Agreed. I meant that He will use a bad thing to the good...not that He necessarily sent this virus into the population. Of course, then we could look at the first four horsemen of the 7 from Rev. I wonder if all the pandemics the human race has gone through over the centuries can be connected...

Yes there are many "ifs"...if we do this, God will do that, if we do NOT do this, God will NOT do that. Just knowing the conditions are always for our own (and God's) good, somehow makes it easier to obey Him :)

Amen Pat...His promises should be playing a huge part in our thanksgiving, yes? His promises are solid and even if He does not deliver, we shall still trust Him! He has not let me down yet. I would just like to have strong faith to rise above all that is happening in the world right now and...

Hey John, Would you look at this virus as the left hand of God?

Yes, you do have a point here concerning "the soul is defined as the union of the body with the spirit." As, the body did not become a living soul until God breathed into his nostrils. 7 "And Jehovah God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life...

Consider yourself prayed for my friend. :)

Lovely prayer @hldude33, thank you. Yes, we are human and yes, we do at times allow anxiety and fear cripple us, especially if it involves our closest and dearest. We are allowed to have a healthy fear so as to be more conscientious and take more precaution to keep ourselves healthy. We don't...

Right before Jesus took His last breath, did He not say "Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.". Did He lie about that? I'm sorry, but I'm not totally up on all of this resurrection stuff. In my mind, the soul is different from the body as I always believed that we are a soul, so...

The spirit always goes back to God.

Hi Base, Ah yes, the "leaves for the healing" He also wipes away every tear..."...for the old order of things has passed away.” Could it be that maybe this is just where He gives us "new bodies"? We come broken and bruised and He restores us? "Why would the Saved need to eat 'Healing Fruit'...

I was speaking not only of those who have passed away without Christ, but of believers too. Also was talking about physical death...I know there are the walking dead passing us every day (those not in Christ). "I am of the opinion that the phrase 'Know Nothing' in Scripture has to do with the...

As I've heard said - "We (Christians) have a new DNA now and God uses a blood economy..." :)

Too many scriptures pertaining to the fact that the dead know nothing while they are in the grave. And the times Jesus would say things like, about Lazarus "He is sleeping"...and others. So no, I do not believe in it.

"...that the house church movement will return in great strength in the future, and this may indeed be what sparks it." I sure hope this will be the case!

It's called "chemistry" lol. :D

:D

Tru dat! The Son will know the moment God speaks it. And, even if we can know the "season" but not the day, what would it matter or change? Are we not to be ready regardless??? Is it to NOT take "us" by surprise?

Ha! Makes me wonder, was there any other Prophet other than John The Baptist who did have a "good" report? They weren't invited to any back yard barbecues I bet :D I will say that they were to be feared! Not adored and honored like they are today, giving people words that did NOT come from...

"Any gardener knows the meaning of this term. But a fool says "God loves me, He does not see my sin" Dead on the vine...chop chop :D The "Church" has become lulled into sleep - by "leaders" giving their sheep no real meat and always the milk, over and over again when they should be already...

It is a lack of faith, yes...but, if we have zero control over something, wouldn't we rather put these things (worries, fretting, being anxious) in His hands anyway?? He is faithful...even when we are not. He said to be anxious for NOTHING. Our faith can move mountains :)
