One of my favorite verses is: Prov 2:6 For the LORD gives wisdom; From His mouth come knowledge and understanding. That being the case then "Christian Spirituality" must mean getting wisdom!!!! So then, if I want to know what the "wise" thing to do it I need to seek the voice that comes out...

Really? Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, “Indeed, has God said, ‘You shall not eat from any tree of the garden’?” The woman said to the serpent, “From the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat; but from the...

I really appreciate some of the thoughts in the OP - but then some I fine just a troubling. I would like to find a people who like sitting down and talking about the Lord Jesus Christ. Yet it is not about church really. I sometimes, but not usually, can find someone who really knows the Lord...

Regardless - that crafty lying snake was in the Garden and talking to Eve - so which ever you want to think has to included that fact!!

Rev 20: 1,2 Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand. And he laid hold of the dragon, the serpent of old, who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years;

Why??? Theology is our understanding of God. And I am sure that your probably do think that Satan and His messenger (demons) are not around. Yet it is written, FOR THE HEART OF THIS PEOPLE HAS BECOME DULL, AND WITH THEIR EARS THEY SCARCELY HEAR, AND THEY HAVE CLOSED THEIR EYES; Who might...

NOOOOOOOOO!! God doesn't lie, and that serpent of old (Satan) only lies!! So even the thought: that both would be telling the truth shows a problem with discernment of spirits!! Look closer at what that snake was telling EVE: Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field which...

The response is interesting. Of course one verse does not cancel another, but both must be correct, and understanding comes from the mouth of the Lord. (Prov 2:6) Jn 8:44“You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and...

Will Smith? HA! Ha! We have a friend in Jesus. And of Him we read Ps 78 Listen, O my people, to my instruction; Incline your ears to the words of my mouth. I will open my mouth in a parable; I will utter dark sayings of old, I love the little sayings a parables He tells me, and like to write...

Yeah - that is who told me this parable. I probably messed it up a bit before I got it written down later, but I liked it.

There was this guy stranded on a desert island. It was dark and he was a little cold from the wind coming off the sea. He was groping around in the sand for something to start a fire with so he could get warm and see. He finds this lamp, and rubbing the lamp.... whooossssshh OUT COMES A GENIE...

Answered??? You ask for a discussion - but you take the position like you have the answers?? The answers come from the Lord!! He asked me make posts on this, and answered my by thanking me. You should understand about hearing from Him. We can ask Him questions and get answers from Him, via...

"You cannot practice homosexuality and be Christian." Is a statement that is part of the OP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It happens to be an incorrect statement!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Since it is indeed part of the OP it is part of the topic in the OP!!!!!!!!!!! How is it you don't realize this???? As far as the...

Look closely at the above - see where it is written, "You cannot practice homosexuality and be Christian." That is incorrect!! You can be, simply because when the Lord comes into our live He starts working on us, but we are not the finished product!! In fact none of us are the finished...

All sin is an "affront to God". Homosexuality is therefore an affront to God. Yet that is not really what the OP is about! The above shows the real misconception. That Pharisee, we tend to call Saul, was a man of God, according to his own thinking at that time. So he was going to punish...

There are questions that comes up in Christianity concerning sanctification and justification. Another way to put it is: are we saved by our good works or because we are counted as righteous because of our faith????? I think a careful reading of the Bible reveals we are saved by faith - and...

Yes - This is a very important thing to understand. God is the creator, and as such all power and authority comes from Him. It is also something easily forgotten if we have gotten into pride. Satan got into pride and took a great fall. He started thinking that he could be like God and started...

Satan is not omni-present. He just has a big following. That is why Paul explained with battle with the powers, principalities, and dark forces of this world. So we do not specifically battle with Satan, but those spirits who have placed themselves under Satan. I guess it might certainly seem...

Jesus is the truth! And Jesus is the Word who was in the beginning with God and is God! So it is a bit confusing when you write He is the ideal of the truth? He is the truth - I don't understand why or for what reason 'the ideal of' is in the OP? Also I don't understand what you mean by "can you...
