    Some Questions About Mary

    God chose Mary for his own reasons....those reasons are not divulged. Certain ones have taken an ordinary mortal with ordinary passions of which Mary is and deified her. It has been done in the tradition as of all pagan religions .....that has got to be saying something about those who deified her!

    Some Questions About Mary

    It is nothing more than attempt to pull the wool over one's eyes. It is making and has made a mountain out of a molehill of which the molehill is exceptionally ordinary.

    How Do You Handle Conviction?

    Growth is manifested in the ability to be able to distinguish the voices of self condemnation.....the voices of Satan and the voice of God Many voices are our own....voices of our own unworthiness or conversely of our own superior view. Satan exploits these internal voices and attempts to...

    How Do You Handle Conviction?

    hmmmm, strange isn't it AR?....I suppose it's a bit like how I see God.... ie, once it registers for me that God actually likes me and that he cares about what I think....that he has my interest at heart, I see him in a new fresh light. All the while I see it was not God who had changed but my...

    Some Questions About Mary

    Your first question is way out there. I imagine she wouldn't have done....God is not one to force choices. The truth is she saw it as a high honour. Sex is something quiet different than putting one's finger up ones nose. It is important to learn to understand what the factor is in sex that...

    How Do You Handle Conviction?

    Conviction is God's Sprit saying 'you are in error, not this way'. It is also the prompt to choose to change direction...permanently; to realise one's cup is empty and to have a desire to learn of the good things. Feelings are important yet they are not the sole reference point. If our primary...

    Sterilize Your Conscience

    yes, I think there is truth here. I have learned it is Gods verdict of me that matters. My own verdict fluctuates....sometimes I feel closer to God, other times I feel removed and am tempted to believe my own verdict......this is the lie! God's verdict informs me I am infinitely precious to him...

    Changing Your Perspective

    our whole reality is about perspective AR. It is insights like you have spoken of above that are windows. God gives them to dispel incorrect ideas.....they serve as touch stones for the greater realities.

    Covid 19 and Vitamin C

    An interesting article which highlights the benefits of vitamin C.....information which has been known for a long time. A COVID patient with sepsis was given a megadose of vitamin C. The change in him was 'remarkable'

    Come out of Babylon, what does that mean?

    Babylon is a system of worship....albeit a false system.

    President Trump one hour ago: "This may be the most important speech I've ever made"

    tares are to grow with the wheat.....God will be the decider who is what at the appointed time. If men assume that role they become usurpers relying on their own flawed judgement.

    Is God Really All Loving?

    Misunderstanding/misinterpreting will no doubt take a path that is prickly. Using language which misrepresents the reality in order to shore up one's position is a dangerous pursuit.....morphing meanings is doubly as slippery. Self honesty requires courage with courage being the ability to...

    Is God Really All Loving?

    no AR, I'm not making that comparison.....I am bringing to your attention that this question has been asked by the adversary and was being asked because God's government claimed perfection.

    Is God Really All Loving?

    we have a problem rjs330.....it looks like this....On the one hand we hear that God loves to the point that he is prepared to give his own life so the guilty won't die.....on the other hand we have the texts you quoted where it appears God flips his lid when it suits him......how would you come...

    Is God Really All Loving?

    You have short circuited a big question kcnalp and drawn a conclusion contrary to what the reality of Jesus was about......and it is not possible to hold both views and be congruent. How can this happen? It happens because of a misunderstanding and an ignorance of Hebrew assumptions......and...
