   No one can have from God what they aren't given. Plus those with hardened   
   hearts cannot receive what they refuse to believe or accept.

   How would you know one way or t'other? Seems to me he often says that he   
   trusts the Holy Spirit the most for all his understandings. Fact is I have   
   read his posts, infrequently, and heard him say that Strongs as well as   
   Thayer inject the doctrines of men into their understandings, and Strong's   
   more frequently than t'other.

   Oh the unmistakable sign of the Love of God! Not.   
      
   What you appear to misunderstand the most is, is that these things are not   
   definition per se' but word usages per contextual understandings. Like   
   'Bass' is it a fish or a low note?

   Your words are no more valid than his, when it comes right down to it.   
   What makes the difference is the understandings as given by the Holy   
   Spirit. Even Jesus did not declare his own words as what is proper, as he   
   said repeatedly that he spoke only that which was given to him by his   
   Heavenly Father. Same with the works that he did.   
      
   You? the words of AI and a weak and poor translation of the Bible. Those   
   are your authorities that you use. And all your understandings you openly   
   declare stem from the minds of men. None of which is ministered with   
   *Love*   
      
   Did you ever understand the relationship of the Two Comforters?   
   I found that impressive, Outstanding, as a matter of fact.   
   They both operated the same, Jesus with the disciples, one on one, while   
   he dwelt on earth, and the Holy Spirit upon them as well as all future   
   believers from the day of Pentecost forward unto the end of this age. As I   
   understand that, the Holy Spirit as not slacked off from his Job, nor has   
   his power diminished plus it is all needed now more than before as the   
   enemy has come in like a flood knowing that these are the last days, and   
   the word of God has spoken in that He will lift us a standard (sign)   
   against him in these days. In other words, he will not leave us as   
   stranded orphans any more than Jesus left the 12 orphaned.
