I never said I believed in the higher walk. I just wanted to know how difficult and exclusive Episkopos considers it to be.

Post removed. Sorry @Behold

I clearly need more self-control... Ive laughed way too hard at some of the negative "behaviours" here recently. Ever just read a crazy post in a weird voice? Its hilarious! I appreciate those laughs. The more I abide in Jesus and His Word, the more control I have. I believe it comes from...

It depends on what you mean by 'of course'. 1 John 2:6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.

I should be clear. By supernatural experience, I don't necessarily mean being born again, I mean the higher walk Episkopos has mentioned before. What makes a higher walk Christian separate from a non higher walk Christian? Can any Christian get the higher walk?

In agreement

@Episkopos I believe the goal of Christians is to walk as Jesus walked on the earth. That means leaving our sinful pasts behind, believing in Jesus, living righteously, overcoming sin, and serving our neighbors with love. My question is, do you believe that its possible for any believer to...

Why or why not?

Even after being born again, we can be both distanced from God and eventually separated again through not continuing in God's goodness like the Israelites were. Romans 11:20-22 20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear: 21 For...

I think I understand? Are you saying that people are posting Scriptures and misapplying them because the Holy Spirit is not backing their understanding of it?

Am I dead to self? No. There is still a cross to carry and nails to drive in. The me that would live a comfortable life at the expense of others still needs to die. The me that envys the wicked with money and property needs to die. The me that can be distracted by junk media, entertainment...

Hi Sis! Id say its both the Spirit and the Word. Spirit and Truth. James 1:21 King James Version 21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. 1 Peter 1:23 King James Version 23 Being born...

It's better to suffer the afflictions of Christ than enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season. Jesus is Worthy! He's better than money, comfort, sin, vanity, anything! Praise Him with me! He still heals! He still delivers! He is control! He is greater than your storm, your affliction! He is...

Praise the living God!!

I'd say so.

Thank you, also. I actually strongly agree that charity is not the government's responsibility. I was more being facetious. I think its shameful that people perceive government programs as more helpful than churches.

Powerless? No. I still have the power to live am excellent life.

I guess Ive always thought of the term sins of omission as too vague. How do you know which things you aren't doing count against you? You said knowing to do something but then neglecting it. I agree that's what it is. But to me that says were being held accpuntable for a conscious decision...

I've attended many churches where the message from the pulpit is that tithing 10 percent of a members income each week is a spiritual issue. The pastor or a ministry leader will say that not tithing ten percent to the church is robbing God and that it withholds God's financial blessing on...

I follow an online Bible study group too. Its great that Bible teachers are using zoom. How long have you taught?
