The work that Jesus was sent to do was finished. He had finished overcoming the world of temptation so that he could be the sacrifice he was meant to be. He had overcome all of those temptations in his own world of flesh [John 16:33] and He then went on to be the sacrifice which opened the Way...

What am I trying to say? Or is it God trying to say something through me. Some will undoubtedly deny that last no matter what I say: Jesus was/is the Word of God, but things got very dark and he no longer spoke. He said it is finished and gave up the ghost. Talk about a shortage of the Word of...

A point? Not especially but I thought others might see a connection between what @ScottA posted with regard to "light into darkness" for Jesus was the Light of the world. Then during the work day there was darkness: "I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh...

"When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost." John 19:30 "And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour." Mark 15:33

Well give God the glory anyway!

Thank you for the poem. I must be honest in saying I have a hard time understanding poetry, but please don't take that as criticism. That's just me admitting my ignorance in that area. I was not offended by your video, but I have some beliefs which often don't line up with many on this forum...

You seem to be implying something that does not fit. The Truth may not be precisely known by each of us, but joking or messing around about our lack of complete understanding should not come into it. Perhaps I have misunderstood what you meant.

Sorry you are negative. Negative faith is problem with a great many Protestants...and Catholics. Jesus did say... "...according to your faith be it unto you." Matt 9:29 You say it is unscriptural but if I had time and inclination could present a totally scriptural argument here. But doing that...

You would not have any sarcasm included in your words, would you, my friend? LOL. Give God the glory!

@Shanmugam Welcome to the forum. Regarding your video: Very good my friend! I enjoyed listening and agree with much. May God richly bless you as you continue your walk with Him! Give God the glory!

Perhaps as we can see it, it seem to not be "fair", but when we can see as God sees it, I believe that it would be also fair. But... if no face to face vision yet...? As you, "continue to walk in the light...".

While we are still working it is always "day" or "today". I worded it carefully to retain that today. When the "day" is done it is night: "I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work." John 9:4 As long as we keep starting anew and...

And my question then would be, what and where is hell? Consider this man's description of hell: Spiritual versus Religious

Actually what @quietthinker said was not so far from what I believe. You call it "theory" but I would call it rather a "vision" as the scripture describes it. My vision while perhaps still in the area of which Apostle Paul mentions is improving with each touch by Jesus. You have your vision...

This thing of striving ourselves is good and expected... but it is NOT enough. The verses you quoted tell it if we can understand them. To me they mean for us to surrender completely to God, so that as we give it all we have, He will take up all necessary slack. The surrender is not a one time...

I understand, but I really don't believe he can do what you suggest. When he does have a message from God to many it is effectively in an unknown tongue for many. An interpreter is required, but this it true for anyone who really has a message from God. The ultimate interpreter is the Holy...

What we are looking at is ourselves, but how well can a person really see himself? Without a mirror much of our own carnal body of flesh cannot be seen by us. But, we are to look for and somehow eradicate flaws or as you put it 'wash away dirt'. It is a laver, a place where the priests were to...

Even so! People who believe in God and His Son are not all in the same place for different reasons. They are young in the Lord, or they are old in the Lord, or they are different parts of the Body of Christ. Of course, there are some among us who are "tares among the wheat". All of these we...

The question may be pertinent to many people, but what would we expect in answer from a person if there were no names and numbers in our written Bible? Can a person hold any portion of God's truth and express it only based on what God has written in that person's heart? Of course most everyone...

When we first come to Jesus, the Light has attracted us. That is, God is drawing us to Jesus. We don't know a thing then that we could easily translate into plain English that just anyone could understand. But God leading us knows all that is necessary. The problem is that forthwith when we...
