Thank you an Many Blessings!
Of course, you won't read this as you're "finished with this website". But thought to add this in case others reading this thread might also be seeking answers. If something is a 'misquote' means it has been written incorrectly or has been placed there incorrectly & to this you have admitted. Since you don't give further details as to where your error was, rather simply to prod me to show me 'my error', we are all left in the dark & wondering what message you are actually trying to convey. I hope others can work it out. Thank you again.
Blessings,

Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God ( 2 Corinthians 5:20). you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth ( Acts 1:8). Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit ( Matthew 28:19).
And he said to them, Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned ( Mark 16:15-16).
But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us ( Romans 5:8). And we likewise are to share God's love with others.
Hopefully the unsaved will
Repent you therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ( Acts 3:19).
We are called upon by God to be His representatives to the world, spreading His gospel, that we may demonstrate His love to the lost that they to may be saved.
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these ( Mark 12:30-31). The greatest way we can show God's love to others is to spread God's saving gospel - by evangelizing.
Without evangelism - spreading the Word of God, billions of souls would have never known the sweat salvation of God. God uses us, if we obey, to bring Him lost souls.
If the lost condition of this world is on your heart, log in some prayer time with the Holy Spirit.
Jesus sent the disciples out by 2's. Study how Jesus ministered to the lost.

Paul's simple word was clear, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house." Acts 16:30-34.
So we see that salvation can only come by hearing the Gospel & for each person to respond to it personally. This verse does not suggest 'household salvation/baptism', where if one person is saved then the others in the house are too. No, each one is responsible to believe & respond. And for young ones who may not be able to, then it's the parent's responsibility to teach them.
And the amazing thing we learn, Paul & Silas did all this (sharing the Gospel to the guard's family at night & baptizing them straightaway) & then returning back to be put behind bars, to be released the following day.
If you are a daughter, then you are a handmaiden.
Prophesy MEANS speak forth the Word of God. Preach and Teach the Bible.
Don't let people despise your humble beginnings. God picks those that will go ye.
You must be born again.
You must be Holy Spirit Baptized.
You need a working knowledge of the Bible.
Your armor and weapons are spiritual, invisible, but if God calls you, He will equip you.
Jesus is your Example: do it like he did in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
Memorize everything on the LINK in the red area of this website, BECOME A BELIEVER.
There are many websites that teach practical information on how to begin a street ministry. You gotta learn to Pray. Go into the Prayer Request Room and help one person. :). Then another. Be Jesus with skin, in HIS harvest field. Disciples use a buddy system too.

There were those in the Church that wanted to pervert the doctrines & teachings given by the apostles to the Church. They did so by using special enticing words & dynamic preaching which no doubt appealed to the hearers & sounded convincing. Many within the Church may have been swayed by their 'performance' looking at the preacher rather that what is preached.
It even happens today as many are so gripped by some speakers, the speakers can say just about anything & the Christian will accept it as Truth. Paul was warning the Church in Rome to take particular care & give proper attention to God's Word.
For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.
Matthew 12:32
And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the WORLD TO COME.
Matthew 16:13
When Jesus came...and asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
Matthew 16:27
For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works (saved/unsaved)
Matthew 16:28
Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
Revelation 1:13
And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
Revelation 14:14
And I looked, and behold a white CLOUD, and upon the CLOUD one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
Comment: Jesus is the Son of God. After he was born to Mary and Joseph, by the Power of the Holy Spirit; Jesus was then known as the Son of Man (as in Mankind).
He said it himself.
He is ALL son of God, and ALL son of man (human)
If you skip down to the last 2 verses, Jesus was seen by the Apostle John in a vision: as the Victorious Son of man about to put in His sickle and Reap the Harvest of souls.
One of his Names is Lord of the Harvest.
He's coming soon too. I mean no offense, but now is not a time to procrastinate and split scripture hairs over theologies of man, different Bibles, ancient UN-CANONIZED scripture.
Human history is about to wrap up. Write this book of scripture inside your Bible cover: 2 Peter Chapter 3. Have it handy.
The earth is already beginning to burn. It's not Global Warming; it's Almighty God!! He will PERFORM his Word.

And just to clarify from my end: what I wrote, which you said was a misquote by me, was actually not intended to be your words verbatim. I specifically applied my own understanding to what you had written, so that you could correct my interpretation, since I was conflicted about Eccl 12:7 & your last paragraph. Anyway, matter closed: we're both in agreement now. Thanks for your time & the Lord bless you too.
Now to your last post; I hadn't noticed until today that there was a misquote. The one line "This does not mean that the life-force actually travels to heaven." is a misquote and should not have been inserted into this post. I am sorry for any confusion this may have caused.
We are all human and as such some of us do make mistakes, the fewer the better. I hope this post helps, if not don't call me, I will be unavailable. I do, however, forgive you for your baseless charge in your first response to me.
We all should learn a valuable lessen from this experience It is what I continuously say "Put your faith in God's Word, not in man."
God Bless and have a good day.
Proverbs 16:18 - Pride goeth before destruction......... Praise God. Thank You Jesus.
So in context of the verse, these others (gentiles) that come to Israel will come in brokenness & humility, and acknowledging that "God (El) is the God with Israel, & there is no god (Elohim), there is none else". So it is the cry of the gentiles, though not coming to faith in the true God of Israel, did however acknowledge that there is none beside Him. Since they didn't know the true God as Israel knew God, the word 'El, Elohim' is being used to signify this.
