I have carefully read your reply. I think I have understood now. The Spirit who is sent by the Father, takes hold over people in order to clearly speak truth. So no nudging. Just plain and clear.

Thank you @newnature , your piece rings true. Do you think the Spirit sends messages this way to leave room for free will? Rather nudging than clearly dictating what to do in order for us to do it according to how our personal growth allows us to do it. For maximum growth.

Done with all the chores one has to indulge in to maintain. Been reading the new testament again and taking notes to see what Jesus compelled us to do by His own word. Matthew 5 is particularly interesting.

I really like the interpretation that hoarding anything is making an idol. If we want ever more of one thing, we make it into a goal in itself. Thank you for that insight. If we have any other goal than the following of the Law and Jesus’ commandments, we have our priorities on earth instead of...

Important topic, I think. My main recommendations are eating organically and fasting. If you’d just do those two or even one of them, you will make leaps. You don’t have to fast weeks on end for the benefits. Just once a week for 20 or so hours would make the difference. More tips from my own...

@TitusTwoWife Sounds like a delicious meal! Tough day at work today, but I’ve been rewarded amply for my troubles by God, he renewed my faith Blht finally found it again…!

Man, I have had this exact experience last two weeks. It felt like He had left me. And I went just as silent as He did. I felt so lost the last couple weeks, lost in my faith, not sure anymore what to believe. One morning I was praying before work and felt Him close. For some reason throughout...

New believer here. My path was weird, probably haha. I’ve first read the Chumash (Judaist 5 books of Moses), then I got a bible amd continued reading the Old testament from where I left after the books of Moses. I was so curious about Christ, that I stopped reading the OT at Judges and started...

@Ziggy wooow what a story Ziggy! I see it’s a way of relaxing for you and destress online. Although those stories about secret government stuff don’t sound very relaxing…I agree there’s too much corruption going on in the world both known and unknown. You can get pissed but…it’s why He sent us a...

@Ziggy Thank you Ziggy, for your story. I can see why you like technology since it allows you to be among people in mind and still care for your dad. It’s very becoming of you to care for him, I wish you much strength in that. People back around the change of the millennium didn’t really...

A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit This is a very easy way to remind ourselves of what is true and what isn’t. I am always struck by it’s simplicity, yet it’s so useful. Inspected upon more closely, it also explains to us the reason why God wraths on us when...

That is an interesting mystery being talked of. I couldn’t quite understand everything you were trying to convey, but I do get the meaning of ‘waters’. They talk about the firmament and the waters above (so Wisdom of Him), what do you do in a boat on the water? You traverse. What is holy Wisdom...

One hundred percent. Fasting for me is always the answer, whenever I feel sinful urges in any area of life. Fasting and prayer, like Jesus told us, is the answer for the more pernicious urges.

@Ziggy You make sense Ziggy, that AI can solve a lot of our problems. But a lot of those problems have come about through solutions for other problems. It’s like bandaids for bandaids (for bandaids for bandaids etc..). That’s the thing with technology itself, it solves hard work but creates...

ProDeo, I want to see the potential good that AI can do, but I do not see it outweighing the damage it is doing already. You are right, there are uses good and bad for these things, but often the bad outdoes the good, even in potentiality. But if you have good hopes for AI, I hope they manifest!

I wonder if there are believers among people creating AI . They tell us: “it is inevitable, we must do it or our enemies will”. But they know that they should never doubt that God is with us to do good when we do good and to wrath upon us when we sin without remorse. Simply doing evil to stop a...

Yes! I thank Him before breakfast for a new day full of potential to do good, a day fresh of sin and righteous possibility. He made all this.

I’m am coming to this discussion with a simple mind and read most of it just once, i’ve read the Old Testament like this as well. We belong to the tribe of Israel as soon as we step into the covenant. A tribe which has no material roots, a family which you are born into by Faith, not the flesh...

I see the difference. Moses was a man of the chosen people, growing up among the wicked, yet he chose his potential! It would’ve been an easy life as the elite of the Pharaoh, but his conscience guided him.

@Wrangler Yes, good reminder. Although Moses himself wasn’t treated badly in the story. He was of the Egyptian aristocracy in the story right? But his compassion at the expense of his own status and fortune is a lesson to us. Even though the Hebrews didn’t trust him after saving a slave from his...
