The early church answered this in saying, we may share in God's energies but not His essence. Sharing in His energies, they called Theosis or union with Christ. They were clear that although many will say that we cannot do this till after this life, there are thousands of testimonies and texts...

I no longer have any regard for Calvinist teachings, even the moderate. They do not follow the early church BEFORE Augustine.

We can. But the higher walk is only achieved with His faith.

I understand this last comment. Been there. The answer is Phil. 2:13. We can pray that He will make us willing to be restored so that we can walk in holiness once more. Cry out for it, because in these dark times, we need to have that discernment so we can help others and not get caught up in...

Hey, @thelord's_pearl As part of my recovery from childhood trauma, I have come across a coach called The Crappy Childhood Fairy, and she does courses on looking for a partner which I may get myself as she seems pretty wise about romantic relationships. I have decided that I will look for a...

@suzzeeb sorry for the distraction on your thread. We have been too influenced by the myth that the Christian life is all fluffy and joyful when it involves much suffering if we are to get close to Christ. It was when l thanked God for the bad things in my life too that things began to change...

I believe there is a point where a person's conscience is so seared that they are beyond hope. God will have given them many chances. Of course God can do anything, but these people have 50 years of prayers behind them.

Non Christians get to heal this damage too. I have absolutely no doubt I am healing very quickly now. One thing I have done for a very long time was twist myself like a pretzel as Americans like to say, to please my family and try to have a relationship with them till at Christmas when the...

I forgave them ages ago. The unhealed damage was to the brain not the soul.

Okay then hies, what are the lies I believe? Fyi I met with Jesus on 23rd September 1973 at 9pm when He showed me that He had died for my sins on the cross when I asked God to show me the truth..

The terms are useful for man to enable him to find help. There are definite signs of these conditions though of course everyone is selfish, but in grades. These are people who destroy lives in measurable ways. Oh I know that I have hurt people by the damage done to me. I received no love...

I agree with you, honesty is needed, well for everything. I would have said the same as you 4 months ago and told people that God had healed me but I still had symptoms like anxiety and insomnia but thought they were due to cfs. Then a traumatic time I went through recently brought it all to...

Sorry to hear about your own PTSD but cPTSD is not the same. It is far more complex. Yes being a believer helped me survive but did not get down to what recent research is showing about the physical damage apart from psychological issues. Also the sort of support needed is best coming from...

Feeding a starving man refers to the knowledge gained from missionaries that you see to the physical needs before you preach.

Sorry hies, it doesn't work like that. cPTSD is damage that needs repairing. Yes a loving relationship helps, but in 50 years of my walk with God as a born again believer, it has only gone so far with recovery and the Lord is bringing out some really deep stuff now. Recovery can be very fast...

The physical, including brain damage from trauma, needs to sorted out first. Hey hies, you in the northeast too! You feed a starving man first.

Sweetheart, No emotional support and alcoholic parents? You have been traumatized. https://crappychildhoodfairy.com/

Well if you are not suffering from trauma, then there could be something biological that is affecting your neurotransmitters. I am not a medic by the way just am one who has had to do a great deal of biohacking though my life since mercury poisoning in infancy. Medical science does not have...

I believe it is much more complicated than that with certain family dynamics. Was there a scapegoat amongst your siblings?
