    Brand New Music Album Project just finished

    Hey! Thanks for the interest. I record at 2 studios really. Both are home studios. The one where I do most of the recording uses Cubase and I record drums where he uses Protools. I'm really not that technical myself...but I think over the years I've come to think that protools is a little...

    What about the Death to Self message ?

    I just wanted to add that this whole idea of renewing the mind is so often just a person becoming indoctrinated into a static way of thinking...in the OLD mind. It is a waste of time. We can only be renewed in our minds when we are already IN the presence of God...realizing that old ways of...

    What about the Death to Self message ?

    This is like the chicken and egg question...which came first? :) I see it as a stand-off between God and we modern believers. Now most of us claim everything positionally so then these are happy with the status quo. I leave these to their delusion. But let's look at this in a deeper way...and...

    Competing in the Games

    Back to the race of faith. Do you think it a coincidence that the Olympics have medals of gold, silver and bronze...but then so does the Lord? Exodus 31:3 3 And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,4 To...

    Competing in the Games

    I have nothing against Christian entertainment...like the Sunday morning entertainment services/shows that people attend. Just don't call it church. Just to show I'm not against Christian entertainment...I would recommend Tim Hawkins. Here's a minister of entertainment that actually has...

    Acts 2:44

    We will know we have become true disciples when the church looks like it did in Acts 2. Otherwise we have the status quo...superficiality.

    How do you personally handle unanswered prayer?

    How do you personally handle unanswered prayer? Wait on the Lord.

    Competing in the Games

    Here is another excellent exhortation at the end of 2 Clement...(Ch. 20) 2 let us have faith, brothers and sisters! We are competing in the contest of a living God, and are being trained by the present life in order that we may be crowned in the life to come. 3 None of the righteous ever...

    You are perhaps unaware that I have been posting here for years now. You are the beginner here. ;) If you want to read what I have posted based on the threads I have started, go to my featured threads.... Episkopos .... and read what you feel led to read. BEGIN

    Competing in the Games

    I really like reading the early church fathers. Recently I've been reading Clement...Bishop of Rome and contemporary to John the apostle. He was overseer at Rome from 88 to 99. So we have an opportunity to hear from someone who was near the action of God in the early church. Here is a portion I...

    NO SALVATION Outside The DOCTRINE of CHRIST

    To spread the doctrine of Christ and to give testimony to the new life which is in Christ in Zion.

    NO SALVATION Outside The DOCTRINE of CHRIST

    This is true...that salvation is a process and when we die we are as clay that is then glazed (fired) so that we can present our vessels before the Lord to be judged in that last state. Until then we can be molded by the Lord...if we are willing. But we can walk in salvation right now by...

    Keith Getty on Modern Worship Movement

    We meet in homes so we are not a religious business like the churches out there that make money. We are not an incorporated church business. We don't have a name or publish a hymnal. In fact I'm humming a hymn right now...does that make me a lawbreaker? :) If you sing a Christmas carol in your...

    The Church in the Wilderness

    Why is it God's design that we begin our Christian walks in the wilderness? We are to learn faithfulness through suffering. This is the way of God's training. Of course there will always be people who rebel against this. We must come through turmoil and tribulation and afterwards receive...

    Keith Getty on Modern Worship Movement

    The modern worship songs are very often watered down in regards to truth so that people can relate to them better. And I think that they who write have not much to say to people as it is so very formulaic so often. Just put the word Jesus in there ...sort of thing. So then superficiality has...

    NO SALVATION Outside The DOCTRINE of CHRIST

    It is a true saying that..."Our idea of God tells us more about ourselves than about Him." Thomas Merton

    NO SALVATION Outside The DOCTRINE of CHRIST

    God doesn't need fanatics about truth...but people who live in the truth. We are to speak the truth in love. Fanaticism is the human mind adding in it's force to the issue. But this force is of the flesh...by the carnal will of men. Better to allow the truth to just be and enter into it. So then...

    NO SALVATION Outside The DOCTRINE of CHRIST

    God has made it so that religious fanatics can't understand God's love. Fanaticism is against love as it seeks to force people to believe certain things....or else. That is man's way of interpreting and enforcing the bible....but not God's. The doctrine of Christ is to enter into God's life...

    NO SALVATION Outside The DOCTRINE of CHRIST

    But you, as judge of all mankind, have not added in yourself into the equation. You don't see yourself...and how pathetic your opinions are. You don't see your own lack of righteousness.

    NO SALVATION Outside The DOCTRINE of CHRIST

    A lack of love as you are displaying...not a lack of stubborn pride in they who think they know Christ.
