    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    I'm afraid I can't keep up with every comment or point. But regarding this I would like to say........this is for Israel FIRST, then the Gentiles. The same truth, the same gospel, is to the Jew FIRST, then the Gentile. As well as tribulation was to the Jew first, then the Gentile/world (Rom...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    I'm thinking in terms that the Lord clothed man with what man chose to be clothed with essentially....the consequences of hearkening to the serpent. God foreknew it would happen though, and has woven it all into His ultimate purposes which are higher than ours. I wonder if the two sides might...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    He does it alright, when we come to faith apart from works. It is a free gift. As the scriptures do say. Jesus is holy and He is our covering......that we His children might be called holy. But it doesn't end there, that is the just the beginning, we have a race to run, a price to pay, the...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    You deny such things as imputed righteousness, things that are foundational to the faith. Those things are not false doctrine, but they also need to be seen in light of the warnings of scripture. ( and just to let you know I added another paragraph to my post in case you didn't see it.)

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    Churches today are full of false doctrines I agree. The Truth is often a two sided coin in certain ways, we might say. The modern church is overemphasizing one side of the coin while denying or ignoring the other side. But that is what you seem to be doing as well, except that it is the other...

    Goshens, Hiding Place - Colossians 3:3

    Your dream reminds me of "the name of the Lord is a strong tower, the righteous run into it and they are safe" (Prov 18). Sounds like we will be entering the days of doing "exploits" doesn't it. I think maybe the main reason we don't see as many miracles in the west as in impoverished...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    The earnest of the Spirit is the seal/guarantee of the redemption of our bodies, ie, the promise of eternal life. See the context here: 2Co 5:1-8 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    The Lord led me to come out of "Babylon" more than 25 years ago. And the doctrine I believe, directly from scripture, not from pulpits, does not defend or justify the flesh. Concerning that Is. 26 verse, those who have (genuine) faith in Jesus are not counted among the "wicked" (unless any...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    JESUS is our covering first and foremost...??? He it is who makes us holy. His Spirit within sanctifies the vessel/temple. Christ in us the HOPE of glory. But I agree there is an aspect of being under the covering of other authorities as well, if the person happens to have any spiritual...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    Your own testimony bears me out on this Epi. Are you not holy since you are not walking in the Spirit right now? Were you not holy in between those two experiences you had? You said yourself you still needed to learn and grow more or words to that effect, to be able to remain in that "higher...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    Not to mention it harms the one being insulted and maligned.....? And more than that it brings the gospel into disrepute....? I seem to be seeing that self is the focus here......hyper-vigilant self-policing and don't harm your "self"........is that what the gospel and holiness is all about...

    As usual you are evading the point for some reason, Epi, while mischaracterizing the one you are responding to. This is a pattern with you.

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    Sister, rest assured I don't think God is concerned one bit about whether anyone knows how to turn on cookies or not. ( I dont' even understand what they are or how they work!) But He does care about the truth and He cares about souls. His attitude in His word towards the truth is not careless...

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    Brother I happened to come across a false prophetess on You-tube yesterday.....she was predicting that believers and unbelievers would unite to somehow usher in a great move of God or words to that effect. So many Christians were supporting her video. I left a comment reminding them of the...

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    "All the world's a stage..." as Shakespeare wrote. Illusion. And meanwhile there is also a lot more going on backstage that the audience can't see. Well, there are practical things do need attending to, as best as fallen man can try to do at least. As long as we don't mistake those practical...

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    Have faith and hope in a temporal world that is disintegrating and appointed to wrath? No thanks sister. We are to have our faith, hope, affections and eyes above, not here below. No place on earth is exempt, sadly. The nation called America is no more exempt than those nations we consider...

    The taken and the left

    The way that whole passage is written makes me wonder if it is referring to the old man/new man, because the examples Jesus gave were always two of the same gender together...at His coming one will be taken and the other left. I don't know which is which though.

    The taken and the left

    I believe earth and land are allegorical for the temple of the body/soul.....our earthen vessel.....so that inheriting the earth/land is a veiled reference to inheriting eternal life.

    I truly don't know what agitation or upset you are talking about. But I appreciate you sharing your testimony. The way I understand this, it is a kind of paradox, sister. And the truth in heaven trumps facts on the ground. I think it is our desire to be pleasing to the Lord that motivates...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    No I'm not at all upset. I suppose you thought you were hearing from the Holy Spirit. I don't believe at all that I am perfect and lacking nothing in my life and heart and walk. Still have things to overcome and I only know it because the Lord is faithful and gracious to shine His light for...
