"YES!! Whatever obstacle in my way is a mountain."

No, sir, you have not moved a mountain. You may think you have solved problems, or resolved conflicts, or dealt with some other difficult matters and doing so constitutes "moving mountains", but you have never moved a mountain. When you have done so, get back to us.

"God NEVER says anything that cannot be done. "I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me". If one doesn't believe it, the problem rests with them and NOT God's Word - EVER."

And, if you think that Paul meant "all things" as in lift the Empire State building, then you have demonstrated a complete disregard for the context of these writings. You are dangerous.

Your fanciful hermeneutic allows for the Bible to be teaching most anything. It does not. However, those for whom its message is hidden will claim all sort of kooky understandings. Your work is in that category. I suggest you take a long course in good biblical interpretation. However, God may not permit you to see any clearer than you do now.

YES I have and do it daily! Sorry, to hear your life is so difficult.

When you have done so, get back to us.

You mean you, not us. Who would ever want to get back to the faithless? "Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to HIM must believe that He exists and that HE rewards those who earnestly seek HIM." Heb 11:6

And, if you think that Paul meant "all things" as in lift the Empire State building, then you have demonstrated a complete disregard for the context of these writings. You are dangerous.

God has not put the desire in me to lift the Empire State building as it wouldn't give HIM glory. Why would something of destruction come to your mind? Destruction comes from the evil one. REPENT and CHOOSE LIFE! If not, one goes into default mode which is death/destruction.

Your fanciful hermeneutic allows for the Bible to be teaching most anything. It does not.

And yours hermeneutic shows a complete lack of faith. God's Word teaches what HE wants us to know through the Holy Spirit. Believe, repent and then get caught up. Your choice!

However, those for whom its message is hidden will claim all sort of kooky understandings. Your work is in that category.

There is nothing hidden - only to those void of the Spirit and that is where you fit in.

"The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned." 1 Cor 2:16

One void of The Spirit making a suggestion? LOL!! I suggest you take a long course in good biblical interpretation. I see where the long course got you. Get your money back!

However, God may not permit you to see any clearer than you do now.

I see the have and the have nots and the reason why!

"But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for MY power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me." 2 Corinthians 12:9

Thank YOU, JESUS!!
