    How to be an honest Christian thinker.

    According to the Bible, is the wonderful counselor the Holy Spirit of the Son of God????? Is 9:6 For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of...

    How to be an honest Christian thinker.

    We people are easily hurt and often reject people. In the Bible we read that Jesus Christ was hurt and He was rejected!! What we really need to ask ourselves is: Are we hurting Jesus Christ and are we rejecting Him? The fact is that we all do that!! That is the whole message in the Bible -...

    How to be an honest Christian thinker.

    I was a church one day, helping in the bookstore. The Lord had given me the responsibility of taking care of the used book rack the store had. A man came in and was telling me about our pastor's new study that he was doing at 5 am, for those wanting to get up early before work. The man was...

    How to be an honest Christian thinker.

    Not according to the Bible! According to the Bible the Word is near you, in your heart and and mouth. And that is the word of faith we are preaching! Now the Bible is not always near you, but God is omni-present and Jesus (Who is the Word of God and God) said He would never leave you! Now the...

    How to be an honest Christian thinker.

    Did your pastor tell you anything about seeking Jesus Christ and listening to what our Lord has to say to you about those verses???? I don't mean to come across snippy - but I don't understand: That is: I get up in the morning and usually hear my Lord's voice talking to me. So if I read a...

    How to be an honest Christian thinker.

    Jesus Christ is not "in the Bible" He will come into you if you let Him. The way you let Him in is to listen to Him! He is a person, the Son of God, the Christ - and His name is called "The Word of God". His sheep hear His voice, and anyone can start hearing from Him! It is explained in the...

    How to be an honest Christian thinker.

    Episkipos - I enjoy your post. I like posts on this forum that get me thinking. Now my thinking winds up getting me to take the thoughts to Jesus Christ and listen to Him on that subject. Now when I listen to Him I find His thinking is far beyond mine, but that does not mean He is hard to hear...

    How to be an honest Christian thinker.

    I like the OP though it seems a bit unclear. I thought I might try a clear a few things up. First is that we are not trying to understand the Bible but rather we need to be trying to understand what God what for us - as in what God wants us to do. So if our opening question thoughts are "How to...

    Discerning God

    You have badly misinterpreted both the verses - and that because you think the Bible is the word of God instead of Jesus Christ - and the ironic thing is that both the places in the Bible point to Jesus Christ!! Have you not read where Jesus said He was the Truth??? So if you read that the...

    Discerning God

    The Word of God we preach is found in our hearts and mouth. Have we not read this???? Rom 10:8 But what does it say? “THE WORD IS NEAR YOU, IN YOUR MOUTH AND IN YOUR HEART”—that is, the word of faith which we are preaching, So the Bible is not the Word of God we preach - He is!! Rev 19:13 He...

    Discerning God

    The Lord is awesome! There is none like Him! He chooses His words carefully, and being God and even Him through whom we were created, He always knows the exact right thing to say!! Never-the-less - He is also always with us, so how often should we hear from Him? Everyday called "Today", right...

    Discerning God

    Yes the voice of Jesus Christ our Lord is "Gentle" and "kind" and His sheep know His voice. They hear it. Still there is a bit more we are to know! Jesus came preaching the Kingdom of God!! So we should also know something about that. Sometimes even those serving don't know about the Kingdom of...

    Discerning God

    Jesus being Lord is an important test we can use! 1 Cor 12:3 Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God says, “Jesus is accursed”; and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit. Now I believe it is important that we not only understand that Jesus...

    Discerning God

    The Lord has different purposes for different people, so of course what one person hears is not always going to be the same as another!!! The point is that we need to listen to the Lord!! Now as far as if I get reproved by Him? Of course!! Indeed look at the verse before Rev 19:20!! Rev...

    Discerning God

    Absolutely there are many other spirits around!! God has put before us both good and evil - and only God is good! Yet knowing that is not discernment! Knowing that means we need to use discernment! The gift of discernment is from the Holy Spirit - so it is the Holy Spirit who brings us the...

    Discerning God

    Discernment of spirits is a good topic to have, and one seeming to need some serious discussion! God put before us both good and evil and we need to choose good - and note: only God is good. Our Lord Jesus Christ is the Word of God, because He owns the words of God. They were given to Him by...

    Roe overturned….

    It is a good day. Thank God The abortion issue is an interesting and very emotional issue. I find it interesting, because I don't see it as a big deal to me and never have. Mostly because I am a male and because I have always tried to be responsible. So, I always figured if I was responsible...

    Judgement, Conviction, Condemnation, Reproof

    Is 1 16-18“Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean; Remove the evil of your deeds from My sight. Cease to do evil, Learn to do good; Seek justice, Reprove the ruthless, Defend the orphan, Plead for the widow .“Come now, and let us reason together,” Says the LORD, “Though your sins are as...

    "God told me..."

    In the bible we read about a man with seven sons who used the name Jesus and indeed found demons! They beat that man and his son's up pretty bad! So why does the story have seven sons - isn't it because there are a full number of sons of someone who don't really understand what it means to do...
