Re:Lessons from Job - Shaihulud's essay - 2004/09/24 21:29

Amen to that one SoC. Yes Shaihulud also agree that it is faith that is going to save us. That is belief in that which is not seen or visible. We have been pushed into putting our faith into something visible and which supposedly will edure. When in fact we are told that this is a city that will not continue (Heb13:14). This is I think part of the great apostasy, that the Society will continue and be the salvation of the people so that it may be said: "Look this is your God, O Israel, who led you up out of the land of Egypt" (Ex 32:4)

Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. If anyone thinks he has acquired knowledge of something, he does not yet know it just as he ought to know it. But if anyone loves God, this one is known by him - 1 Cor 8:1-3 |
