As you may know I have been out with a physical and mental problem for a couple of days and just now read this. Thank you very kindly for remembering me in prayer. Hopefully I will be around here again regularly. Give God the glory!

You are correct, Nancy. For years I belonged first the Catholic Church and then to the Oneness and then to an almost unknown group until about 6 months ago. Even though I regularly attended two different congregations of this last one since 1987 I never found anyone who agreed with me on every...

I try to keep my eye on the kitchen for any dirty dishes. Once in a while my wife sneaks in there and cleans things before I do. When I have gently rebuked her and simply has said, "I'm also allowed"

I am glad to hear these words so encouraging to me. Sometimes it seems I pray and study and respond to people for nought, but that is when I let the old man of me move to the fore. We all know that God is always working for those on His side if we are not hearing or feeling a thing. Sometimes...

Thanks again for the prayer Helen. It is likely a severe sinus infection which also does affect my ability to read or concentrate. Thank God it is better now. I will slowly begin to wade through posts here again. They took blood but the tests results are not in yet. The doctor said she would be...

Even some better preachers I have know miss or twist this. It could be by oversight or it could be a purposeful thing by some.

To all @Dave L @Episkopos @"ByGrace" @Pearl @farouk @Butterfly @Waiting on him @101G and @all of the rest here. I have checked nothing else on the forum today, but this thread. I knew that I had friends who care even if at times we differ... Maybe it's just a small side affect or just...

I have just come from trying to read and respond to a couple of alerts on the forum with minimal success, but something is wrong with me. My mind is in a swirl and I cannot focus with great difficulty on the issues addressed. I ask only that people will remember me when you talk to God and ask...

Thanks my friend for trying to deal with this for me but as I have explained elsewhere I cannot deal much with myself now. I don't want to back away from this forum as it has been a sometimes profitable experience including some of your posts so radically opposed to my own. I may have to back...

Thank you for your consideration and explanations with scriptures. I guess your explanations work for you with where your are at, but my mind has been off for a couple of days. I cannot at this time delve so deeply. I must for the moment leave it in His hands. Thank you also my friend, but...

"But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth." Acts 1:8 The power to overcome all of those things that stand between us and God so that...

But not on his cross alone. If that was all that was needed everyone would be saved. Repentance is still necessary. It is still necessary to overcome as Jesus overcame. This is why the Holy Ghost started to be poured out on that day of Pentecost in Acts 2. Yes Jesus will be with us to complete...

And I guess Solomon understood this a thousand years before Jesus was born in Bethlehem. God always knew these things and would not hide them from a really hungry and thirsty heart... that is hungry and thirsty for God. Perhaps herein we may understand the difference between the offering of...

People want to believe that Jesus died for our sins and in a way he did, but really he only opened up the Way to Life by becoming the Door.. He was also to be there with us to provide all that necessary to make it through... "Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this...

Is it not that sometimes God uses confusion to provide people a renewed opportunity make the right decision instead of continuing to build on old errors? "And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained...

I would say that killing the Christ-in-us relates directly to quenching the Spirit which Apostle Paul warned against. Of course, anyone sold on OSAS might have trouble understanding it.

Perhaps this one? "The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him." Ezek 18:20

My dear friend, I have been discussing this and praying about this and studying this for a great many years. My only answer from God is that when and if I need to know this thing more precisely He will give it to me. The vision that we must necessarily have in order not to perish comes from...

Absolutely, which means that we are required to use all we have to do the work that He has for us to do. This means also to increase in knowledge, but there is not precise amount required, but what is required is according to the tools He has given and/or will be giving each of us. Consider here...

And may God richly bless you as you walk with Him. I do appreciate a reasonable attitude on your part even though you misunderstand me and are so certain it is I that misunderstand. Fortunately, God knows our hearts and I believe the content of the heart is more important ultimately than the...
