Thank you @St. SteVen that video was great :) and was a real help to me to understand what was going on.

The lesson we must learn after we have reached the stage of illumination, is how to walk in the Spirit and not in the flesh, to see everything through spiritual eyes and not through fleshy eyes. This includes the part of the flesh which is our 'humanness', like our insticts that God has given...

Rather than getting tied up with phrases we do not ourselves use, like the 'higher walk of Zion' we should concentrate on the idea behind it. Unfortunately, the Holiness Movement that swept the US, was/is misused and misunderstood by many, and became legalistic. We should not base our...

Thanks Wynona it means 'married' to Christ. Wiki says: Hephzibah or Hepzibah (English: /ˈhɛfzɪbə/ or /ˈhɛpzɪbə/; Hebrew: חֶפְצִי־בָהּ‎, Modern: ḥefṣī-vah, Tiberian: ḥep̄ṣī-ḇāh, my delight [is] in her) is a minor figure in the Books of Kings in the Bible. She was the wife of Hezekiah, King of...

I talked to a German Christian woman in Berlin, a few years ago and she said, about the death camps "We had no idea what was going on you know". Afterwards I thought - how can that be? But since seeing what is going on in the world, I know.

Hitler seems to be referring to the international Jewish elite, so why did he kill so many ordinary Jewish civilians?

@Arthur81 On a night when you are lying awake and the thought 'Am I one of the elect?' keeps coming into your mind, don't brush it away, as usual, listen and ask God to show you clearly whether Calvinism is the true gospel. Oh and another tip - don't rely on western takes of Orthodoxy. (Yes I...

As far as most believers know, two interpretations of Romans 7 have dominated church history and are, the so called Primitive (pre Christian) and the Post-Primitive (normal Christian). Augustine held to the Primitive in his early years but he changed his position to the Post-Primitive at a later...

Predestination is in the scriptures. God forordained that some will be perfected, Romans 8:29-30 tells us, “For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. And those he predestined, he also called; those...

Poor Biscuit, obviously named after its favourite treat. You can tell by its coat just how unhealthy it was. The chicken was obviously a last attempt to save it. Too late.

raw chicken - salmonella

No wonder they are sick with humans feeding them unsuitable food like highly processed carbs instead of raw meat which is their native diet. Not surprisingly, the feeders are also sick due to eating those same foods.

It is not just in the early years that a leader of the church, minister or bishop, was expected to be a man who did not sin, and I am looking up teaching on it, even though you may not accept them as authoritive, there have been times when the Spirit of God was there in power, at times such as...

36 Then after some days Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us now go back and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, and see how they are doing.” 37 Now Barnabas was determined to take with them John called Mark. 38 But Paul insisted that they should not take with...

@Episkopos There would have been no point in the wager with Satan had Job not have walked in holiness. Satan said 'Take everything away from him and he will sin' It failed. He did not sin by crying out to God to show him where he had sinned nor would he have done that if he was still sinning...

@Episkopos 10That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; 11If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. 12Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I...

On whether there were any saints in the OT, let us look for an example in Job the most wonderful writing to help those who are being trained in holiness along with the Prophets who heard God directly for their revelation.. Job's reaction to sudden and profound loss, was to accept it with grace...

I find that I am not in agreement with the thought that Paul wrote those words that he was not perfect, whilst he was not in the Spirit. Paul of all the saints, would know that being in the Spirit was vital to one who had so much authority in the church, and would have put off his writings till...

Yes I missed that part out thinking it was assumed. We then trust in Christ for our redemption. At that point we are given John 1:12 King James Version 12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Not yet sons of...

I'm not talking about our first encounter with Christ where we learn we are sinners and that God is real and loves us. You can call it salvation if you like. I don't. I am discussing the 'second' encounter where we are confronted with our sins, if indeed we have not quenched that work by the...
