Hi @farouk, She keeps it well hidden, so I have not seen it for a very long time. ;)

'If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.' (1 John...

'Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions.' (Ecclesiastes 7:29) Dear @Mayflower, My heart goes out to you. I empathise with you regarding these things. For into my mind very often comes the silence of God at Babel in Genesis 5...

Yes, @farouk, That 'pause' is for us to stop and consider what is being said to us in the verses highlighted by the use of the word, 'Selah'. Praise God! In Christ Jesus Chris

Hello @soul man, Christ being 'among' the Gentiles was a new concept. During the Acts period Gentiles were grafted into the Olive Tree of Israel, for salvation was of the Jew (John 4:22), and they had prior place. However, with the laying aside of Israel (temporarily) at the end of the Acts...

'But we preach Christ crucified, .. unto the Jews a stumblingblock, .... and unto the Greeks foolishness; ...... But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, ........ Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; .. and the...

(A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son) (1) LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me. (2) Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah. (3) But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up...

Hello there, When I was in my teens and terribly self-conscious and shy, I was asked to choose and read aloud a psalm at the beginning of a practice session for the, 'Youth For Christ,' choir that I was part of. I chose one which was quite long, and had the word, 'Selah', 'seemingly' between...

Hello there, In Colossians 1:27: (quoted above - #55), the words, 'Christ in you,' is, 'Christ among you,' ('en' with the plural = among). That being the case: in this context, it is a corporate application and not personal, isn't it? Salvation had been sent to the Gentile (ie., the nations -...

'Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, .. and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ .... in my flesh for his body's sake, ...... which is the church: ........ Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God .. which is given to me for you, .... to...

'I am crucified with Christ: .. nevertheless I live; .... yet not I, ...... but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live .. in the flesh .... I live by the faith of the Son of God, ...... Who loved me, ........ and gave Himself for me.' (Galatians 2:20) Praise God!

Today was the highest temperature ever recorded in Britain in the month of February. Chris

Hello there, @Dave L. That is not a 'doctrine' it is a fact. Greater knowledge should not alter the basic knowledge that we are brothers and sisters in Christ, and prevent us from loving one another. In Christ Jesus Chris

Hi there, @Jane_Doe22 , I understand what you are saying. I wish we would concentrate on the person and work of Christ, by which we were saved, individually: and forget the corporate doctrinal stances which divide us. For there are no divisions in Christ Jesus, we are all ONE in Him. I don't...

'Then saith He to Thomas, .. "Reach hither thy finger, .... and behold My hands; ...... and reach hither thy hand, ........ and thrust it into My side: .......... and be not faithless, but believing." And Thomas answered and said unto Him, .. "My Lord and my God." Jesus saith unto Him, ...

'Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived. But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; ... ' (2...

Hello there, Here in the UK, we have been keeping an eye on the weather you are all experiencing in the USA. You have certainly been experiencing severe extremes of late, haven't you? The weather here in Wales over the past few days has been very mild for the time of year, which makes me...

Hello @bbyrd009, The Lord's bodily presence was no longer with them, for He had ascended up into Heaven, to God's right hand. He was absent from them in that sense, though present with them in 'spirit'. Does that help? In Christ Jesus Chris

Hello again, @bbyrd009, I did not realise that you had made three replies to me, I will address the points you have referred to, but want to ensure that we are on the same track, by confirming the following points you have raised:- - The kingdom of heaven is within you - Luke 17:21 - No one...
