    Will Trump seek asylum in Israel and Build the 3rd Temple?

    I think we should consider whether it is referring to both the church in the end, as well as Jerusalem in the end of the old covenant. One thing God has spoken, two things have I heard. To the Jew FIRST, then the Gentile. Seems to fit both, but you would have to look at historical sources to...

    Is there a higher walk for believers in Christ?

    A thin fine line.....but a world of a difference. Romans 4 is very consistent and it says blessed is the man whose sins are covered and to whom righteousness is imputed WITHOUT WORKS, as others have been trying to tell you. It couldn't be more clear what imputed means. Except for those who...

    Is there a higher walk for believers in Christ?

    I'm praying for you Epi, that you will accept and receive what Christ has done for you. He loves you. And then maybe other things will fall into proper place. Yes, it is sometimes just like a tweek, because the difference between flesh and spirit is only a thin fine line, so to speak.

    Is there a higher walk for believers in Christ?

    Your fruits are showing again. Are they good fruits? My only desire is to help you, not insult and belittle you. I advise you to lay your reasoning on the altar and ask God to sift it. Whenever I have done this He has been so faithful to answer....it takes willingness though....and can take...

    Is there a higher walk for believers in Christ?

    What don't you understand about "He calleth those things which be not as though they were."? It means what it says.. However.....now that He has been so indescribably gracious to us to do that....what manner of persons ought we now to be and what should our conversation be and how should we...

    Is there a higher walk for believers in Christ?

    You will need to take it up with the Lord, Epi if you think His reasoning is faulty. It is HIS word, not mine. Actually it really is faulty, thankfully for us.....foolishness to the carnal mind. It isn't that we don't still need to be running the race so as to win it, and be apprehending that...

    Is there a higher walk for believers in Christ?

    And as the subject of imputation has come up a lot and it is likewise very important foundational understanding of the gospel, the following must be pointed out which irrefutably proves what GOD means by the word “imputed” biblically: Rom 4:16-22 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by...

    Is there a higher walk for believers in Christ?

    You said that believers are not holy, unless we are walking in what you're calling a higher walk. I'm refuting that by pointing out that scripture says if the first fruits are holy the whole lump is holy. Firstfruits is an offering that the Israelites brought to the priests who offered it on...

    Is there a higher walk for believers in Christ?

    If the firstfruits are holy the whole lump is holy. Jesus is our firstfruit offering (for those who believe and have received Him), and He was/is holy...so what does that mean for us? Which you deny.

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    Well that's the nature of spin unfortunately....how left wing media likes to spin things. And I think there is legitimate reason to be concerned about the potential for far right people or groups hijacking what should just be a conservative movement (in my opinion).

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    Only Jesus can bring true liberation. Human nature is human nature everywhere, even in Canada. Right now the left wing media is making hay because the Alberta premier used the word "crosshairs" (in a figurative sense). I hope their fears are not founded. Because we who are in Christ can't...

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    Oh believe me I have and have repented of it, lol. I have had a few choice words for our Prime Minister which I shouldn't have let escape my lips. He is just a floundering lost soul doing what lost souls do. Just as I once was. How can I hate him and at the same time be concerned for his...

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    The battle that goes on between good and evil in this world is just the smoke and mirrors to distract us from our real mission. Everything to do with this world is a MIXTURE of good and evil.....very much including politics. Satan's kingdom, this world, is divided against itself. Don't let...

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    Facts are often hard to get at, especially these days. In the end maybe only God knows the facts about some things and all we often have are our opinions and educated guesses and personal biases. I'm not willing to take a stand based on my opinions and educated guesses and biases, and I find...

    Born Again or Christian? Is there a difference and what is your biblical support ?

    Having a bible and reading it....is not the same thing as understanding what is written there. And then there is the issue of personal direction, instruction, guidance in one's life. As well as walking in the spirit. We need the Holy Spirit, all the time. The Holy Spirit is Christ's spirit...

    Born Again or Christian? Is there a difference and what is your biblical support ?

    I guess you must be a cessationist. But scripture says the Holy Spirit will lead us into all truth.

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    And history too. This generation has forgotten the lessons of history. Here in Canada the young are being taught that human nature is essentially good....yikes.

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    Not really, not unless it happens to be someone's job. But again, the issue is where our hearts are....where our hopes are...what we are trusting in. Are we trusting in a man? Are we trusting in the arm of flesh? What I'm seeing is a church that has in general put down its stakes in this...

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    Israel was apostate for most of her history, sadly. Which was written down for our ADMONITION. In her best days she was a type and shadow of the kingdom of God, not of a worldly kingdom. David was a type and shadow of Christ...and notice he wasn't enthroned until after King Saul, a false...

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    I was thinking politics is a carnal weapon. And the best spiritual weapon of all, is the gospel, the sword of the Spirit, God's word. Like I said political opinions is one thing.......but oh, please let us guard our hearts! Choose we this day who we will serve, and have our hopes above.
