    Gossip...what purpose does have?

    gossiping is bad. If you don't like it if others share your private information then don't do it to others and that's right, it could be false information or something else bad to it.

    Do you believe building on spiritual foundations found on and in Christ are beneficial to you in the afterlife?

    in other words, those who are called great in the kingdom of heaven will have more and those who are called least in the kingdom of heaven will have less so I believe in this. it's just that I want to be called great in the kingdom of heaven but I don't know if I can get there :(

    Do you believe building on spiritual foundations found on and in Christ are beneficial to you in the afterlife?

    the bible says that some will be called great in the kingdom of heaven and others least in the kingdom of heaven, but both are eligible to be in heaven, it's just some did greater than others in Christ.

    What does it mean "there is no condemnation in Christ Jesus".....

    the "repent or perish" I just briefly saw in someone else's thread but I think it's really there in the Bible, I just don't know in what context it was written though I think it might've been written to Christians vs non-Christians, I'm not sure! I just had to write, I think I will always be...

    I don't understand what you're saying. I think this is a parable of the prodigal son in the Word and so it's for Christians. The heart of the Father was always looking out for him and they celebrated a big party when he returns but he still doesn't get the promises of God, right? And he's...

    let me review the Prodigal son story in my head. God was always looking out for this son who fell away and he had a big party when he had come back to being a Christian again but he doesn't get the same promises as Christians do and he's in danger of going to hell if he does not turn back.

    one of the best times Satan can tempt you is when you're alone. He will say, you want it (which when you look in God's eyes it's just a counterfeit, it's actually not what God wants and therefore not what's best for you, for you to wait) and then AFTER you've done it, then... I've explained...

    The devil at most was only able to say that I was unclean, dirty and to look at me suffer and say that I was probably going to go to hell but wasn't able to fool me that I was not going to be forgiven if I repent

    Actually to me I think it was the Holy Spirit speaking to me, the things that were said to me when I didn't listen to God was: this is what you've done, don't do it, you're a sinner, you're dirty, repent, if you confess your sins I AM faithful and just to forgive you and cleanse you from all...

    I think though that both the Holy Spirit and the devil speaks to us when we sin or don't listen to God: the Holy Spirit being a feeling of conviction and burden and a feeling of bondage, that we're not feeling free and the devil tells us we're sinners, we're dirty.

    Have No Idea What To Title This!

    by knowing that when the Holy Spirit prompts us not to do something, we shouldn't do it and we should trust it because it's from God and it means there's something wrong with it that God can see but we might not be able to see it. I hope that helps, quietthinker. You've got to fight the good...

    Should We Be Forcing Education On Children?

    being home-schooled is almost like being in a cage, in my opinion. You only get to be with and know your parents and you don't have a whole class to pick out your peer friends. When I was in school, I've never been deceived by a teacher, they were professional and kids only wear masks today for...

    "fruit" of the Spirit

    it seems like it's saying 'Against' "such things" there is no law but so they (love, kindness, gentleness, self-control, etc) ARE laws! Right? And what kind of law.

    "fruit" of the Spirit

    Sorry, I truthfully still don't understand what it means 'against such things there is no law', Can someone explain something short and direct of what it means? Thanks and sorry!

    How was your day?

    I had a pretty good day. I went out with family and spent time with them. I ate dinner at a restaurant. I spent $4 something on a green tea bottle and wasn't thinking that much about the cost. Then I wanted the dessert at the restaurant and my mom said no, since I spent a lot of money on my...

    Love

    I love it Johann, that means if I love the Lord it's not a feeling, it's the act of obedience and following, always fighting the good fight and there's always something wrong with sin or not being obedient if God tells us.

    Love

    true love is not really a feeling, it's the act and bond (time spent with each other) you have with one another and then the feeling too.
