The effects of any intoxicant are determined by the contents of the heart and in whom one places trust. Wisdom dictates they be avoided, but the Spirit guides as He will and all things are pure to the pure.

Thank you for the input. The clarity of my testimony will come with practice, as I can't help but testify of God's marvelous wonders. It seems the word I received pertained to the initiation of topics. Thus, I may respond, but I will no longer establish original posts. Thank you for understanding!

To those who hear the call, to those who seek the meaning, We are You are I Am. The Kingdom is present.

Anyone with a true spiritual experience of Jesus knows they are changed forever and never going back. How they come about that experience varies wildly. I would not seek to evaluate my own as it is not my place to judge what the Lord gives me, only to serve with gratitude. My life has been...

How to Spot a Liar For clarity, a simple definition as I apply the word here; one who speaks or writes or does something that is not true; a mind mired in falsehood and death; a liar. The easiest give-away is the declaration of what God cannot do, any expression to the effect of "The Creator...

The contention here is that I say that Jesus Christ is the all powerful Creator God who did not joke nor exaggerate when He stated that every hair on each head is accounted for. Others would disagree, and suggest that the Lord only meant He could count them if He felt like it. Why is His...

This is the best part, I know both doubt and Certainty. I used to have so much doubt that love was the only certainty I had left for the ongoing experience of it. Now I know the Truth! I have experienced Him! And so I write about it because that is what He told me to do and I love following His...

What you say is true! I don't say "God says verbatim," I say that I'm led to express my experience, as I do here and elsewhere.

It is from my experience that I testify, by order of Whom I testify. If the boldness of my audacity shocks you, have you considered how it may be that I articulate as I do in the absence of fear for hell fire or the condemnation of men? How else am I to tell what the Lord has done for me but by...

You are right, it would be better if one could testify exclusively of Christ without any mention of self. It is an effort.

I would be much more worried if I didn't know Him.

I'll put it another way. I seek nothing. I want nothing. I am after nothing. I have everything I want and that's why I am here! Because I was looking for something just like what I write now when I was still lost. It is for the joy of what I have discovered that I testify! I watched the first...

In the manner I prefer to think, restatement is extremely valuable. Saying the same idea in different words and expressing the same concept with alternate phrasing serves to define, illuminate, and reiterate more emphatically the root of what is being conveyed. With sufficient study and...

Thank you for yours! What you say is true, and the humility to live as you say is itself a blessing. Without His Spirit, we would have no forgiveness in us to offer. With the gift of His forgiveness, with the knowledge of His truth, all is forgiven. This is really huge for me because the...

Better to err in the attempt to do right than to err in the certainty of doing wrong.

Need it? I love it! Here's a bit about how I follow Jesus... I'm an ordinary guy with extraordinary experience, the most extraordinary of those being the certainty of Jesus Christ. To me, He is an experience, the Creator and Master of all sensation (of which we have more than five, thank you...

@Eternally Grateful You were right, I was wrong. I did get puffed up and I could not even see it. How shameful. I apologize! I will be that much quicker to check my childishness from now on, thank you. I mean to explain based on good sense and reasoning how things look if we make a fair...

A bit more about prayer as I experience it. I used to pray in the form of open request make request "in Jesus' name" incantation close request I learned this is not a prayer. This is a request, a petition. These are for the dead, they petition God for His mercy (but the idea is that they're...

The following Scripture is from an American translation, the Complete Bible, by Smith and Goodspeed, 1948 Matthew 6:9-13 Our Father in heaven Your name be revered! Your kingdom come! Your will be done On earth as well as in heaven! Give us today bread for the day, And forgive us our debts, as...

I'm so glad it is His will alone, as all others are falsehood. Animosity is of falsehood, just like enmity, strife, slander, perjury, prideful vanity, mockery and scoffing, arrogant condescension, and disbelief. I stand here and declare the power of the all powerful God to be absolute and...
