    I can't tell you how much dealing with a Chromium deficiency has changed my life! (addicted to sugar?)

    It's got to the point, where my appetite for carbohydrates (essentially sugars), has diminished a little too. My mindset is getting so healthy!

    "Is excessive interpretation the root cause of differences in understanding and doctrinal divisions in the Bible?"

    The point is that there can be greater unity among the pieces (doctrines). If there was one doctrine, would we truly have faith?

    The Greatest Lie Ever Told: You’re Fine Just as You Are

    "As you are" is another way of referring to the anti-Christ.

    Scripture says "in His Name, the Gentiles will trust" - what will 'Evolutionist Gentiles' trust in Jesus?

    I think the sad thing is, that the world is always going to take the "predator's" path. Jesus said "Behold I send you out as sheep among wolves" - He wouldn't say that, if wolves were eventually going to become sheep (because He said His word will never pass away). I guess all we can do, is...

    Great Men Are Not Always Wise: Neither Do The Aged Understand Judgment.

    The great do not always seek to be wise; the aged do not want to visit judgment on the next generation

    Struggling with lust

    This is not so much for the OP, as it was years ago, but: Even the disgraced, live a pleasant life, in the Lord (selah)

    To enjoy Grace in Heaven, you have to love the work (selah)

    I'm starting to understand, that certain people of the faith, love to repeat that Grace is by faith, not works. I don't want to take that enjoyment away from them. I wonder how that faith will grow, that's all. I mean is the seventieth time you repeat that "Grace is by faith, not works", any...

    Three ways of listening: with the head, with the heart, and with the soul (time to spare?)

    The soul is mysterious, I agree. To listen with the soul, you must release your spirit and receive of the life of the soul. If I listened with my head, I might focus on particular words; if I listened with my heart I might focus on particular emotions; and if I listened with my soul, I might...

    Don't fall into the trap, of thinking your faith is solely your doing - it is your doing in part, but praise God daily

    Yes, but the whole point is that He wants our faith to surprise Him. You are talking about robots and mind control.

    Don't fall into the trap, of thinking your faith is solely your doing - it is your doing in part, but praise God daily

    You are making the mistake of the Gnostics, to punish the flesh as "evil". The head is important, but it is not the whole of the body. Let me explain, I had a contention with my earthly father, that God could not possibly know me, better than I know myself. It got to the point that I started...

    Eyes Off the Truth: Recovering the Simplicity of the Gospel

    My flesh struggled in me, when I read the title. I think the Devil would really like to complicate the Gospel, and the idea that we can recover the "simplicity" of it, threatens him. I think you nailed it, when you said "the return" is what the simplicity (of the Gospel) points to. I think...

    Don't fall into the trap, of thinking your faith is solely your doing - it is your doing in part, but praise God daily

    The point is that God is not waiting to be thanked for saving, but to hear of how His Son has been rediscovered in you. Now you can be foolish and say "I've done it!" or you can be wise and say "I've done something!"

    The Gospel will be quickened and re-scattered (eyes on the future?)

    Ok right, So this is a very simple observation about how the Gospel is able to be more expertly interpreted, more faithfully delivered. What I am hoping for here, is that you will open your mind up to the idea that there is a true way for the Gospel to be received, that differs for almost...

    Jesus is the way, but how many ways are there to Jesus?

    This thread is annoying for one reason: if you are the "Way" then you are already the "Way to yourself".

    Jesus had the Greatest Will to Live, of any one (One?)

    Hi there, So just to give you something, that will help you relate to Christ: Jesus was the One with the greatest will to live, compared to any Man. It was through this will to live, that He learned to heal and deliver. There was mastery in this, in the end, for He lived so effectively for God...

    Am I crazy, or is advertising targeted in ways that I'm not even aware I am asking for? (really?)

    Now it has picked up that I was planning a trip to Queenscliffe. Not that I wrote the word "Queenscliffe" even once, but my Mum did on another computer.

    Hello from Indiana

    May God add many talents to you here, if He hasn't already! Welcome!

    Is freewill real or just something we invented it ?

    As someone who - intentionally or otherwise - has turned "invention" into an 'art', I have to say: The more ways you invent interpretation to the Bible, the slower you have to go to believe it. If you love going slow, that's great; but the Devil and his angels are not obliged to give you the...

    Dandelion chai tea, helps me relax - is that relevant to your post?
