I see that @Hidden In Him has already answered your question.

@Avalon1 Welcome to the forum. May you be continuously blessed by being here with us and God!

"Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God." Acts 14:22

Welcome to the forum Mike! May God richly bless you during your time here.

Here is something I wrote about 10 years ago that provides some background: God gave the law to Moses for the natural children of Israel, but for the most part they were unable to obey those written laws [613]. Why should we today be able to compile a black and white set of written rules from...

Sorry I have not read all of this thread. I read only the post of yours to which I replied directly. When I was younger I tried to read all posts, but I haven't done that in quite a while. I understand somewhat where he is however with regard to the written scripture. The problem with written...

Yes, Jesus is the Word of God. The Bible is his dead body waiting to be consumed [his flesh eaten] and to be brought to Life by the Holy Spirit in the hungry and thirsty person... then we have it: "To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles...

Jesus on the cross, dead and not yet resurrected!

Are you saying then that @mjrhealth has an empty box but the box of @FollowHim is full of the good things of God? I don't know you, but I've known mjr for several years on forums. You are wrong about him. Is God limited to talking to a person or moving with a person in only one way? That is...

@Rita The natural thing is to lean on my own regular sources of income, my health insurance, the cop on the corner, my family, my own brain, my own physical strength, etc.. Any time I come short of His glory those are some of my leaning posts. This is why a needful daily thing is to really get...

Patience sister, patience. According to His time is when it shall be.

@mjrhealth People want to codify the NT and effectively each group, which insists so strongly, has done so and continues to so. It did not work for the chosen people of God in the OT, but now...do they think it can be done? Peter put it momentarily to a stop as we read in the following verses...

Indeed, there a difference between what men wrote down and what God spoke. Because the Bible records things from that time, many people mix up the two. They are using their carnal minds to make their determination and for that reason it is in error. Jesus is the Word of God. Jesus is not my...

God's chosen people, the children of Israel, should have been under the control of God alone. That they were not was according to their own choice. When they had one man of God [Moses or Joshua] as a leader, and they followed their human leader and God faithfully, they were blessed. When they...

I don't recall reading this before. That last phrase really made me laugh. "If wishes were horses, beggars would ride". I wish when I was very young I could have understood that phrase and taken it to heart. But God had another way for me and He has another way for others as well... but for one...

"To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time...

"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." Rom 8:28

Without deciding when a "life" begins, we still have an obligation as stewards of whatever God has placed with us. Even if what is in the womb were not really a "life" prior to birth[which I do not concede], the woman bearing it and the father who planted it are still responsible as caretakers...
