    "So I returned, and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun: and behold the tears of such as were oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors there was power; but they had no comforter." Ecc 4:1 "But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom...

    Not faith alone?

    Thank you for your kind response. We serve a God is able. We, however, are flawed. God gave us an option back in the beginning and our first carnal parents took it. They knew what God said and were able to obey but did not. Now... all of His of spring have been born bound by this: "O LORD, I...

    You mixed your quotations. Those words you showed as mine in your post #427 were written by @justbyfaith in his post #425. Please correct your post! Thank you!

    Not faith alone?

    Your response indicates to me that you did not clearly understand what I wrote.

    Not faith alone?

    Your response provides an example of why it is not given by God for either you or I to impose a final judgement of another person. Consider the difference between King Saul and King David! Why, when both were anointed, was the one rejected by God and the other called the 'apple of His eye' and a...

    Not faith alone?

    Of the billions living on Earth or even the considerably smaller number confessing themselves to be Christians, how many do we know personally? Of the ones we do know, how many of their hearts are revealed to us? Therefore being without a revelation from God about them all, how can we speak so...

    Not faith alone?

    We need to stay in touch with God so that when someone asks us such a question, we know which direction to go. As Solomon wrote, there is a 'time to be silent' as well as a time to speak!

    Not faith alone?

    Is walking by faith in God and the things of God 'fooling oneself'? Was Jesus lying here? "And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved? And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are...

    Not faith alone?

    There is certainly a difference between actually being sinless and in declaring oneself to be sinless. Often the problem with a person declaring his own sinlessness is that if he had actually been there, he then moves into the sin again with his prideful announcement of having moved away from...

    Not faith alone?

    It would usually be best if a person did not declare himself to be sinless, but simply keep his belief to himself. Similarly it may be best for any who doubt that a person is sinless to remain silent rather than pressing or accusing the person. If we are flawed, who are we to stand in judgment...

    Name that Tone

    Sometimes it may really be an attack. Without mentioning names we know that it does occur here on this forum at times. Some people cannot help themselves in it, I would guess. The carnal mind works that way. What I see in many calling themselves, Christians, is a double-mindedness. Only someone...

    Not faith alone?

    Most people on planet Earth seemingly have a terrible time believing that Jesus did not sin. What is impossible for God? Is He in us? Are we hearing His voice? Are we following Him? "And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved? And Jesus looking...

    Should Christians Celebrate Halloween?

    The key for me is following the Lord closely. Let us always be among His sheep so that we will hear!

    The Andrews Sisters of course I have heard and enjoyed, but I do not recall this song. Thanks for sharing. I liked this one from Bing Crosby:

    Should Christians Celebrate Halloween?

    I know that I have not. If someone's posts really not at all edifying I simply ignore the posts. Sometimes God wants me to respond to someone even though I would rather not. I have read good posts from many of the people I seldom converse with... God does know what He is doing even when I have...

    The course of this world

    Look first to the "course" of the Apostle Paul: "For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous...
