Of course I quoted him because I tend to agree with him.<br /><br />I'm afraid I don't see the relevance of your other remarks. My post is about how true Christians can't pray with heretics and cultists. <br /><br />And dear Suzie, your claim to have been born again at three and taken to heaven makes you very suspect yourself. You should read my entries on other stories of young children being taken to heaven. I suspect if you described your experience in some detail it would become obvious that it was not heaven you visited, and not Jesus you met.<br /><br />Your claim of being born again at three is highly questionable. A three-year old can't comprehend sin and the need for salvation from it for starters -- the new birth is God's work but it is marked by a conscious faith in the believer. You couldn't have had that at three. I don't doubt that you had some kind of supernatural experience at that age, however, just as I don't doubt the other stories of similar experiences, I doubt their source and your interpretation of what happened to you. I believe you need to take a long hard honest look again at that experience as you are most certainly being deceived. <br /><br />And since you showed that you reject the apostolic authority of Paul by what you wrote on my <i>Hidden Glory</i> blog (and at <a href="http://birthingofanation.blogspot.com/2011/07/paul-makes-mistake-and-surrenders.html" rel="nofollow">your own blog</a> as well I see) I'm afraid I have to class you with the heretics a Christian can't pray with as well. <br /><br />Again, sincerely I suggest that you reexamine that experience you had at three, in the hope that you might escape what is certainly a terrible deception.Faith https://www.blogger.com/profile/00064746447414555577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8290715222068932619.post-69755487771771706322011-07-26T07:29:08.809-07:002011-07-26T07:29:08.809-07:00I should say this.

Also, the great error is in leaving the sound doctrine of Reformation and attempting to attain Christian maturity through human will and intellect with man in "control" of God and sanctification. For example, I do believe that God wills us as the Word states to attain Christian maturity and to be endued with power. Yet, in a man-centered paradigm (which arminiasm produces) -- this becomes distorted, impure, and sadly becomes polluted and corrupted. However, from a Reformed theological foundation, the fruit arises in Jesus giving all glory to God - and God really WILL bring the Kingdom as we are submitted to His Sovereignty, giving Him all the glory, and arising in our spiritual union in Christ. In other words, one cannot "take a false path" to Christian maturity on the basis of "free will" with man in control of God rather than submitted to God in His Sovereignty in His Kingdom and produce true holiness, sanctification, and power in the Kingdom which truly brings the Kingdom by the Spirit of God in Christ. (Hope that makes sense. I am saying that I absolutely believe that God will bring healing to a nation, will bring Christian authority by anointing, will heal the sick, will do all things that are the bringing of the Kingdom - however, this will be by worship of God as Sovereign in submission to Him and God doing the work in and through us by grace in Jesus Christ alone as GOD brings the Kingdom rather than men striving in self and self-effort to do the work of the Spirit in their own flesh and by their own flesh... big difference.)
