Thank you! I only wanted clarification that you had a testimony. I am glad to hear that you do. The Bible certainly contains testimonies of others, but they are men we cannot readily talk to these days. If a person comes to us with no testimony of his own, but lots of Bible knowledge, should we...

Do you personally not have a testimony about Jesus? If you have met him and know him and are following him, surely that should be your testimony? Studying the Bible can be a good thing, but if your heart is empty, what good are the words you read or quote from it to someone else?

Not only this discussion on this thread but on many throughout this forum. I agree with this about the use of human reasoning to make final and binding decisions about what we believe! On this part you believe these things in a certain way, which is your right, but the judgement of others who...

But are not the contradictions in the minds of men using men's logic without the leading of the Holy Spirit? I believe that God allows what appears to men as contradictions as part of the sorting/sifting/growing process in God's purpose. Only by following the Holy Spirit may a person come out...

I said that God knows, Not that I did. Yes, I have some ideas, but my ideas are somewhat incomplete or disjointed. When God gives me something to share I do, but I try not to share things simply because they are in my head. My Leader should always be the Holy Spirit! I have some messages...

There is a message also in the beasts, clean and unclean, who were saved. Just consider it and talk to God about it. Perhaps you will see what it is. God certainly knows!

"Having one foot in both worlds!" With Sonny and God that may be working very well if he really leans hard on Jesus for support and lives in a way 'day to day' in which people notice a "good" difference in him for he is one that many people apparently look at... [I honestly had never heard of...

Yes, when I read it, I gathered that that part was not for me. No problem! I deleted that part in my response.

When asked Pontius Pilate's question [What is truth?] some people may correctly say, Jesus, even when they scarcely know him at all. Many believers see Him as through a glass darkly, that being their vision of the whole Bible. If the Bible shows all of Jesus to those with eyes to see, how clear...

@My Dreams Praying that God help you accomplish his purpose in feeding people!

Even if Peter was so addressing that particular group, that hardly limits God to having no other message to anyone reading the Bible today, does it? Who among us knows everything that God has to say to everyone through the written scriptures? Does God have precisely the same message for each and...

Indeed, when we have looked back to Sodom or we have returned to eat of our own vomit, we need to turn around again!

It is the nature of the beast, that is, the carnal man part of us to want absolute answers to every question now...or as soon as possible! Such a desire in itself is not evil or sin, but wanting it, or in worst case scenario even insisting that I must have it or that I do have it now, can...

Only 8? That was Noah and family, but there were others even though designated by some as lower animals or beasts: "But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee. And of every living thing of all...

This my friend is really a good place to be... Don't be terrified! Be thankful! "Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts." Prov 21:2 It is a good place to be because it allows you to more easily open yourself up to God. That is... recognizing what Solomon...

Could it be the born again person who chooses to turn back into his own vomit or like Lot's wife after being saved from Sodom looks back and becomes a pillar of salt?

First quoting the verses where it says exactly that: "He who does not love does not know God, for God is love." I John 4:8 "And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him." I John 4:16 Mostly in English I used...

We are in different places on this. I have already had my say.

I don't know what that means...? I underlined the words, When I can, to emphasize that somethings I cannot avoid because the Holy Spirit is leading me that way. When I am being led by the Holy Spirit along a pathway, which in my flesh I would definitely avoid, I am compelled by my trust in God...

Jesus prayed this way: "Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. And the glory which...
