    After 50 some years I became saved

    AMEN!! At least you are not only saved now...you also KNOW the Truth which sets us free!! We can and do, dedicated our children to the Lord and ask Him to bring them to faith. But we cannot get our children saved , I wish we could...salvation is a heart thing...it is a choosing...for...

    Been attacked by the devil or demon for years.. please just ask god to take it from me.

    As I read that OP I was thinking the same as I later saw that Sword had said ...God ,through Jesus gave us power over the enemy, nothing of us...but the Holy Spirit working through us. The Holy Spirit in us, and the Name of Jesus are stronger than any demon. In my experience when a demon...

    I just come to the realisation that we all in here would find common ground to work from if we tried

    I am guessing we would all agree on the "AMAZING GRACE" of our God toward us all. ( Hence my user name:- ByGrace) I admit I am daily thankful for God's grace toward me, but I don't always show the same measure of grace to others!! ( shame face)

    I just come to the realisation that we all in here would find common ground to work from if we tried

    Yes....me too..God is good...whatever we think or don't think. :) .I like Psalm 119-137 137 Righteous art thou, O Lord, and upright are thy judgments.

    The mark of Cain ?

    I think Cain had his own personal mark...I don't read of a mention that any other person had "Cain-mark." I'll buy it Stranger, what are you thoughts? :)

    I just come to the realisation that we all in here would find common ground to work from if we tried

    So..the thread topic...what IS our common ground!!! :D We all seem a bit on 'shaky ground' with not finding very much of "common ground" ha! So, as there seems little unity so far on 'what is common'...what would each of us see as "our personal" common foundation, or what we would believe that...

    What is success?

    Hello there. Welcome to the forum. Let me say firstly that if you suffer from depression, then some of the debates on this forum wont cheer you up much!! Some of these guys can get " hot and heavy" while trying to "prove their point"..but hopefully you can post and share in the threads that you...

    made to believe and what to believe

    I know this response was not addressed to me...but I am just adding my two cents here. :) I agree He does tell us to "be as He is"...and that is our goal in the Christian life, as Paul well shows in his writing...always 'pressing toward the mark'...yet how many of us have "Become...

    made to believe and what to believe

    Well well, you have got me! :) All these years and I had not seen ( or had bypassed) that they "knew God"...so agree, that nullified my Roman 1.20..as the "jungle grunters" answer!! I know that often when we read the bible we often filter it through our own belief system. BUT, I know it will be...

    made to believe and what to believe

    Job. That's good, I like that. Agree. :) I somehow thought that you were saying that people who have not heard the Gospel can't get saved without "accepting Jesus as their saviour"..and saying the "sinners prayer." I know that some Christian do believe that...they are legalistic and believe if...

    made to believe and what to believe

    :) I'm listening ...I have never ever heard that verse as NOT referring to all mankind. God show us all, even those in the darkest jungles, His awesomeness through the creation around them...so that no man is without excuse when they stand before Him. Your thoughts?

    The Holy of Holies - The Place to Hear From God

    I remember reading that Watchman Nee preached saying that we need to learn how to always stand in peace , before ' the Ark ' of the covenant , in the Holy of Holies at all times...no matter what is going on in our lives...our ' inner man' in total quiet before God , hearing only His ' still...

    I just come to the realisation that we all in here would find common ground to work from if we tried

    Amen...totally agree. I guess it is the 'trying bit' that is the stumbling stone here. Some enjoy ...'not'. But, as " Iron sharpeneth Iron ; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend." I guess it's all good. :) When I have responded to some posts that I have found somewhat...

    made to believe and what to believe

    With that question, I always fall back on Romans 1:20 20 "For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse." On that Great Day, I believe that...

    Do sheep drink from running waters?

    Good find Job. That river was moving quite fast! Agree, the beginning of the first video made me a bit seasick LOL I thought the second vid was pretty awesome! :)

    The Cross that no one wants to talk about

    H.Richards response to Sword.. I have a hard time seeing that "the Cross" has worked much humility or brokenness in you! We are used to arrogant 'stone throwers' and brow beaters with high opinion of themselves ..on Christian Sits...I hope your attitude in thinking that you know more than...

    Baptizing... babies?...!

    True and well said. :) I think that God doesn't sit and 'wring His hands .' over many things that 'we' seem to get all hot and concerned about , or see as some problem.

    Nothing but faith will get the sick healed ,dead raised. Nothing.

    Hands or no hand is not what heals...JESUS alone heals , through Faith. Healed with the laying on of hands , or simply healed over the phone through the the spoken word...Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Jesus in the gospels healed many different ways...some He just...
