    Jesus and Commands

    Ohhh, I haven't got a clue about those statements and frankly I don't care. It seems that the religious systems feel compelled to cross all the t's and dot all the i's academically all the while building edifices and acquiring real estate as if that's some sort of measure of truth.

    Jesus and Commands

    'The Conflict of the Ages' series of books written by EGW, are enlightening to any person who has a relationship with Jesus. If you are not familiar with them do yourself a favour and get familiar them. Here they are: Any chapter of any of these books can stand alone. Its not like you have to...

A few seconds later Ive got a smashed pelvis with five breaks... looks like i'll be wheel chair bound for a bit. An enforced sabbatical will give me...

    A Woman's role within the Body:

    I'm not familiar with the literacy level of women in Paul's time but is it possible that it was lower than mens? My guess re Paul's pronouncements here is that the women were possibly prattling in ignorance. I can't imagine him shutting down a woman who has something thoughtful to contribute...

    Jesus and Commands

    Violating the Letter of the Law while giving lip service to the Spirit of the Law is the practice of hypocrisy.

    Jesus and Commands

    It is Romans 7 1stCL. Romans 7 is the experience of those who are in Jesus. Why do I say this? because no unbeliever has the testimony of Romans 7:15-23 The unbeliever does not care to hate sin, particularly coveting. He/she does not struggle against sin. The struggle against sin is as unnatural...

    Jesus and Commands

    I need to be constantly mindful and instant in prayer, even in my sleep. Lust, greed, pride and generally self are constantly wanting to assert themselves. If its not from one angle its from another. However, there is the assurance of James 4:7 'Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the...

    John 9:35-41

    quietthinker said: ↑ Yes, this is right until they are consumed and the darkness will be complete for them. Where will the darkness be then? Gone! When sin and all those who love and practice a lie are destroyed, the whole universe, both animate and inanimate, once more will pulse with harmony...

    I'm wondering if Jesus has cured the battle between your mind and your will 1stCenturyLady ?

    Jesus and Commands

    Would God have given any laws that where arbitrary or superfluous and without intrinsic value? Would God change his mind regarding the value of his laws? Do you think that God had intended to accept fallen humanity on the basis of their performance? For what purpose was the promise was given in...

    Outer Darkness

    The premise you are using is flawed Taken. You have taken scriptures and cobbled them together to support your theory. You have not let the scripture speak its own message.

    my watchtower meeting a summary

    Jesus will draw you Michael, thats how he does it. These verses that stick out for you is evidence of that. In my early period as a believer, these texts supported me and brought me much comfort. When texts stick out they need to be taken note of. Thank God for his guidance.

    Yes, that's highly probable.

    my watchtower meeting a summary

    You will gravitate to where you are fed Michael. If that means only in God's company you will know if you listen to the still small voice.

    Outer Darkness

    It is a play on words you are pursuing Taken, to justify a view that is not supported by scripture (the word of God) A dangerous manoeuvre.

    Evidence it seems you would not recognise even if one rose from the dead djstav.
