    How do we attain unity?

    I think I can see what you are saying. Are you saying "Peace and unity at any price" Which, as the young man said to Elijah is " death in the pot"... Maybe we go back to the basics of what made us fall in love with God and then find out first what we DO have in common and what DOES unify us...

    How do we attain unity?

    You started quoting at verse 11 ...go back to verse 3. " 3 "Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace." Does that not imply that we HAVE it...we just need to KEEP what we have. ;) Maybe we just don't nurture what God says that we already have? Or is that too far of a...

    And Be Not Conformed To This World:

    Never heard it put like that before. = "looking INTO Jesus." Good one. :) John 19 5 "Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!" Wow what a prophesy and he didn't even know what he'd said!! And we all know the words...

    For By His Grace Ye Are Saved

    Grace indeed. We would not even be here if it were not via His Grace! Grace to live by, grace to work, grace to understand what we read of Him in the word .. we enter in, by grace we are saved through faith.... Grace to live and also faith to die with. I did say to my hubby yesterday when we...

    The Upward Path

    Sometimes we fear that if we let our tears fall it will tear down our strength and make us weaker and smaller. For a long time, I assumed that the weight of my tears would undermine my strength! But I’ve learned that releasing my sorrows to God doesn’t lead to weakness...instead, it generates...

    My daughter

    Lovely to see you, you have been missed on here. But, so sorry about WHY you are here.... :( I was an asthmatic for 30 yrs, you sure don't want that knocking on your door. YES, we will be praying that this passes. We have lots of smoke in the area from forrest fires....many you have fires a...

    Now don't get too humble here . :D No, not sand in the gears...that would stop us dead in our tracts. More like- 'iron sharpeneth iron' .... :)

    Gods Standard is...

    Think of Naomi in the book of Ruth. She was ( via marriage) the how many great's in the linage of King David whom Jesus descended from. Naomi had lost her husband and two sons...and took Ruth daughter in law..to (finally) meet Boaz and hence the blood-line of Jesus. Naomi's name means...

    Pat, I have know him a long while now...and I can assure you he is. :) He just wont be put in any 'box' of what Christian's "expect" people to do and be. He does have a unique ministry here. And, what I say means nothing really...but if you trust Amadeus spiritual judgement at all , well he...

    Logical and Dialectical Reasoning in Scripture

    I'm so sad John... :( And how hard for Daniel to see his life's work turn to ashes. I agree with Mark. It sounds like they have made their choice. They want another king, any king but God. We have seen this patten over and over throughout our 50+ years. A dear Pastor friend of ours came home...

    Iv'e always believed that there were three, the two Mary's and Salome. ( Or was it Joanna I forget) I remember checking it out when I was a 'young thing'. And found it to be three of them. I believe Mary was indeed special, ( who couldn't be after being chosen by God to carry the Saviour of...

    Discernment vs. condemnation judgments

    I have often wondered about the man cut off from the church in 1 Cor 4 ... If it is the very same 'him' mentioned in 2 Cor 2 . My leaning is that it most probably IS. :- 4 "For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but...

    Do you mean her name, or what she represented, or what? ;) I think it was in post #192. ↑Aspen said- Hmm I love Mary and all, but she did not perfect Jesus.....remember he was with God from the beginning and therefore perfect from the beginning. I responded with:- "No I did not mean...

    What's the weather like where you are?

    @Butterfly @Pearl @Nancy It is the peace of the place as much as the wild beauty, that grabbed me. This vid is only 5 mins long...but you'd get the "feel" in just a minute or two...to know what I mean. It started out as a family Barn/House back in the 1400's...added to over the centuries....

    What's the weather like where you are?

    Nice to hear from England on here :) @Pearl and @Butterfly I always loved June in England. Anyone visited The Great Dixter? Not too far from Hastings...maybe over the Kent boarder. I love the gardens in that old house...both the wild ones and the manicured ones. I always wanted my girls...
