    is doing sexual things with a boyfriend/girlfriend sin...

    Interesting! I'm sure God made all this clear to Adam and Eve!

    Love not the world, nor the things of the world...

    The things of the world are faithlessness ie, relying on ones achievements and judging according to the lack of them. At heart I'm a self indulging hedonist. That might shock some...it even shocks me......however, there is another principle which wars with this fundamental inclination.....and...

    is doing sexual things with a boyfriend/girlfriend sin...

    It's easy and commonly done....we superimpose our understanding of God onto these ancient people......and then wonder why we can't reconcile certain attitudes/points of view they held and behaviours they engaged. Fact is, the influence of the nations around them was endemic and many of their...

    Greater Things Than These - John 14

    and how will one distinguish demons working miracles under the cover of a pseudo faith and those done by God's spirit? ...the supernatural will fool many.

    Greater Things Than These - John 14

    and what was the work of the Lord?. I find an answer in the story of the woman at the well. In particular how he answered his disciples when they brought him food. John 4:4-26 When we hear the words 'greater things' there is an assumption of there being 'magic'....miracles if you like, but...

    Is it possible?

    a drowning man resisting his rescue will drown. If he does not resist, he will be saved

    Think about it: "No man can buy or sell"

    Is it true that love holds no record of wrongs?? 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 ?.....or have we got something wrong in how we hear? When we read this do we hear, you are loved as long as you do what I want? Do we hear, if you don't dance to my tune I'll be hoping mad ? etc..... So which is it? If there...

    "IF I BE LIFTED UP FROM THE EARTH" - Denominationalism, Congregationalism, And Pluralism

    I find being spoken at difficult to take seriously....in fact I don't. I see the 'speaking at' phenomena an attempt to force ones view......a principle I have been guilty of and one I have come to find repugnant on various levels.....however, just as God has been patient with me so I am obliged...

    I am saved?

    yada yada, yada yada, yada yada....did I say yada....oh man, I've said soooo much!

    Peripheral neuropathy and "wet" feeling

    I think you need to come to the land down under and hang out with this brown duck. Maybe the medication free, illness absent, lotsa sunshine, early morning beach walk and workout plus a fresh food diet will rub off on ya......you can help me collect seaweed for fertiliser or other interesting...

    What does your username mean?

    Spiritual Warfare

    No more grovelling!.....we are declared as royalty.....will we think and behave like we are in the pig pen?

    Anti-reformers month

    oddly, or perhaps not so oddly, we are all tainted with the sinner badge which ultimately means, none is righteous, no not one......therefore, any claim to being righteous by virtue of being a son/daughter of Adam is spurious. The religious mindset is lost in the delusion of 'sinlessness'...

    Explain Revelations So Even I Can Understand It

    The book of Revelation is the story of how the the forces of light and darkness have been and are playing out and influencing the course of history..... primarily since the resurrection but not exclusively. Revelation is much misinterpreted because its objective is not understood (ie...

    Anti-reformers month

    'I've not come to save the righteous but sinners'...Jesus. I s'pose the righteous don't need reformation....they've always been right.
