Well Jesus was certain here the first time when he was born to Mary in Bethlehem and ministered to those in and around Jerusalem about 2,000 years ago. The second begun for each of us when we received Him in our hearts. He should be working within us until He is finished, if we do not hinder...

I just went to the bakery for a cinnamin roll for myself and an apple fritter for my wife. Nothing more substantial is likely to happen today.

@Angelina Continuing to pray!

Probably more of us than we would like to believe.

Even I was just reading your above words, the apostle Paul's words came to me about not getting weary in well doing. Alone, we would get so weary that we long ago would have sunk clear to the bottom. God just now touched my heart to let me know He's not finished with us yet and He still has...

Yes, this is why the churches and the supposedly Christians forums put forward such a poor image to any unsaved who might take a peek at us. We're too busy fighting among ourselves to do God's work. I wish I could say I was different but at time I get very discouraged and open my mouth when it...

But to talk with many of them who are in the deadest churches they refuse to understand just how dead they are. This forum has more life than most of them most of the time. That is sort of a back-handed compliment for the forum. In the mean time I also start to get discouraged when it seems like...

I really thought we were simply not communicating, but it does seem that we disagree. Only God gives the increase

Just keep on smiling!:):):):)

People are people wherever they are. Long ago they tied up nearly all of the denominations so tight that unless you already agreed with them or you appeared to be a candidate for eventually agreeing with them, you would not be welcome for long. Forums have sometimes gone the same way and some...

We were all dead as I understand it until we met the Master and received Life from Him. We were walking dead men in the eyes of God even though we may have thought we were alive. We had no real idea what Life really was. Your question on this seems to be whether or not Lazarus was raised...

@DPMartin Hey I'm not arguing with you. I used the word "freewill" because you used it. What we have is the choice of serving God or not. If someone wants to call that freewill, that's OK with me.

How dead was Lazarus when Jesus said: "Lazarus come forth!" John 11:43? What we have are double-minded men as James wrote. We can even after the "new man" is born within us choose to follow the "old man" for the the natural of the old man is still there wanting to regain what he lost when we...

Stop now! Enough already! I know that you speak of 11:19 along 36:26-27, no more. God is already working in me for other things. Thank you for your kindness and let us let it be so. Give God the glory! Who else is worthy? Not me!

I guess that the answer to you question would depend on your definition of a Christian, wouldn't it? I believe I've read of more than one who have questioned your status even on this forum as a Christian...? Quite a few years ago I belonged to a very large forum [still do although I haven't...

Amen!

Chicken a la TV dinner. My wife's still recovering from back surgery so she doesn't cook much and my ability in that direction is minimal. I'm much better at washing dishes.

Amen, at least to a Christian Country so called according to a biblical definition. The definition of "Christian" has already been changed and is continuing to undergo change. It's meaning is less and less biblical as time goes by. Christians will be allowed probably to retain many of their...

In the following verse I find the sum total of what men have called free will: "And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land...

This is perhaps, IMO, the understatement of the year. In my mother's house, they were put on our plates and we had to eat the horrid things, but believe me when I was no longer in her house, they never again were in my stomach. My wife had a similar experience in her home growing up and on this...
