Oh dear, I had @Wrangler pegged as a Catholic. Not a good sign.... NAR must have gotten worse since it started out....hardness of heart and nominal....and stopped up ears. That's what happens with leaven, it grows and bears evil fruit, grieving the Holy Spirit until He departs. Scripture is...

Well as you know we have a strong point of contention there. Imputed righteousness is not a doctrine that says we are innately righteous in our own right - the bible teaches otherwise and the more we grow the more we realize the truth of this. But it is only that God is choosing to accept our...

They are both well known in evangelical and Pentecostal circles where I live, or used to be back when I was attending churches many years ago. Frances Frangipane as well. Oswald Chambers....My Utmost for His Highest....small daily devotional book of what I would call penetrating writings...

I want to get hold of her autobiography so I can read in her own words what she believed and taught. When I started to look into her, reading what some others had to say, I also caught a scent of new age and a sense of mixture. But I know too that people will often automatically reject and can...

That sound encouraging in her favour.......why couldn't you just say so when I asked? I will of course try to verify. That is your own wrong assumption sister. All I did was ask a question about something that didn't make sense to me and instead of answering my inquiry you responded by...

Amen. Any spirit that requires unquestioning conformity and tries to bludgeon or subtly intimidate people into conforming....is not of God. It is of the world and flesh and devil. (It is that exact same spirit of political correctness we have seen taking over society in recent decades.) For...

I assumed you and Episkopos have read her book and could answer that one question I have to begin with......... but instead of simply answering it, you chose to take up two posts to scold me for asking it. I'm not claiming to be one with God (in the same sense that she apparently claimed to...

Thank you for coming back and responding to my post, but it doesn't answer my question at all. How could someone who is one with God still be under a deception? That doesn't make sense to me.

I'd say there is no better or higher witness than the witness and example Jesus gave us....in being wiped off from the face of the earth, as you put it, for His faith and obedience to the Father. He did not tell the church to take up carnal weapons, on the contrary we are told our weapons are...

His reign is spiritual/heavenly............and I believe we are in it now.....the time of longsuffering before He comes that we are to account as salvation (2Peter 3). It is seen and entered into by faith, not by sight. Jesus said to the Jews who were expecting an earthly messianic reign, that...

We need to discern/distinguish/divide and separate between church and government. Islam is a form of theocracy.....how is that working out? The Catholic religion likewise loves to wield political power over governments and persecute true believers bringing the true gospel when it can get away...

Following the Lord (cloud and pillar of fire) is rebellion...?....On the contrary, that is obedience. Jesus Himself was driven by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted..........He is our forerunner and we all undergo the proving of our faith in this life. That is the wilderness...

I believe we follow the same pattern as our "ensample" Israel......after saving them out of Egypt and parting the Red Sea for them, it was the Lord leading them through the wilderness to cross the Jordan into the Land of Promise and rest......scripture calls them "the church in the wilderness"...

Only until the end of this world. The Word made flesh.......speaks to us in parables. Even His feet touching the mount of Olives is a parable that was looking forward to the gospel and the crucifixion/resurrection....Gethsemane, on the mount of Olive, the breaking of Jesus's body and the veil...

God created the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil and declared it to be "good" with all of material creation. (And bear in mind that good is not perfect/holy, ie, it is not OF Him.) And we are commanded not to eat of its fruits lest we DIE. In other words, leave it alone if you know what's...

We do battle, but our weapons are not carnal, that's the difference....our battle is spiritual, not carnal. We are not God, we are only His servants and the only command and commission He gave His church is to go and make disciples. The world is His business to deal with, not ours. Why are...

This is more proof that this world is very evil and ripe for judgment, because it is ruled by evil people under the sway of the god and prince of this world, Satan. And those who partake of this world's ways will also be judged with the world. Jesus said if you live by the sword you will die...

There are many anti-christs. Is he sitting in your temple, in your heart, where he doesn't belong...? Where only Christ belongs? If so, that is not his fault but yours alone. Nevertheless I believe there will be a final antichrist that the church as a whole will be deceived by as well as...

Thank you Laurina, I will look into her.

I'm just at a loss for words for what is happening these days brother. If not for the Lord even the very elect would be deceived. I'm very sad for many.
