    Did God start out a fool, and become wise? Or was God a mystery to Himself, and set out to write it down? (laughing?)

    Hi there, So this is just cloud gazing sort of stuff, designed to prompt you to think about the truth, in a more engaging way. The subject is "God". But the subject is viewed in a contradictory way, from the perspective of an absence of time. The first idea is fairly simple: did God have a...

    Prophetic dream/ vision:

    Wow! Interesting stuff. You are right anticipation of evil is key: the Church was commended by Paul to develop gifts of prophecy (especially). I think what is troubling is that the Church does not fix the steps to faith. That won't happen without a deep reverence of the Lord (for which we need...

    The anti-Christ can resurrect sin and pretend to have created the world - what is faith's answer?

    In addition to this, let it be noted, that the Holy Spirit can resurrect 'spirit'. If the Holy Spirit can resurrect 'spirit', then He will never die. The anti-Christ resurrecting 'sin', will always die.

    Any caregivers to family here?

    I've been cared for. It's really taxing on the caregiver, but ultimately God makes their character strong. If you live in Australia on the disability pension, don't forget that your caregiver can get cheap movie tickets!

    Scripture says "in His Name, the Gentiles will trust" - what will 'Evolutionist Gentiles' trust in Jesus?

    It is possible that we win the fight, to define Evolution properly, with attrition. No one believes Evolution applies to every thing and also every way - from there it is just a matter of helping EGs negotiate a partial surrender. Once a partial surrender has been in place, for some time, the...

    Scripture says "in His Name, the Gentiles will trust" - what will 'Evolutionist Gentiles' trust in Jesus?

    I know what tests EGs: potential-binding (the act of putting together potential, as a coherent whole). Evolution is an example of potential-binding, but potential-binding is not an example of Evolution.

    Prophecy that is Based on the Literal, Plain Word of God

    @Arthur81 I appreciate what you are trying to say. You've got the passage of the Holy Spirit, right there! EDIT: Also, you might want to look at the plain prophecy of different Churches.

    Living what we preach. Faith alone vs faith with works

    I think that when people preach "saved by grace and not by works", they do the righteous thing by the inspiration they have been given - but they fail to the child-like thing of presenting it in a way that mirrors God's inspiration, nor do they welcome Jesus' inspiration to take over where their...

    In Creation, you love Jesus; in Evolution, what do you love? (evolve 'love'? thoughts?)

    I think what it is you love, in Evolution, is "change". The Bible says "have no other gods before me", but I think Evolutionists make a 'god of change'. It's a sin. It makes sense to say "I will change my kind, Lord willing" - then you are doing something with what Evolution promises. But to...

    My thoughts on how to do God's will

    You have the intent of the Holy Spirit, right there!

    In Creation, you love Jesus; in Evolution, what do you love? (evolve 'love'? thoughts?)

    I think what it is, is that for every member of the species, God is the one God. If wolves and dogs were different species, they would have a different God (to each other). When we say God is "the God of Mankind", we are saying 'it doesn't matter what kind of human we are, we have the same God".

    The religion of the Antichrist

    Well, attraction to sin is a dangerous thing (so attraction can't be all good). But as to the religion of the anti-Christ, I assume he will be Jewish (reading Torah, attending synagogue, etc.). As I have said, the anti-Christ has the power to resurrect sin, so in a sense he has a religion of...

    In Creation, you love Jesus; in Evolution, what do you love? (evolve 'love'? thoughts?)

    No, that's hogwash. Dogs are wolves and wolves are dogs, is what you would say. I wish someone would say something that makes people understand that new kinds aren't new species!

    In Creation, you love Jesus; in Evolution, what do you love? (evolve 'love'? thoughts?)

    I think what it comes down to, is that you have to want to evolve, into something that advances Jesus' Kingdom. Like if "a cowardly dog, is better than a dead lion", you should want to become a dog, that can boast of his cowardice. Or if "there is an elephant in the room", you should want to...

    Are you a Christian in name only?

    If you are backsliding, there is still hope. I struggled for a long time with this; what it comes down to is: do you trust God's perspective on your faith?

    Does anyone else get this particular telemarketer call?

    Apparently they can synthesize the voice of members of your family, now - Mum and I have a secret code word, that if the scammer can't guess, we just hang up!

    Let me clarify this. I believe in "OSNAS" Scripturally, but...

    I think its like remodelling your car, you might even think "I wish I had the old model again" but there is just no way you will go back to an old model. What you need is a second wind, a new appreciation of the new model. That means relying on God.

    Unknowns, are better for science, than repetitions of what is assumed to be known (selah)

    Maybe this relates to "evolving love", maybe Evolution gives you a love of the unknown?

    What prophecy do you hold, that you would be prepared to die for? (many?)

    Not to twist your ear, about being ready to die: but do you realise that the faith will be there (on Earth), long after you have been resurrected? After you have faced death, and been resurrected? I wonder what the last death, will be like!
