    Prayer Thread for CB

    I will be praying for you and in the interim you, yourself, need to learn also to simply surrender. Therein really lies the answer, your and mine. Don't know how to surrender? Ask God for help to do that also: "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be...

    Prayer Thread for CB

    You've got my prayers my friend. We all need them and they do make a difference if done for the right purpose as directed by God: "Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much." James 5:16 "Ye...

    Prayer Thread for CB

    Good questions, but wrong place. This is the wrong place to even ask the questions. This part of the forum is for prayer requests. Questions about the need to pray, or to whom we should pray, or about any answers or lack of answers to prayer and so forth should be brought up for discussion on...

    There must differences because there are differences to us as well as differences to God. Men, male or female, cause their own problems by making up their own solutions.

    This usage "men" is the general use referring to people of both physical genders.

    One day perhaps you will approach Roman 14 from a different perspective.

    What does anyone consider truths essential for followers of Jesus?

    When we first hear from Him there may little confusion for us unless we are already deeply immersed the doctrines of men. Perhaps this is why took Apostle Paul a while before he was ready to do God's real work and to write the epistles now included in out New Testament. Samuel's example was as a...

    I have no problem calling anyone a Christian who by that means that he is, or is striving to be, a follower of Jesus. The details differ from group to group and from person to person, but we need to take people as they are, from what we are able to discern as God opens our eyes to them. How good...

    Pay to Pray eRosary from the Vatican

    My context is that of the all of the scriptures as I do read all them regularly and continuously. I don't claim to have a flawless understanding but I do want to express what I believe, whether everyone else agrees or not. This is how hopefully God will work through discussion to increase some...

    Nice to meet you too, my friend. Give God the glory now and always! Your first post to me could show a little more kindness considering that we are only just now meeting. If you don't understand what I am saying, simply ask for clarification. I will at least try. What I meant was that you...

    No Righteousness = No Heaven

    Of course it is a gift to use so long as we are willing and able. If we do not Live always with God until the end of our course, we won't be using anything anymore anyway.

    No Righteousness = No Heaven

    "Lent' to us as stewards is how it is until we inherit, is it not? We are certainly on the list of heirs, when we really are born of God, but when do we inherit? When do we change from being stewards over all God has given us to being owners? "And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and...

    With you a member of your group, should we not similarly have a problem with you calling your group Christian because that is how they identify? What is the difference? Maybe no one anywhere should call themselves Christian if anyone anywhere questions their assertion that they are?

    And what is this "truth" exactly? If as Paul writes, we are still seeing as through a glass darkly are we with all of our 'knowledge' that well qualified to be pointing to the beam or even the splinter in the eye of someone else?

    No? And there are no Catholics who really and sincerely believe in God? Are none of them hungry and thirsty for righteousness, the righteousness of God that is? "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." MAatt 5:6 For your information I am not...

    Due to hostiliy here, I've made some changes...

    Indeed, I have scarcely known she was a member. Now she is already protecting herself? She should know that there are some very friendly people here as well as some who may really be hostile. Was any one ever hostile to Jesus? How did he handle it?

    Inheritance

    Really sorry for my presumption! Sometimes I let myself get out of hand, presuming worse for others than is really the case. I have too many friends who also love God, but do not follow the pattern into which I find myself. I was just reading Romans chapter 14 this morning and it reminded me...

    What does anyone consider truths essential for followers of Jesus?

    How did they hear Him? Perhaps each one in a different way, but hear they did and when they obeyed God they were then on His side. I cannot speak for everyone else, but usually I don't hear a physically audible voice from God. I say usually, because sometimes He puts His words in the mouth of...

    Inheritance

    You presume that I believe all the things that you believe. Do heirs not die at times before they inherit in this world of men on planet Earth? That is a type of what can happen spiritually to one who has met the Master. Those really believing in OSAS may be unable to see this. I believe that...
