I have had quite a lot of exposure to various charismatic/pentecostal/renewal movement in the UK and Australia. It is very difficult to classify them specifically in a determinate way because there is much diversity amongst them. I would not make such claims as they are not focussed on...

As I took the time to study the NTC in-depth and discussed it with all and sundry, many people were confused as to what I was talking about. For them, Christianity was all about Sunday morning meetings in a building and an occasional meeting during the week. In one church (Baptist) the minister...

I have been exposed to some aspects of catholicism. The worst when I was a teacher in their schools which in one case was ruled by an overbearing and dictatorial priest, who had no understanding of life outside of the catholic church, and the catholic charismatic renewal both in the UK and here...

I am totally convinced that religion is one of the biggest barriers to obtaining salvation. Salvation is faith in what God has done. Religion is faith in what we do.

The problem is we might get stage fright. But then I guess if we fright for the right to stage a night fight on the right of a stage fright we might end up flying a kite. I don't understand it either.

it is in a thing called the New Testament.

Thank you for your opinion. As always you are right and we are wrong.

As I read your post it came to me that the last thing you should do is take it personal. That is the sign of a mature Christian. I am not aligned with any denomination but some of the writings here demean my experience so what do I do. Smile and say to myself, let's hope one day they see the...

Thank you for those thoughts. When you say everything, what do you have in mind? What I have posted is no more than an introduction which I intend to build on, bearing in mind I have spent two years studying various facets of the New Testament Church (NTC) so I will build line upon line.

That is right Brakelite. Too many have a tendency to put God in little boxes in an attempt to control him to make sure he performs according to their beliefs and doctrine. Bu the fact is there is an unseen realm out there which we have not as yet even come close to and which God inhabits and...

It just shows that God who is spirit has feelings the same as us, but it seems much more intense, but that doesn't surprise me one little bit.

I always operate on the basis that if you don't know or recognise the bad you won't know what the good is. That means I am never afraid of the bad. I just run my spiritual antenna over it. If you want to know the truth you will be shown it.

Likewise. I was praying about abortion and God took me up into heaven. We hugged each other and he was crying so I asked him why and he said he had been waiting for this for a long time. When I came back down to earth I KNEW he was crazy about me.

You would? This is what it involves. NUMBER ONE. Acts 2. men and brethren what shall we do. Repent and be baptized for the forgiveness of sin and you shall receive the holy spirit. In other words, there is an entrance fee. It starts with repentance to deal with sin in your life. If you are an...

Diplomacy: Telling someone to go to hell so that they enjoy it.

Try Christian Forums. I get a bit confused. One of the blessings of old age. Well, that is my story and I am sticking to it.

Your God is too small brother. Tell me, how much praying, fasting, and faith did the woman who touched the hem of his garment have? How much knowledge of the word of God did she have?

I may be wrong but I don't think so but I am on another discussion board and they are quite different from this one. If you so much as say one word wrong they come down on you like a ton of bricks. Even colloquialisms are forbidden and you are certainly not allowed to tell the truth if the words...
