We were extremely young in the Lord and had it been up to my wife alone we would have been gone from there long before it finally came. The pastor wanted us there because we were paying tithes and at the time I had one of the higher secular salaries in the church, which was more money in his...

@farouk What time will you expect us? Should we bring anything to add to the meal?

When my wife and I were very young together in the Lord in our very first non-Catholic church, a brother introduced us to those very verses in the 1970's [we came to the Lord in April 1976] and as a result we decided against a Christmas tree in our home for our family. It became the bone of...

And consider that when Moses asked to see God he was denied a vision of His face. The man was placed in a protected place and was allowed to see the "back parts" of God, but definitely Not His face [Exodus 33:23]. But a greater immediate hope than Moses had in that moment, we have now, do we...

Yes, "face to face"!

By this world, you should consider it as when He takes over the world of Nancy rather than the world called planet Earth. Nancy may Live indeed, by the Word of God in her, but planet Earth can only be now what men make of it, which these days is not usually a 'good' thing, is it?

Your OP brought to my mind this verse: "But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." Matt 4:4 We can certainly eat bread and even read the Bible, but being too logical and making too many decisions based...

What is 'form'? What is it a man sees in a woman or that she sees in him in the body of flesh alone that attracts them to one another? That is the flesh and that certainly was my first attraction to my own wife. That alone was insufficient. Five years later with two toddlers and a desire on both...

When man died, [Adam and Eve] something was left. What was it? Then again what was there in man before the disobedience? The ideal was there, the persons, who could and did communicate directly with God. Also was there the possibility to go against what God had told them not to do... to eat of...

Most certainly Jesus has the answers on this question and many things. So then the question to ask might be: How well do we know Jesus? How well do we understand what Jesus understands? Satan exists, but who is he? How well should we want to know him? Would it not be better to forget what we...

This was an interesting discussion which came again to my attention. I have copied post #1 here, but a whole lot more is between #1 and #138. There are newer people here who may have some additional edifying input on the subject: @bbyrd009 @pia bbyrd009 said: satan appears as an angel of light...

@WaterSong Thank you for posting this. I had to stop it part way through and invite my wife in to watch it as well. Provided a great insight into where so many have been and are today!

Even so! Back in the beginning of this thing, my wife, a retired seamstress, made few dozen reusable masks for us so that we could change them at least once them daily and then wash them along with our laundry. How long should a person wear any of his clothing before washing it? I would guess it...

And so let us then be converted becoming as he was when he was given by God to us in Bethlehem 2000 years ago and when he accomplished his work in his own flesh on Calvary several years later. "And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not...

When were we converted? I was baptized at age 6 in the Catholic Church and I know that was my first remembered experience with God. Was that a conversion? I received the baptism of the Holy Ghost when I was 32 years old in a Pentecostal church. Was that a conversion? I was drawn out of that...

"The hoary head [old age, gray-headed] is a crown of glory, if it be found in the way of righteousness." Prov 16:31

As @Michiah-Imla said, we all have a disorder or some kind. God knows about our disorders better than we do. Trust in Him. Eventually, hopefully each of us can come to trust in Him more than we do in ourselves. The impossible for you and for me... is not impossible for God... unless we block...

Yes, a male in need of a wife, but not a physical one. He is the Bridegroom. The Bride is to consist of you and me without regard to our physical gender.

In God's plan there is the male role and the female role. To accomplish His final purpose, both are necessary! Consider that Jesus as the Head of the Body is in the male role and any person [male or female physically] speaking God's Word is active in the male role. The Body of Christ is to...

Turn around When we come to the Lord, we are pretty black inside. When we repent [turn around] that first time, that Light begins to shines within in places and allowing a new man to be born and to grow closer to God. As we grow, are new dark places at time revealed to us that require work? I...
