The question was, "How do you know the Lord's leading?" My answer is, first you have to see the Lord. He's right there, in black and white, in print, waiting for the Spirit's breath. John 14:26; 16:13; 1 Cor 2:10. What happens when the Bible expositor says no, it's merely the word of fallen human beings, mere "natural concepts" and "mixed sentiments"? My reply is, the fallen human concepts are rather those of the expositor.
"I (Christ) come to do God's will". It doesn't get much simpler than that. But first you have to see it.

Yes indeed. Much peril there. And anyone who slices and dices God breathed scripture into 'yes, divinely inspired' and 'not so much divine as fallen' has already gone so far from the true faith in God and His word as to be on the wrong path.....not to be trusted for sound christian advice any further!
