Being born again of the Spirit is a gift of initial grace. It is a beginning not an end. It is only a sample of God's grace. If we wish to have the full measure of grace then we will need to give all we have and are to the Lord. Our offering must be accepted for the baptism in the Spirit to take...

Here Jesus is giving us some insight into the Holy Spirit and how that connects the Father and Son...and how we can enter into that same Spirit with them. The One Spirit is eternal. When we enter into Christ, we enter into the eternal fellowship of the Father and the Son. There is a divine...

You are parroting the Bible but without understanding. In what capacity was Jesus with the Father...was He a PR man? or...as it says in the bible that Jesus was the Creator and without Him nothing was created. But you will not be able to take your mind and heart that far from its pre-conceived...

Real grace and faith bring real power. Men have reduced grace and faith to a religious formula that has no power. Both grace and faith are of the eternal kind if they save you. We are saved away from the flesh and into eternal life and reality by grace through faith. But many will claim the...

God created evil by giving both orders of creation (angels and men) free will and then having them interact with each other. It is in the interaction that we get temptations of a higher order...hence evil.

The Logos is the word YHVH...The Lord God of Israel. The Father is the Most High (Elyon) or the singular Yah. Elohim is plural (dual)...both Father and Son. Mayim (water) is plural (dual) both bitter and sweet. Ephraim is plural meaning double fruit. Mahanaim means 2 camps. Chayim is life...

The rejection is by believers. The non-acceptance is by unbelievers. How many believers reject the deeper implications of the gospel? How many refuse obedience and conformity to God's ways? How many deny the truth? This is all too common. I think it is unwise to read about religious people of...

The reason is that we expose ourselves by the way we think. God is looking for us to believe from the innermost part of us. The inner man is in the deepest part of us. Many people believe from a superficial part of themselves (the outer man). There is no depth to the outer man...it's all about...

Jesus could have said... access to Zion in the spiritual realm is about to open up to you. We are to seek the kingdom of God. If the kingdom realm was only available after we die then we would have to be seeking our physical death...which of course is absurd. Through Christ, we have access into...

A half truth plus another half truth doesn't lead to the truth if a person only stands for one at a time.

Being freed from sin is the result of the outer man being crucified. If you wish to ride on the testimony of Paul as if it was transferable to you by wishful thinking and adopted belief...you have the free will to do so.

Which part of people...that is the issue that you are avoiding...again! Do you believe that Jesus died to save the WHOLE man? Do you believe that it is only when we wish to save our lives that we are saved...OR...when we lose our lives that we are saved? So which part do we give up (if any)? It...

Hey Nancy, I am fully convinced that safety with the Lord revolves around being humble and fearing the Lord. It is when we deviate from that path of righteousness that we get in trouble. Men would have us to abandon the righteous path in order to grasp at the promises of the higher walk. Very...

You should consider that the term "church bashing" is itself an overgeneralization that may include impugning the prophets of God and the Lord Himself as perpetrators. Whether knowingly or unknowingly, going too far one way or the other leaves room for the devil to do his thing. It is too easy...

I understand why you would think that Jesus isn't God. The scriptures must be read as they are written, however. The bible records that Yahweh was the friend of Moses...not some angel. Would you have God be an angel. When there is an angel of the Lord the bible says that. When a person...

Grace is received in two steps. There is the initial grace received as a free gift at regeneration. And there is the fullness of grace that must be purchased from the Lord. The cost is everything you have and are. Remember the parable of the kingdom whereby to have the pearl of great price one...

This is a great answer. Succinct and to the point. :)

The idea of "church bashing" as an accusation is not from God but from below...protecting the fallen state of most of the church. If you want to revile a supreme church basher who is the Lord...as does the prince of this world...not realizing that a wake up call is far better than being cast...

The very opposite is true. The only biblical description of a walk in the Spirit is that it is not natural or a common occurrence. The way of Christ is hard and narrow not easy and wide. You should check again the street signs where you are walking. I laugh when people say that something is not...

The Godhead is the Father and the Son .....who partake of One Spirit. Through Christ we are invited into the fellowship of that One Spirit. It is mistakenly understood that the Spirit is a separate person in the Godhead. But this is not so. Our fellowship is with the Father and the Son through...
