[quote:DGN:MV8yMDU0MjEzXzM0NTMwNDk2X0VENjU5OTZC] [quote:Anonymous Coward 23018191:MV8yMDU0MjEzXzM0NTMwNDE4X0MyMDQzRTY0] most religious people walk blindly thru spirituality and never work on themselves. they are followers, not leaders. [/quote] Right and as foretold they follow whatever religious philosophy a clergyman sells that's appealing to the market; "Therefore Jesus said again: “Most truly I say to YOU, I am the door of the sheep. [b][i]All those that have come in place of me are thieves and plunderers[/i][/b]; but the sheep have not listened to them. I am the door; whoever enters through me will be saved, and he will go in and out and find pasturage. [b][i] The thief does not come unless it is to steal and slay and destroy[/i][/b]. I have come that they might have life and might have it in abundance. I am the fine shepherd; the fine shepherd surrenders his soul in behalf of the sheep. [b][i]The hired man, who is no shepherd and to whom the sheep do not belong as his own, beholds the wolf coming and abandons the sheep and flees—and the wolf snatches them and scatters them—[/i][/b] because he is a hired man and does not care for the sheep. I am the fine shepherd, and I know my sheep and my sheep know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I surrender my soul in behalf of the sheep." Jo10:7 [/quote]
Original Message
"But a physical man does not receive the things of the spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot get to know [them], because they are examined spiritually. 15 However, the spiritual man examines indeed all things, but he himself is not examined by any man. 16 For “who has come to know the mind of Jehovah, that he may instruct him?” But we do have the mind of Christ." 1Cor2:14
