    Hello, sister... "And he said, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak yet but this once: Peradventure ten shall be found there. And he said, I will not destroy it for ten's sake." Gen 18:32

    Genesis 40-50

    Consider carefully the relationship of Joseph to Pharoah and the relationship of Jesus to his Father: "Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou. And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over...

    Is the world under sin considering Jesus paid for it?

    If He is in us, what is His purpose within? Is it not to lead us, to direct us to do the work which is our part? If we quench the Spirit of God, what happens to growth? All of the parts of the Body of Christ must be subject to the Head and must be growing and working while it is day. "I must...

    Is the world under sin considering Jesus paid for it?

    The word I used was not corrupt but "corruptible". Adam and Eve were not made corrupt but clean and pure. They were corruptible but they need not have been corrupted. They effectively chose to corrupt themselves when they chose to disobey God. This may all be to the good when people understand...

    Being Faithful to God

    Carry on my friend walking toward the Light. We certain disagree in points, but I am not God.

    Is the world under sin considering Jesus paid for it?

    Of course, God is kind and He is merciful, but for what purpose did He make men as corruptible beings? Why did He not make us initially as incorruptible beings who, [every one of us] loved Him as He loved us? Why did He make us as beings who would be in situations where repentance would be...

    Being Faithful to God

    Rebirth equals the opportunity to make a better choice than our first carnal parents made. The Holy Spirit is the quickening [bringing to Life] Spirit, the Spirit that brings Life. Without the Spirit we are dead. When we quench the Spirit, we are effectively dead. Adam and Eve were Alive...

    Is the world under sin considering Jesus paid for it?

    @MatthewG What world are we in? What world did Jesus overcome? "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world." John 16:33 Why was Jesus no longer in the world before he went to the...

    Is the world under sin considering Jesus paid for it?

    Is there a light visible to every man? How many men choose to approach the light [Light] more closely? Perhaps very simply God loves life and hates death. Everyone born of woman has a little bit of life [see John 1:9] "That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the...

    Being Faithful to God

    No, I believe that probably Adam and Eve were closer to God than most believers I have known... that is before they disobeyed God. They could have been even closer still if they had partaken of the Tree of Life and left that other forbidden tree alone! We may now again have access to the Tree...

    Being Faithful to God

    The answer to your question was, yes. Are we better than Adam and Eve were before they disobeyed God? Do we not have the same choice to obey or disobey God now as they did then when they made the wrong choice? When a person quenches the Holy Spirit within, has he not made the same wrong choice...

    Being Faithful to God

    Yes, we can, but do we still have a choice in the matter?

    Being Faithful to God

    How did Adam and Eve disobey God? Did God desert them? Is God a respecter of persons?

    Being Faithful to God

    IF we walk in the Spirit! The reason Paul admonishes us to not quench the Spirit, is because we may still choose to lead ourselves instead of surrendering our all to Him! "To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. And...

    Being Faithful to God

    If we quench the Spirit, we are alone leading ourselves to our own destruction "Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me." John 15:4 "If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is...

    The way to the Father.

    Amen! And also... "All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him" Matt 11:27 And also... "No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me...

    Being Faithful to God

    If a man truly believes the Word of God, how is it that he is then able to live accordingly? Is it not because he is allowing the Holy Spirit to lead? How well can a man live for God all alone? If we quench the Spirit of God in us and lead ourselves, what must the result be?

    Being Faithful to God

    What does this mean to the "born again" person? "Quench not the Spirit." I Thess 5:19 What happens if a born again person doe quench the Holy Spirit within himself? What was it the natural children of Israel did to their God? "Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One...
