First let me say-- You are asking all the right questions, and certainly asking is the best approach--not that there are not dangers, and more false than true who would answer. Remember--your best Guide..."is within you." That is a big question, as is the answer: Time is an illusion (even...

It is not so much a matter of whether the correct word is "within" or "among", but rather what is meant by "the kingdom of God." The message then is not so much a matter of "finding" the kingdom of God, or being in or out of it, but first realizing that in or out we are under His rule and...

So, carry on as it is written, "Pause and wonder! Blind yourselves and be blind!"

You decide your own fate by who and what you gravitate to. Which is not a dilemma I have established, but He whose hands we are all in. I have only told you what you did not know about it.

You assume too much. Your loss.

The indication is that we all are born out of or from God. Which, yes, means you too have come out from God. The point being...that because our roots stem from that place of God; and because we are told and learn by our own experience here, that this lesser existence is as if we are walking dead...

Good, that's a start. Of which I also stated. I meant "you all" as a religious sect. Since you insist that the it is the leaders of your sect that are in charge, I specifically meant you who believe them to be of their "own authority." Nothing false, just what you have projected.

I was not referring to me as being mocked by you--although that too is quite telling--but to the fact that you mock and scoff against the Holy Spirit apparently in anyone but the leaders of the church...which is not even biblical. As for the scriptures, you also apparently have not read them...

That is not a true statement. Scripture (by Joel) tells of God pouring out His spirit upon all flesh--not just Peter, Popes, or leaders of the church. Which was then confirmed by both Jesus and Peter, and by historical record on the day of Pentecost. In addition, there is much more written...

Reported.

The very thing that was promised--you mock. Very telling. Peter spoke of this.

I claim nothing as my own.

Yes, and a little bit of information should even be considered dangerous--and that is often all that opinion and speculation is. It's like after attending the first grade, assuming to be qualified to then teach the remaining six grades of elementary school. Surely, it's just a clear indication...

Your hypothesis assumes that human logic is correct. It's not Consider/remember this is that same Peter, lovable as he was, whose previous actions were rebuked by Jesus, saying to him (calling him by name) "Get behind Me, Satan!", and who "three times denied knowing" Jesus who then dressed him...

Better to listen than to open ones mouth and begin to theorize as if actually knowing anything. Fools rush in.

Why do you theorize--do you not know that was the very reason the Bride was told to be silent in church?

It is good that you are open minded and perhaps willing, but the limit is self-imposed. Meaning that, yes, one who only opens the door a crack will only have a crack of partial exposure by the same measure. Which is not uncommon--actually a very basic human condition. You see, we in fact all...

Go as spies into the land, fear not the giants, and stand with Joshua and Caleb when giving your report. God is with you!

None of which makes void the other half of what is written that shows Peter as lovingly, "Satan", and three-time "denier of knowing Christ" dressed down by Jesus before being redeemed. But what is written of the Holy Spirit, the power of God given to the church? "He will not speak on His own...
