I am praying for you right now my friend. Surrender yourself to God in this moment and each moment. When you are seemingly overwhelmed by other ideas and thought which you know are not pleasing to God, ask Him to help you get rid of them and keep your mind and eyes on Him alone. Our God is able...

@al1998 I am praying for you sister. Strive to always keep those things first which Jesus told you to seek first. Do this as much as you can this without let up and God will handle the rest giving you what is needed according to Him: "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his...

And if it was written by men inspired by God to write, then even in the more complex riches of it, there would still be no confusion to anyone led by the Holy Spirit as he reads and studies.

While I certainly hear what you are saying, it is not so easy to disconnect them. Then again three times at least I have read the OP of my friend, @Hidden In Him without fully understanding the context. HIH, you need to try to separate the verses and/or paragraphs of your post to make it...

I am 60 miles north of OKC. While my father was always pentecostal as were his parents, my mother and her family were nothing connected with God. She loved the world I believe more than she loved my father and used the war as the means to get away. My wife was put in a Catholic orphanage in...

Yes, if the surrender is absolute and covers every possibility!

"He must increase, but I must decrease." John 3:30

But do you suppose we could surrender our way to get there? How many surrenders would it take? Help us dear Lord!

I was born in Oklahoma in 1943. When my father [a life-long Pentecostal] was sent to Japan as part of the U.S. military occupation there, my mother took me and my brother to California and married a Portuguese Catholic. All of my mother's side of the family came to California also in the 1940's...

No offence taken on the name. I simply did not make the connection... My name, Amadeus, is a leftover from my Catholic days. When it was time for my confirmation in the Catholic Church [10 years old?] one of the nuns had a book of names to help us choose for ourselves a confirmation name. I...

@TinyChristian99 I am praying that God help you find and interact easily with sincere loving Christian people!

So then when and if she stops using it, perhaps you will be allowed to take it on as your own! Then everyone will be happy, right?

Is it because you have said that these things are right or is it because you believe that the majority of those bearing the label of Christian would agree with them that anyone any where else in their walk with God should agree with them as well? Should my faith simply be patterned precisely...

So then all of those who read and/or study the scriptures without proper hermeneutics and understanding of the cultures of the people about which they read are forever lost to God? I certainly do not believe that! Forget about the Holy Spirit leading us into all Truth... Seemingly only Einstein...

I hope all of that is clear to you! You speak of the confusion in Hebrew typology, but I still miss your point in relation to the OP of this thread. The Hebrews may be, but God is not "the author of confusion".

@Blood Bought 1953 @Philip James If one is striving for God but stumbles and sins, will God strike down that man with no opportunity to repent? It is not like the man who plans out his sin presuming that he will have time to repent before he dies and the last opportunity is lost. God is wiser...

I absolutely understand! LOL!

This is a good way to handle it. I like to see that. I presumed, in error, that you, like so many, intended to take one side or the other. Some do it with the best of intentions, but some people have agendas that concern me. Give God the glory my friend!

You have mixed up two different women, it seems to me. There was Tamar, the daughter-in-law of Judah the fourth son of Jacob/Israel who played the harlot to seduce her father-in-law and produce an heir in the Messianic line to whom you seeming are referring with the "She is more righteous than...

I guess you were looking for a basis to discuss just who Jesus is. Is he God or just a special man called and used by almighty God to accomplish His purpose? Without a revelation from God, how would anyone know? People believe, but who knows? You provided this: And I responded with this...
