Satan was a created as an angel, angels are spirits. So is God a Spirit and He sure is quite the entity!! Makes me think of the 3rd of the angels cast out of heaven along with Satan and them being the demon spirits...jmo :)

That's horrible but, I expect nothing less from this world bro. And yes, that pastor is now with The Lord. Things are culmination very fast. China has been getting real bad with Christians, one day here too we will see that. Stand firm, focus, build the faith and keep on truckin!

Hi Saintiaint, I think this is why it's spoken of as a "personal relationship". We all have different situations, myriad! But, when we have true faith, pray with fervency...THAT is when we see Him work. At least, that is my own experience. We have a God of the "impossible". Just be sure to...

Really good post 101, You hit on allot and, it just plain makes sense!

Beautiful thoughts Pat, "I believe that there are many Christians like that; they have seen the light and enjoy the warmth of God’s love and are quite happily sitting on their perches singing inside the cages they have built, or have allowed others to build, around them. We all have the...

They sure do take their time! Yes Mel, praying.

So, you are no different than Christ. And, if so...are you healing people and emptying hospitals? Causing the blind to see? The lame to walk? Never a nasty thought, judgmental, critical? Unkind? Do you ALWAYS love others? Also, you did not address one single verse I quoted...you just come...

DITTO!

Amen Pat! Not to mention sins of omission...

Agreed April. Why does the word tell us to "confess our sins one to another"? and why 1 John 1: 9? "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1Jn 2:12–14,19; 3:1; 5:13 make it clear that 1 John was written to...

Dontcha just LOVE how He answers prayers? :) We need each other! God bless bro

Hello Ms. Hepburn! Beauty in simplicity! :) When I do not quite "get" something in The Word, I put it on a shelf and just come back to it later. I've also stopped asking God "why" too...not my business! His ways are perfect, we don't always need to know the why, TG! Glad your back sister!

Ha! Same here Marks. I have gotten into the habit of saying, thank you Lord that you have forgiven me, I am so sorry I grieved your Spirit. Then repent and STOP :)

God is good. Happy for you!

Agreed. Sounds like a lot of "inner self" kind of stuff. Focus not on God but self. And, yeah...very selfish and sounds dangerous :eek:

Not just you bro, I'd like to bury that old man so deep it comes out the other end of the earth and get's lost in space, forever! Don't see how that was considered "bragging"! Aren't we supposed to share what He does for us? And YES, He always makes a way out for us...if we reach out to Him...

Hi John, Yes, I know it was just a definition and you did not write it. "Self surrender" kind of stopped me in my tracks but then I saw it as surrendering to God but, now I'm not so sure...

Hi Pat, Loving ones self is not an easy thing for so many. Yes, we need to believe what He say's about us ❤

Hi John, "belief that union with or absorption into the Deity or the absolute, or the spiritual apprehension of knowledge inaccessible to the intellect, may be attained through contemplation and self-surrender." Not knowing anything about "Christian" Mysticism it seems as though the above...

Hi Erwin, I did start reading some of your book. It is awesome! I will check the rest out after replying or reading some posts. Good job bro.
