Yes, I do that too Pat, and let me say that there have been lots of negative thoughts flitting through my mind for months now so, there has been lot's of repentance. Yes indeed, short accounts are crucial in our faith. Dangerous ground when/if we do not immediately repent of sin...the longer...

Hello Lifelongsinner, Just a question about evangelizing. Would/could you say to an unsaved person that you are evangelizing that "God loves you"?

Yes! That is the first thing I do, thank Him for His forgiveness and mercies that are new each day :) ...unless the reason I am approaching Him in the first place is solely for asking forgiveness. And I agree, focusing on our sin is not healthy, Satan uses it against us, even after repenting...

You too Angelina, Hope all is good by you, that you are healthy and well in all ways sister! xo

Thank you Dosia, Happy New year and God bless you too! Yes, good thing we have the phones, lol. Thanks for contributing to the thread :)

:D Probably by @stunnedbygrace initially....Bahahahaha! She has these issues, be kind.

"It wasn't until the captivities the Hebrews experienced in foreign lands and the influences they were subjected to that the idea of another factor ie, demons and devils was introduced." Can you expound on who first introduced demons and devils to the Hebrews, in scripture? "Finally, your...

"God is so good." Inexplicably so! Our minds cannot fathom the depths of His goodness, we could never come near it. ❤ I have found that prayer is very much like the sanctification process." It would be good to hear your thoughts/beliefs on this (sanctification) as, it also has so many...

Wasn't actually saying the river you are speaking of is the Euphrates, just an illustration showing they can dry up. I actually think the Euphrates will have much to do with Armageddon, have a vague memory of a teaching a long time ago in a bible study talking about this...and that was when...

Being raised Catholic, we were taught that we would "go to heaven and become an angel" (not gonna happen, we will "be like" the angels...full spirit?? hmm) IF..we were a "good person" and went to confession every Saturday and took communion as often as you could, even everyday! And also that...

Yes, God blocked them from re entering and eating of the TOL, so they would not live forever in that fallen state. Sorry @marks Don't know what made me think this was Wranglers thread...maybe because he wrote about everyone de-railing "the" thread.

Yes bro, thank you, and agreed. We can do not a thing without or apart from Him. I was not sure where you were coming from for a minute, I did not think you believed that Christ only died for a select few...which actually, is what it will turn out to be when all is said and done. In Him always!

Hi Chris! I trust you had nice holidays, aren't you glad they are over?? "I find prayer difficult when I sit down with that intention, so stilted and unnatural. " YES! This is why I won't make a "specific" time of day or night to intentionally pray, even though we are told to pray for all men...

Makes ya nuts, doesn't it. SOOOO many "opinions" so many things that "sound" right, even when comparing to the word. We really have to know the word well and trust that God will only reveal "truth" to us and that we will have the discernment to detect wrong teaching...no matter HOW humbly it...

Yes, that is a good point and one I have thought of before. Are there any verses stating that men receive eternal life "through the Holy Spirits" breath? When God breathed into Adams nostrils, the breath of life and he then became a living soul, yeah, it seems that the first man could have...

Hi Q.T. And to keeping with the thread :oops:, Yeah, I would love to bash any church that has faulty teaching as they are just leading the ignorant over a cliff. :) Which idioms are you speaking of. Eternal? Death? Torture? All of them are great deterrent's to sin, btw. :eek: To our...

Haha...u 2 funny :)

Yes, the fire is eternal and the worm never dies. Don't recall saying men are born eternal...? I used to argue that the FIRE and THE WORM would be forever but could go no further as I got stopped up at every turn, so I just let this go for the time being. Now, my interest is re-piqued. No...

"What could possibly go wrong? <----Thanks, needed the laugh! :D

Lol, you're on a roll :D Would be comforting to know that unbelievers will not be tormented for eternity, it's just all those other pesky verses that have me so confused like all the ones Jesus talked about, concerning the fate of the goats and such. And the Epistles. Tough to reconcile them...
