"People do not drift toward holiness. Apart from grace-driven effort, people do not gravitate toward godliness, prayer, obedience to Scripture, faith, and delight in the Lord. We drift toward compromise and call it tolerance; We drift toward disobedience and call it freedom; We drift toward superstition and call it faith. We cherish the indiscipline of lost self-control and call it relaxation; we slouch toward prayerlessness and delude ourselves into thinking we have escaped legalism; we slide toward godlessness and convince ourselves we have been liberated?" - D A Carson
...and you shall live...
Hesitations 4:34-5 KJV: Whenever thou tangoest, thou shalt tango with two and two persons only. Thou shalt not tango with groups of more than two persons, nor shalt thou tango by thyself.Originally Posted by Esperanza32
1Jn 4:1 NKJV Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
1Th 5:21-22 NKJV Test all things; hold fast what is good. (22) Abstain from every form of evil.

I think "tango" is a pretty loose translation of the Hebrew in that passage, don't you? Even though it's KJV...you really should go to the original Hebrew to get the full meaning of the word. Look it up and you'll see what I mean.

Consult the Book of Armaments!
...Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou shalt proceed to three. Five is right out....
It is only the cynic who claims “to speak the truth” at all times and in all places to all men in the same way, but who, in fact, displays nothing but a lifeless image of the truth… He dons the halo of the fanatical devotee of truth who can make no allowance for human weaknesses; but, in fact, he is destroying the living truth between men. He wounds shame, desecrates mystery, breaks confidence, betrays the community in which he lives, and laughs arrogantly at the devastation he has wrought and at the human weakness which “cannot bear the truth”. Dietrich Bonhoeffer, in Ethics.

I think we should talk about my dog now...he is much more interesting then the current discussion.

What do you get when you cross an agnostic, a dyslexic and an insomniac?
Someone who stays up all night wondering if there really is a dog.
