Debating over verses--who's right?

Many times, I hear Christians debating over the meaning of this verse and that.It could be the same verse, but one states it means one thing, another argues back,No, it means {fill in}.Some say the verse is given as an example,not a literal meaning, another says, no, the Bible means everything literally.I hear of different subjects in the Bible that pastors see differently.Sooo….how do we tell who's "right" or "wrong" if 2 men of God disagree?OR,is it possible to know everything, because,"Now we see through a glass darkly,but then we shall see clearly."{"Then we shall see Him as He is, for we shall be like Him"}For now.....

God is the One who is always right buddy. There are verses that teach let all be liers and let God be true. We shall know God/Jesus as well as He knows us when we meet Him in the air. Until then we abide faithful to what we know of Him. No one that we know is perfect except for God/Jesus :)

Some of us may know God/Jesus better than others but we won't know who they are for sure until we meet Him in the air :)
 
I would ask Jesus for wisdom from heaven to understand the deepest secret of Gods word. If something comes up in Gods word like Jesus wept.... He cried out to His Father... I will come back again... How could an eternal God who created all things around us weeps along with those who were sorrowful? How could a mighty God could cry out to His Father to do His will and not His own? Jesus said He will come back but when and what hour so we can wait for Him? Ask with a humble heart wisdom and understanding, just as Salomon asked. Give me not wealth or riches of this earth but give me wisdom to lead this nation in the fear of God. Jesus will hear your prayer and will give you wisdom to understand His word.

The Bible does talk about God having One eye constantly weeping for us. I believe Jesus wept for their unbelief :)

Have you noticed the sign that is in the moon that cometh not with observation which I believe means it was always there? The moon reflects the Sun (search Sun of Righteousness) and every full or partially full moon if you look into it there is always a face with 2 eyes, 1 always looks like it's weeping, a nose and an open mouth which looks like smoke is coming out of it. I believe God's face is the Son. The more times we read the Bible, the more we learn how our maker is above all and through all. The very beginning of the Bible we learn the Earth already was and the water already was before God created or formed everything. You are right, asking God to bless you to know Him and understand Him with His knowledge and His wisdom is the best thing we can ask for :)

Well here again, how the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are 3 can be in different places, yet are all one,is another of those Devine mysteries, and again, which is the actual circumstance, you believe the moon , thus and so,but another would say the verses mean something else, bears out my point about , which is correct when 2 have a different understanding?2}When you say Jesus wept for us, that's actually in the Bible.{"And when He came to Jerusalem, He wept for them for their unbelief"}{"God is not willing that any should perish but that all should attain to repentance."}

I don't know how to explain my knowledge of the scripture other than it is wisdom from God/Jesus. I understand how God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit are One as well as the same. I understand what Moses meant when he told God that He was our dwelling place in all generations. Doesn't the entire universe fit together as if it is One being? I had to read some books and chapters well over 100 times before I saw their true meaning which only happened through Jesus. Almost everything if not everything I state on this website is knowledge from the Bible. I have had the entire Bible flash before my eyes only to re read the Bible yet more so just to describe what I saw to others as we are not to add to or take away from scripture.

God is not willing that any should perish but that all should attain to repentance. There is really only one meaning to that statement when comparing everything else stated by God/Jesus in scripture especially when Christ said all that the Father giveth me will come to me and I will not lose a one keeping in mind God is in control of everything, all of His elect, all of His choice will not perish, they will all hear His voice, they will repent and they will attain salvation. I know it seems to you I argue with you yet not so with me as I am only answering your questions yet if you ask God, He will freely give you answers that you look for which is more beneficial than asking us.

I don't really like to brag but some people said that they wouldn't listen to me unless I went to Bible college so I did but everything I know, factually know was and is a gift from God/Jesus which was something I asked for at a time that it bothered me about different teachings, basically things that you have stated on here yet I asked for God's wisdom and I got it, Thank You, Praise You Lord Jesus! Since I see Him as One I call Him mostly Jesus:)
 
Wellyeah, sometimes "all" doesn't mean every person in the world, and I've heard that, that He meant those predestined to be saved.The number of the saved to be saved.I can buy that, but I wouldn't be dogmatic about it.{Remember, it's also in the Bible that "now we see through a glass darkly", meaning not everything is revealed to us yet.But about the point of many Christians with many beliefs, I've heard all this--pre-tribulation Rapture, mid- Trib, post Trib, no Rapture at all.They can't all be right.God is not the author of confusion.
 
Part of the problem is the original translators, and the times they did it. For Exousia means liberty not power as what most have said is Govt. mans Govt. But they could of been beheaded and or put in the Dungeon if they said in the day of King James do not obey the king. The other reason is most read without the spirit and as long as the Spirit isn't the one leading them in truth and righteousness then they will get it wrong.
But this may be the best way to look at it. As what Romans 14 I think says:
14I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
This says to me that if a man says something is sin then for him it is if one says it's not then for him it's not.

Jesus weeps for us still as He wants all to be saved till everything is made new and under His feet.

We should not debate on God's word which guides our steps. We share views and experiences based on the word and standing on our faith. The Holy spirit directs us. We don't know everything about God. This is my view.
