But Jesus did clarify what the works of God really are didn't He.
John 6:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
Thank you for saying what I was thinking. God bless.
"Do whatever he tells you."
We believe God’s Word not some group. Y’all never, ever back up your beliefs with His word, so it seems that y’all can not. Mary was not sinless so why should she be paid more attention, except as the mother of Jesus. Jesus is the way, the only way, not anyone else.
This site is for everyone. If y’all do not want discussion from others, go to a Catholic site so everyone will believe like y’all.
It was just backed up with Scripture here.
Check #43
You need to check out #43 too.
Here's a start.
He never taught us to pray to anyone but the Father. God the Father that is.
Luke 11:1-2 Now Jesus was praying in a certain place, and when he finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples.” And he said to them, “When you pray, say: “Father, hallowed be your name.
Matthew 23: 8-10 But you are not to be called rabbi, for you have one teacher, and you are all brothers. And call no man your father on earth, for you have one Father, who is in heaven. Neither be called instructors, for you have one instructor, the Christ.
That does not say worship Mary. It says to obey Jesus. We all should.
Thanks for repeating my point.
The one she carried in the womb, Jesus, says you are wrong...
uk 11:27 And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked.
Luk 11:28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.
1Co 4:6 And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another.
Why do you think your religion's words should cancel out the words in the bible???
Why would you think Christians would sit by while you post lies from another source on an open to the public religious forum???
ohn 6:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
John 14:15
If ye love me, keep my commandments.
21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
Jesus goes on to say.
24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s which sent me.
Matthew 22
34 But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together.
35 Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,
36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38 This is the first and great commandment.
39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
Jesus was not talking about the letter of the law here, he was putting it simple.
So I do not believe we have any disagreement but we need to realize that although Jesus did not give us a bunch of don`ts, he did give us some do`s.
And if we believe in him we will try our best to do the one`s he gave us which is why James said I will show you my faith by my works.
Mathew 7
12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
This is how we keep the two greatest commandments and of course I fail miserably even though it is such a small thing.
Many people will say that they follow Jesus in all things, if they do not do these things maybe they should just say they are trying to follow him.
Why?
That's what Jesus addressed her as when He even bothered to do so.
Quit whining and have YOUR post PULLED!
That creature your chosen religion has invented just BEGS to be bashed!
Do you have the Book of Luke in your Bible?
Read Luke chapters 1 and 2.
