faith

Reader, 1.) Paul teaches doctrine ...= regarding the : "body of sin". So what is that? That is your """old man of sin::".....its your : "flesh". Its your "unholy sensual and carnal desires". Paul teaches that this "body of Sin" is destroyed if you are born again...., = which ""frees you...

Hi there, So there is this dilemma I am in, about my relationship to God. I know relationship is important, but if its important, then how you define it is important too, right? So I have this understanding, in my head, that I have my side to the relationship I have with God, and God has His...

Hi there, So for a long time I have been striving with the people of the world, wanting favour, wanting fame. Ostensibly, I wanted the attention for the truth, but that was really a cover for my own ego. Realistically I was going to grab all the attention, whatever the truth was. I don't think...

Reader, Its always people who don't understand God's Salvation, who want to try to prove it can be lost. Listen... There are many ways to teach that Salvation can't be lost, so, let me show you this one, Reader. Now, WHO...........is your Salvation? Look again. WHO is your Salvation? A.)...

Reader, You can't stop being born again, as this is an eternal spiritual birth, that is God caused and God maintained. So... One of the first things a real student of the word comes to understand is....(regarding the New Covenant)... 1.) = "where there is no LAW, there is no Transgression"...

Hi there, So those of you who are mature will love this. It's about a relationship with Jesus, that you can actually test. Getting feedback on faith (anything really) is really important to getting it right; so knowing that you can trust Jesus for feedback should really help you. What I did...

Excellent 'link' = What Is Grace? (Two Minutes With The Bible) Precious friends, the following is just a small portion of God's Wonderful Grace Doctrine: A) Generally, across all of God's Dispensations, we find: God's "Unmerited Favor" Upon All mankind, both the just and also the unjust...

Have you ever thought of what is the most important expression once one comes to faith? Is it, our intelligence? Is it, our every single correct doctrine? Is it, our feelings? Is it, our thoughts? “For when we place our faith in Christ Jesus, there is no benefit in being circumcised or being...

Hi there, So you had it, you chose to believe and you threw everything in; it was easy, it was light and you loved it. Then trials and tribulations came along and you started to doubt. Doubt turned to complacency (a lesser evil) and complacency to a deadness in your spirit. Then you quit. It...

Hi there, So I guess this falls under the category of "ask and you shall receive", and since I don't know what I am going to receive, it is also a matter of faith. The essential point is that I understand what it means to love someone, but when it comes to loving the brethren I have never asked...

Hi there, So there is something in common, between God and Man: both of them respond favourably to gratitude. I'm not exactly sure what the effect is called, but it has been established that flattery works, even when you know you are being flattered. In this sense, God is great at taking a...

Hi there, So I just wanted to speak a little about being free in the Spirit. The scope of the Spirit's freedom is in the scriptures. It is good to search the scriptures, for this reason. However, it is easy to fall in to the trap of thinking, that specific verses are there "just for you". How...

Hi there, So there is a simple fact that I think a lot of us overlook: you are rewarded more for saying "faith without works is dead" than you are for saying "we are under Grace". What is the difference? The difference is maturity. More people realise that their faith requires something of...

Hi there, So it dawned on me recently that what you say is neither here nor there: but what saves! Jesus Himself said "chasing after Me to be the Christ, is nothing to Me" (paraphrase gospels, from memory) that is "when they say 'here is the Christ' or 'the Christ is there', do not go after...

I would really appreciate some prayer about meeting my husband. Abut 6 years ago I was having a crisis of finding affordable housing it took months of constant searching and stress then finally one day I just had enough and I went on different forums and groups and basically did a couple rants...

Hi there, So from the title of this thread, you should already be able to work out that they purpose in Heaven is to empower. The joy you get from serving the Lord, is from serving, and while waiting on the Lord serves, the Lord is not always there. If the Lord is not there, you need to be...

Hi there, So I wanted to talk a little briefly about faith and the past. The thing we know about faith, is that it is incredibly, incredibly strong. If I have faith, I can move a mountain, as Jesus said. On the other hand, we learn that God can harden the heart of people without faith. Take...

Hi there, So there are a few ways of interpreting how I identify with Christ. On the one hand, I identify "divisionally" with other divisions of Christ - "divi" being short for division. On the other hand, I identify this division of Christ as divine - "divi" for divine - that is, sharing in...

Hi there, So there are times when God's prevention is obvious: the people of Noah's day, Sodom and Gomorrah, Achan. But a lot of times God's prevention is a lot more subtle: if you had got on that plane you'd be dead, Joseph fed his family during famine, if you hadn't been schizophrenic you...

- There are hobbies that are related to collecting. And there are hobbies that are related to creating. Both can be an obsession, and everyone has an obsession, or a few. What i can tell you, is that the "creative instinct" is innate in us all, as it came from the Original Artist of All...
