Now what - WHAT?
Scriptures, what Scriptures? - You guys think that the "GENERIC" Scriptures are to be used in personnel situations; Not so. "Generic" Scriptures are use in "general" situations and can apply to "anyone": "GENERIC"! -. Try some Scriptures that YOU CAN apply to ME specifically; and I’ll do the same to YOU!
For instance, -- 1 John 4:1 KJV -
You seem to just talk from your own heart, and not from the heart of the LORD. - Try me by the Lord’s own heart; the WORD OF GOD. You can't be in error that way, but are in error every other way.
Paul – 062210
2 Timothy 2:24-26 KJV And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, 25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
