Grammatical correctness: I Cor 1:25 + - For the foolishness of God is wiser than men . . . But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise . . . THAT NO FLESH SHOULD GLORY IN HIS PRESENCE.
(I love that last part, because it says that there is nothing man can do to save himself. It is ALL to the glory of GOD and NO ONE else.)
Person: He is the exact representation (express image, KJV) of His person Heb 1:3).
I am just quoting out of the Word of God. Here's a verse that made me sit up and listen and made me pray to Holy God - Was I, had I been wrong my whole life because I just refused to read the scripture and pray to him for understanding? That I scoffed at this doctrine without investigation of the Word of God?
The natural man cannot comprehend scripture I Cor 2:14
The Holy Spirit leads His elect into all truth John 16:13
So, why use scripture if the natural man cannot comprehend it?
Because the Lord knows who are His elect (II Tim 2:19) and you never know at what point the Holy Spirit will decide to change a person's heart. Could be, He will do it right when a person asks to know the truth; for he knows what a person needs before he even asks (Matt 6:8) . . . But one does have to ask - He must come to Christ (Jn 14:6) and the only way to get to Christ is if the Father draws him (Jn 6:44).
I am a daugher of Abraham Through the blood of the perfect Lamb
Jesus is God,
Jessi

The thing is our salvation is not about a "group" it is about our individual relationship with Jesus.
Sadly the F&W and some other churches seem to have some serious self-esteem/identity problems and they seek to overcome these problems through exalting themselves as the "only" ones
