And, out of context. The Pharisees were demanding from Jesus the of the coming of the kingdom of God:
Yes and the same do today looking for a man to come as a god instead of looking for the One who is at your door this day knocking and will come to you and sup with you and be in you. SO yes he is talking to you.
And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. (Luke 17:20-21)
That is what I just said. You should listen to Jesus.
A rather common request because everyone wants to know "when" so they know when to "act right". They were also asking about the temporal kingdom, which was not the focus of Jesus' teaching then or now. That is for the future and there are a number of Bible citations that can be made for the need to be ready at all times for the coming of His kingdom.
It is not some kind of "we don't need the Bible, because some "spirit" will teach us the "right way" to find God", that is a definite out of context (mis)interpretation of what the Bible teaches.
In that day ye shall ask me noting but go to the Father for yourself and He will give it you. You should consider how He communicates with man. He does not communicate with man through books man publishes and edited over and over, He come directly to all who will receive Him. Even Jesus had to go through this process to know God and His heaven in Matt 3:16. We are not exempt,pt from the same as you seem to think we are.
How can you say you are of Christ, anointed of God, if you are not like Him?
And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. (John 14:13-14)
Exactly and I am His son, you are supposed to be as well.
You dont even apply the Bible you say that you follow.
The opinions of men can be compared to the teachings of Scripture whereby the truth of their teachings can be found to be true or false.
Yes like Jim Jones and David Koresh used the Bible to quote about their gods didn't they? And to them just as with you they had the truth right?
There is no "special knowledge" from some "spirit" that needs to be found.
Thats is right it is a gift from God to have His same mind and that comes only by His Spirit and no other way.
God is not the author of confusion and claiming to have special knowledge or that God's will is written on the hearts of people with special spirit connections invariably causes confusion, because you guys reject the Bible (rejecting it in part ends up rejecting in total as shown above) and then teach different things, so which one is teaching the truth?
That is right He is not the author of confusion He is the author of straightening out man confusions by His Spirit be in that man who. will receive Him. Something that you should consider of Him that you have His same mind, or Spirit it is called.
But because you reject the Bible and do not recieve from God you have formed your own religious god that he may obey you instead of you obeying the one of the Bible that Jesus leads us to.
When you see Him as He is ye shall be like Him, 1 John 3, but in your current state of religion and deny the Bible for what it says, there is no way you can know what it is to be of God at all and like Him.
Oh, let's check the Bible... but they all reject the Bible over their "spirit-led" teachings, so there is no standard except their person authori-tie.
They as in YOU who has edited it and rewritten into it to suit your own understanding totally void in the ways of God to be perfect as He is , righteous, holy, pure, and without sin, cannot sin because I am born of God. 1 John 3:9. You dont have a clue what you are talking about spiritually from God Himself come to you. Jesus was clear in John 17 that you be as He is as he was like Him which obviously is blaspheme for you. .
