Have you ever tried a long partial fast? In desperate situations it always helps me to fast and pray. I came to the understanding after starting my first fast that starving the body feeds the spirit. The truth of the bible was opened up to me at that time. I believe God hears my prayers when...

I would like to discuss God's role in important decisions in life. What is the depth of his involvement, are there limits to how far he is willing to influence your decisions. Suppose you reach a fork in the road of life and the paths in all directions seem equally good. Proverbs 16:9...

I said no then changed my mind. Until Jesus saw the Father he exercised child-like faith. Until this time he meet the terms of the Hebrews 11:1 definition of faith: "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." And Jesus did see the Father according to John...

I still will say God bless America, but not because I think we deserve to be blessed. I say it because America needs God's help if there is to be any hope of pulling out of this situation that we have gotten ourselves into. The way I see it, our choices themselves are going to be a curse on...

Lets see now, fear is a spirit not from God and is therefore from the enemy. This is confirmed by reports I have heard of people who have encountered demons and experienced dread. Yet fear is an integral part of this fallen world, you can't even cross traffic without the fear of being struck...

I think we over-estimate our importance in the universe. Demons are greater creations than humans, but still have to live by the rules. I'm sure God consider's it a crime for a demon to assault one of his children. The advice I have for Templar is know your a Child of God and remember that...

Horror movies are created to insight fear. People must watch horror movies because of the excitement that their fear causes. If a movie fails to insight fear is it still a horror movie? Perhaps to some it is only entertaining for its action. More over, Is it unhealthy to use fear as a source...

I've been there for a wedding and saw the street preachers there. They were just standing there in the street holding a big white cross. Their presence was in stark contrast to the drunken debauchery elsewhere on the street. This city ordinance needs to be repealed. There also needs to be a...

You can do anything, but the question is will it be beneficial? If you’re going to preach to muslims it may be beneficial to have knowledge of the lies your encounter. If you’re looking for insight into your own christianity don't bother looking in the koran. The spirit behind it is against...

Does Ekul7291 believe Paul is a genuine Spirit filled apostle of Jesus? Paul wrote many of the scriptures that disagree with the heresy of sinless perfection.

From the description I thought, "What preacher would say these words? Hell is a horrible place and no christian should ever say these things." But by the context he is saying the same thing that's exemplified in 1 Corinthians 5:5. Implicitly supporting sin can only hurt the fellowship as a...

Where is it written in the law of Moses if your father is not a Jew then you a not a Jew? By tradition Judaism uses maternal descent to determine Jewish status.

I was wrong. No political movement can be devoid of faith. There needs to be something to tickle in the ears of the constituency.

Here's how classical liberalism has morphed into social liberalism. Faith in yourself, society, and God are required in classical liberalism. When you entitle yourself towards equality you no longer need faith in anything. So it has digressed into a system that doesn't require faith. What I...

This is just a thought, but perhaps this has to do with reconciliation of property. Specifically God's dominion over the parts of the earth that he gave to man. His property will be restored once Adam's descendants are gone.

I'll side with the Apostle Paul on this subject. Respectfully, LForrest

No, it is the flesh that causes one to sin. And your flesh stays with you even after salvation, so it is still there opposing The Spirit. Galatians 5:17-18 17 For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to...

Obviously a false teaching. Judging by actions is imperfect; God looks at the heart, and his is the only judgement that matters. This teaching can only lead to a legalistic fear of sin. We shouldn't fear that which Jesus has conquered. Rather love God and be lead by The Spirit.

I am all for personal liberty, so long as another's liberty isn't violated. I don't see liberty being violated by state recognition of a same sex union. If only the issue were this simple I wouldn't oppose it. I dread the decline of morals in society, they are being pushed further and further...
