@Mayflower While I love the Book of Proverbs, I am unable to read posts which are single spaced with no paragraph or verse breaks used. Yes, I can force myself to focus and concentrate on it, but the end result for me is overwhelming in the wrong direction and would further limit my...

Consider this: "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." Matt 5:6 If you are only curious or only interested in pursuing your own agenda [as for example putting someone down who is unable to answer your questions or sooth your doubts] you will...

Lots of people live in confusion. I cannot alone remove someone else's confusion. There are many scriptures that speak about this confusion of men. Both Babylon [kingdom/empire] and Babel [Tower of] from the Old Testament mean "confusion". Man living in his world of men without God is confused...

Thank you for the invite for a PM discussion but no thank you. I am overwhelmed with pressing issues at the moment. But... I would be interested in listening to sermons on the subject as I have time so I can move forward at my own pace... that is if you have an easy link to them.

Many promises are conditional. We do not start or continue our walk with God based on absolute knowledge about everything, but rather by faith. "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that...

I mean what God means by it... something 'good' for us. Since God alone is good, as I understand it, that means Him putting a bit of Himself or from Himself on you.

Be careful when quoting scripture like that you clearly understand what you are saying and what a verse may mean: I do not love my wife for than I love God. While I am willing to help you if I can, you are not God! "Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave...

I will be here to listen but it may take a while for me to answer as my wife has just gotten up and her needs have a priority. If I do not answer immediately don't despair. Remember that I am not God. You can speak to Him directly at any time...

"Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord. Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts." Zech...

We are to live for God by faith, which sometimes means we do not have a clear answer other than this is how, according to Him, it needs to be. "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Heb 11:1

And then after that first event we may have read this: "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." Rom 8:28 And then for a long while we may have been scratching our head and asking God: What does that mean?

I am here, but I am not God! What help do you seek? "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Matt 6:33 "Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts." James 4:3

Certainly, but not all promises are what people want to receive!

Welcome to the forum! Be blessed of God as you read through what is posted here! Don't want to be blessed or don't believe that it can happen? I believe that you are missing something important.

What is God's purpose for mankind? Do you suppose that it is for our flesh to be always comfortable during our allotted time on planet Earth?

One not very nice kind of beast, a rat, walking/working among us or within us: "I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts." Ecc 3:18 "She [Wisdom] hath killed her beasts; ..." Prov 9:2...

@ShineTheLight Praying that many more people will hear His voice and follow His lead!

But the end is not yet! Give God the glory!

Stand firm in what you believe is from God with your heart and mind always open to Him... Unfortunately many people have their own ATs [Absolute Truths] and act as if God works only in those ATs and that those ATs are IT. Give God the glory!

@Truman the Levite Give God the glory!
