Episkopos said: ↑ If we would depart from iniquity and seek the Lord now....would we not be shown God's pleasure in His gifting of grace? Hi Marks, I believe Epi does have a good point here because we ARE to depart from iniquity. God hates sin, cannot and will not ever accept it. If we are...

Very interesting take on the thorn in Paul's flesh, one of the more interesting articles I have read in quite awhile. Have not heard it put this way before. It does fit the scriptures pretty well...especially the OT use of the same word "thorn" as messenger/angel. "In the Old Testament, the...

Yes Marks, That fullness seems to be given to each of us more and more as we grow in knowing Him. All I WANT in this life and the next is Christ Life! Amen! :)

Fully agreed!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Then, if He sees fit to allow me to reach this higher calling, I will gladly accept it. It is not that I haven't been praying about these things like, constantly! Ha! And, He will not shut His children off if we ask. He has taken away all of my outward sin habits...drinking, drugging...

Epi, Where do you see people here looking for "feel good" about yourself? If we are truly seeking Truth, will God not enlighten us, especially if our hearts are in the right place. A daily prayer of mine : Lord, continue to show me your Truth, no matter how hard some of it might be on this...

Hi Epi, Not sure where you see selfish natures being brought about. The Word is what I filter every single spiritual thing through and, if I cannot find something that lines up, I must discard it. This is not to say that I would EVER scoff at or downplay another's experience, that is way...

Ahhh, HRT! I never took that and, when I went through the menopause, there seemed to be no difference in how I felt, lol. Praise God for that!!! I agree Rita, I also am so tired of I'm right they are wrong posts and, this forum is rife with them. Some good folks no longer come here because of...

"... and maybe wishes she hadn’t even commented..." Hi Victory, You are a kind lady. And yes, I do regret posting in here, it was a tough day and Satan barraged me with doubt and I kind of panicked. And for any others on here, I do not need a pat on the back but, like all of us, a little...

Hi soul man. I love your posts, they are full of treasures. There was one you recently posted and I cannot find it now, I think it was "Who is Jesus". I wanted to come back to it because it was a bit lengthy. One of the things I remember is about how you mentioned the fact that Jesus IS the...

Hi Rita! Has been awhile since seeing you on here. So happy that you can still see Him working in your life. I know how tough working with the dementia patients can burn you out. You have allot on your plate and probably nobody helping you. And yes, phones silent, fair weathered friends...can...

Well, Satan is the prince of this world and, there can't be one thing he doesn't have his influence in. His evil has infiltrated the world, and so many people have no idea how he works. Even Christians which is disturbing. If the elect can be deceived (if possible) by false Christs and false...

:D

Oh gosh! Never knew there were bot trolls, lol!

Never know what the "wind" will blow in...sometimes it is fresh air, sometimes it is someone who puts him or herself in the position of God. They "know" your heart???! Critical, unteachable, unkind and hugely presumptuous are they. People like this must be very miserable.

PROVERBS 13:18 "Poverty and shame shall be to him that refuseth instruction: but he that regardeth reproof shall be honoured." PROVERBS 12:1 "Whoso loveth instruction loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof is brutish." Proverbs 3:7 “Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord”

Hm, maybe Giuliano means the other things God told them TO do....till the ground, have kids, keep dominion over all the creatures. Then the biggie do NOT....eat of the tree. So, it seems that God only warned them against one thing. Yes, I would say these other things were commandments too...

First you say "I find nowhere in scripture that evil or sin already existed before Adam and Eve sinned." Then you say: "I do see a serpent tempting Eve to be disobedient to the command God had commanded them to obey." So, the serpent who USED to be Lucifer was already in that garden before...

"So...by your thoughts, God didn't create the angels perfect either. Because by your thought, if you are capable of sin, you aren't created perfectly." It seems simple to me that if one were "perfect" that they would not sin. A third of the angels decided to take sides with Satan so...I would...

Well, it is the Tree of the knowledge of good and EVIL, yes? Maybe I should have said that evil and sin had been UN-leashed on us? We still have to fight that parasite called sin inside us, don't you think?
