    Grace is NOT unmerited favor!

    Grace brings victory over all sin. Or it is just more flesh power.

    Prayer needed for WIllie T

    I wonder if anyone has any contact with Willie to know how he is doing in keeping us updated. But prayer is what we have now.

    Why some are Blinded to the Word

    The word is Christ-centered but people are self-centered. So we tend to get things exactly wrong. We are in the wrong place trying to figure out a map that is for somewhere else. Confusion follows.

    Spiritual Gifts Anyone?

    I differentiate the gifts of God in 2 ways. Those that come to us as revelation, dreams, visions...basically visitation. Or even a gift given to us from God from a brother or sister. And then there are the gifts that come out of us from deep within. These are according to the Spirit's working in...

    Fear God or Presume acceptance

    Too often people want to save the thing that God wants crucified. When we see the cross as a threat...we become enemies of the cross and champions of the inherent rights of men. Molly coddling ensues.

    Fear God or Presume acceptance

    In the early church there were miracles, and all kinds of supernatural experiences...they are amply recorded in the bible. There were people who walked in the light of God's very presence. But you would have these to be a negative thing that hurts young believers who haven't had these kinds of...

    Fear God or Presume acceptance

    Yet our friend would say that indeed he does walk in the Spirit...at least on a rational level! ;)

    Fear God or Presume acceptance

    Word....and to the point. You really have a handle on the truth here. Building our castles in the sky only to have them thrown down when all is revealed.

    Forsaken or Sanctified in Mark15:34 Matthew 27:48?

    Actually the words of Jesus ..,..Eli Eli Lamah sabachthani...are a combination of Psalm 22:1 and Gen.22. with the ram caught in the thicket. A sevach is a thicket...and to be entangled is the verb form...sabach. So then Jesus said...My God MY God why have you entangled me? (not forsaken) And...

    IIIM

    What is biblical education. Men didn't invent God or even come together to write the bible. Better to go to God for the things of God and forsake the ways of men who lay everything out in a way THEY can understand it. Religion is religion. And men love to have it so. The bible is NOT a book of...

    And yet we are not to love the world...or the things of the world... So there is this paradox..

    The Impotent Church

    Jesus said..because you say you "see" your sin remains. If people kept it simple and didn't go claiming to know all truth...there would be no sin in it. So then the modern ideological doctrine is to claim you are all the way there...but now just leaning how to act like it. Exactly what the...

    The seven fold Spirit of God?

    Is.11:2 “The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him — the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of power, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD.”

    The seven fold Spirit of God?

    I see the seven number as being the "manifold" wisdom and power of God. They are facets of God. The Spirit of compassion...and judgment. The Spirit of wisdom and understanding. The Spirit of power and mercy. Sort of like that... :)
