Dear Bob,
The Bible tells us many things, Christ's central message is one of
love for each other. In love we do not see the iniquities of others.
The Bible also tells us about God's spiritual gifts and their great
diversity.
"Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there
are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are
diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in
all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to
profit withal. For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom;
to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; To another faith
by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same
Spirit; to another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to
another discerning of spirits; to another [divers] kinds of tongues;
to another the interpretation of tongues: But all these worketh that
one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he
will. For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the
members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also [is]
Christ." 1 Corinthians 12:4-12
This isn't about Andrew winning anything, but about you winning
'everything' in Christ and finding His salvation.
Why do you call for proof again and again and again? If you look at
the world around you do you resist evil in the same persistent manner?
Do I see such resistance to all that is evil as Christ can empower us
with in you? Would you not take such resistance to evil as a great
gift for this world if it was offered to you?
In Christ's love
Carol T
