    What is the High Calling in Christ?

    I hear what you are saying although this is not accurate. We are called to walk with the Lord in Zion....which is an ongoing walk in the Spirit. The third heaven is for a temporary visit to the throne room of God. The throne room of God is for He that is holy holy holy. The 3 heavens are the...

    My New Podcast: Spiritual Christianity

    We pay the price to get what He paid for. That price is everything WE have to get everything HE has. The cross is not just about Jesus. Paul said "I glory in the cross". Did Paul glory in the death of Jesus? Of course not! He gloried in the power of the cross on himself that liberates his inner...

    What is the High Calling in Christ?

    You are stuck between testaments in your understanding. First comes the physical, then the spiritual. You have fully misunderstood the scale of the calling that is in Christ. (and pushed into an afterlife) Also, I am a Binatarian...like the early Christians. :) The Trinity idea denies the power...

    What is the High Calling in Christ?

    Hey Lizbeth! :) Good post. The extra oil is the full measure of grace that must be purchased at the throne of grace. being born again is only a sample...or an aravon...downpayment...given to us in order to sample what costs us EVERYTHING to have. Think the parable of the pearl or the field. :)

    What is the High Calling in Christ?

    What you are missing here is the scale of the calling of God. Does your church look like what we read in Acts 2? How many believers do you know who are... 1. walking as Jesus walked, holy and without sin? 2. killed for the Lord's sake? and... 3. What have you seen of Zion where God dwells...

    What is the High Calling in Christ?

    You argue for arguments sake without any truth attached. Many are called but few are chosen. The calling is now not later. You can't post verses because your ideas are your own...and you are simply flooding these pages with nonsense. That's why you have been on ignore. If you want to do more...

    What is the High Calling in Christ?

    This is ridiculous. We are to make our calling and election sure...that doesn't mean we are to commit suicide. A common error in todays' religious community is to push everything into an "afterlife". We see this with pagan religions with the idea of a "Valhalla" afterlife after living the way...

    What is the High Calling in Christ?

    In your scheme Paul wanted everyone to die? To be conformed to the full stature of Christ. The same goes for seeking first the kingdom. Are we to seek to die? Now let's drop the carnal way of seeing things for the spiritual entering into Christ to be where He is and walk as He walked. The...

    What is the High Calling in Christ?

    If you mean being raptured into Christ to be where He is at the present time then yes. If you mean a future physical taking away, then no. Paul was called to walk in the full stature of Christ...and he wrote to the churches to encourage them to seek the face of God for a walk in resurrection life.

    My New Podcast: Spiritual Christianity

    True...but then again, it is sometimes beneficial to expand our vocabulary where more precise meanings are concerned. :) Take for instance the word "imputation"...now that is a word that people should have looked up before settling on a meaning that is opposite to it. The prevalence in...

    How do you like the idea of putting music behind the verses readings? Is it distracting or helpful?

    My New Podcast: Spiritual Christianity

    The second podcast is already recorded but my technical guy is very busy. Maybe in a few weeks? I think the podcasts will get better as we are still learning how to do them. ;) My aim is one a month once we get going...hopefully 5 or 6 by Christmas. In the distant future I'm hoping to do one...

    My New Podcast: Spiritual Christianity

    The next step after being born of the Spirit, is our own to make. If we draw near to God, He will draw near to us. "Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double minded." James 4:8 The Christian walk is on a whole other...
