LIFT up thine heart unto God with a meek stirring of love; and mean Himself, and none of His goods. And thereto, be loath to think on anything but Himself. So that nothing work in thy wit, nor in thy will, but only Himself. Do that in thee and forget all the creatures that ever God made and the...

The professor says, What a curious intellectual exercise! Paradise awaits me and I am comfy-- I keep an afterlife coupon in a leaden tiara I wear upon my head-- But what of the others!! Let's jabber a spiel and guess Who knows Whom. -------- It's interesting how many posts on this forum are...

Yes. And to take it deeper.... Those who do not hope for universal reconciliation misunderstand their fundamental nature, the essence of their being. They have abandoned their first Love and need remember from where they have fallen (descended) those many ages ago. (Rev 2:4-5) Universal...

It ties in with: Know ye not that ye are the temple of God. The "place of God" is you. For most today, sitting on the throne in that temple, is a false self, ego persona. The man of sin. The son of perdition whose end is destruction, who misses the mark of oneness with the Father (as Father...

Sorry. I did an edit without realizing you had already replied. :(

Son of the Father, Yes, this is what man is taught to believe. And LOOK, I sin, alot, therefore, yes, I must have a sinful nature!! Are you not a son of God? Or is that just a nametag one wears? Hello, I'm an accountant, a Republican, a Baptist and oh, btw, I'm a son of God too! The good...

Hi Enoch: You have heard it said, that in the Father we live and move and have our being? (Acts 17:28) If we have our being in Him, that is The Reality and all else is persistent illusion. And what is "being" if it not be a "nature"? Have you not heard that you are a son of God? Is not the...

With forehead representing the place of the mind, this speaks, on one level, of the mind of Christ in you, here and now. His name shall be on, in, or upon their foreheads (depending on which translation you use). You have heard it said, name = nature? So, name in their foreheads is: His...

Hello. I understand. I'll get right to it. So That is me. No, it's not. That is what YOU are experiencing. You are experiencing boredom, depression, fatigue, fear, worry, etc. You are not that. All that stuff and the 1000 other things left unsaid in your title are the Old Man of Sin...

I hold my peace. Nevertheless, I say unto you, one day you might see Christ sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of your consciousness.

It's a landmark day if a religionist ever realizes what Satan actually is. (edit: had a bigger post written, but, meh... I'll just leave that one line here) Carry on. B)

Yes, I know that is what you believe. I was there believing the same things a decade ago. But, that thing that the exoteric religionist is trying to discipline is that thing that need be crucified and die. Since before the Pharisees, religion's quest has been to reform, discipline, control...

This mental conclusion is self-imposed bondage. It is a limiting belief that prevents one from seeing what's outside of it's parameters. And when one has 100's of these conclusions in their head, they are in a self-imposed darkness, blind and deaf to the Reality outside the mental prison of...

Yes, it was a fine line to walk. To speak on scoffing and mocking without scoffing and mocking any who may have initiated the need to bring up scoffing and mocking in the first place. Phew. :D If I fell short, I ask for grace and peace. To clarify, I speak generally when I refer to those...

Hello select: Isn't it funny to be treated such in a Christian forum? You've been here all of two days and have attracted the long knives to yourself, like filings to a magnet. Selah. 2Pet 3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts...
