@"ByGrace" I wasn't around here when these things occurred. I am glad now that I am around I found you still here. I have always found you to be a blessing to those who did really "hunger and thirst after righteousness". I am also praying for this forum that God might work through it and those...

Sorry that we cannot agree and that you cannot understand what I said. Only God gives the increase... Hope to see you elsewhere around the forum.

Actually, while all main stream Protestant denominations may have a hierarchy, to the extent that they have they are likely as wrong as you are. I won't say how wrong you are. I grew up as a Roman Catholic, but was gone was that church before the time of Vatican II. Vatican II did some good...

In Unity is of course where we need to be in Christ, but the important thing is get there without compromise. The ones who really in their hearts want that and are willing to do whatever it takes will be led there by the Holy Spirit. The OP is pointing in the right direction, but look...

All most of can do for Germany and other European countries with so much trouble is pray for them. For ourselves, we can stay always on the Lord's side. The United States is moving too fast in the same direction as Europe. The answer really is found in this OT verse: "If my people, which are...

Unfortunately, twinc, knowing your position from so many encounters previously, is that I know that according to your understanding of Matt 16:19 and Matt 18:18 the words were not addressed to me. Until we can get past that, we can hardly proceed. It will take God to do it and He will only do...

God gave man dominion or authority over certain things. This is really our so-called free will [two absolute choices: God's Way or some other way]. God spoke and it was so. God cannot break His own Word. When we choose to change to God's Way, He can help us, but we must open the door to our...

Please, do not put words in my mouth and make a debate out of someone's request for help. I did not say that I thought it was God's will. I do not know God's will for him. That is between him and God. Another person may be given the information by God but He has not given it to me. My advice to...

Indeed, God would want us to filled always with joy unspeakable and full of glory, but sometimes we not realize that that is what He wants from us. I believe it, but some other believers may not. If we are right it this, then as such others follow the Lord, they will be changed. If we are wrong...

If you don't understand it or even think that it may be erroneous, why not put it on the shelf rather than throw it out. Who among us understands perfectly everything that God has provided for us in scripture? Not I, certainly! What scholar or saint or prophet had understood or presently...

Even if you have been unable to stop them with prayer, consider the Lord's response to the Apostle Paul here: "And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be...

While this may seem to be so, as the @Stranger said, "God's purpose for us is different. " We are not at the same places at the same times, and many things we will not overlap much, but so long as we please God, isn't that what matters the most?

You might at that. I am old [been a member here a long time], but new [only recently rediscovered this old membership]. I have been on a many different Christian forums over the years, so our previous meeting is not unlikely, although I do not specifically remember the name you are using. [This...

OK!

No apologies needed. You are understood. Give God the glory, my friend!

Absolutely! No patiently waiting on the part of the adversary toward God and God's Way and God's people.

While the flesh indeed may profit nothing, it is a part of our stewardship to care for this old piece of flesh. It is certainly not to be first in our order of priorities, but neither should it be forgotten or purposely neglected. Not to worry, for few of us forget many natural dinner times. It...

My wife goes into hospital for back surgery tomorrow [Tuesday 8-15-2017]. Please include her in your prayers

There's a now old song entitled "He's was there all of the time". It refers, of course, to Jesus waiting for us to attend to him, but the devil is also waiting for what he wants and is working to that end as the prophetic speech of Paul Harvey indicated.

Perhaps the real beast that needs to found and killed is lies within each of us: "So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee." Psalm 73:22 "She [wisdom] hath killed her beasts; she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table." Prov 9:2
