    Making Scripture Simple

    The understanding of the word is that collection of scriptures that showcases Jesus Christ as the word. Like dividing soul and spirit, it is done by the "word" Christ. Your understanding of Christ as the word will be how you can make the division of soul and spirit. If you try to take scripture...

    Now it's not me, but sin that lives in me

    And Paul has the benefit of being a strick law keeper, and now born again and speaking from that perspective.

    Now it's not me, but sin that lives in me

    Good comment. We didn't do to good the first time taking on sin as a nature. The sin nature, being dealt with at the cross, has left it's mark on the soul/mind. It is in the cross where everything is taken care of and our hope. The struggle I have as a believer will be in thinking I have a life...

    Discovering Christ

    The understanding of Christ as our life in scriptures is what the word is. The word comes alive in you by the understanding of scripture and what they have to say about it. So I don't look for something in the scriptures, but they are searched for someone. And the discovery of Christ in you...

    Bible Study--The Seeds In Scripture, take a look

    What a great study. There are things in scripture that just get more attention because they have more effect. The two seeds is one of those in my understanding, the two nature's is another. First and last Adam is another. Rightly dividing the word of truth. And dividing soul and spirit. Those to...

    Bible Study--The Seeds In Scripture, take a look

    Yes, cantankerous Peter I referr to him at times. Tough fishermen chosen by Jesus to walk by his side and learn. Learn they did, the church is still being built on the Rock. I love the way you cover so many bases starting in Mathew and giving scripture and back into John, wonderful. Thank you...

    Bible Study--The Seeds In Scripture, take a look

    Thank you sister. I like it, lay the hammer down lol. It needs to be said that way when you have an absolute in scripture and "being born again" is an absolute cause that needs presented in an absolute gesture and you do that. I love that thank you.

    Bible Study--The Seeds In Scripture, take a look

    Thanks for commenting. I could only watch a short portion of the video and enjoyed what he was saying. I did catch he was addressing more of what may have happened after the fall than what was the cause of the fall or received at the point of disobedience. Very good what I watched. So it was...

    Bible Study--The Seeds In Scripture, take a look

    23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. - 1 Peter 1:23. When we were born again, it was by Christ you were born again. Look at scripture, they tell you to believe. When you believe, it is Christ that is the...

    Knowing Truth

    So how does that releave a believer from standing against other beliefs. The word takes care of itself. Now there is a time for defending truth and what not but the scriptures are very clear in "whom they declare."

    Knowing Truth

    32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. - John 8:32. You can take the scriptures and form any kind of opinion, but you cannot do that with the word. The word is a person, can you see something there. Can you see the difference? That is separating the word from...

    Scriptures Vs The Word

    Scriptures vs the word 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. - John 1:1. Did you know the scriptures are different from the word. Scripture is the written word of God and the word of God is the person of Christ. What we know is everybody can use the...

    Soul And Spirit Division

    3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. - John 3:3. 4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? 5 Jesus answered...

    Negative And Positive

    15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace, 16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood: - Galatians 1:15-16. There is a thing we call negative separation, and...

    Separation

    12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. - Hebrews 4:12. The word of God is sharp and powerful. Look at...

    Living by Christ knowledge

    What is key when witnessing? A witness is sharing what you know. It comes across as pushy sometimes maybe or lack of knowing how to handle a person or persons. Handling how you deal with people will be a life long process. Bringing Christ forth in what we do can be a process as well. Having...

    Allowing Christ

    A good example of life is say you need counseling of some type. Do you want my opinion or do you really need to hear from heaven. You don't need me, you need Christ in me right now, right then. What does scripture say "be ready to give all men an answer, what is that? Christ alive. Paul had the...

    Allowing Christ

    15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. 16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? but we have the mind of Christ. - 1 Corinthians 2:15-16. How does Christ operate in the world. What means does he use to operate as Himself...

    Trying to quit smoking

    I thought of a story an old bubby told me how he quit. When he would get to where he just couldn't fight it he would say "ok Lord we are getting ready to have a cigarette" and he would smoke. He said eventually it got a little easier and he could quit. Not saying that would work for everyone but...

    Trying to quit smoking

    You made a statement that that you quit and started again because you couldn't cope with certain things and started again on my own at 19. That doesn't matter, you are not supposed to know anything at 19 or how to cope. Point is it don't matter, what matters is you want to quit. So look at your...
