Re: God's strength knows only the limitation of you not receiving it.

Vektek, this post was not for you. I already know that you don't believe that parts of the Bible are for today. Please realize that there are many of us that do believe and do covet earnestly the best gifts as the Bible tells us to do. I just thought that someone may be blessed by the word and may even have desperately needed it. I didn't think it would start an argument because you said you would not respond to my posts that you do not agree with.

Vektek, many of us who post here, as well as the readers, love you. We can see that you love Jesus and have contributed much to the Christian forums. The problem is that many of us are not going to take a giant step backwards in our faith to go along with your beliefs. I just don't love you that much. We love Jesus more than we love you. We desire more than anything to please Jesus and to attain all that He wants for our lives. I plan to go as deep into the things of the Lord as I can whether you approve of it or not. Those of us who know the truth of the matter I'm sure feel the same way.

You can say I am using a line like your husband did. It can only be a line if it is not real. Many people do only have a line to offer others. I have more than a line. My experiences are real! I hope that someday you will see that, but if you don't I will chose Jesus and all He has for me any day over you. And yes, I still love you.

Verses from
1 Corinthians 12 (King James Version)


12 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.
2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.
3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.
4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.
7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:
11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.
12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.


31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.
