2 Tim 3:16 "All scripture is given by inspiration of God is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction for instruction in righteousness"
This is my hearts desire that people would have clarity in discernment but this starts with staying in God's word. One of the hardest things for people to do is stay in God's word the bible. They will read everything under the sun to try to understand it but not read it for themselves and asking God to show them Him. Many times i have sat under a preacher to only hear what just did not sound right and learn that they had taken some verse out of context or was actually teaching a completley false doctrine altogether.
The rain falls down on the believer and the unbeliever..\ many clergy do well..why not? God provides for his own. my family and i have done well doing God's work.
just rememmber skip that just becouse a guy on tevelsion claims to be a christian does not make him one. This is why I do not let pastors lead me I spend time in God's word and know the truth first so that I can spot a counterfeit.
skanfel...you are brave in answering my question..:) thank you first for taking the time to tackle it. Nobody else has so far. which is why I should just do a thread on it all by itself.. in order to explain away this..one has to add to the scriptures ... 2nd thing is you said you have not murdered anyone? Right? Well the bible states in matt that you have ever been angry with a brother you have commited murder in your heart..Have you ever been angry with a brother?
