It sounds like someone is being overtaken by the 'cares of this world.' I can't say I blame him, because I've been there too. The time of the end is near, and all this going on in the world today is prelude to that fact. However, I will love my country and I took an oath to fight, even to...

Skateboarding? I can't wait to try that in Heaven. Like my father told me when I was young, "if you get to heaven and you want ice cream, then I can promise there will be ice cream." I really do believe life will be in heaven (which will be on this earth BTW) just like it was always...

I think the problem stems from people (like Justin said--in so many words) don't know how much they are loved by the Father. John 17:23 Jesus is praying that we would know He loves us the same as He loves Jesus--not that He would love us, but that we would know it. Most of us don't know it...

Hey Vet. To me the term life verse is actually to say a verse that began the radical change in your life. I understand that not everyone sees it that way, but I do. Mine is John 17:23 where Jesus is praying and He prayed that we would know that the Father loves us the same as He loves Jesus...

I find nothing in the Bible that says we don't have sex there. I see where it says we don't marry, but that was an institution God set up for man Here on earth. I too hope there is sex or at least something better. ...and the girls are much better looking up there, and so are we. I would bet...

I don't fully know all the theology on these verses, but they seem to say something different to me than they seem to be saying to you. Eph 1:4 it seems you think the 'us' in this verse is 'people whom God chooses. I see it as those who are in Christ (those who chose CHrist) Eph 1:5 same...

High Warrior, For what it's worth I'll give you my two cents. First, I believe this deep-burning want you have is from the Lord. He is, afterall the one who gives us the desires of our hearts. What is keeping you from going? Fear is not from the Lord. If it's something else, weigh that out...

This may be a bit dificult for many to take in--I know it was for me at first--but let me give it a go. At one point Jesus said that the kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that starts off very small and grows to be very large. At another point He said that the kingdom does not come with...

I always thought the thorn was the woman he had cast the demon out of. She bothered him for some time. The thorn in the flesh has always been mentioned in the OT referring to a person or persons (or personality). "the messenger of Satan" also tells us it is a person sent by Satan. 9...

I've seen MS&W more outside of a church than inside a church. Most of them were one-on-one or two-on-one. Just people praying--commanding that mountain to be cast into the sea and for the name of the disease to bow to the name of Jesus. When those things happen, one can't help but praise and...

Hi Kepha31, I stand on the premis that mixing the law (covenant) and grace (covenant) is like mixing new wine in an old wineskin and it leads to confusion and causes a person to take offense (which the BIble says will happen a lot in these last days). To make my point regarding your post: You...

hi Brodav9, You forgot to mention that from our heart will flow rivers of living water--john 7:37-39, So I believe that others can taiste that Living Water thru us. Not that we can Give them the Holy Spirt. The 5 wise virgins couldn't give the foolish virgins their oil (Holy Spirit), instead...

Amen, Rex. 9 but we are not in the flesh but in the spirit, if the spirit of God dewells in you (us). Notice, no if's , and's or but's. If we have the Spirit of God inside of us, then we are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit. That does not mean our flesh won't still commit sin, but like...

yes, Jiggyfly. Grace and truth came thru Christ. The law came thru Moses. The law came that the sin would abound. The law was given to expose our sin. The law was given to show us we need a savior. When Jesus was teaching the Jews who thought they were doing fine at keeping the law, He...

Hi Sabitarian, What verses do you use to show that the 10 Commandments are not nailed to the cross and are not fulfilled in Christ? Col 2:13-14 He has forgiven all our tresspasses (sin--transgression of the 10 commandments) by 14 blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us...

This is a very complicated topic, but I'll give it a go: One thing we all need to remember is that we have been given the mind of Christ. If we are delighting in Him and focused on Him more so than we are focused on worldly things, we will grow in the ability to hear Him. He is always...

Hi Endtime, I used to believe that I was supposed to go home and sell all that I had to gain the treasure, but then I realaized not long ago, that it was Christ who gave up everything to buy me. To buy you. He cherishes me so much more than I am capable of loving Him. He has given up...

Here is my two cents worth: Don't ask God to make it stop. He gave you instructions and the authority to make it stop. He told you to take those thoughts captive. The thoughts of worthlessness and uselessness are not coming from Him, they are coming from the accuser--don't agree with him...

First: We are that important. Not to Satan, but to God the Father. Second: The devil does want to be worshiped. He didn't want God to worship him, he wanted to be like the Most High. While tempting Jesus on the Mt. Satan told Him that if He would bow and worship him, he would give Him...

You are a priest. We are a nation of kings and priests, we have the Holy Spirit inside of us and we have the right to enter into Holy of Holys with boldness. Don't ever forget who you are in Christ.
