    Remembering CoreIssue in prayer

    I noticed that he was not posting regularly a couple of days ago, but I have discovered just today that he has removed himself from this forum. I came against him on more than one occasion as did others here, but now let us ask God to help him in his walk and let it always be a walk in pursuit...

    Prayer please for me

    I have just come from trying to read and respond to a couple of alerts on the forum with minimal success, but something is wrong with me. My mind is in a swirl and I cannot focus with great difficulty on the issues addressed. I ask only that people will remember me when you talk to God and ask...

    The Elect?

    In response to the suggestion by my dear old friend @"ByGrace" I have started this thread based on these questions: Yes, and then comes the question again of just who exactly are the elect... and how are they selected? Were they really preselected as some apparently believe? I am purposely...

    Where is up and why should we look that way?

    "And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought. And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking. After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he...

    His Name

    Easy my friend. God is the fairest being you will ever encounter. The ones to be spit out are those who work hard to walk in the middle of the road, neither for the ways of men alone nor for the Way of God alone. This is the lukewarm, fence walking bunch: Rev 3:15 I know thy works, that thou...

    Prayer for my wife

    This past Tuesday I went with my wife for her regular check up with the pulmonologist. He took an X-ray which showed some kind of a spot inside one lung, which he says could be one several different of things. He sent her for a Cat scan to more clearly identify any problem. Today we are supposed...

    God is still working today

    This is not my personal testimony but it directly involved someone my wife and I know very well. It involves the role of the medical community today in healing people: A dear sister in the Lord met my wife shortly after my job had brought us to Oklahoma in 1987. It was through that meeting...

    satan a creature or man without God

    @bbyrd009 @pia The two above posts on another thread brought this thing of satan to my mind. While I have seen and heard many arguments in favor of the existence of the external entity called by that name, I have long discounted his existence as a separate being. Perhaps someone could give...

    On Dying

    The flesh is dying for all of us... even the young. Young people may not realize that that they are dying too, because early on the renewal processes in our carnal bodies stays ahead of the dying process. Somewhere at some optimum point for each of us we start losing the contest between life and...

    Why did Jesus come and what was his work?

    Why did Jesus come? "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." John 10:10 How did he provide us with Life? "Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat...

    If all of the Church is the Bride of Christ who are the guests?

    "Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests." Matt 22:9-10

    Do Man's Programs too often displace God and His plan?

    ↑ Programs in church services often quench the Spirit of God people who are wishing to follow His lead. The pastor or preacher may not want it, but what if God does? Would you or anyone else want to stand in God's way because He is not on the program? Where I attend much of the leadership...

    Caring

    Does ANYBODY care?" Usually we write things on forums like this hoping that someone will notice and "care" or "complain" or "praise" or somehow simply "take notice" that WE, the writers, exist. Man is born a very selfish creature. At birth the selfishness is there as a survival mechanism but...

    Much Is Given... Much Required

    "But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required : and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more." Luke 12:48 Those who live in the United States are blessed...

    The End of Faith

    “Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Heb 12:2 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection...

    How many sins are we allowed to commit and repent of before God willno longer forgive us?I won't say how many because if I am correct the answer would beGod's not mine.It was not until after the natural children of Israel had rebelled10 times that God forbade the promised land to them.In the...
