    Perfection

    Yes! So often some people will agree with me because they have misunderstood what I'm saying. It comes from indoctrination. :) But the truth is there....even if we just nod our approval and ignore the content. As the old adage says... "Well received, dismissed by all." If I say...our...

    Perfection

    I meant "Christian" in an historical sense....not a modern sense. What the bible testifies about. Humility dictates that we should never claim anything for ourselves. We should rather err on the side of "non-declaration." But the perfection of Christ is a gift to us who go to God by faith. Our...

    Perfection

    A Christian is one who no longer is limited to what a man can do. Christ is our perfection. The only thing that gets in the way of a perfect walk is US. So then the power of the cross of Christ takes care of that...so that it is no longer a weak "I" that lives and walks...but Christ who lives...

    Should Christians run for public office?

    The church has to go deeper into the truth....and stop doing things on the surface to attract more people in a superficial way. At this time, the churches advertise by tantalizing the self-interest. Getting "saved".....being able to look down on others as "unsaved"....etc. Very anti-love and...

    Should Christians run for public office?

    Society must follow spiritual powers. If the church does not hold the initiative for advancing the kingdom....then this leaves room for the devil to advance his own agenda.

    Flat earth.

    Overheard today..."the flat earth thing is going around the globe."
  7. Episkopos

    Perfection

    Perfection is allowing Christ to live and shine out of us.

    Is Faith in Jesus Faith to Keep the Law?

    Paul's reference to the law is not the law of God....but the laws that constitute holiness...or those things that were mere markers of an actual walk with God.

    Christ vs the anti-Christ: Who is winning?

    Only in the short term. The judgment of God will determine what shortcuts so many have taken that seem to "save" us and give us security.

    Christ vs the anti-Christ: Who is winning?

    Of course. Satan always wins over the crowds....the masses. Jesus calls us outside the crowd as individuals who come together....never as the crowd. Political power is by the masses....by the devil himself. As long as Christians look to politics they are looking to the devil for answers. So then...

    Should Christians run for public office?

    This is propaganda of course. It's funny how Christians are just as gullible to propaganda as the world is. We are not to do NOTHING. We are to ACT as Jesus acted. We are HIS body after all. Jesus did NOT return evil for evil. He did good to overcome evil. ACTIVELY. How do you overcome evil...

    Paul's Mention Of Christ In You??

    How does one raise the dead? A magic formula? How does one walk without sin in the power and presence of God? Good morals? The spiritual walk in Christ is not according to this world. It is other. It is the manifestation of the life and power of Christ that as a seed falls to the ground, dies...

    Should Christians run for public office?

    The most utterly stupid idea is to think you need to have power over someone in order to help them. Nonsense. Jesus taught HIS followers to be SERVANTS under others....not masters OVER others. So much for the idiocy of Christian politics. It's of the devil. People want to be seen as...

    Should Christians run for public office?

    It's the HOW we do things that counts. God resists our certainties. The problems in the world are caused by the spiritual failures of the church. Believers want to be certain about everything. So does the world. Our religious certainties go hand in hand with the technological certainties...

    Should Christians run for public office?

    I have heard it said...ludicrously...that Trump is a necessary evil, ordained by God. (The God who ordains necessary evils???)

    The whole world will be deceived

    The world is already deceived...but so is the church....for the most part. We lack knowledge of ourselves and our situation. We have let faith degenerate into religious belief and revelation into religion. Judgment begins with us. WE are the first ones responsible for the way the world is...

    Should Christians run for public office?

    Don't assume that all non-Christians are evil. Many people who seek office do so with altruistic designs....although they have the mixture of wanting the power that goes with the devil's domain. A Christian is supposed to be wiser than that. Jesus resisted the temptation to take the short-cut...

    Should Christians run for public office?

    No. A true disciple of Christ does not entangle himself with the affairs of this world. We have a different citizenship and a different ambassadorship. One can't get involved in politics without getting involved with the devil.

    Why Christians Disagree

    That's what God would say....where are you?

    Why Christians Disagree

    You are looking on the wrong level. God does not reveal Himself to the outer natural man. God isn't like us. (THANKFULLY) When you look in a person's eyes...are you studying the other from a scientific or robotic perspective? God is MORE intimate than people are. Infinitely so. God does not...
