Do children ever disobey their natural fathers? Do natural fathers ever chastise their natural children? Who is our father, spiritually? And God... who are His sons? Are none of His sons ever cut off? "And he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death." Ex 21:15 "And...

God cannot fail, but we can take over our own reins then even if we try to fight a battle against sinning all alone, we will usually or even always lose. God does not lose battles, but we do have to power to quench the Holy Spirit of God in us. Churches as a part of their scheduled programs...

To become unsaved after meeting Jesus and receiving the Holy Ghost a person has to purposely disobey God. We really have power even if we don't even think about it when we do use it. We have to ignore or neglect or suppress that power, the Holy Spirit in us, to do those things. Once you really...

For a period of time God may allow us to get away with things that are really, like double mindedness, but eventually... "Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device. And the times...

No such uncertainty? Which man was so certain that he could and would never fail? Paul recognized his frailty as a man and fought to do what? Consider what he writes here: "I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: But I keep under my body, and bring...

@My Dreams Praying for Bro B. and family!

God, untouched or obstructed by time, may know who is to be saved, but we do not. We may know in this moment that we are walking with Him, but we do not know what we will be doing at the end of our course.

Perhaps, but posting verses only presumes that what I understand from them is precisely the same as what you understand from them. If that were also the case, all Bible readers would likely belong to the same church/denomination/assembly/group of believers. Thank you in any case!

For me and I know for others, too much of that does make simple communication more difficult. Just our personal differences cause some misunderstandings without throwing in too much information compiled by someone not available to answer questions. I just usually plod along, reading only a...

Be careful about using that phrase, "breath of life", without clarification. God breathed Life into men, but with the disobedience of Adam and Eve that Life was gone. The physical breath into our physical body is not Life as God sees Life. To Him until we have received the Life which Jesus...

Is not the infection already in us before it is eradicated? While it remains in us, to the extent that it does, is it not death itself in us , which Paul names the old man?

Thank you for your response!

In other words, we are still too selfish for our own good. Help us dear Lord!

@BarnyFife @bbyrd009 @farouk A quarantine will heal us? What we need is the Life, which was lost. Adam and Eve had Life before they disobeyed God. How may we today 1st: receive Life again and 2nd: be certain that we will retain it until and beyond the end of our course [the time allotted to...

And so do we not have a course to complete here in good order so as to have this Life continued indefinitely? "And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved." Matt 10:22 To the end of what?

Thank you my friend! My little complaints are really very little ones and relate mostly to this old dying flesh. Should we strive to keep it going healthier and stronger? Absolutely! [Is that one of those ATs (Absolute Truths)?]. Are we not to be good stewards of those things, which God has...

Yes, a sifting and burning process as we are walking along with Jesus allowing the work of the Holy Ghost within to quicken us and the Fire of God to burn the chaff all up. Of course if we are consuming chaff faster than it is being burned and/or being replaced with the good things of God... we...

Jesus came "to save that which was lost". What was lost? How about Life? But Jesus also had that in mind, did He not? "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." John 10:10 Jesus...

So then shall we fill our bellies with that which tastes good to our carnal selves, presuming that all of the promises of God are ours because we opened our mouth a while back to praise Him and say sincerely that we believed on Him? With that belief was there no promise on our part to be kept so...

"But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God." Acts 20:24 "For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my...
