"... According to your faith be it unto you." Too many people have according to their actions, more faith in doctors than in God.

Less than two weeks ago a very good friend fell in her home and broke her neck. She was admitted to the hospital and they worked on her neck. She was expected to be released within a couple of days. Instead she came down with pneumonia and mersa and died. A hospital is a 'good' place to get...

@Yehren So then who is our neighbor? What if instead of an illegal alien, it had been a Muslim who was the third passerby who had mercy on and helped the attacked man? Would not he be our neighbor? Remember what Jesus also said here: "Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with...

Something they in their flesh alone simply could not do yet, trust God and His Son... more! They depended on Jesus and believed on him in a measure as seen by the fact that they followed him, but their doubts came to the fore when he was asleep and they feared for their carnal lives against the...

If any of us still sin at all, to me that means that the old man is NOT dead. Who can kill him? Who killed Jesus? Could anyone have crucified Jesus without his permission? We might say that others bound him and nailed him, but... "Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life...

I already answered your questions in my post with scriptures. What did you not understand? The key to staying out of delusion is to always love the Truth even when we may not know precisely what Truth is. We may agree that it is Jesus, but do we know who and what He is?

Indeed! This is how it was for him, and how it should be for us. People who come onto a forum like this insisting that they have the only or best answer are in trouble already. "For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted." Luke 14:11

Even so! Sometimes it is difficult to understand all of the meaning in what Paul writes, but to me there is no doubt that God was with him in the writing. Paul did not boast, but simply expressed what God wanted written. The difficulties, when they are there, are there on purpose to accomplish...

A person in delusion does not know it. That is what a delusion is: "Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts." Prov 21:2 The deluded are included in the above verse along with the ones not deluded. They/we all think they/we are right. What is necessary is...

God's law! [Written in our heart!] Must we have a black and white precise answer? Is the hypothetical answer that seems correct always the right answer in a real situation? "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:" Ecc 3:1 "... a time to keep silence...

By their fruit, but as you say, sometimes we may mistake an evil fruit for a good one. Jesus never did this, which is why it is so important to walk as close to God as possible, always, if we can, walking in the Spirit. This is where the necessary discernment will come to us so that we, being in...

Thank you! Clutching at straws it seems to me...

I guess I am uninformed and naive as I really do not understand why the picture is saying anything in line with the intent of this thread.

Amen! Does God never use an unsaved person to bless one who is saved? When and if He does, that unsaved person has done something right even though it may not have saved himself. Later, as that unsaved person walks through difficulties, God may stir up his memory of that event causing him to...

I wonder? Because you cannot see the message, does not make it so. Likewise of course on my part. Well may God richly bless you as you walk with Him. To me your way misses the Way, but I do not know everything either.

"I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service." Rom 12:1 Nothing special or extraordinary... only reasonable!

But God is never vague which is why Jesus said this: "But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before...

@Lifeasaking Welcome to the forum, Charley! Hopefully you will encounter good things here. Good things are God things.

Hello, Dave! Good to see you here under your own banner, but glad to see you helping out your wife as well.

Anyone who loses their way with God is not walking with God! What is necessary is to be one of His sheep hearing His voice and following Him. Anyone who does not do that is going to lose their way if they are not already lost! "To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he...
