    I’m in a strange place: very conservative, but not Christian

    People tend to confuse being soulish with being spiritual. There us a soulish spirituality that is really not spiritual at all. And then there is a demonic spirituality...worshiping trees and such. Stone age stuff. No, the modern spirituality is soulish...feeling connected to nature, animals...

    Build your life on Jesus Christ.

    The devil deceives the whole world. "And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceives the whole world: he was cast out into the earth," Rev. 12:9 Jesus said "There goes the devil and he has nothing in Me." "I will no more speak much with you...

    Build your life on Jesus Christ.

    It means a life built in the eternal reality of the kingdom of God. We live in a temporal world that is actually only a simulation of reality. We are only here for a short time...to learn how to love and fit into an eternal realm. To abide in Christ means to be where He is...in Zion (in the...

    Build your life on Jesus Christ.

    Is the OP really about building a life on Jesus Christ or on the Bible?

    God the Holy Spirit

    Because it is a mystery. What the institutional establishment finally decided on was what gave them control over the assembly. Making the Holy Spirit to be in name only rather than in power contradicts the Bible as to the purpose of the Holy Spirit in the world. Paul preached not only in word...

    Religious Liberty!

    My faith is apostolic in nature...not based on the traditions of men. I encountered the Lord personally...and was baptized in the Spirit in my bedroom. There is NO church organization that can claim dibs on a direct relationship with the Lord. :) The kingdom of God is not of this world..neither...

    Religious Liberty!

    Man made religion hates the liberty that is available in Christ. "Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty." 2 Cor. 3:17

    is doing sexual things with a boyfriend/girlfriend sin...

    Some of our children (not all) also made a commitment to not kiss until their wedding day. Our youngest son is about to be married to a wonderful lady...and they have made that commitment. They have been engaged now for over a year and are to be married next month. They have known each other for...

    Equal to Christ!

    You are missing the Holy Spirit and the liberty that comes with having an eternal life force to live by. Doesn't it say...you have no need for anyone to teach you? But it is the Spirit of truth that guides a person into the knowledge of the truth. 1 John 2:27 "But the anointing which you have...

    Equal to Christ!

    Who told Paul that it was Jesus He encountered on the road to Damascus? Was it by checking with the local padre? Was it by comparing his experience with a creed?

    Equal to Christ!

    All of these things are works of the flesh. People tend to be religious. Just look at all the religions of the world. Men want to have control over the mysteries of God. But trying to formulate a perfect "creed" is a fools errand. No one can reduce God's way in Christ to a formula. If you knew...

    Sanctions Kill The West, Not Russia

    You are simply a victim of Western propaganda. What Putin really said goes along these lines..."Anyone who doesn't miss the glory of the Soviet Union has no heart. Anyone who wants to see a return of the Soviet Union has no head." Do you realize that patriotism is not exclusively an American...

    How do you put on Christ?

    This is a spiritual topic whereby there is more lack of understanding than is supposed. The truth is that it is when we "put off" the carnal outer man that we can come to God to be further clothed with Christ. So we come to Him broken and naked (in the spiritual sense) in a full surrender of...

    My new book is out! "The Sum of All Possibilities in Christ"

    Thank you. It was a lot of work. I think I burned out twice during the time of writing...and then editing (which took 4 months). The whole enterprise took over a year and a half. It's hard to believe that I actually got through it. :)

    My new book is out! "The Sum of All Possibilities in Christ"

    Fresh off the press! My new book is out. This Covid time was beneficial to me personally as I felt constrained to write a book about God's ways in general and the way of God in Christ in particular. This is a big book. I waited to announce it pending access to the eBook version....for the sake...

    Wait upon the LORD.

    Amen. Be strong in the Lord brother. It's funny you talking about writing a book. I was very hesitant to write a book, although during this Covid period I felt constrained to do so. So I did. It took a year and a half. The result...after much labour...is a biggish book called "The Sum of All...

    All the places in Ukraine that the Russians have now in their possession are being reduced to rubles. o_O

    Sanctions Kill The West, Not Russia

    This war is about stopping Western expansionism. Putin was maneuvered into this war by Western bullying. The US would have gone to war much earlier if their borders were threatened. Look out for hypocrisy here. Don't be fooled by the media. The US wanted this war...and are enjoying it for the...
