    Yes, yes, we all believe in Jesus; now let's get onto the important stuff!

    Have we never read that what you hear whispered in your ear shout on the house tops?????? Maybe we read something about "by your testimony? It is nice to sit quietly and just spend time talking to the Lord. I like to talk to Him in the car, the shower, and especially on walks. But perhpas in...

    Yes, yes, we all believe in Jesus; now let's get onto the important stuff!

    Too often I see people trying to be God instead of turning people too Jesus Christ our Lord God!! He has told me to preach the Word, but specifically He said. "Karl, I want you to preach the Word, but not as it is so often preached today. I want you to preach I AM the Word of God." When He...

    Abiding And Walking In Christ

    I love the verse!!! But what about the interpretation of it? To understand the verse we must know how Jesus actually walked?? Why did He go where is did, do what He did, and even say what He said? Jn 12:49 “For I did not speak on My own initiative, but the Father Himself who sent Me has given...

    Yes, yes, we all believe in Jesus; now let's get onto the important stuff!

    Do we all believe in Jesus and if so, how much????????? Did we not read in the Bible anything about people of little faith (His disciples actually) and those with greater faith, and about that centurion? You remember - that Roman centurion who Jesus explained that He had not seen anyone with so...

    Your part & God's part

    Yeah - I can't get to heaven unless He does it- But it goes farther than that!!! My self effort doesn't even get it done here on earth. It is written to seek first the Kingdom of God and all these things will be added to you - soooo to only imply that applies to getting to heaven is missing...

    Your part & God's part

    Because I believe I can't lose my salvation does not mean that I am trusting in Christ and not myself. Hearing Him and doing what He asks means I am trusting in Him and not myself! Remember there are many on that day who will tell Him about how they did things in His name only to be told by Him...

    Your part & God's part

    Jesus never leaving us means a whole lot more than "that you can't lose your salvation"!!!! It means that He is always with us to talk to us!!!! The Word of God we preach is near us!! That is the Word of God we are preaching, and Jesus Christ is the Word of God!! Jesus Christ is called the...

    Your part & God's part

    God is omni-present and Jesus Christ is God. He said He would never leave us! Does a parent leave their baby alone? No - and neither does Jesus Christ leave His babies alone. Why do you even think like that? I am not saying that the Lord does not use the church to teach, but if He has not...

    Your part & God's part

    I wasn't going to church when God came into my life. My parents had taken me to church as a kid. The church taught me lots of things in Sunday school classes, but what they didn't teach me was that the Lord was actually there for me to talk to!! That Christian church with all there Sunday school...

    Your part & God's part

    It is after you lead someone to Christ that you really don't need to teach them, isn't it.??? I mean if they don't actually know the Lord and listen to them then they might need some teaching from the Lord that comes through you from you listening to Him, but they don't need it if they are...

    Your part & God's part

    The OP seems to be about leading people to Jesus Christ - RIGHT? RIGHT? So how then do we come to a conclusion "then you ar to teach them the basics of Faith."?????? Is not Jesus Christ called the Teacher?? Is it not written that they will all be taught of God?? And there is something about...

    Craving God but not experiencing Him or His power

    The Lord once told me "A mite is an animal that gets under the skin to get at the blood, but I want a more personal relationship than that." Of course we depend on the power of God, or our existence, our needs, our battles with the dark spiritual forces of this world, and basically for our life...

    The Spirit...and All Authority

    The Lord once told me, "Understanding is understanding I am Understanding!" He has the funniest and brilliant ways to put things. The Great I Am is Understanding! Prov 7:4 Say to wisdom, “You are my sister,” And call understanding your intimate friend. Prov 8:4 “Counsel is mine and sound...

    The Spirit...and All Authority

    We understand that Jesus Christ was always the Word of God - right? Jn 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into...

    The Spirit...and All Authority

    I like the OP and the topic, but it's not exactly right. Actually the authority of the One sent is the authority of the One who sends!! This is a really important point to understand. For example; If a king sends an ambassador with his words, then that ambassador has the fully authority of...

    How to be an honest Christian thinker.

    I like the above post! We do get the revelation through the Holy Spirit by listening to His words, which are spirit. However, it is the Son (Jesus Christ who gets the glory) according to both the Father and the Spirit! Indeed the Holy Spirit has such a great desire to glorify the Son that the...

    How to be an honest Christian thinker.

    What does "WITH AND OPEN MIND" mean? I love the writings of C. S. Lewis. He was quite a thinker. Still, there are very smart people, and there is the Lord. If by "an open mind" we mean that a smart person tries to open up to what Jesus Christ is saying to them, and considers what they get, that...

    How to be an honest Christian thinker.

    It does mean that the Father, Son, and Spirit are One God, but Jesus Christ (the Son) is the One being glorified according to the desires of the Father and the Spirit. So it is that the Father put His Son on the throne and gave all His things to the Son, and that means the words of God. The...

    How to be an honest Christian thinker.

    Yes indeed!! I was taken to Sunday school when I was a child, but like you the message I heard presented gave the expectation that Jesus must either be dead or in a far-off place called heaven. So when on my own I didn't go to church anymore. Why go to church sense they didn't know God? But when...

    How to be an honest Christian thinker.

    Below is a bit to go through, but it is all the same a before, which is we need to seek Jesus Christ as the living Word of God and thus listen to Him!! The Holy Spirit is there to make that happen for us! Which as mentioned over and over and over to you is that the Holy Spirit does not speak to...
