"And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more...

@stunnedbygrace And those who saw Jesus and did not realize what they were seeing, what does that mean? "Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid...

So then is it not a greater or lesser mystery to different people? Perhaps even to some, due to what God has given them, it is no apparent mystery at all. One thing seems to be certain... to me at least: People who believe God are in different places in their walk with God. We should be very...

"Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." Matt 7:13-14

Praying!

Praying! "For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning" Psalm 30:5

Amen!

Amen!

May God richly bless you as you please Him, my friend!

"Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is." I John 3:2

Even so... just like the Israelites of old who continued back and forth between sacrifice and sin and sacrifice and sin. Where were most of them at the end of 40 years in the wilderness? God is no respecter of persons!

Don't forget about Romans 6:23 and Rev. 2:7...

Does Paul tell us here, only one big sin or 10 little sins or...? "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Rom 6:23

"And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit. And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep." Acts 7:59-60

Unless they have not endured to the end with Him!

Praying for you brother! "And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in...

When I was very young, I memorized that Creed. I did not own nor at that time had I ever read the Bible, but I did believe God. Today, I can quote very little from scripture verbatim although God helps me at times to find something that applies to a real situation. One exception to my inability...

If you stand firm on that and God accepts your heart who am I to say nay? But your response does raise a question... Are there two ways to God? Are there two foundations? "For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ."

But is the Creed of which you speak the foundation that will not fall in spite of flood and wind? "Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds...

More what? I simply gave a scriptural answer to the thread title question. They were the words of Jesus in the KJV. Would you prefer the same verses from the Douay Rheims translation? "Seek ye therefore first the kingdom of God, and his justice, and all these things shall be added unto you...
