    What Day Is The Sabbath ???

    Jesus didn't give us a day we must worship on. He gave us a way that we must worship. And that is in Spirit and truth.

    HILLSONG

    When I hear the name 'Hillsong' it makes me think of the worship song request...Can you sing...."On a hill far far away"?...please!:p

    Fear God or Presume acceptance

    No one is forcing you to open your mind and heart to eternal things. But I am asking if you would do so...leave room for more of God and more of His revelation.

    WOULD YOU LIKE TO JOIN A NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH?

    Of course. The apostles weren't ready at the time...and they learned many things subsequently that are not recorded in the gospels or epistles. Jesus said that the Spirit would come to teach us all things. And that is very true.

    Fear God or Presume acceptance

    Agreed. To add this in...that when we speak of the bible there are many parts that speak specifically of the elevated walk...a favourite theme of Paul. But there are also many references to the kind of faith and faithfulness required so that whether we are present or absent from His...

    WOULD YOU LIKE TO JOIN A NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH?

    Paul only knew Jesus spiritually...a divine visitation. And we are NOT to know any man according to the flesh. So then we can speak with witnesses of Christ. Jesus is still alive and still visits people.

    Leaving Room For God.

    A lot of offences happen when we look to others to adopt their idea of spirituality in our formative stages. We can naively trust a person who has an aberrant behaviour and only see the damage this can cause when it is already too late. Damage done. The aberrant behaviour begins when we get the...

    Fear God or Presume acceptance

    When God gave the 10 commandments to Moses He wrote them on 2 tablets. On the one tablet were written the holiness laws (4) concerning loving God and on the other were the other 6 commandments concerning righteousness and loving others as ourselves. Now when the rich young man asked Jesus what...

    Fear God or Presume acceptance

    We inherit the promises by being faithful and obedient in the conditions. We are in a race...and only they who run Olympic style are going to obtain. Slackers need not think they will receive anything from God. Heb. 6:12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and...

    Fear God or Presume acceptance

    His grace is sufficient for us to do what HE wants us to do...not for us to feel saved without having run the race. In that case our imagination is sufficient. The Lord's grace is sufficient to fulfill the commands of Jesus to 'Love as I have loved" And the scandalous "Be perfect as your...

    Fear God or Presume acceptance

    But you must realize that Jesus was more than a social worker with His heart in the right place. You are still trying to pit righteousness against holiness. You are arguing a part of the truth against it's more profound complimentary part. And this is due to your experience of fraudulent...

    Fear God or Presume acceptance

    People have debated justification for millenia. It comes down to this...God justifies whom he sees fit to. So a person may worry over that...but it is God who justifies. No one knows who has been finally received or cut off. So we are all in the same race. Then there is the EXPERIENCE of...

    Fear God or Presume acceptance

    Leave more room for God.

    Where I am you shall also be.

    Fear God or Presume acceptance

    It is to walk in that other realm where everything is in the light. There is an eternal and timeless joy there. This is the kingdom walk in the presence of God in holiness. From there is no sin at all...it is complete purity and beauty. In the Spirit we experience the peace of Zion. So the power...

    Fear God or Presume acceptance

    If you could see that one is not against the other. But they work together. The revivals are necessary. The walking out part between the revivals are also necessary. Like breathing in and out. They bring new life and new character. Without the revivals people aim too low...too humanistic and...

    Fear God or Presume acceptance

    It is true that the high calling in Christ is no longer preached in the modern churches. But that's because the people don't want to hear about it. I understand that if you speak too much truth to a hurting people...who have been promised an easy salvation through a very wide gate that suits...

    entire sanctification is an obtainable goal.

    Of course God helps us...but He also helps everyone in the world if they would pay attention. But the power of God as per the bible is on a whole other level. Like what pray tell is a testimony of His resurrection power? The problem with this is ...who is measuring the scale? What are we...

    To ministers and Christian teachers of the Word

    This concerns what we are to add to our faith as per 2 Pet. 1. This concerns Christian character in maturity....not sanctification. Overcoming habits and disorders is a part of the maturing process...namely...self-control. It's a hard one to master. But our maturity is about how we do in our...
