Hi @April_Rose, Faith, Hope and Experience were walking along a wall, Hope was fine as long as he kept his eyes on Faith, but when he looked around to look at Experience, he fell off the wall, along with Experience, but Faith went walking on. We must keep our eyes stayed on our Saviour, Who...

'For whom He did foreknow, He also did pre-destinate to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.' (Romans 8:29) 'As for me, I will behold Thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy Likeness.' (Psalm 17:15)...

Hello @Stuart, As you will already know, faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God (Romans 10:17). So read the word of God concerning the resurrection in such chapters as 1 Corinthians 15, and ask God to give you the faith to believe what you read. You have told us that you believe...

Hello @quietthinker Yes, our Lord Himself tells us what parables are intended to portray in Matthew 13:11, they present 'the mysteries of the Kingdom of God'. The explanation for each parable was given to His disciples, as those who did indeed have ears to hear and hearts open to receive it...

'And the disciples came, and said unto Him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.' (Mat 13:10) Hi @Nancy, Jesus spoke in parables following His...

Hello @101G, Yes, praise God! You must follow the Scriptures, I agree :) There are tantalising possible routes to take in order to come to a conclusion about this, such as that of Zacharias, the Priest, and the course of Abib, etc., as well as that which you have quoted. However I do not...

'And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I...

@Base12 @DPMartin @Pearl @101G @Heart2Soul @firstthings1st. Hello there, Thank you all for your contributions, links and comment. My source of information regarding the OP was the Appendix notes in my Bible. * The Lord was 'begotten of the Holy Ghost' by Divine power on 1st Tebeth, or...

Hi @Nancy, Yes! Happy New Year to you too, Nancy!! You in your small corner, and I in mine. ;) Within the love of Christ our Saviour Chris xx

'The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence.' (Psa 115:17) Hello there @April_Rose Death is the absence of life. Physical life. It cannot be a spiritual death, because man is born with a natural body and not a spiritual one (1 Corinthians 15:44-46). That is why it...

@BOWnQUIVER, Hello there, Wonderful as it is that I can 'know' God, and His Son the Lord Jesus Christ, by the Holy Spirit, it is even more wonderful to me that He could 'know' me! 'And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know. But if any man love...

Hello @mailmandan I have not read through the thread, or considered it's subject matter, but was drawn to what you had written. What a wonderful word of truth this is! I came across it myself again in my studies this week and rejoiced in it once more. The whole prayer is wonderful, but...

Hello @Ziggy, I have not read the thread, so have no idea what the subject matter is, but was drawn to your entry, and the link you provided. This is a very powerful piece of music, it's lyrics, the voice, and the music itself certainly get the message home, and exposes what sadly is the...

Hello there, Considering December the 25th and the use made of it by Christendom to celebrate the birth of the Lord Jesus Christ, the wonderful fact that He was actually born on the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles, and the significance of that, is lost to the majority of believers...

Hi @Nancy, After a year filled with dire reports, and the corona virus, I hope that you have time during this holiday period, to sit with a cup of cocoa and a mince pie, and enjoy reading about the birth of the Lord Jesus, God's only begotten Son, and be thankful. We don't need a holiday in...

Hello @Gailhunter, Thank you for the questions, I would like to answer the first one, 'Define Repentance?', for I believe that will determine the answers to the rest. * The words, 'repentance' and 'repent' are used to translate two Hebrew words, 'nacham' (and its derivatives) and 'shub'; and...

Hello @BarnyFife In quoting 'go and sin no more', and using it as you have, the implication is that you believe it possible for the believer to indeed, sin no more. Yet, in John's letters we are told that if we say that we are without sin that we lie. We are to reckon ourselves to be dead...

Replies #54-57, Hello @BarnyFife, It is obvious from your responses (above), that I have annoyed you by my entries. They were addressed to you as the one whose thread it was, and not always in response to anything you had said personally. Thank you In Christ Jesus Chris

'But of Him are ye in Christ Jesus, Who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let Him glory in the Lord.' (1Corinthians 1:30-31) Hello @BarnyFife, The believer finds that instead of...
