You're just carving it up in a different set of semantics
right, the spirit is what we should seek to draw our understanding from, but be careful when you start seeking spiritual advice, some spirits only want to kill you
I reject the existence of the spiritual
lmao
A posteriori arguments are hard to make when I can point out experience csn be delusion
i wonder, was i as inquisitive as you ?
Think of it this way: you had an experience. That's true.
there were others who witnessed the same thing when i experienced it
its not like an only me thing
Ok, what was the experience?
No one can deny that. But why call it spiritual? You're stepping out of "this happened" and into "it must be this."
It could be a million people who hsd the experience, wouldn't make it any more or less spiritual
i saw a being of light that flashed neon colors watching me and some friends hanging out
it moved fast like a bolt of lightning
Sounds like electricity to me
this being of light took on the form of a gnome
What context? What were you been doing then?
about 3 feet tall and stalky
playing power rangers in the yard is what we were doing
Tbh
Millions of people also "experienced" whatever it is they claim the SS did
we saw it turning its head and looking at us, then running to the other side of the yard and looking at us again
What does the SS have to do with possible spiritual experiences?
So how is this spiritual? Why are we dubbing it has anything to do with spirit? Light sounds pretty physical to me
