Why are there so many 'Special needed and illiterate" students or people that dwells in so many years in the elementries of The Bible.

[Reba1]

Now that is the difference between "meat and milk". One should be content with the one he or she can digest. Because both can produce fat on your bones. The problem arises when one does not have the teeth to chew meat, although he likes the smell but fell to realize you cannot gum meat properly enough to be able to digest it as it should be. It just might strangle you and no one is there to do a "Heimlich Maneuver" on you. I do see some are choking already

So if you can breath a little or speak, "Cough"! and next time, when the "quail" fall, chew your meat , nice and slowly.

Shalom, you have just been serve.

goof grief . Whole lot of nothing

The same thing they said about Jesus in the "Synoptic Gospels". and they wanted nothing to do with him. And He declared to them the only reason you have come to me, is because you wanted food and i gave you food you wanted healing and I healed you. And that is the only reason you followed me. And you paid no attention to my words. And when they heard his words they no longer followed him. For the bible said; for hid the meaning of His words from them. Throughout the Gospels no one was born from above besides "John The Baptist"! All others where not. I do believe the word of God teaches.

You might think the "Christ" that I believe in is a lot of nothing. But i don't! An your words have been well document within the "recored BOOKS IN HEAVEN" And will be presented against me. But i hope your words will be proven false that is a cast against me, That I might be Justified in using "anthropomorphic words' in Christ to convey "His" truth and not my own. So did the Old Testament "Prophets" so did I""

Just because a person does not understand a "Language" does not mean HIS words are a "Whole lot of Nothing"! "Biblical idiom", Biblical vernacular" and Biblical Imagery is the Language of "Original Copied Bible Manuscript". For the language of GOD is not printed for every man or woman. It has many affects upon mankind. And it was not created to please or tickle mankind ears, But what GOD has said, in His own words. And the Gospel was not after man but to please GOD.

"Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. "Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day. "For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. "Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them. Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me. This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your ancestors ate manna and died, but whoever feeds on this bread will live forever.” He said this while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum."

They thought Jesus was a madman! wanted them to be "Cannibals"!

"On hearing it, many of his disciples said, “This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?”
Aware that his disciples were grumbling about this, Jesus said to them, “Does this offend you?"

"From this time many of his disciples turned back and no longer followed him." [The words Jesus spoke to people even His own family, thought He had a "Mental Problem"!]. walking around claiming to be the Messiah without a kingdom and dirt poor, living and raised in "Nazareth" and only having one set of clothes and didn't even have a house! And when he Died His mother had to go live with "John"! saved others and could not saved his own self, declared others.

The people did not understand for God Had even blinded those that believe to a certain point, declared also the "Word of GOD".

 

[Reba1]

The same thing they said about Jesus in the

You are not Jesus.

You might think the "Christ" that I believe in is a lot of nothing.

I never suggested such a thing. The liberal deflection of your words are very telling.

English Standard Version

Par ▾

1Now concerninga spiritual gifts,b brothers,c I do not want you to be uninformed. 2You know that when you were pagans you were led astray to mute idols, however you were led. 3Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking in the Spirit of God ever says “Jesus is accursed!” and no one can say “Jesus is Lord” except in the Holy Spirit.
4Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; 5and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord; 6and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who empowers them all in everyone. 7To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. 8For to one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit, 9to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, 10to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the ability to distinguish between spirits, to another various kinds of languages, to another the interpretation of languages 11All these are empowered by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as he wills.
One Body with Many Members
12For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. 13For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slavesd or free—and all were made to drink of one Spirit.
14For the body does not consist of one member but of many. 15If the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body. 16And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body. 17If the whole body were an eye, where would be the sense of hearing? If the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell? 18But as it is, God arranged the members in the body, each one of them, as he chose. 19If all were a single member, where would the body be? 20As it is, there are many parts,eyet one body.
21The eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you,” nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.” 22On the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, 23and on those parts of the body that we think less honorable we bestow the greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with greater modesty, 24which our more presentable parts do not require. But God has so composed the body, giving greater honor to the part that lacked it, 25that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another. 26If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together.
27Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it. 28And God has appointed in the body of Christ first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, helping, administrating, and various kinds of Languages 29Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles? 30Do all possess gifts of healing? Do all speak with Languages ? Do all interpret Languages? 31But earnestly desire the higher gifts.

God is referring to the Body of Christ He is not talking about "the Institutional Church"! Man exalts the "institutional church" Over the body of Christ". God gave gifts to the body of Christ. The Bible declares the 2 are not the same. Man claims they are the same. For i am not a "Anti-Christ"! For i am "pro-Christ"! "Sola Christus"! For I exalt Him and Him Alone!

Jesus did say this i know:
"Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even The Least of Them, you did it to Me"

 

[Reba1]

Jesus did say this i know:
"Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even The Least of Them, you did it to Me"

Then maybe you should be more careful about how you speak to others .

Then maybe you should be more careful about how you speak to others .

And you are accusing me for defending the "Handicapped and the spiritual illiterate" in "Christ Jesus" as a evil act and ungodly. For over 44 years i have fought for those in letter and deed in Lecture in defense of my brothers and sisters in christ, against those who thought they were unworthy to be called even a "Child of GOD". Laughing at them behind their backs in the churches of America. Who have refused to give them a voice! These Christians that has thought they are so great and GOD's best, calling themselves teachers of righteousness. And have neglected the "Spiritual Challenge" and thought them to be unworthy, and fell to realize GOD Has Also Gifted them, with "Spiritual Gifts"! How many times have many taken the time to listen or make room for the "Spiritual Challenge" to exercise their gifts that GOD through the "Holy Spirit" has given them for the "Edification" of the body Christ". But Only counted those that are "HANDICAPPED" AS THE ONES IN NEED OF HEALING!". It is a shame how the Christian institutionalize church has treated my brothers and sisters in Christ throughout the years I have notice. The hundreds of stories i have heard through their mouths how they have been treated. And How those who think they are Whole, have treaded the ones, GOD has place more honor upon.

The thread was a question, To get my Brothers and sister to think! But it seems most has become so "worldly", and "Fleshly" in their minds and are stuck on the things of this world. Politics, Hedonism, entertainment, Eating out in Restaurants, Vacations, Houses, Lands, Bank accounts, Retirements, Social Security, Big Family dinners, "Covid-19" Vaccinations, what news stations is the beat, What Political party is Christian" who is the most Christ-Like Candidate. Who is the GOD man, Is he 'Handicapped". in physical or "spiritual form", What denomination does he or she belongs too. What Gender are they, are they "remarried, adulterers", are they fornicators are they membes of the "LBGTQ" community, are they RCC member are they "Calvinist", once saved always saved, " Save today damn to tomorrow", "Commit Adultery today, tomorrow, where are your accusers" Adultery's are not going to condemn their own selves. 'Birds of the same feathers stick together'!

Now here I have taken a page out of the Biography of "Thomas Aquinas" and put on his garment. And has been label a rebel. For being in defense of The "Gospel According to Jesus Christ" and deem a "Apostate".

For trying to get others, to exercise their minds into spiritual thought patterns instead of the "Perishables". In which is a "Command" by GOD.

Romans 15:3
For even Christ did not please Himself, but as it is written: "The insults of those who insult You have fallen on Me."

"Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, existing in the form of God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped,…"

Sorry, if my Tread was over someones head. it was not to be conceive in worldly terms.

So in essence, let us end this conversation, in the "spirit of peace". and let it become "Dead".

Proverbs
"Without wood, a fire goes out, And where is no whisperer, contention quiets down"

Shalom.
