We are not so far apart in the purpose of our hearts. Many years ago, in the very first assembly I attended regularly after my departure from active Catholicism, one time they organized a door knocking Saturday where everyone went out and knocked on people's doors. I admit that I was absolute...

Our time, all of it, belongs to God, sister! Using it properly is, I believe, essential to our stewardship here. What, if anything, will a poor steward inherit? What will he have when for him there is no more time? I read and study my three Bibles, but I also both listen and talk to God as...

My response was in response to your question: I believe that God certainly does want us to know the Truth. Not many people really want what God wants no matter what label [Protestant, Catholic or other] they carry as supposed believers. They usually, [from what I have seen], seem to be more...

I believe that people mostly follow others, be they family members, or church ministers, or friends, or respected/revered persons in secular activities [e.g. movie stars, sports figures, politicians]. For a person to actually change from that initial focus in his 'church'... unless it is move...

Thank you sister!

Well, the tests were run today, and I saw the doctor. The nodule in my lung has not changed in size but its density or firmness has increased substantially. If it is cancer it will have to be removed. There are a couple of other things it might be the doctor mentioned. They have scheduled me for...

It seems to me that you along many others... too often follow established traditions rather than simply reading the words as they are written and/or seek openly from God whatever He is willing to provide. Is that not the example we see in most of the Pharisees and other natural children of...

Did you still not understand what I have been saying with those verses I quoted? Where was it that Jesus had to lay his head when he walked around planet Earth 2000 years ago as the son of man? There was then no Body of Christ! Until believers could be properly prepared and fitted into the...

Really? Then what does this mean? "Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you." John 6:53 Is there grace without Life?

Jesus is the Truth [John 14:6]. Jesus is the Word of God [Rev 19:13]. The scripture, unopened and unread is an unquickened Body without Life until consumed and quickened by the Holy Spirit in a person. Then so quickened it is the Word of God. Without that quickening, any person has only the...

Yea or nay? Why when more according to your response is needed so that you understand? Below was my response: So, then who is both head and foundation of the Body of Christ... that is to say, the Church? "For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and...

"And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head" Matt 8:20

As I already said, I was hopeful... You have offered nothing that would change where I am. "Where there is no vision the people perish..."

Thank you it was very good. Hope yours was good as well! You made my point using your own slant. You would say I used mine. Here I consider what God inspired Solomon to write 3000 years ago: "Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts." Prov 21:2 This is...

Well, I did ask...! That is where your faith is, I would guess, for you have gone along with what men have decided before. You presume they all were being led by the Spirit of God in all of their declarations? Did the Spirit of God tell you that one on one? No need to answer further as I am...

If it had been changed as you say, who would that affect ultimately other than the perpetrators? Could one hungering and thirsting after the righteousness of God be lost because of anyone else's errors or wrongful purposes? I do not believe so. "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst...
