Get back to the Word, people, not opinions. > In His service and love, > Gene Blough > Excuse me, Gene? Spiritual life is fiction? And if you had difficulty discerning spirits everybody has difficulty discerning spirits? Is it not possible that other people do *NOT* have that difficulty? And for you, the Word is your best source of information and comfort, whereas another person may be more tuned into the spiritual side of things? And yes, that's my orientation. I say that being at risk of being bashed. I am much more comfortable with the spirit world, which does not scare me at all because I can tell the difference rather easily? But the Word at times confuses me, and I must go to my spiritual life to straighten it out? My faith would be quite empty if it just consisted of input from the Bible and noplace else. So, refrain from the generalizations, please, and recognize that you are simply more comfortable with the Bible and I am more comfortable with my spiritual life. We get the same place, you know!
