    Where does our world view come from?

    Agreed. Since most have never known anything beside what they were born into outside the spiritual realm...people do take things too far out of balance. I have trouble relating spiritual things to those who think the religious sphere is the same thing.

    Where does our world view come from?

    I agree with the diagram basically (although not with religion being conflated with the realm of the Spirit). I just see the available understanding in the limitations of the flesh to be a carnal one...even as it purports to have an interest in the religious aspect. This is akin to ADDING in...

    Where does our world view come from?

    How about....we see things as WE are not as they are really. We learn things, or we think we learn things by our varied experiences. However, all these experiences are through a corrupted nature....so then we really know how NOT to do things. Then, there's God's way. :)

    Ever been to a PROPHECY Class??

    A prophecy class? I think it more "productive" to have a tongues class....as in repeat after me...Baa baa baa baa (black sheep). Playing "Rubber Biscuit" could also be used to kickstart would-be tongues enthusiasts. :ummm: Seriously, spiritual gifts are as God causes them to happen. Trying to...

    Is there a higher walk for believers in Christ?

    Agreed. But the reason why I use so many bible verses in my podcasts (22 this time) is to show what the bible is telling us about what is available and can be experienced by each of us. God is offering something to us with the gospel. It's up to our faith and love and hope and our perceived NEED...

    Is there a higher walk for believers in Christ?

    When the Son of Man returns will He find faith on the Earth? Not human religious beliefs, creeds and dogmas. These have multiplied to the detriment of faith. Faith takes us to the higher walk...the walk that is IN Christ. In Him is no sin.

    Is there a higher walk for believers in Christ?

    New Podcast! Take the time to investigate the deeper ramifications of the gospel.

    Is Reality an Illusion?

    This is a matter of what the faith of Christ is. Faith is the evidence of things not seen...not a speculation, not a religious opinion, not a theological surmising. It is an evidence...a sure thing because we actually experience the Lord the way we read about in the bible. Faith SEES. Faith...

    Is Reality an Illusion?

    "while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal." 2 Cor. 4:18

    Is Reality an Illusion?

    Good question. When we sin unto death we can't remain in the eternal reality. This is by the mercy of God. The angels who sin are eternally condemned. So then rather than condemn us, we are cast into the simulation for training. There is no sin permissible in God's presence/realm. The modern...

    Is Reality an Illusion?

    12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. 13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teaches, but which the Holy Ghost teaches; comparing spiritual things with...

    Relaxing jazz with beautiful scenes

    Nice thread! Here's some kinda relaxing jazz of my own making. :)
  13. Episkopos

    Is Reality an Illusion?

    I didn't think you would answer my question. You have no answers just obscurantism....and logical fallacies to defend the carnal mind above the knowledge of God. Very common way to write off the words of Jesus.

    Is it possible not to sin anymore?

    Of course it is possible. We don't sin when we enter INTO Christ. In Him is no sin.

    Is Reality an Illusion?

    You are not getting it. Your thinking is itself based only on a temporal worldview. hence the difficulty of wrapping your mind around spiritual things. You need to break free from your carnal mindset to look upon things that are above. Assuming you read the bible and have some interest in what...

    Is Reality an Illusion?

    Money, fame, renown....are these real and have eternal meaning? Or will everything we have experienced here on earth be forgotten? Is a flight simulator real? Is a video game real? In some ways, yes. But in the deeper analysis...no. If one argues for the game or the simulator being real to the...

    Is Reality an Illusion?

    When? How do you know you are not a Laodicean who esteems his own position with God too highly...or one of the very many whom Jesus will claim not to know? Do you think those are important enough considerations? (not many here take that seriously). Is there any need for the fear of the Lord at...

    Is Reality an Illusion?

    That all depends what you believe you are being called into. :)

    Is Reality an Illusion?

    You are missing the depth of what it means to walk the narrow way. That is a Gnostic idea. Jesus had the same flesh as we do.
  20. Episkopos

    Is Reality an Illusion?

    Sure. Those who are walking the narrow path are being perfected in character. Only those who have personally entered into Christ have put on His perfection in holiness. These are the saints who walk without sin. Amen. Many must be sifted through to get to the few. Many are called but few are...
