Praying with you brother!

What was in the ark that Noah built?

"For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity. All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust...

Is not Jesus [or is He not to be] the Head of the Body of Christ? Are we, or are we to be, a part of that Body? Who is it that without hands is forming and preparing each part perfectly and putting together, you and me [hopefully] as some of the parts and Jesus as our Head? "And hath put all...

What or who is the Word of God? Do you believe that an unopened, unread Bible setting on the shelf in a person's home has ever divided soul and spirit, joint and marrow, or discerned the thoughts and intents of the heart? Consider the following verses: "Then the devil taketh him up into the...

One reason is that my own life and that of my family has changed over the years as a result of prayer. I believe God "... The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much." James 5:16 I do not believe we can 'save' a person by prayer but if our prayers fervent and we are righteous...

You are very welcome, sister. I do hope that some others are reading and praying but simply have not been posting to let you know it. I am praying also that others become more involved in prayer on this forum. Prayer really does change things, if only more people believed that.

@thelord's_pearl I am praying for both of you.

I believe that the scripture is a barren place needing to be quickened in a person by the Holy Spirit. Many people and probably most churches teach people to quench the Holy Spirit so all that is taught from the scriptures remains a dead message. When it is quickened within us it is Not...

Similar to the way churches train people to quench the Spirit of God,... no?

What better place for Jesus to lay his Head than upon the Body of Christ? "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 Who is the Body of Christ?

What is God's plan? What is the purpose of those who would attempt to bend the Word of God to their own profit? Why is it that some suppose that when they are working to fill their own treasure houses that they are walking toward the Light? How would we even know that someone's doctrine is...

Yes, there is the left hand of God being used as needed to accomplish his purposes... things done which are needful... But... we do not want to be the left hand of God or to be in His left hand at the end of our course, for to remain there is to go the way of the goats. "Woe unto the world...

Of course anyone who cannot see would be a very poor eye witness, right? How many people are walking around today completely blind to God and the things of God? But... then how many men are dogs? Here was a dog of great faith that worshipped Jesus: "Then came she and worshipped him, saying...

We should follow the road down which the Holy Spirit leads us. Or are we leading ourselves? Remember again what Jeremiah wrote: "O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps." Jerem 10:23 That was OT, but man has not changed a bit, not...

Flesh and blood, no, but what is happening to us? Where is the old man and where is the new man of us? Which one is decreasing as the other is increasing?

So then back to Pontius Pilate's question: What is truth? Pilate in the moment he asked the question almost certainly did not know the answer. Jesus told us that he was truth, but how well do any of us know Jesus? How clearly do we see his face? Not seeing his face, may we not still love him...

But anyone who had never received the Life which Jesus brought would not be either to the left or to the right. They would simply be dead dust back from whence they came with no more hope or anything else. They would be finally and completely dead. "For the living know that they shall die: but...

This one, I believe, speaks of children already able to purposely sin and they would not really be my concern here. These children are the ones, the ones with no knowledge or insufficient knowledge to make a real choice between God's Way and the ways of sin... not yet. Then consider these...

A few considerations here to help my position on this be understood... For a very long time I have leaning heavily to being what people would call an annihilationist. That is an important thing... Read now this verse penned by Solomon about 3,000 years ago: "Train up a child in the way he...
