    When everything happens at the speed of light, the Light ceases to need praise! (want to praise anyway?)

    Hi there! So this should really make you confident, that praising God is purely for the Love of it! Christ experienced life in relation to mortality, but keep Himself alive in God, by reminding Himself of the Psalms. But when Christ reaches His Father in Heaven, there is no longer separation...

    We can't Earn : What is FREE

    Reader, So many Christians are trying to earn and keep what God has already given to them for free, and forever. Listen, if you are born again, then you belong to God, forever, having been purchased by the Blood of Jesus. You are "bought with a price" and that price is Jesus's Shed Blood...

    The real struggle at the moment is not the Devil, but Lucifer - Lucifer corrupts peace

    Hi there, So you may or may not get something from this, because I am speculating outside the Bible - but from my observation, Lucifer (not "the Devil") is at work at the moment. The Bible talks about the Devil being let out of the pit, to test the nations - my understanding is that that...

    Just a little proverb for you to contemplate: 'fabulous people know when to celebrate; spiritual people know *why*' (choice?)

    Hi there, So this is a simple proverb I came across, which deals with the attitude we should have when we celebrate - be it in the world but not of the world, or with faith or with family. The point is, there is nothing wrong with celebrating something, as long as you don't do it all the time...

    Submitting : To God's Righteousness #2

    Reader, You've probably read this verse.... Rom 10:13......> "For Whosoever will call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved". So, before we pursue this teaching by Paul, notice that this verse by Paul eliminates a core false teaching of Calvinism, which teaches that God only chooses the...

    Brother's house sold (thankyou); the Devil keeps attacking my salvation (because at one point I backslid)

    Hi there, So just to get it out of the way: my brother is trying to sell a house of his (its really time critical, because it is costing money), I don't know that you can force someone to buy it, but maybe pray that someone will want to commit and that will help. The other thing is: the Devil...

    Joseph Prince "The Law says 'do not steal', Grace says 'find opportunities to give'" - what a sermon

    Hi there! So I was blown away by this message from Joseph Prince (exact sermon unknown, but I can find it if you want it); with one statement, he made it crystal clear what it is that is meant by "the Law and Grace". I was really impacted and had to tell you! The comparison is so simple, but so...

    God wants the innocent and the mature together - you can like being innocent, but at some point you have to want to be mature

    Hi there, Just another morsel of food for the newbies to focus on: its ok to like being innocent, but at some point, you have to want to be mature (selah) Paul in the letters talks about people being unable to eat solid food, because they are still babes in faith (Hebrew 5:13) Paul does not...

    Submission : To Righteousness

    Reader. Are you a Christian? If so, then you have submitted to God's Righteousness as your FAITH. If you have done this, then you have put on the Helmet of Salvation, and if you haven't then you are stuck in reverse, both Theologically, and as a Disciple. Now, Is it possible to be saved and at...

    I’m not Jesus, Nor a Saint. (Merry Chrysler)

    Hello my name is Matthew, this is an odd video but I did it on a whim. It explains my thoughts on Jesus, and some things concerning what God has done with the world. Please feel free to leave any comment or questions if you so desire. Thank you for viewing.

    "When you make His soul an offering for sin [...] He shall see His seed" (Isaiah 53:10) - a promise for the believer and backslider alike

    Hi there, So there is a constant repentance in Heaven, over the need to praise God more - of accepting that we have not praised Him enough. The problem on Earth is, we get discouraged easily and start to dismiss our faith lightly (I know I have). This should not be the case. The power of God...

    Jesus essentially taught the "fear of God" ("the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand"), the Holy Spirit will teach the "dread of God" (been absent long?)

    Hi there, So this thought is just going around and around in my head: the Holy Spirit will teach a greater degree than Jesus. Jesus essentially taught the "fear of God": repentance, righteous judgment, atonement - we were expected to understand that our fear of God should in fact be a...

    Constantly afraid there will be a big "die-off", when God calls many home (Lord help?)

    Hi there, So I have been wondering for some time what happens in the lead up to the tribulation and one thing I cannot account for is the notion of the Rapture - which I think may mean that a lot of people on Earth (of all faiths, meaning everyone) will "be called home" (die). It's something I...

    The brain is much more willing to obey you, if you limit micro-aggression (lessons from meditation?)

    Hi there, So I guess I am just putting this out there, because I have spent a lot of time meditating but never really had control of my brain. The point is simple: the brain is more willing to obey under certain conditions, than others. The condition the brain specifically responds to, is that...

    [can't discuss in non-Christian forum] If someone goes from being atheist to being agnostic, is that progress? (remember?)

    Hi there, So I can't discuss this in the non-Christian forum, because I am Christian - but I am really curious? If you were dead in your sins and denied there was a 'god', but the Holy Spirit started to work with you, and you started to think "it would be better if I didn't make up my mind or...

    Paid : In Blood.

    Reader, Lets look at how you were redeemed if you are truly born again. Now , if you are just water baptized and religious, then this short teaching is what you NEED....because you dont have God's redemption yet. 1 Tim 2:6 If you read it, you'll find that Jesus is God's = Ransom that has...

    The problem with urging people to apply themselves (in works), is that you need to go back further in the past to justify them (rushed?)

    Hi there, So there is a simple three-fold problem here and its starts with being dissatisfied with your own level of work, but it moves on to being dissatisfied with the works of others. This is no good. The point is that works with God are enjoyable and if you are not enjoying your work, the...

    Thinking you see the Cross, at the moment you see Christ (and not before), actually slows you down: but the Holy Spirit said to me "don't worry"

    Hi there! So I had the first real connection with the Holy Spirit, right now and I thought "I better share this, or I will miss what's next"! Anyway, what I was thinking was "I'm always thinking of the Cross, with Christ on it" - like that is the default way the image works in my mind. The...

    I am really struggling, with flesh that is puffed up - I don't know how to respond to the law of sin

    Hi there, I know I need the Holy Spirit. Let me make that clear. What I am writing about, is that I think allowing the Holy Spirit to work, takes more than a mental acknowledgement that there is sin, righteousness and judgment. The flesh is what concerns me now. Jesus said the times He was in...

    Once you have Grace (from God), the work is easier

    Hi there! So this is just an observation about Grace, basically. The observation is this: "once you have the Grace, the work is easier". Jesus said "My yoke is easy". He did not say "once you believe, the work will be harder"! Jesus does not force us to work, but if you have been forgiven (the...
