Is faith finished yet in me or in any believer replaced completely by the knowledge which God has, which Jesus as man manifested? Within me there is faith, but there is also knowledge given to me by God. As the old man decreases [if he does] and as the new man increases [if he does] in me is...

Who is able to make sense out of it all? Who is able to open up those things which have been sealed? "And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things? And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the...

Aye, and it not only those who do not even claim the name of Jesus who walk in error. So many, [or so it seems to me] take hold of his name and/or call themselves Christian and show little or nothing in themselves and lifestyle that resembles the Jesus we should all be seeing in the scriptures...

Joining you in prayer!

Many thanks to you @rockytopva

"Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good." Rom 12:21 "And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God." Mark 10:18 "And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible"...

Moving on toward perfection means eliminating those things which when followed lead us to sin... Jesus never sinned, but being tempted he had these same attractions to sin that we did. "For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not...

In the groups where I attended for many years up until 2018, many of the ministers and other members have lengthy studies in place covering the principle doctrines I separated with numbers. From there can we move or be moved toward perfection? Can we become overcomers as Jesus was an overcomer...

Thank you my friend!

Has the movement from milk to meat begun when the principle doctrines are in place and the journey toward the perfection is in progress? "Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again [1] the foundation of repentance from dead...

Praying for her now!

@theefaith Your whole thread was too long to detail answers to it all when you have already effectively your own interpretation sas per, I suppose, your Church, so I have answered only in part and that for the benefit of any others reading here. Jesus, the Messiah or Christ, is the Head. The...

I believe that God has order which includes a hierarchy but I cannot insert Peter or even the apostles into it. Paul describes it here: "But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God." I Cor 11:3 But then...

Yes, but not only apostles! "And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the...

Are you reading into that verse things that are not there? What saith it? "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost" Matt 28:19 How are any able to teach? Who is it then that draws any man to our Lord? "No man can...

But then for any who are now His sons...? "Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is." I John 3:2

How is it that any of us can ever more than this publican? "Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as...

Praying for you sister! You need to use all that God has given you and never mind what others think about it. I have had my down times, but what the enemy wants is for us to get frustrated and to quit on God. Just because we apparently cannot see or hear or touch God sometimes is not a reason...
