Hi there! So I had the first real connection with the Holy Spirit, right now and I thought "I better share this, or I will miss what's next"! Anyway, what I was thinking was "I'm always thinking of the Cross, with Christ on it" - like that is the default way the image works in my mind. The...

Yes, it is! It's true that Washington DC was America - that's just not the proper way to say it. If I say "Washington DC was American" that is closer to the truth; but really I need to say "Washington DC was an American city". Whatever you say to that, don't say "no, American can't mean cities...

I'm not asking people who haven't been converted, to pray; I'm asking those who have read Luke 21:36 and understood it by the Holy Spirit to be a command, to pray. The faith is not a mountain that needs to be moved; the faith is a cloud that needs to be reminded it has already moved!

I'm not trying to provoke you, but you are repeating half the equation. You have a choice: "Jesus was God" or "Jesus was God crucified" - you can't just say "JESUS was GOD". It's like saying "America was Washington DC"

You can't tell that God was with Christ, on the Cross?

Yes, you've got it! The problem is that at the moment, we have the Holy Spirit in Heaven, not on Earth. When the Abomination of Desolation is revealed, it is on Earth. We need to escape that and stand before the Son of Man (that is, as One). The Bible says "woe to those who are on Earth" (when...

The next step for me, has been letting the Lord in to my struggles. The idea that I needed to work out how to respond on my own, was holding me up! Praise Jesus!

Guys! Guys! Chill! If we prayed for each other right now: what would be similar and what would be different? I think you would both say "we have the Bible in common but interpretation differing": so pray "Lord help them understand my interpretation and help me understand their Bible in Jesus'...

Because Jesus is not just "equal with the Father"? As I said, "Jesus is God crucified" Anyone can talk about God and sound smart; its another thing altogether to pay for the sins of the world, through suffering with God. I mean, if you are not suffering with God, what are you really doing?

I usually don't like things that are just 'interpretation', but I think there is a simple definition: there are people who praise God, because it gets them out of something (like they will blaspheme, because they want to sin without a conscience) and there are people who love God, and keep...

A popular soap opera tv show where I live (in Australia), ends with a train wreck this season. We won't know who lives or dies until the show resumes next year. The crosses burning might be a reference to Gideon, since the faith throughout the nations will give a shout and confuse the enemy...

I feel like I should say "I support Israel" at this point, but I realise some invective can leave you feeling much weaker than you should. Do one thing for us: pray that someone fill the void you leave behind, that way you will feel welcome wherever you are going? Remember, there is always One...

I think the council of the Holy Spirit, is really the answer to this one. Jesus is more of an advocate of the Church, as an external authority; the Holy Spirit is more of an advocate of the Church, as an internal authority. But you already have a sense of what the Holy Spirit would say, when you...

You are undervaluing Christ. Not only did become One with God, He crucified that being One. We do not believe in Jesus because it is a 'nice idea', we believe in Jesus because we overflow with living water when we do. When Jesus returns, is He One? Or is He One within One within One?

You have to remember that some people are lukewarm, they have forgotten that they need to be decisive about the faith. Faith that is just interpretation, is tempting and the Devil is able to lead astray as to what true obedience looks like. Indeed your own post, as this one, needs to include the...

In response to the OP: Jesus did not say "believe Me", He said "You believe in God, believe also in Me" In other words Jesus was saying "believe in Me, for a reason" Not giving people a "reason" to believe in Jesus, turns people away from Jesus (note: I am guilty of this too).

After writing this, I started to get the feeling, that my contrition wasn't strong enough. I needed to acknowledge that I am always going to need the Cross and the Grace of God that comes with it. I'm trusting God for all of it, not just what pops up in my head, here or there!

I just barely understand the gist of what you are saying. Not a criticism, just saying 'have pity'!

If you were convinced that you were not going to take the mark, you would be angry that someone would suggest that your confidence might waver. Bitter that you decided not to already, is something God will have to help you with, I guess.

If Man creates a third temple, the third temple will cry out.
