True John ..we can never exalt ourselves, even when in the flesh we or some do "give it a try"....it never fools anyone!! There is an odour that goes with an exalted spirit...and it aint a good one. ...that said we do not ever "settle there"and just leave everything to the Lord. As shown...

There is so much in the post... but I only quoted a small part. Well said indeed...Paul pressed in with everything he had...to "make his calling and election sure.." But we also see that while encouraging others to also run..he was never a proud man...and knew constantly that it was all God...

Amen..that was lovely...good post.

Agree that Love is not God, but God IS Love! period. We all know 1 John 4:7-10 backward. "Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love." Love is His nature. But in...

Good question indeed. :) I have never had the answer...except to believe that what is written was not how the original meaning was intended!! But there again...there is much in the OT that can only be reconciled when we understand that "this" very tiny flash of life that we count time...is...

Hi there. :) I tell you I am doing much better than I was in October and November...so I was glad to see the back of them! :D We are in Western Canada...and at the moment we are having the best weather...much better than most. Holding our breath for the deep snows, but hoping they wait a...

I have never found too many to agree with me on this. So I am very glad to agree with you here. :) To me, in reading through scripture old and new, seeing patterns and symbols etc...it is obvious that not all are the Bride. But, most seem to have grabbed on to the idea that Jesus did...

Some great art here...love it!! :) I was once obsessively into rock painting. My daughter and my two grand daughters when to the river and pulled out many huge rocks that we had to carry to the car together...over a year, it must have been twenty. Until my husband asked me if that was...

I don't see progressiveness...I see gradualism....downward...I see a " fog in water" being slowly heated.

Good question...I will look into it and see if I can find anything. But if you have done that..I doubt I can find anything :)

I plead "JESUS"...I plead "The power of the Blood".

Hello Dan...welcome to the Forum.

A big salad , rice cakes, and LOTS of chocolates to follow!! ;)

I can see I have a lot of reading to catch up on tomorrow...I will re-read all of this thread..AND re-read all of the older one...and see how they line up! :) If all of the Church is the Bride of Christ who are the guests?

YES AGREE!!

@amadeus Haha! Well John..you did well...not sure they would convince anyone, especially @bbyrd009 :D I could not thing of any instance at all in the OT. Not any that would convince a sceptic... but yes..this one is my contribution..... Isaiah 28:11 "For with stammering lips and another...
