Just because you personally have not had " encounters" with the things of the Spirit, no need to discount everything. MANY in Africa and Indian as missionaries back in the sixties , had encounters with angels unknowingly , it was the people around then that saw it all , and it saved them from...

Bless you Pia. I have said before, you are braver than me is sharing your experience " in the Spiritual realm" I am reluctant in sharing too much, ...It hurts when people belittle other people's experiences, and are sarcastic. A little bit of- " Don't cast your pearls before swine..."...

I don't think so. I guess its because I know Pia so well....and I know the physical battles that she has fought for years, and the constant pain that she is in. I couldnt be so cheery as her if I was in her shoes, she amazes me. I am a coward with pain. Her encounter with the Lord...

Are you always so gentle , polite , and kindhearted!!!! :rolleyes: :oops: Before her own Master she stands or falls...not YOU! Her experiences are hers...not yours!! All I can say ...OUCH!! It is one thing to Debate and have different perspectives on doctrine and interpretations ....but...

Amen. Another totally CLEAR word laying out the truth. Why Oh why is it so hard for people to see it? But then again....I also bought into the wrong doctrine when I first believed. Do you believe that revelation comes to us by God's Spirit, in His timing.... Or do you believe that some...

Great to have you here...see you " on the boards" :)

Yes, one was an unhealthy fear of God. One who was always waiting to catch me in a fault. I did not come to know Him as Father until I was walked for almost 20 years!! That is pathetic!! He was a dear sweet Pastor...but he only ever preached an angry God. I never understood or 'saw' the...

Yes, if it makes us weep...I wonder what God thinks of it all!! Jer. 23:1 "Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the Lord. I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the Lord. And I will set up shepherds over them which shall feed them: and...

Thanks, that gave me a good laugh. :D

Good night...another one of 'those people' who size the rest of us up in a few short posts, and declare judgement on our relationship with the Lord.....Y A W N.. "Beam my up Scottie " :eek: :rolleyes: :confused:

@amadeus That also reminds me of King David, the man after God's own heart. 1 Samuel 21.12 "And David laid up these words in his heart, and was sore afraid of Achish the king of Gath. And he changed his behaviour before them, and feigned himself mad in their hands, and scrabbled on the doors...

That sounds a little bit like a trap to me...with no "right" answer! Been there done that. I just read a moment ago you telling us that you weren't interested in anyones "opinions" but just bible verse quotes. ;) In the Thread :- "Jesus is a human being but not the one true God" GodsGrace...

@FHII Good answer. And very true. :) ====================== What about when we in faith confess who we are in Christ,yet in "fact" we are not there yet. Joel 3:10 Let the weak say, "I am strong" Let the poor say, "I am rich" Let the blind say, "I can see" It's what the lord has done in me...

I blame these " ministers" they will answer for it before the Lord. BUT .....all I can say is, more fool them FOR DOING IT! And, where will they be when The False Prophet arrives????( or maybe that spirit is already here!! :eek: These must be the same silly people who believe the telephone...

I think sometimes people have no idea that they are bullying. I have a son in law which is a bully...if ever it's pointed out, he is shocked and says that he is "all sweetness and light". So maybe some don't know that they are...some people are blunt speaking, and abrasive..and very...

@pia Thanks Pia...it's a bit of a heavy subject isn't it! :) If you get any more insight on it, let me know. haha!!

Amen..very good post John. 'tis indeed a great mystery. I can see how the conscience over time can get hardened when not yielded to... Do you think that it is the voice of God to us through life? And then once we have the Holy Spirit ( or He has us) ..it is His voice we harken to and not the...

@Stranger .... YES indeed....

Job got the right verse for you...... And there is also:- Luke 4:41 - "Moreover, demons came out of many people, shouting, "You are the Son of God!" But He rebuked them and would not allow them to speak, because they knew He was the Messiah."
