    God wants to save Christians too. --- Say what?

    I think it was because of me, as I was looking through this thread earlier, lol. To your question, can someone who believes in a "prosperity Jesus" be a true believer? Is that what you are getting at?

    Perfection

    Would you be willing to share some answered prayers, and especially miracles you have seen? I have been amazed at God's hand in my life, but rarely get to hear about it from others experience.

    Perfection

    Would praying for that person be a form to show love for them?

    Perfection

    Out of curiosity, if you stayed in the Spirit, what do you think the Spirit would lead you to do, compared to what the flesh did, in this scenario?

    Forgiveness vs Atonement

    My personal belief, to understanding works for one who has faith, is that the "works" are a manifestation of our love for God. For He loved us first, so can we not return that love back, which He generously gave us in the first place? One can find doing "works" as a labour or burden. However...

    Forgiveness vs Atonement

    That is interesting to read. I never gave thought to Jesus going through "egypt", a "wilderness", and then into the promise land. Thank you for sharing sister.

    Forgiveness vs Atonement

    In general, I was thinking about a those who have shared Episkopos is incorrect about his teaching of the "initial grace" which we need to take back to God, to get the "full measure". I was also thinking if his statement is true, is it shown in the life of a believer in Christ? So here was a...

    Bones

    I never noticed the connection with not breaking the bones of the lamb, for passover, and how not one bone of Christ was broken. Does this fit with what your trying to show us, @amadeus ? Ezekiel 37 The hand of the Lord was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the Lord, and set me down...

    Forgiveness vs Atonement

    I find it interesting many here feel one should not be doing any work, if they are truly "born again". Or at least to stay in a certain state. Work verb: be engaged in physical or mental activity in order to achieve a result; do work. If one is "born again", does it mean God has downloaded the...

    Quick-Vid of Forgiveness vs Atonement

    I've been thinking a lot about the difference in one who is justified only, and one who is in the state of being "holy". As you said, "to walk as Jesus walked", is that the state one is in if they are "holy"? If one is truly in the state of holiness, would their heart, mind, words and actions...

    Forgiveness vs Atonement

    I noticed this while studying Romans 6... Romans 6:19: "I am using an example from everyday life because of your human limitations. Just as you used to offer yourselves as slaves to impurity and to ever-increasing wickedness, so now offer yourselves as slaves to righteousness leading to holiness."

    Forgiveness vs Atonement

    Someone posted scripture yesterday from around John 3:13, "And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven." I would say, the Holy Spirit "clicked" a thought in me, which I hadn't connected or thought of. This is going back to...

    Forgiveness vs Atonement

    I've been thinking about an analogy that works to better understand what you mean by the "sample of His grace". Would it be something like the following? God gifts us his initial grace. It would be like God giving us a very small plant in a pot, which we don't know what it will become. In...

    Forgiveness vs Atonement

    Behold, as you proclaim you are a teacher of God's word, why must you go outside of the Bible to prove Episkopos is wrong? Another member here posted scripture from Hebrews 12:22 which shows Zion is the heavenly kingdom: Surely Behold, if you truly feel Episkopos is wrong with his teachings...

    Forgiveness vs Atonement

    My sincerest apologies. Before making my last post, I did some quick research to see if what I had read or learned earlier, about what Mormonism teaches, were correct or not. I must of read a source which was not accurate per your true beliefs.

    Forgiveness vs Atonement

    From reading many of Episkopos threads and posts, going back long before I even joined up here, I can say no, based on my research and conclusions. I've found Mormon doctrine to have some crazy ideas which differ than what the Bible teaches. Like their "god the father" is part of a line of...

    Hi Farouk, hope you are well. Haven't seen you active here in a long time.

    Quick-Vid of Forgiveness vs Atonement

    I've been thinking about this video, and the full one over the last few days. This is what I understand so far, from also studying through scripture to learn more. Sin separates us from God, for God is Holy. The OT animal sacrifices were always temporary until the next year, where it had to be...

    Quick-Vid of Forgiveness vs Atonement

    How was Jesus able to forgive people before He went to the cross? If God required him to shed his blood first on the cross, in order to forgive people, that would mean Jesus was merely handing out rain checks of forgiveness, which only became valid after the cross.

    Post your dreams here

    I've had some interesting dreams from God lately, where the messages have been clear for the most part after reflection. I'll share one from last night, as God made sure to get my attention about it this morning. The dream started out in my office room. There was garbage littered on the floor...
