    Does Your Church Use Catechism?

    Fortunately the critics speaking so clearly and correctly according to them on God's behalf are not the ones who will render final judgment against anyone. So many still believe, it seems, they are an exception to what Solomon wrote 3,000 years ago: "Every way of a man is right in his own...

    "Have you ever had a spiritual paranormal encounter?"

    Perhaps not, but I haven't see you give much, or even any, credit to someone else's testimony or faith in work of God. God does not work in only one channel. You seem to more often than not be lining up with the doubts or disbelief expressed by the unbelieving secular world. If you are...

    "Have you ever had a spiritual paranormal encounter?"

    Strange fire certainly exists, but as we see the verses where we hear about strange fire there is also a fire from God: "And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he...

    My 'brush' with Baptism in the Holy Spirit.

    My friend, you know who is worthy. Not one of us before we have surrendered to Him and allowed Him to work on us some. The work He does in us is making us worthy. We cannot, no not one of us, all alone, on our own, make ourselves worthy! For God all things are possible, even to make a worthless...

    Paula White in the White House?

    How can I answer with an unrestricted yea or nay such a question? Any group or "church" or assembly [no matter what they name themselves or are named by others] is as good as what the people in it are. If even one person in the group is really filled with and following the Spirit, is there not...

    My 'brush' with Baptism in the Holy Spirit.

    Salvation or Love! What is most important? Do we follow Jesus so as to be saved or do we follow Him because we love Him? Early on in the ideal natural relationship of a child he is dependent upon his parents. He does not know what is harmful to himself or others. Without his parents he cannot...

    My 'brush' with Baptism in the Holy Spirit.

    Unfortunately some people who have been close to God, I believe, have developed a church time attitude. They really try to get into the Spirit [whatever that means] when they are in a designated church service/prayer meeting but they allowed themselves to get distracted. Perhaps it happens first...

    My 'brush' with Baptism in the Holy Spirit.

    Certainly, but is there not a proper time for each of opposing decisions, opinions, attitudes, emotions, etc.? The key, as I understand it, to get behind God and stay there. He will never lead us wrong... and this is the reason we need to have the Holy Spirit in us. He is to be our eyes and our...

    My 'brush' with Baptism in the Holy Spirit.

    Probably some people on this forum do not understand that the Holy Spirit is being quenched. Perhaps they do not have the Holy Spirit themselves or they have quenched the Spirit so much and so often that they themselves have herded themselves into a delusion. What does it means to lose one's...

    My 'brush' with Baptism in the Holy Spirit.

    The lack a stronger moderation which all of us at times complain about... also makes it possible to really consider some ideas because someone is allowed to 'speak' them and not have deleted as inappropriate. Who can or should decide what is inappropriate?

    My 'brush' with Baptism in the Holy Spirit.

    No, we don't agree on everything, but as to forums? They are better for many folk than what is common in most church meetings of my experience setting where the practice of quenching the Holy Spirit is the norm. Here, on this forum, people may quench the Spirit or introduce evil spirits or...

    The Gospel of John Bible Study

    @David Taylor Earlier today I listened to your second recording, The Lamb of God, John 1:19-34. Again it was a very good presentation. The main point where I thought you muddied the waters a bit was in your explanation of the "world". I agree that it has more than one meaning, but, for me, you...

    Does Your Church Use Catechism?

    LOL but not recalling very well what our friend @mjrhealth says about the Bible and therefore of things "biblical", you could hardly call what he said complementary!

    Tongues, a SIGN to the UNBELIEVER

    Thanks for this information. I don't do a lot of book buying these days, but this sounds like one I'd like to read and have for reference. I've made note of the title and author.

    How to debate the Bible: for beginners

    Indeed! Jesus tells us the correct priorities: "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil...
