Luke 9:23 "And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me."

Can we apply that to ourselves, who follow Christ?

John 3:30 "He must increase, but I must decrease."

Great video Epi. I need to watch it again, as there were a few points you made that are worth discussing. You've pointed out many times about the price one needs to pay, in this video and various threads. Like buying the field with the treasure. "Stripped of self". It seems people fall flat...

On the topic of the higher walk, a thought came back to me from before. What is the natural realm of the flesh? This world, right? For a Born Again Believer, they have been given a spirit from above, the heavenly realm. So if we walk in our flesh, we are obviously walking in this world, and of...

The question was in regards to those who come into Epi's threads, and try to persuade others, that Epi's teachings are wrong. Especially when seeing people who "follow" Epi, get called out, for simply reacting to his posts. The reason I asked about how many witnesses it should take, to persuade...

If Epi is wrong, should we listen to two witnesses, or one?

Luke 18:27 "And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God." Do you find the carnal gospel makes people only see things are "impossible with men", and become blind to the truth, that all things are"possible with God" in faith? So they have a hard time either going...

I like your explanation of using a magnet. I was thinking of my experience before, and likened it to grasping onto God's leg tightly, like a little child. But to let go is a full conscious decision or reasoning on our part. You can not easily enter out of it on a whim. I think it makes the...

From my understanding, having asked Epi this before, he does use the term "higher walk" in reference to walking in the Spirit.

Thank you for the video Episkopos. There was a lot to unpack, but very informative. Also, thanks for pointing out it takes a conscious decision on our part to enter out of the higher walk.

@Episkopos , do you believe God intended this reality to always be a simulation/training ground? Or did that come to be, after the fall in the garden? On another thought, those who don't believe in God, or have yet to be born again, continue to live this life according to the illusion the world...

I've had a few dreams and a vision over the past few months. Here is one I wanted to share, because one part of it came true within the week. First for context, this dream happened the week after Remembrance Day, November 11th. The church choir sang that Sunday morning. During the practice...

Thank you for the reply! :)

Thanks for the reply back. :) Does one's Born Again experience usually reside with the Baptism of the Holy Spirit? Going back to one of your previous posts (I think it was), you asked about what happened when Jesus breathed onto the apostles and said receive the Holy Spirit, compared to what...

Hope you don't mind if I ask some questions based on your post above. Typically, from testimonies of others, when they claim they received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, it was due to others laying hands on them. Can someone be alone, and receive the Baptism from God directly?

I've been wondering lately about when one has their born again experience, is it accompanied by the Baptism of the Holy Spirit? Or is the Baptism a later event? I recently seen mentioned a "second blessing" experience on this forum, and it has opened up questions. Thoughts? Especially based on...

If I liked it, then I did read it, and either agreed to what they said, or God spoke to me through it. However, as I read a lot of posts on here daily, I can't recall what they wrote. :(

Day is going well. I've had some joy from the Lord in my heart to keep me motivated with my tasks. Had two Jehovah's Witnesses knock on the door. Was expecting to have a good conversation with them. When they asked if I knew anything about JWs, I mentioned a family friend we have taught me their...

I guess I did not see their posts on it. Would have to read them, to try and understand their viewpoint.
