I usually have several books open at once, but at the moment only two. Abide in Christ by Andrew Murray and The Gospel Mystery of Sanctification by Walter Marshall. Sometime very soon I will be revisiting Biblical Theology by John Owen. Not the whole thing, just Book 6. Which in my humble...

11Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing. 12For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong...

If someone professes to have a prayer language, and they use that language to pray in the Spirit for the good of those around them, then why would anyone take it upon themselves to belittle them or discourage them for such a practice? 1Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but...

I've had days in my life where I could say with Paul, "that I am conscious of nothing against myself" they've been few and far between, but I don't discount that at least as far as I could tell, it was an accurate statement. But then again, I would never be so foolish to believe that the God...

Psalms and Proverbs daily. But I will never get enough of the Gospels. God manifested Himself to us in human form, we would be fools not to hang upon His every word.

Heavenly Father, I thank you for this food. I ask that you would bless it as nourishment to my body, bless the hands that prepared it, go with me, guide me and direct me, in Jesus name, and for His sake. This was my grandfather's blessing. He never failed to ask, and neither have I over these...

I was just lurking about, considering whether I should join the forum when I saw your thread. Some of the responses were very revealing. Since no one knows me here, and most likely I will never meet any one here personally, I thought, why not answer as truthfully and transparently as possible...
