I think I am beginning to recover from a phase where I have been obsessed with a need to spread what I believe in respect of man's corruptive intervention in Christianity at all stages of history, 1st century onwards. Realisation that our Sovereign God works out his purpose by allowing such...

Why don't we all just face up to facts. We all know perfectly well (from the vast number of 'thus says the Word of God' denominations) that the 'Bible' says different things to different people. On my forum a member has just said (with reference to Christian Universal Reconciliation) that she...

Thanks David....BTW did you ever get my PM?

Be my first thought every morning And my last thought every day And in between this vessel fill To think and act ‘Thy Way’ Then when to sleep my soul returns May the dreams upon my bed Reflect the wakened moments till My circle of life is led At every point Christ’s love to show. In all I say...

The Epistle to the Hebrews is a great summary of the change over from God’s Old Covenant to the New. In it we read that “there remaineth therefore a Rest unto the people of God” When Christ outlined the difference between the Old Covenant and the New in his Sermon on the Mount he took six...

OK, I'm back with a resolve to contribute without being shaken off couse by what others say that might not be in the spirit of love and tolerance. Mike.

You have a real job on your hands Mr Hammerstone. I only looked in again in response to your 'round robin' Email to members who have stopped posting. Your problem is that the majority of well adjusted and rounded Christians wouldn't give a second thought to contributing to a forum. It is the...

Somewhat trite and dismissive IMO.

No man, (neither you nor jiggfly) can do more than sow what he believes to be good seed, and then rely on God's Holy Spirit to cause such as really is 'good seed' to grow and to flourish. When two or three engage the ones who close their minds to any possibility that they might be the ones who...

1 Corinthians 9:17 (Young's Literal Translation) 17for if willing I do this, I have a reward; and if unwillingly -- with a stewardship I have been entrusted! Is there a conclusion here somewhere? Mike

Actually, because I'm already 'too big for my boots' there isn't much room left in them for Bullingerism.

It begins to look like God brought me to this site in order to fill my boots re Bullingerism. When the boots have been filled will it have been his purpose that I should become a Bullingerite or move on having become a more rounded Christian?

Many thanks.....I've book marked it for its apparent value. I'm beginning to see why you folk are such 'Bullies' (is that a wink emoticon?).....I'm trying to be complimentary in a light hearted way. We have now come to the end of our survey of number as used by God in His works and in His...

Lovely post JohnDB.....May God Bless you. Just concentrate on visting the widows and the fatherless and loving God, the brethren, your neighbours, and your enemies, and you'll be doing as we're told. Mike.

Many thanks for the thread....it sure make you think of God's wonder. Have you read Panin on Bible numerics http://www.biblebelievers.org.au/panin2.htm That presents similar thought provoking stuff, although how it can all equate with each of a variety of manuscripts I've never got round to...

The selected quotes in blue were ones that I picked out for their relevance to the change over from Old Covenant to New Covenant for the New Israel, When I switched to 'black' it was because I was beginning commentary rather than simply giving quotes, so the first sentance of 'black' wasn't...

But that isn't related to your post#4 and my reply#5 surely? Is it then a new unrelated line of thought or am I just thick? Mike

To me it is speaking of Christ himself (the logos) and I piece it together throughout that first chapter, plus Hebrews 1, in the way that I did in my OP “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we...

PS...Let's be perfectly clear about this. I am not denying the scriptures per se. I read and quote them constantly.....you must surely have noticed. My burden is that they must be subordinate to the communicative work of the Holy Spirit and not vice versa. The Holy Spirit is a vital person of...

I keep trying to add a poll asking "should wayofthespirit shut up and withdraw" but I don't seem to be able to do so. I'll have one more try.
