Brother, I have already shared my testimony both here and multiple times on other. forums. One thing about it, I am not shy, lol. But since you mentioned it, I will share it once more so that any who have not read it yet can do so and make up their own minds whether or not it bears witness...

LOL, great dodge. Now, if you do not want to answer the question, I totally get it. This was a hypothetical question to you, one for which you have no answer as it shows the dancing on both sides of the line without having to explain your total inconsistencies of your "take". I can accept your...

I am confused. You are a strong adherent of OSAS, yes? That no sin, past, present or future, cqn separate you from God and your reward in Heaven. So, a man gets saved, follows hard after the Lord, but eventually is convinced that your faith must continue to the end to be saved. To you this is...

No, we are to reckon that we are dead to the old man, and as we believe it, the power of our new nature grows within us. We CAN still sin, but as we believe that God will keep is from falling, and that faith takes root and grows, we discover that although we CAN sin, we DON'T sin. Glory...

The question is not whether or not God will provide the way of escape. The question is.... how can we make sure we take it? The armor He provides us, His sword, and the shield of faith WORK. But, they only work if we put them on. LOL. If after years of walking as Christians, we find that we are...

I dodge nothing, unless I am missing something. At 71, that is always a possibility, lol. blessings to you Gids

We are not to be ignorant of his devices. However, does our God not know how to deliver the godly out of temptation? Temptation is not sin. For a man to be tempted greatly, and never even let our a quiver, let alone a wobble, lol, does this not bring great glory to God? Shall we dodge God's...

So..... what about the power? Are we talking leg lengthenings, or seeing the lame walk..... or, is it something far more glorifying to God. The power to BE witnesses. Not DO witness. BE witnesses. What power is that? God doing it in us, causing us to take the way of escape every time. True...

Then I suspect, since it is God who gives the power to see His name glorified, and wants that for us, He is going to rise up men and women truly kept by the power of God through faith, who can stare down such temptation and bow low to their most beloved God, eyes fixed on Him alone. Amen? Your...

Paul was simply describing the commonality of those trying to keep the law, whether it be the mosaic law or the inner law of trying to please Jesus.... through self effort. How do we know that this was not Paul's testimony as an apostle? We simply read on into Romans 8. In Romans 7, Paul says...

You know that scripture where God's people were "healed only slightly, saying peace, peace, when there is no peace"? That right there. We have living water... in measure. We need the tsunami, but until we tell God our need, and cry out to Him as Paul did to be delivered from ourselves, our old...

My dear sister, I am addressing this to US, with me at the head of the list. This is a whole church problem. There is no question that the Holy Spirit is active today, more in some, less in others, but as to whether or not we are walking as they walked fresh out of Pentecost, other than a few...

Before I say this, I want you and other readers to understand that I am not saying this is a derogatory way all. I say it with sadness and a deep desire to see the move of God that will usher His return. My motive is love and concern. So, here goes. So, if we are taking the Word at face value...

So, how is that working for us? Are we running our race as if there is but one prize? Are we seeing every thought brought into submission to the obedience of Christ? Are we loving one another as Christ loved us? Is His church walking as sojourners, eyes fixed upon Heaven, obeying the Lord with...

Perhaps it goes further than you think. Here is a question we all need to ponder. Do we think those who contend that they indeed have received the Baptism similar to those in the book of Acts are walking in that same single mindedness, loving not the world or the things it offers? Do men...

This post is not about the evils of abortion nor whether or not one party is worse than the other. May I suggest you go back and read my OP? We as His people are far more involved in this world than in the kingdom of God. If we put as much effort into seeking the kingdom of God to come to the...

I meant no harm. I am just asking to think about it. It simply seems to me that the Republican party may have as part of its platform that it is truly anti-abortion, but after four years in power, I do not remember any steps taken in earnest to stop it. No laws passed. No mass Republican rallies...

We have had the Republicans in power for four years. Are abortions still not legal? Again, you are simply being willfully blind to the things needing to be addressed on your aide of things, as if there is nothing to be corrected in your own party of choice. Yet every single slice of juicy bad...

Brother, the lesson is not about being accepted by God, for we who believe in the shed blood of Jesus are accepted. The question rather, is, is He pleased with us. They are in no way the same thing. The Holy Spirit is given, as part of God's salvation, to correct us, to discipline us if we are...

There is none good, save God. If we think we are on high moral ground choosing one party or another, we are again, choosing the lesser of two very carnal, evil, flesh oriented organizations of men. Again, this is not a post about which side is best. Far from it. It is about the church looking...
