"...Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you." Matt 21:31

Sure being 'ready to pounce' is detrimental to real communication if it means that a person has already decided his answer before hand and his only purpose is to somehow win something through discussion or debate. My words to that effect regarding you were based on the way you entered this...

Indeed! This what I see as what men often call "free will". There are only two choices really expressed in the scriptures, which Jesus calls God or mammon... the latter one being "death".

Do you really suppose that God has given you or me or any other one person all of the answers to all of the questions? The answers needed by each of us are those answers necessary for us to perform our function properly as the part which we are to be in the Body of Christ. There was a message in...

If we are His Body and He is our head then are we not always subject to our Head? How obedient is a healthy young human body to the brain of that same body? Do the two legs of your natural body even get into an argument as to which direction to walk? If not, why not? Is not the Body of Christ...

Do you not believe that before they disobeyed, Adam and Eve, had the real Life, which Jesus was sent to bring for whosoever will? They had the Life and they gave it away even though they were warned to eat of that tree meant death for them. All of their offspring were effectively in the eyes of...

What do you see as being the Breath of God?

I was really not talking about physical place of residence for physical man named Jesus who walked planet Earth about 2000 years ago. I was talking about something that really makes a difference to a child of God. Do we not want to be a part of the Body whereon Jesus is going to rest? He is the...

I don't know your position on what is called OSAS, but that does makes a difference in the answers to your questions. I believe that being born again is an opportunity given to anyone who takes it to do with our hope what Adam and Eve failed to do with their hope. God was always there for Adam...

Helen children are happy when they are in a happy situation which really has nothing to do with material possessions as you already know. I mentioned children because Jesus spoke of us coming to him like little children. This is the unspoiled little child still happy with Mama and Daddy and the...

Hopefully it is not there!

@Helen and others here, friends old and new. I don't like to complain, but the flesh still pushes up its ugly head now and again. Mostly recently I had another severely painful time with my left side sciatica... but, Glory to God, because it is behind me one more time. I was in my recliner for...

Blame the Church? No, but I make a distinction between what men at times call "churches" and the Church. The One, who is always right is the One who alone is "good" as Jesus related it. All the rest of us until and if all of the filth is cleared out and replaced with the "Good" from the Good One...

No, dear sister, I have no intention of leaving. Several months ago I seriously considered it, but God had a different idea. When we hear from Him, we must pay attention and obey! Give God the glory!

When we were "children" is, I believe, the key!

"And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see." John 1:46 And where is the prophecy in the OT? Mt 2:23 And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be...

There is the old skit, "Who's on first?" who's on first abbott costello youtube - Bing video

Ah yes, but so many presume that this is already the end of the road, that being born again, born from above or born of God makes us already perfect, or assured of perfection, without regard to what choices including mistakes that we make from that point. How perfect was Adam when the dirt was...

Again so sensitive! Poor me! [Don't be offended by this. If I never felt the same I would not understand that much.] No, I do not understand all of your motives, but sometimes what I have seen has been a selfishness. All of us have been there and only Jesus among men of flesh was never...
