Brutal. Looks like that just came to an end. Sorry to see that happen. :(

Good question! A person will find this general teaching in most "church's" throughout the world. It could the Church of Christ, Baptists, Pentecostal . . . etc. It really doesn't matter. And I say that it doesn't really matter because if you go to any Church, you'll find that even retired...

I would never agree with your Illumination on this matter, so I will just have to walk away from this discussion. Have a good T-Day!

I'm no expert, but isn't adelphos (Greek) a masculine noun? From ἄλφα (G1) (as a connective particle) and delphus (the womb)

?

I was raised in a false christian faith where we believed that we could get utterly wasted, to the point of not being able to speak, and spend hundreds of dollars per night in strip clubs . . . and all the while be "safe and secure within the arms of Jesus." I thought that because I felt that I...

This is beautifully written. You know, you just described my former life, just as Paul described his former life in Romans 7. In fact, I would suggest that you have just described nearly every "christian" I have ever met. Having been Indwelt by the Spirit in a most Powerful and Almighty Way, no...

Beautiful . . . just beautiful! I love all that you wrote.

That seems reasonable to me. As for me, I must admit that my previous experiences have helped to shape me as one that is more self-controlled and careful with my "tongue." Before I joined this site, I knew that I had to take a step back and, in fact, learn to not even defend myself, but to...

BTW: I hope that what we're doing isn't considered gossip. I don't feel that we are in error as we discuss our experiences, but if we are, please forgive us, Lord!

God's Love runs deep in the Hearts of those whom He has chosen to wake up. I love hearing about how you feel about your pups. And to you, too . . . WaterSong . . . I can sense your loss in your words. You have been blessed by God, no doubt, to experience this kind of Love, for True Love will...

That's a very cool short-story. And even though it's been 8 years, I know that the loss is still with you. I like that you have such deep feelings in your heart, even for a dog. I wouldn't be surprised if you were to tell me that you felt that your spirit had melded with Buck's, much like David...

Wow, dude. That is just unbelievable! I can't even imagine how that must have felt. I think I only made it for about a couple of months before they gave my IP address the Eternal Boot. As mentioned above, I was bothered (but also Spiritually proud in a balanced kind of way) that the members...

Well . . . I only said what I said, not because I recognize that person being here, but because if the "owner" was so paranoid that he had to posit himself as another person with a different account, that "owner" could be here, expressing that same paranoia. Wouldn't that be weird? That the...

I like what Paul taught in the Core Passages of the entire Bible . . . Colossians 2:15 NLT - "In this way, he disarmed the spiritual rulers and authorities. He shamed them publicly by his victory over them on the cross." This Holy Victory comes to anyone who receives the Circumcision of Christ.

Powerful, Almighty God . . . We ask that you would grant this body of partakers, at this Forum, the Grace and Compassion for each other, that you would desire for us all. Powerful God, take our Hearts and remove all Stony elements so that we might Love each other just as your Spirit Enables, as...

I really hate to say this, but this made me howl out loud. ;) That said, we should pray for them, and as much as possible, when we think of them (and all others, really), we should speak to ourselves within our minds that we love them. As we speak to others physically, while in our minds we say...

Once I realized that Paul was not speaking from the Mind Of Christ (for Christ would never think as did Paul ((describing his former life before Holy Transformation)), that was one of my "clarion calls" for waking up to the Scriptures and the Lord's Mysterious Plan. I always used to read Romans...

You just blew me away. And you know, it was quite shocking to see this "owner" of the site speak to me just as disparagingly as the simple "member" like you and me. But now having read what you've just written, I see that that very same "owner" could be here . . . taking part in our discussions...

Wow. I'm not surprised, but wait . . . I am! So sorry to hear that you were treated unfairly. I was discouraged for a while, but we cannot allow those who possess the Mind of the Devil to ever discourage us. :)
