    NON-OSAS Spirit?

    The answer to the first question is certainly, I believe, yes. Should we not all be moving toward the "no" answer if we are striving to approach God more closely? The answer to the second question will at times for at least a few also be, yes. What should the answer in the end of the matter...

    Confusion

    I knew a good Christian lady for several years before her natural death. Her eyesight was diminishing. Most of her friends, like myself, could be seen as shadows by her, but she had never seen our faces clearly. In her natural lifetime she never did. But, usually she recognized us coming toward...

    Confusion

    So long as we still see through a glass darkly instead of face to face, as even the apostle did at the time of his writing we retain in part confusion. The confusion has to go, but we need God's help to get rid of it because until He opens our eyes to see clearly our vision is impaired which...

    Confusion

    "Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is." I John 3:2

    Confusion

    If you have ever known a person who was not completely blind but had extremely poor vision you would understand that that verse really does have a lot to do with confusion. Consider this situation: "And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch...

    NON-OSAS Spirit?

    Is anyone always pointing an accusatory finger at another? Is anyone not doing that? Does not everyone believe that he is right no matter what side of this issue he takes? So why do men argue continuously over it when we know [don't we?] that only God gives the increase? "Every way of a man is...

    Is wearing jewellery with the cross or crucifix a form of idolatry?

    You should read about Nehushtan. In itself it was not evil. Its purpose was not evil when it was made. Quite the contrary, yet when Hezekiah was king he had it broken into pieces.

    Confusion

    Then what does this verse mean? "For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known." I Cor 13:12

    Confusion

    "If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me. Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee." Psalm 139:11-12

    Is wearing jewellery with the cross or crucifix a form of idolatry?

    But not all of the things men have made with their hands are evil. If that were so we would not be communicating via Internet on our electronic devices today. If there is a line to be drawn between intrinsically evil artifacts, who but God is qualified to draw that line? If there really is a...

    The Catholic Church is a Christian Church

    My father and all of his family were always Pentecostal Holiness in the Oklahoma City area. My father never changed when his church changed. His mother, my grandmother, were among those old timers. I was only an occasional as my mother divorce my father and moved to California when my older...

    Looking for advice: Can women be pastors

    Consider that zombies are the walking dead. Is that not what every person born to woman was, a zombie, before they met Jesus and obtained Life?

    Is wearing jewellery with the cross or crucifix a form of idolatry?

    I quoted the verse [Gen 1:31]. There were no exceptions.

    A prayer to stop the mouths of lions:

    @VictoryinJesus "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:" Ecc 3:1 "... a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;" Ecc 3:7 Always there is the right time and it is always God's time rather than our own. So then when you saw the need to close your...

    Is wearing jewellery with the cross or crucifix a form of idolatry?

    If wearing an ornament or jewelry of a cross or a crucifix makes you uncomfortable before God then don't do it, but the things in themselves are not evil. Remember how God created everything? "And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the...

    Homosexual Wedding Cake, "Colorado Baker Wins", Supreme Court 7/2 Decision!

    To clarify, my point was simply that very many who are called by the name, Christian, are really not followers of Christ. As time passes and our nation continues along its present course, those who really strive to follow Jesus will very likely be condemned by the majority of those who bear the...
