The Old Testament and the New Testament!

Rarely but when a question arose for me I have at times done so. Usually, however, my Spanish and German clarify the point for me. Regardless of what I would find in such a search, I am praying regularly as I am reading or studying for God guidance. It is very rare for me to change my...

What is the difference as you understand it between God's Spirit and the Holy Ghost [or Holy Spirit]? God is certainly holy [set apart] and the Spirit is really the same as the Ghost. In modern English the two words may have developed different connotations, but they are the same in scripture...

That my friend is true IF a person is walking more by their own flesh than by the Spirit of God. What man or group of men is it that anyone can trust to decide which translation or version is the best one for me or for you or for the other guy? I read my Bible daily in three languages, so then...

The "us" includes all with whom He shares. I should know when God shares something with me but many times He also share things with others but I seldom know who they are because it is not my business to know. Again on your circular reasoning thing. Don't trust simply to logic on all of these...

But... the unnoticed probably are noticed by God!

There some translations better or worse than others, but consider the following verse: "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." Matt 5:6 Someone hungry and thirsty for the right thing will be filled without regard to which Bible version they...

I have talked with atheists who called what we as Christian say circular logic. Perhaps in a sense it is, but so long as it comes to us from God as we speak it, does even that matter? God knows! "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:" John 10:27 All of His sheep...

How can any man choose to follow any spirit other than the Holy Spirit? We know that he does. The first recorded occurrence was in the Garden of Eden several years back.

God agrees with hearts that agree with Him. The Church consists of those with such hearts. Whether such hearts belong to one group or the other called "church" is another question.

This is a Christian forum where the beginning of knowledge and wisdom is the fear of the Lord rather than thinking and questioning. "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction." Prov 1:7 "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and...

How about that which comes from a spirit even it is not the Holy Spirit? But the word, spiritual, is in my Bible [KJV] not less than 28 times. So the question which one might ask is: Which came first the chicken or the egg? By the way! Welcome to the forum! Give God the glory!

If two people receive the same message from the scripture I quoted there would be no difference between. If they don't it won't. The final authority whether one or the other or neither is right belongs to God. Perhaps, but God also said: "But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil...

You are not responding to what I wrote, but you must of course go the way that you believe. So must I. If both of us are sincerely surrendering to our Lord, will we not meet together with Him? Certainly not in sense that men have organized their "churches". I agree with this statement, which...

Yes, there is a lot of confusion among what men call the churches, but... "For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints." I Cor 14:33 So then God is not the author of all of this mess and/or we are not among the saints [set apart by God]. Help us all...

I am against abortion, but you asked about God, so try these verses: "Thou shalt not kill." Exo 20:13 But then again: "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:" Ecc 3:1 "A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;"...

My father was left handed and my wife is left handed. If this is problem it could be a problem. LOL :D

Even the two witnesses can be confused or misused as we see by Naboth's experience [I Kings 21]. He simply wanted to obey the law and keep the land which was his according to the law and the law of two witnesses [false witnesses] was used against to get him stoned to death. Because while it...

Of course taking the other side of it we should consider the words penned by Solomon: "The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new...

Everything anyone finds in scripture, be it positive or negative, I believe, has a purpose for God. But... always we must remember that people may work either as the right hand or the left hand of God. Being led by the Holy Spirit is a good thing, but there are those who claim to be led by the...
