More about the base, I am reading the book The Normal Christian Life by Watchman Nee once again. The last time I did was in the late 70's when I was a babe in Christ. Finished reading the first chapter, the man is good and thorough! What impressed me most - What then of our attitude to Satan...

And so was my experience. Total love, no words to describe. And hours after that the realization God is holy. It instantly changed me into a believer in search what just happened to me. Indeed, it was (and still is) the core of my faith, God is love in the first place, His essence.

Do you mean the KJV and YLT have it wrong ?

2Tim 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. You are not rightly dividing the word of truth. You have just one issue.

Agree. And as such many translations have changed 1 John 3:9 1 John 3:9 Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God. [KJV and YLT] into - 1Joh 3:9 No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God's seed...

I repeat my post #1201 Filipp 2:12 Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, 1Petr 4:18 And “If the righteous is scarcely saved, what will become of the ungodly and the...

But of course, the indwelling Holy Spirit can not sin. Exactly, while walking in the light, in case we sin [1 John 1:8-10], we confess, we are forgiven by the blood of Christ and we continue our walk in the light.

According to Paul there is. 1Cor 12:28 And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, helping, administrating, and various kinds of tongues. 1Cor 12:29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work...

That is certainly a better explanation :gd

I have no answer to your question. But when did the early church started? With Jesus ascension ? or with Pentecost? I think the latter. Only a few OT Jews (under the Law) were blessed with the Holy Spirit. Then on Pentecost day Peter in his speech quotes from an old OT prophecy : Joel...

Luke 1:41 And when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the baby leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit, Luke 1:67 And his father Zechariah [of JTB] was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied, saying,

Let's have a day (just one day) giving our differences a rest and praise the Lord instead, let's give God glory. I will begin : . Praise the Lord He created us, given us life. . Praise the Lord He foreknew A&E would fall and yet He created them after all. . Praise the Lord for His great...

Good morning Epi, had a good night rest ?

I would not put it that way, King David said - Cast me not away from your presence, and take not your Holy Spirit from me. [Ps 51:11]. The prophets spoke by the Holy Spirit, some of the common OT people also. It's why Peter is so excited on Pentecost day because he understood the Holy Spirit was...

Taken from Guyon claimed that she went through a series of spiritual states by means of her ascetically driven mystical experiences. These are the same type of states that Catholic mystics have always promoted. The first, which she called “union of the powers,” lasted eight years. During this...

What a terrible story, I feel for you.

Thanks for sharing, brings back memories of my own failure which put my faith in a dry desert for decades because I could not figure it out. A considerable part of my Christian life I resided in the Charismatic Movement and it is pretty common over there people speaking in the name of the Lord...

Dear sister, you have a serious illness, mood swings and you can't help, the Lord knows, He loves you and does not judge you on things you don't have control. Warm yourself in the faith you belong to Him, that you are bought with a price, in those hours of despair trust Him. Matt 11:28 Come...

You can ask Christ Himself.
