    I saw a partial vision, of the Spirit of God's Wisdom, swirling above me (worship?)

    Hi there, So, I just had the partial vision of the Spirit of God's Wisdom, swirling above me (like an aura borealis, but one colour) - and I just had to share! I wonder where the Spirit will lead? Yours truly, Chris

    It's possible to get a second wind, while fasting - you are able to enjoy the benefits of fasting, long before you are finished (fasting?)

    Hi there, So I did a little stint, where I tried to fast and found I could only stand it, for about three days. Then I discovered I could fast much longer, if I just allowed myself to have a little amount of sustenance on the side. Then I realised I was addicted to junk food and that I would...

    NDEs and ADCs: Their Apologetic Value for Christian Witness

    The problem is that NDEs and ADCs don't substitute for the work of a changed life, and so cannot increase the trust of God on their own. If a NDE or ADC provoked a confession worthy of God, then we would have the beginning of the commitment of a life committed to God. Plenty of people say...

    Whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will NOT be forgiven

    Bear in mind, that in every case but one, the blasphemy people against the Holy Spirit are guilty of is unique to them. There is no way for you to ask me, to blaspheme the Holy Spirit for you, I wouldn't know how - not because I don't know what blasphemy is, but because I don't know what your...

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

    Fi I sya I wnat umtation lal teh mtie, I ma a ilar. ("If I say I want mutation all the time, I am a liar") Now you say "but it makes the need for making sense stronger" but I say "only if pity is prepared to go out on a limb". That really is the issue: how out on a limb are we as a people...

    Typical questions people ask about the Olivet Discourse.

    I would hazard a guess at the broadest question: was Jesus' approach to the Olivet discourse hot or cold? (and the second is like it) Why was it cold?

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    MYSTERY is basically the contrast to Wisdom (not the opposite, the "contrast").

    Here's another likeable thread: what is it, that you want the Holy Spirit to take from Christ and give to you the most? (thinking?)

    Ok well, if people don't mind my going first, I will tell you what I most want: I want Christ's motive! I think if I was motivated the way Christ was, I would use opportunities to share the Father's Love with great deal more fear (and trepidation?) It's an interesting thing to want, in faith...

    A Calvinist Conversation with God

    You guys are conflating what God asks of the flesh and what God asks of the spirit. God asks of the flesh that it strengthen, God asks of the spirit that it manifest. It is not necessary for flesh to manifest, hence it needn't reach Heaven and it is not necessary for spirit to strengthen and...

    Switching meds now, could use some prayer

    Medication and a man's life, are not meant to be forever together. I'll pray for you!

    Are all sins equal?

    John said (from memory) "I do not say you should pray for all sin, there is some sin leading to death" 1 John 5:16

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

    I got it! I got it! I got it! Gentiles are able to trust three things in the Holy Spirit: one, the resumption, two, the revision, and three, the restitution. The resumption is the faith that having begun to flourish in the world and manifest positive traits, even though we cease to strive when...

    I got a job at the local council! Praise God!

    Yes, I have been taking notes (screenshots actually). If I hadn't done that I would be sunk!

    Premarital sex, resulted in a life handed over to the cruel one (Proverbs 5:9) - now I can't escape? (help?)

    Hi there, So to be frank, I had pre-marital sex and developed a sexual dysfunction (constant desire). My relationship with the person in question, is nowhere. I now don't trust myself and feel very weak about things I should be strong about (the importance of a healthy relationship, God having...

    Why all of evil is good

    Good keeps knowledge of evil, limited (selah)

    Should Christians Love Everyone?

    Don't forget the Golden Proverb: You don't need to like someone to be kind to them, and you don't need to keep being kind to be liked (selah)

    Why all of evil is good

    You would like evil to learn from the knowledge of good, but doing good can't save you (on its own). It's a classic case of saying something that is "close to the truth" and hoping that people will overlook that its not the truth. Forgiving evil, is good, but not on a pretext of good only ever...

    I got a job at the local council! Praise God!

    You have got to pray for me guys: my medication is making my job really hard. Just pray that my bosses won't get tired of me, asking for repetitions of what to do!

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

    I said "is it kind or class, that you want God?" He said "neither, its a false dichotomy"

    Here's a likeable thread: Name something you like about a denomination (of Church) other than your own! (really, anything)

    Something you could do, is think of what you like about a Church that is the opposite of your own in terms of temperature. Like if you are in a cold Church, what do you like about a hot Church? I like the enthusiasm of black preachers that stir up the congregation to praise God; as an attendee...
