    Yes - years back I had a 'God dream' of a great throng believers walking in the same direction and I was walking with them. Overhead was the singing of angels - indescribable amazing music. Then I noticed on each side of the moving throng were Christian leaders, standing, encouraging and...

I was one of about 100 professionals recognised by the Home Power Mag in the US. Ive been all over the globe but never to the...

    Smoke weed

    My experience was devastating - Lack of self identity made me prone to peer pressure, lost in life, smoking every day, never being sure what we were consuming. This combined with friends heavily into occult, some died, and I a believer was a spiritual target without the knowledge or experience...

    Appreciate your caution, but note that Paul was quite forth coming about the impact of his ministry when asked. At the same time I am aware of matters best left unknown in this regard unless the Spirit specifically give leave to share same. However I am also aware that folks assume the role of...

    Yes - I keep thinking that when Paul went to Jerusalem, they didn't test his theology, in fact Peter didn't seem to understand it, they heard the testimony of His fruitful ministry. On forums I have asked 'teachers of the word' to talk about the fruits of their belief - silence. It seems folks...
