Helen, God knows about our frailties better than any of us. I would believe that if our heart toward God is right when we reach a point where we can no longer understand enough to make an informed decision that God will put us on hold for Him right there. There are reasons which concern those...

Anything that can be manipulated to advantage probably has been manipulated.

Praying more is a good thing, but the posting less is not necessarily. You also do some good with your posts here, whether you know it or not. We don't always know when or where or how God is working. He works through available vessels, which includes you.

Ah yes, our nation was once much more family oriented and perhaps along with that more God oriented. In those times most people lived in the country [as opposed to cities] and everyone worked the garden and crops, took care of the animals, washed the clothes, prepared the meals, etc. When a...

The old flesh has been dying since it was born. Somewhere along the line most of us came already to an optimum point when the maturing of the flesh according to our life style and other factors started falling behind the dying process. Then the aging, that is the dying, started to show not only...

But then again only God gives us any real increase. Don't ask to become one. Ask rather to be what He wants you to be. Give God the glory!

Well hopefully, "we" are really doing that. Everyone seems to be saying that they are doing it right. If they weren't they would be changing, right? @APAK One thing that comes to mind is the ecumenism of today. Some want us to be one, but with what result and what cost? This could be the...

What is God's message to anyone? Is it only what works logically [man's logic] or mathematically? No, His message is to you and to me or the other guy for us to understand something... It is possible of course in the moment that we read it that there is no message for us. Then again it is...

Called to love God, which means paying close attention what He is saying to me. I am not always successful, but God is not finished with me yet at 74 years of age. I really work to be ready to speak whatever God wants and whenever He wants. I know that my witness is not only in my mouth but in...

The dishonest or ignorant or greedy scientists may then be seen together with most [all?] politicians and altogether too many who are called believers. This would be why God looks more closely at the heart than at the doctrine. A superficial view is likely to be riddled with errors. Who is it...

I remember when Uncle Sam flew me on a chartered commercial jet from California to Saigon in 1964. When we took off from California it was dark. At a brief re-fueling stop in Hawaii it was dark. When we landed at Manila it was still dark. The difficulty was of course that we were slowing down...

@pastorjagan I am praying for your son's needs as God understands them.

Thank you for your honesty. Give God the glory!

I do agree that perfect science should agree with perfect truth. Since science usually has no, or at least minimal, means to measure things spiritual or things not perceivable by the five senses of men accurately, it usually misses all of the truth. Until they also listen to God leading them...

It is not a name I sought after, but over time I have moved toward it. There are certainly problems with it, but to me other places have more difficulties than the place where I am. To simplify it for other I may sometimes simply say that I am... an annihilationist. But briefly below is what I...

Very likely she was!

Likewise :D

You aren't speaking of me, are you?

Not surprisingly there are many people who don't want to discuss the scriptures and do not want to find more truth [Jesus]. But, likely few like that ever visit this or other Christian forums. They either lie about their Christianity or are ignorant or they walk in a real lukewarmness. There...

There are some people here who would agree with you in part. What more than that can you expect anywhere you go? Personally I carefully avoid calling the written scriptures, the Word of God and I am not alone in that though we are likely the minority on this forum. Do you want to be in a place...
