@bbyrd009 Keep on striving and smiling. We may not agree on every point, but I think we do agree nevertheless on what is really important. Give God the glory!

What you are saying is not to vow from our own power, according to our own way without God. I agree with that. I also learned that lesson but in spite of learning the lesson previously circumstances effectively made me break my vow not to make any more vows, when I made a vow to take care of my...

Who is blaming God? God does have His time for things. We need to pay attention to Him to act as He wants us act and when He wants to act or to refrain from action: "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to...

Give God alone all of the glory my friend! All of us have at times missed the mark of the high calling, but we serve a mighty God who knows exactly what each one of us needs. You have long been posting blessings to me and to others here.

Thank you Angelina! Give God the glory!

Then like the children of Israel in the wilderness I have rebelled that one time too many. For them it was 10 times. For me it is...God knows? I won't speculate further on my potential for failure as that is not part of my vision.

@bbyrd009 Of course people can get off the track and allow themselves by their attitudes, by their failure to stay tuned to God to become as you say possessed, but it is not something for real follower to worry about, is it? I spoke of the ideal way, which is God's Way. That people bearing the...

The dominion is ours, even though it is best for us to hand over the reins to Him. We are always in charge but most of the time we are unqualified to give commands, even to ourselves: "O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps."...

Perhaps some will say the following verses speak of what men call communion or the eucharist. They may be right but if they are there is a more important part: Jesus is the Word of God. His flesh is the raw words of scripture even to be consumed [read or heard] by us but then to become a part...

He may indeed do as you say many times, but I do not presume that he always will. To presume may be to tempt God so better to not act as if He will.

Jesus was also an angel of God. That is he had a message from God for men. An angel is a messenger. Check your references and see how often the same original word translated as messenger in English is also translated as angel. Some angels are men sent by God with a message such as John the...

Do you really believe I make stuff up? I do not.

I agree! But without the direction of the Holy Spirit, no man can receive God's message as it is written in the scripture. When we follow our minister alone or our church alone without communicating with God we will miss His message to us even though we are reading the Bible. Ministers are...

The way to seek first His Kingdom is by eating His flesh and drinking His blood on a very regular basis, hopefully every day. If we do then we have Life and those who have Life are able to hear, are they not?

That simply confirms what Jesus said here: "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." Matt 5:6 You say they were not Christians, but what does that mean? If someone is pursuing God's truth, is he not a Christian in any case for who or what is...

His attacks on me and others here are unfortunately beyond just differences in belief. That hurts but I am able with God's help to handle it. Others here may of course speak for themselves, or not. Attacking those unable to defend themselves with blatant presumptions which favor his own position...

When we pray as indicated in scripture, what is it we are doing? "Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you." Luke 6:28 Are we not sending a message to God? Perhaps rather than a message alone it is a message we are sending by a messenger/angel? When we send a...

Is there water and other water... or is it all the same? The sea is that on which Jesus and Peter walked. Peter walked on top of the water until he started to sink. Calling on Jesus prevented him from sinking and drowning. If there were no more sea then I would guess that there would no...

The messengers/angels from God we see are not all the same. Some may appear as men while others may only be seen in our hearts. As to sending one out on assignment, what is it we do we pray an intercessory prayer on behalf of another person...as for instance? "Open their hearts that they might...

Yes my lack of belief in the trinity is my concern. You call it a problem, but I do not. So long as I am seeking first His kingdom and His righteousness what will I be lacking of importance? "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto...
