Parting

[MoreCoffee]

"Is not the whole land before you? Please separate from me; if to the left, then I will go to the right; or if to the right, then I will go to the left."

"Depart! Unclean!" they cried of themselves "Depart, depart, do not touch!" So they fled and wandered; Men among the nations said, "They shall not continue to dwell with us."

And there occurred such a sharp disagreement that they separated from one another, and Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed away to Cyprus.

...

Just a thought ...

He who separates himself seeks his own desire, He quarrels against all sound wisdom.

You didn't put any bible references, but the first one looks like what Abram said to Lot before they separated. But, that was not because of conflict, but because the land couldn't contain them both because of all their possessions.

Yes, no bible references.

It was when Abraham and Lot parted ways.

The treasury of demons is accusation...
Followed by self-affirmation...

Is that found in one of your apocryphal books?
The Pharisees said Jesus had a demon... (see how that game is played, Arsenios)

 

[Arsenios]

The Pharisees said Jesus had a demon...

Yes - The demonized Pharisees accused Jesus of having a demon...

Perhaps the most exemplary instance of the treasury of demonic accusation...

So I agree with you...

Accusation is the "Treasury of Demons"...

As you so elegantly attest with Scripture...

So...when you, a Judaiser who teaches salvation by works, insinuate that I am speaking by demon influence, I can therefore consider you a Pharisee.

I am not responaible for your considerations...

Are you now accusing me of being a judaizer who teaches Salvation by works?

The treasury of demons is accusation...

Think "Passive Aggressive"...

I mean, do YOU feel accused when I say that the treasury of demons is accusation?

It is kinda seeming to maybe be so, but I ain't a-gonna believe it yit...

I have always pointed out your message of salvation attained by works, which is the same message Paul called anathema. I'm in good company.

Was Paul exercising the "treasury of demons" when he said the message of the Judaisers was anathema? Was Jesus exercising the "treasury of demons" when he called the Pharisees "white washed walls?"
Arsenios, you are trying to hide your false doctrine of works behind a false premise.

You didn't answer my question regarding Jesus and Paul. Your avoidance is noticeable.

Thank-you...

No - Those accusations were no treasury...
They we given in the despair of loss...
The Jews as a people did not come around...

The treasury of demons is to look for every perceived fault as an opportunity to accuse a person of a presumed evil in his or her soul when he does not have insight into that soul... ANTIFA does it all the time... Christ was teaching, with white washed walls as His image, that they might see... So was Paul...

But the treasury of demons is accusation...

Repeated accusation after accusation after accusation...

The very repetition is the treasury...

Christ and Paul used accusation to instruct, then moved on...

No treasury in accusation for them...

Huge difference, yes?

Your theology is anathema. That's not a perceived thought. That's you writing definitive words that teach salvation attained by works. Paul condemned your works based teaching. I agree with Paul's condemnation of your theology.

Improvement is always to be encouraged...

Thank-you...

A step forward indeed...
