Yeah, kind of like Bbyrrd :D - and he's been low key for awhile.

We should do a comparison of time with eternity...

Very thought provoking Scott.

Ahaha...I was just about to reply with the exact thing!

The more I search it, the more I find that mans doctrines are horribly flawed. Could be compared to politics too...it's when someone just wants to "be right", they stay only to their original "belief", never being moved to look at ALL the other options. Silly really, can never learn or grow...

I think God gave us an immune system already...and who can beat that one! I agree Enoch. They (govt's.) don't love or even like us small folk, but still the regular Joes and Janes trust them. And, in this day and age that is crazy IMO, "TRUST NO MAN"! They know how to dupe the masses out...

Even after reading Revelation, Daniel, Ezekiel, Isaiah...you can still get differing messages. So much in the timing of all the things written. I know some believe we are already in the thousand year reign :confused: um, cannot imagine Jesus ruling over this world with so much sin going on...

1" Thessalonians 4:15, NIV: "According to the Lord's word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep." ...and they didn't. The saints who already passed on WERE first to be risen. As far as there...

The after effects of actually seeing how you REALLY are inside, once repenting and realizing what needs changing or gotten rid of , I can understand being joyful. Reason being it seems a sure sign that the Holy Spirit is working inside us, lighting up all the dark corners of your soul that...

Have not really looked at it this way before...hmm. It brings me low...as in humility because He shows how I was riding on a horse I could barely mount it was so high....so yeah, ouch to see how horrid I was and didn't even know it. God knocked me off the saddle and put me in my place...

Okay, maybe not "hurt", more like being ashamed and sorrowful, the realization ofhow we can be so blind to ourselves. This all has to do what you and I had spoken about a little bit back. And you are correct about being controlled by our emotions as, the more we feed them the larger they grow...

If it was God, maybe He meant to "be fervent" in your supplications...but then, the "get upset" part sure does not sound quite right... Don't let her fool you Fluff. I know Stunned and, she can be a meanie :D;)

I still think He meant greater in "scope" not quality. Nothing to back that, just seems right to me.

Amazing the things He reveals...it hurts, for sure. Hard to recognize in ourselves but oh too easy to see in others. I imagine it could be compared to how Peter might have felt after denying Christ 3 times, when he swore that could never happen. It can be overwhelming to know how we have...

I am laughing inside... :rolleyes: :D

Ahaha...oh Wynona, you are too kind. "Lovely" isn't something I would describe myself as :D...but you are so sweet to say!

Eschatology, false teaching warnings, SO MUCH. I've never heard a true sermon at a CC. I grew up Catholic, 1st communion, confirmation, "religious" instructions. I learned not a thing UNTIL I opened The Word Of God and attended bible studies. I once asked a member here, who lives in Italy...

Yes brother, my brother and I are well aware of that. We do NOT sit under false teaching, ever.

Good post Stunned, I remember this particular struggle of yours, I had at one point thought that you actually DID lost the shop. I guess God had other plans :) I'm the opposite, I trust in His provisions implicitly...it's the SPIRITUAL that eludes me much of the time, the soul does not always...

I did not say that ALL of the apostles had written the NT. Calvin and Luther are just both "isms" and mean nothing to me. If the bible pans out after comparing the verses then...it is NOT that hard to understand the simple Gospel, we are told to FEED upon it as man does NOT love by bread...
