Yes, but not just for a select few. Free choice does not affect God's sovereignty. Do you think it a work of the flesh to accept His awesome gift? He said He would draw ALL men unto Him, of course we know that most love their sin more than God so...many "choose" the wide path to their...

Trust and faith first, then Seems most unbelievers think they have to clean themselves up before coming to Christ and, it is just the opposite. He is bigger than our sin and really does "meet u right where we are at".

And what of these, and these are only a few: 21 " And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." Of course, John 3:16 "16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life."...

As far as healing in general goes, I believe that He is responsible for ALL healing, whether it be from doctors or divine intervention. Not all are healed! Look at Timothy, Paul said to take a little wine for his frequent stomach ailments instead of water...why didn't he just heal him...

Hi brother, I am not a "Reformed" anything and DO believe in free choice, but the Calvinists actually believe God chose some and not others "arbitrarily", not by anything they did or not do as it was was from " from the foundations of the world". To myself and others I know, it is a doctrine of...

"We are exhorted to overcome the "flesh", but where is it promised that we have the power to make it just "go away" Hi brother, This is the question of the centuries!! Cannot see that our old "nature" or inclinations just, poof, disappear. There are things that will be with us still, for the...

The Holy Spirit shines a very bright light on our sin...sin we never realized as "sin".

Yes, some trust Him for their salvation yet, not for their needs on this earth. I pray that everyone on this site who falls into this category will learn to trust Him no matter what is befalling them. It's easy to say, but it is true. Man, don't we put ourselves through so much unnecessary...

Oh wow. Yes, I live in Buffalo NY, South Buffalo. We have the Seneca's in the area. I spent 4 years in Rapid City S.D. and, they ply their American natives with alcohol and poverty, it is shameful, IMO. The reservations here are poor but, the "chiefs" of the Seneca Nation run ALL the...

Ahahaha!! Are you talking about Teresa of Avilla? Must say, have asked the same of Him :oops:

Thanks my brother. Would it be that I could be even MORE caring, for sure! :) That family has grabbed my heart.

Brother MyDreams is most likely fast asleep now, hopefully! Salome has been coughing for weeks, had loose stool, vomiting and the fever. The doctor (a different one) gave different meds today so, we are praying the fever will break in the morning. Hoping they are good antibiotics and if it is...

Truth. Old habits die hard...and the longer we lived in them, the longer (IMHO) it will take to break through. I understand the concept here and it is a goal to be reached for certain, emptying ourselves completely. When my "issue" comes up daily, yes have tossed a few fits and crying like a...

I see them as your personal opportunities to trust Him, and to do as He did..."Father forgive them..." open their spiritual eyes, bless them... When I ask for opportunities to grow my faith, takes a bit to recognize certain trials AS opportunities! Fail in some and victorious is others. I'm...

I must ask Stunned, When you stopped trying to kill the flesh, what did you do? Just continue to murder until you just decided to stop? How did things change for you? "In his kindness God called you to share in his eternal glory by means of Christ Jesus. So after you have suffered a little...

Sugar is NOT our friend! But, it still wants to be my friend so, don't want to be rude! Lol...for real though, you are so right Barny, sugar wreaks havoc on our bodies and minds..

Aw yeah He does, soon as lifting our hands to Heaven with praises on our lips, Satan flees! our own spirits lift, things become clearer, it is awesome powerful. :)

Oh. NO sweet brother, you have zero need to think this! We do need to hear it over and over, I THANK you for the input, for sure! As well as your concern to even bother to reply :) I am sorry you felt you shared too much scripture with me, they were perfect verses and they were and are always...

Um, thanks :)

The enemy knows that you FULLY have your heart set on trusting Jesus with ALL things, and that you have been, for years now giving out bibles and rice and what ever you can to those around you brother. Satan HATES such faith and dedication to our Savior. You WILL overcome bro., as your faith...
