The depths and layers of his deception are the cloak of his success in the world

It can be very difficult...especially if we get busy and caught up with our earthly responsibilities. Keep the faith...maintain your hope...and try getting some forward momentum. Sow to the Spirit where you can.

The enemy is a spiritual entity operating behind the scenes and fooling people to do his will. This force has infiltrated into the churches bringing false doctrines and bad attitudes towards growth in Christ. Shining the truth into dark places is the beginning of spiritual warfare.

Yes. He seeks to have dominion over us for the sake of his own rebellion against the ways of God.

We are to love what God loves and also hate what He hates. We are to hate every evil way. We are to love others as if they we us. We are trying to take evil away from people and cause the reign of the wicked one to be frustrated BY grace. (as opposed to frustrating grace)

Open a thread about the heavenly (spiritual realm) when you have the time. I'd be happy to join you there. :)

MICAH 2:13 One who breaks open the way will go up before them; they will break through the gate and go out. Their king will pass through before them, the LORD at their head." Luke 3:5 Every valley will be filled, and every mountain and hill will be made low; and the crooked will become into...

We know that the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit. But this doesn't mean that the natural man can't be informed ABOUT the Spirit. That's how we get a false gospel and a counterfeit spirituality. The natural man is religious in nature and he looks for a means of survival. If...

Adam and Eve references are found at the beginning of Genesis. Jesus referenced the mountain that is moved by faith and cast into the sea. The barrier to faith is a wall or barrier to God and His presence. Until the inner man rises up with faith the barrier remains intact. Another way to put...

You have a good grip on this! Bless you! Keep running to win! :)

You need to lean more about your own condition. We carry the dying of Jesus because we are a living sacrifice. It is a continual state of dying...so that we can have a continual state of living in the power of Christ. There is no LIFE in Jesus unless there is also a DEATH in Jesus. But only...

What is the mountain that is moved by faith? The inner man lives behind a wall or barrier...or mountain. He hides within us...fearful in his nakedness and vulnerability. Remember how Adam and Eve hid in the garden. But faith will bring him out into the open. Into the light. By faith the inner...

Amen. Very simple yet very profound...far too much for the proud and indoctrinated among us. Dying to yourself...is to the outward man...the natural strengths and inclinations. What we are empowered in is the inner man who is weak...but yet by faith can move mountains.

Paul in the natural had many things to boast of. But he counted all these things as loss that he might win Christ. That means he allowed the breaking of the outer natural man so as to grow in faith in the inner man. Think about it...when a person applies for a pastor position in a church...

No truth here at all. 2 Cor. 4;10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. Those who are disrespectful to the OP have NO understanding of the above verse. Unless there is a part that is crucified no...

I can tell the importance of a subject by the carnal reaction of they who adhere to the doctrines of men...AND by the warm reception of they who have resisted lies to hold on to the truth in humility.

Here come the vultures. This is obviously a very important topic...and one whereby the enemy would want to drown out the truth. The enemy uses people who are uncrucified and don't know themselves. They are easily captured to stand against the truth. This is why it is dangerous to remain as...

fear mongering. What you say is far from the truth...as usual. I am saying that babes in Christ still depend on the natural man and his faculties...until being weaned from these to walk according to the Spirit. But you don't understand this so you make stuff up and try slander instead of...

My enemies? Bad spirits.

Good subject for a new thread.
