Welcome here SBG! :)

The law of faith is like the law of aerodynamic lift that makes planes fly. The law of sin is like gravity. So then just as a plane can fly by overcoming the law of gravity by another law ...which is of flight...so also the law of faith allows us to overcome all things in this life...sin, the...

I think your karma ran over their dogma! ;)

I am thinking more along the lines of cooperation in what is received from God...revelation...prophecy..etc. We need to take an interest in the spiritual development of each person..with LESS emphasis on dogmatics. Some things can be learned along the way...why make somebody believe a creed...

Actually being a conqueror is not the same as just thinking you are. We are talking about the ability to see just how we're doing in truth...so we can get there.

Israel is both a nation AND a congregation of the nations. Ge. 35:11 And God said unto him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee (Israel), and kings shall come out of thy loins; In Hebrew it is Goy (nation) ou-kehal (and a church or...

The culture here has definitely improved since I was last on a number of years ago. The "likes" come flowing...whereas before they were stingy indeed.

You know, the writing on the archway that led to the oracle at Delphi in ancient Greece was...know yourself. There was some insight there.

You remember! :) A few years yes...I think 4 or so. Been doing very well. Hope that all is well with you as well.

This is exactly right. We need to feel what others feel...and put ourselves in their place...even if it doesn't fit. I think we stand more of a chance to rise above the negatives in this way. And we can appreciate the troubles of others. If we look to understand others...then I think God will...

Amen. Too many people see themselves as the winners in every bible scenario...rather than trying themselves by placing themselves in every verse whether good or bad. I don't know how many people I have asked...do you see yourself as a possible failure (like one of the foolish virgins)...do you...

Know yourself. This is very important. When we fail even more than when we succeed, we are learning our limitations. A person that doesn't realize who he/she is can't see himself/herself properly in the word. Most people think too highly of themselves and a few have low self-esteem. But who sees...

When it says we are filled with the Spirit...it means as full as we can be...even to overflowing. The difference is in the SIZE of the vessel. Some containers are bigger than others. And even today we can be filled with the Spirit to walk as Jesus walked. The difficulty is in allowing ourselves...

To add to this post on Proverbs 7. Prov. 7:5 That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words. Prov. 7:21 With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him. False doctrine is very appealing to the...

Nice.

We are all in this together. I see spiritual advancement as a team sport. We are up against all the other generations...and not in competition with each other. I think if we realized our need of each other we would pull together to do better than we possibly could on our own. The church is meant...

Here is a harder one that shows the depth of the word. It involves Proverbs 7. This chapter about the "strange woman", which, on the face of it, is about physical adultery and a warning against it. It concerns they who lack "understanding." More on this later. Prov. 7:7 And beheld among the...

Judge by the power of a new life in Christ. Jesus said...I came to bring you life...and eternal kind of life that is in the light...His eternal light. This is a difficult thing we have embarked on...to follow Christ. First, there is something that God does...give us a new spiritual birth. Then...

Bless you Apak! :)
