    Spirit filled believer?

    No. You are quick to judge here. Any thing I would consider a miracle, which I have experienced or seen, usually has been outside of any church, through out my life. That is with me growing up in a Brethern church until my mid 20's, then attending my last church, the Baptist one, for most of my...

    Spirit filled believer?

    No, the church I left belonged to the North American Baptist group of churches. The one I am currently attending is more of a Pentecostal church.

    Spirit filled believer?

    I've been wondering about this myself, and have been observing other Christians in my life, especially at my current church. A difference in the two types of Christians you are talking about, I would compare to how far or closely they follow Jesus. Someone who wouldn't show much spirit or fruits...

    Which one are you in the story of the Prodigal?

    I don't see him attacking the bible, but asking questions. I find them helpful to turn to God and ask about things for clearer understanding. As an example, there are many things I've noticed, when part of any church, where traditions are created, and people just go along with it, instead of...

    Is the New World Translation a valid version of the Bible?

    We should never listen to man. Only God. That is what He taught me.

    Is the New World Translation a valid version of the Bible?

    It surely messed my understanding of Jesus for over almost 30 years. My parents had a JW friend, who would come afterschool and give me bible lessons, using their translation. At the age of 12, my mom started attending a brethren church, but the confusion lingered on until the age of 35. Blessed...

    Which one are you in the story of the Prodigal?

    You seem quite obsessed with @St. SteVen . Maybe time to go get some fresh air?

    Are Christians the biggest barrier to a renewed relationship with God?

    I always find this part of Genesis interesting. Back in my youth group, a youth leader pointed out how males are hardwired by "sight", and females are hardwired by "touch". If true, where did Adam get that idea to add this rule for Eve?

    Controlling spirit?

    Thank you. I did that this week. A huge weight has been lifted off of me, as I officially left my home church for good.

    Depressed, struggling with serving God in my Church.

    Hello, I thought I would share an update. First, thank you all who have prayed. I decided to officially leave my church. I had been fighting God to stay there, and in doing so, was disobeying him. I returned back for the first time on Sunday to serve in my role as the audio and video tech. I...

    Controlling spirit?

    Hello, Is it possible to be a victim of a "controlling spirit" in a church? Is there such a thing?

    Depressed, struggling with serving God in my Church.

    Thank you everyone for your prayers, it is much appreciated. Since my original post, I experienced health issues, including mental health. I ended up going on leave from my home church to serve, last month, notifying them that I was not doing well, and it was effecting my ability to serve...

    Depressed, struggling with serving God in my Church.

    Please, pray for me. For my own issues first. I struggle with many things. I'm too ashamed to admit. But God has planted me at church, since 2009, in my second church. He took me out out in 2017. I knew then I was spiritually dead. After three trials in the begging in 2019, He brought me back to...

    Post your dreams here

    Its been a year since I had this dream. Yesterday evening, I encountered the "pastor/teacher", at my church's prayer night, which I'm currently leading. I took over back in the spring, when our interim pastor retired. I have no formal training in leading these types of events, and have been...

    What have you cooked lately?

    This is the recipe I used. It also works well as a base recipe for other flavors. https://theloopywhisk.com/2021/05/12/white-chocolate-cheesecake/

    Spiritual Warfare

    I agree with this statement. I want to share that my first time I experienced walking in the Spirit, was for about a month. It happened close to a year after being Born Again. It came to an end, when I willingly let my flesh win over a small matter, and found myself in a miserable state. I have...

    Spiritual Warfare

    Do you believe when one is truly walking in the spirit, they are not able to sin?

    Spiritual Warfare

    What do you make of Jesus' statement from Matthew 5:48? "Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect."

    Is anyone else a Seer?

    I believe you. You mentioned earlier you started this thread to connect with others with the gift. Maybe God wants you to go to Him to learn how to use it, according to His will? He is the one who gave you this gift, so He would know best. I say this, because recently God revealed a spiritual...

    What have you cooked lately?

    I made a keylime cheesecake this week. Last weekend, a white chocolate cheesecake for our church picnic.
