It is a wonderful feeling, isn't it!!!I rejoice in what your son has begun to find. I remember how it felt for things to finally start falling into place.
I have erased nothing.
Once AGAIN, you are dead wrong about me.
Just like you are with so many others.
For someone like you, no reason at all.
Were we not just now warned against continuing to derail this thread - what; are you special?
Back to the issues at hand - questions about one passage or another, lol
Rom. 5:8
Acts 17:11,12
Yes you were.
Are you?
You assert I was the only one being warned - that only reveals your double-standard.
All I did was attempt to encourage the guy to consider the use of various study principles.
You and yours took offence, and made an issue where there was none; as usual.
Lone Star, as I found out long ago: you can't go wrong looking into study principles like the ones I pointed out; they're very helpful in helping one sort out what's what, in one passage or another.
They are often just as helpful also, not only in helping one sort out where and or how one ended up off, but where or how someone else was able/unable to get at the proper sense, or not, of one passage or another.
All of which greatly aids one in one's own studies of one thing or another.
I'll leave this at that.
The best towards you in your exploration of The Word.
No offence intended, none taken.

I remember when it happened. Was reading, and struggling, with Stam, THINGS THAT DIFFER. I'd been told to feel free to bleed red ink all over it, and I had. After reading it, I told my wife "I will NEVER believe what these people believe." (that was a true IFB talking). But there was something to it I couldn't put my finger on, something I recognized as true that, I confess, I wanted to be able to refute but couldn't yet, so I was being a stubborn bulldog about it.
Was on break at work, sitting outside on a bench as the sun was setting. Was reading BAPTISM AND THE BIBLE and some point he made hit me between the eyes and it's literally like a light came on. And here I am.
There's a lot of material out there that can help someone access the Mystery if they're looking into it seriously...even to disprove it, but also if they're honest with themselves about actually considering what they're reading. Some are better, some too dense for a newcomer. The one that sticks in my mind that I later read, which I said, "THIS is something to help someone else," was Bob Hill's little booklet on the Rapture. That was before I'd even heard of the Open view but I don't think there was anything from that angle in that book. Anyway, even for someone who already was MAD, it was eye-opening (obviously it likely wouldn't help anyone who didn't already believe in the Rapture). I gave away my one copy long ago and wish I had more. No idea if they're still available somewhere. Darkish cover, cheaply printed, but worth its weight in gold.
The Pre-Tribulation Rapture Unlocked by the Mystery by Bob Hill (actually, Robert T. Hill).

I agree. I can remember all the things I'd put up on a shelf unable to find any immediate answers. Coming here to TOL has allowed me to take so many of them things off the shelf. Wonderful.
