    What is the meaning of "forever" (H5769 olam)?

    [as God defines forever rather than as man does] “And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. Gen 3:15 “He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings are they on the throne...

    Uzzah and the Arc of the Covenant

    Even Solomon who wrote the proverb I cited as God inspired him to do so, later in his own life effectively despised what he had written to pursue his own ways. He chose to follow the ways of his own heart in place of the Way of God. Not very wise at all in the end... no longer fearing God. As...

    Is God omnipotent?

    “I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee” Job 42:2 “God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God.” Psalm 62:11 “Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.” Psalm 147:5

    What is the new nature?

    Hold fast to the Lord, my friend, and allow Him via the Holy Spirit to lead you. There are always men available to lead us, and some of them may be themselves led by the Spirit, but, I believe, that each us must find our own specific pathway, the one which the leads to where God is directing us...

    The False vs True Gift Of Tongues

    Remember dear sister in Christ that... Ro 11:29 ...the gifts and calling of God are without repentance. And... 2ti 1:6 Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.

    The False vs True Gift Of Tongues

    The final must be encountered by the lead of the Holy Spirit. This too is problematic for one who is not always open to God. My own solution was found in the following words: Lu 14:9 And he that bade thee and him come and say to thee, Give this man place; and thou begin with shame to take the...

    Stepping into God's Purpose For Your Life

    Thank you for sharing this, sister. It was really a good message which, I believe, would be beneficial to anyone's walk with God. Give God the glory!

    Perfection, when will we gain it?

    Perfect as God is perfect. How far am I from it? Help me dear Lord! Help us dear Lord! Mt 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

    What is the new nature?

    I am also with you and @Big Boy Johnson on this point. Each person must seek God for himself and some of them in their sincerity God may redirect.

    FUNNIES

    Even in below zero [Fahrenheit] weather, I have yet to see my son-in-law put on a jacket or sweater. He did switch from shorts to long pants while I have been wearing layers of clothing on all parts of my body.

    Peter the Rock?

    Very good summation my friend of the wrong things upon which too many people do focus! Am I guiltless? I wish I could say that I always was. I continue to strive and to surrender to God, asking, seeking and knocking...

    How to Test the Spirits?

    Too many of them may be doing as you say, but I see generally among Christian groups too many who are focusing on the rewards promised rather than on God Himself. Heaven and ever lasting Life may be rewards to receive but if we put too much emphasis on them, what happens to our relationship with...

    The False vs True Gift Of Tongues

    The baby would be all speaking in tongues. That which should be thrown out would be any false or misleading tongues. Keep that which of God and dispose of the rest. If one cannot tell the difference consider the tares and wheat here: Mt 13:27 So the servants of the householder came and said...

    The False vs True Gift Of Tongues

    Consider also the saying of not throwing out baby with the bath water. I was with the Oneness, Jesus Only tongue talkers [UPC and a couple of other groups] for 11 years, but I left them finally in 1987, primarily because of their insistence that one must speak in tongues in order to finally be...

    How to Test the Spirits?

    Many people like the idea of having received the promise and never having to be concerned again about living just so or better for God. They want to have their cake [a salvation that cannot be lost] and eat it too [having fun, whatever that means in all the ways of men now]... What is it that...

    How to Test the Spirits?

    Should we be concerned with what men may think about us or with what God does think about us? One day at the time, yes, one day at the time.... giving God all of the glory!
