Full Version: God's Word, Is It Ever Void?
Who here believes God's Word ever comes back void???
Depends:
1) A verse taken out of context will return void: for example:Mar 7:13 making void the word of God by your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things ye do.
2) The Word, when it is WHOLE and in context, will not return void.
Which one are you asking about?

What do you mean by God's Word? Are you referring to the bible only?

I will explain it this way.
If I stood before Jesus and he told me to do something, is that the Lord's word? Or God's word? (just to be consistent...)

Who are we to not do what anyone of them say?

Seems like you are introducing another issue alltogether... seems like your real question is whether the Lord Jesus is God?
Do I think you can blurt out verses from the bible and have something spiritual happen? IMO, NO... especially like what you read here on this site.

Dear Caneman, I am trying to ask a simple question, but it's beyond me why some here cannot answer it plainly.
There was only one person here who answered it well, and that was by Werenotalone (in another thread).
Maybe it will help if I answered my own question. I believe God's word never comes back void, even if Christ stood before me and asked me to do something. Whether God's word is written in the Bible or if spoken in person by Christ in front of me I believe his word shall always be fulfilled.
Now who agrees or disagrees with this?

Yes - I agree, you spoke the truth, as I said - would it matter?
and by that meaning - The word Jesus spoke was the Word of God - and knowing he is what he is, it would not matter if you heard it from the mouth of Jesus or from God in the sky - you are to obey the word of God.

Thank you, togarma.
Then, if Christ told me to do something and if I did not do it the Lord's word is still valid and it will be done. So, it does not matter what I will to do, for or against God's word, because God's word never comes back void, either by what is written in the Bible, or what is spoken in a thunderclap in the heavens, or what is whispered to the heart by a dove's wing. God's word shall always come true.
Now, what do you say of the rich man that Christ had told to sell all his things and follow him?
Remember, if you believe God's word never is void then the answer should be apparant.
