You have blindness when you don't see that the Jews didn't want to give up the purification works of the law.
They didn't want to believe that Jesus is the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.
They wanted to keep living by sacrificing lambs to take away their sins.
I pray for you, but I won't ever stop talking about the truth.
Judging? You want me to go through all your posts to me and show you judging?
No such thing what you say. Paul argued and debated boldly and publicly. We have to go by what Jesus says, not by what your false teachers taught you.
The blindness in our discussion is an errant NIV & NASB version of yours for why you cannot see the truth in His words as kept in the KJV. Jesus had shared the warning from the Father that we will need His help & discernment which Bible loved Him to keep His words for us to follow Him by and to use as meat in discerning good and evil by.
John 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. 24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.
Since we agree that the Holy Spirit will not use God's gift of tongues for speaking unto the people by turning it around for His own use by uttering His intercessions out loud, we compare the NASB with the KJV.
All Bible versions has this truth for John 16:13.
John 16:13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth.
He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. NIV
John 16:13 But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth;
for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come. NASB 1995
John 16:1313 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth:
for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. KJV
Okay? All Bible versions testify that the Holy Spirit cannot use God's gift of tongues for His own use by uttering His intercessions out loud from Himself. Now we go to Romans 8:26-27.
Romans 8:26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for,
but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. 27 And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because
the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.
Romans 8:26 In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should,
but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; 27 and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the [
a]saints according to
the will of God. NASB 1995
Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought:
but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. KJV
The NIV & the NASB just testified that the Holy Spirit can utter His own groanings out loud from Himself in giving His intercessions whereas the KJV maintains the truth in His words in John 16:13 by citing that the Holy Spirit cannot even utter His groanings from Himself. In the KJV, this explains how the Spirit's silent intercessions ae given for each and every believer by how this "he" Whom is Christ Jesus that searches our hearts per Hebrews 4:12-16, is the One that knows the mind of the Spirit to give the Spirit's silent intercessions to the Father due to the truth that Jesus is the only Mediator between God and man per 1 Timothy 2:5 as it is Christ alone that answers prayers so that the Father may be glorified in the Son for answers to prayers per John 14:13-14. That is why everything that the Holy Spirit does in the ministry and in the Son's answers to prayers, the Holy Spirit gives the credit & glory to the Son for, per John 16:14-15.
Scripture cannot go against scripture for why discernment from Him is needed to see the actual meat in His words to discern good & evil. So the NIV & the NASB is wrong. Wrong, Wrong. Wrong.
Here is something else the NIV & the NASB is wrong about.
1 Peter 3:21 and this water symbolizes baptism
that now saves you also—not the removal of dirt from the body but
the pledge of a clear conscience toward God.[a] It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ, NIV
1 Peter 3:21 Corresponding to that, baptism now saves you—not the removal of dirt from the flesh, but an appeal to God [a]for a good conscience—through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, NASB 1995
1 Peter 3:21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also
now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but
the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ: KJV
Pledge is hardly an appeal nor vise versa and so discernment is needed from Him by discerning what that response actually is that saves us by going to 1 Corinthians 1:17-18 & 21.
1 Corinthians 1:17
For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel—not with wisdom and eloquence, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.
18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
21 For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him,
God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached
to save those who believe. NIV
1 Corinthians 1:17 For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not in [
a]cleverness of speech, so that the cross of Christ would not be made void.
18 For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who [b]are perishing, but to us who [c]are being saved it is the power of God.
21 For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not
come to know God,
God was well-pleased through the foolishness of the [
d]message preached
to save those who believe.
NASB 1995
1 Corinthians 1:17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. 18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but
unto us which are saved it is the power of God..... 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching
to save them that believe. KJV
Since scripture cannot go against scripture, the truth maintained in 1 Corinthians 1:21 in the NIV & the NASB 1995 & the KJV can be seen whereas the notion that we are in the process of being saved is in error in the NIV and the NASB 1995 but not in the KJV because the KJV is testifying to Paul's and other believer's current state
as saved since having believed in the preaching of the cross of Jesus Christ.
So 1 Corinthians 1:21 in the NIV & the NASB is contrary and opposes how 1 Corinthians 1:18 & 1 Peter 3:21 testifies in those Bible versions for why the false teaching you are under is why you do not see the evil for doing a pledge to God which your pledge is about what you are going to do and not about believing what God is going to do per His New Covenant and denying what He has done for all those who believe in that preaching of the cross because they are saved.
If you do not believe that about the Bible versions being wrong and the KJV has it right, then what about Romans 8:26-27 being wrong in the NIV & the NASB 1995? Are you going to concede that the Holy Spirit can now use tongues for private use just to defend that pledge to God or will the Lord help you swallow that pride in yourself for trying to keep a pledge to follow Him and instead rest in Him & all His promises to you to help you to follow Him by faith alone?
You cannot do both. Either you are following Him by keeping that pledge or you are following Him, believing Him to be the Good Shepherd & Friend that He is in helping you to follow Him because you trust in Him to keep His New Covenant to you? One is resorting to your own power and denying that power as coming from Him for how you are following Him while the other is testifying of Him as your Good Shepherd in seeking His glory for how you are following Him.
Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Romans 10:1Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. 2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. 3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. 5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.
Romans 4:13 For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith. 14 For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect: 15 Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression. 16 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,
Romans 9:31 But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness. 32 Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone; 33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and
whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
Galatians 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
Galatians 3:11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith. 12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.
Romans 3:19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
By your pledge & the breaking of it, is the knowledge of sin for why it is not of faith but of the law.
