    The World tells you the "World" is the same, since you believed - but they're wrong! (confront?)

    Hi there, So yes, the heart of the snare, people fall into when it comes to the anti-Christ, is that the anti-Christ aggrandizes the demand of the World - not that the World be a greater "World", but that the World be more greatly "the same". In other words, the World wants to refuse the...

    Jesus promises those who surrender for the Gospel, will receive a hundredfold *with persecutions* (truly!)

    Hi there, So I am a bekeeper you might say (I keep Jesus' words), and my focus is on the Holy Spirit to come. Something that has dawned on me, in searching the scriptures, is that our suffering on Earth will not be without reward, but that there will also be persecutions. In other words, for...

    What you've become in Christ... is not a work you do.

    - 1.) If a believer is "sinning and confessing"..... then they don't understand the Cross of Christ or the Blood Atonement, or the New Covenant, yet. So, that is the "natural mind" not understanding the 'new Covenant".. or the Grace of God, or being = "made righteous". If i say that all the...

    God is "God", by faith (considering?)

    Hi there, So I think one of the things that confuses a lot of people, in this life, is the idea that they are ruled by a "God" that asserts Himself, to the exclusion of everyone else. This could not be further from the truth. The reality is, that God applies a standard, to everyone, including...

    In the beginning, the messenger and the message were One.

    Hi there, So, just to throw in a hard ball, there is a way to envisage the beginning, that makes sense of what we now come to believe is the "moment" (the moment we are in). It's not so much a claim about Heaven on its own or Earth on its own (as they are in Genesis), as it is a claim about...

    Suffering unites awareness (around an important focus), but suffering with tolerance, unites the heart with God (selah)

    Hi there, So this is not so much a look at what we suffer, so much as what that suffering becomes, when we work with it. On its own, suffering has a utility, that should not be ignored: it makes us "aware". If we didn't suffer, we would never have awareness of what is causing the suffering and...

    It slowly dawns on Mankind, that the flesh profits nothing, and more than that: the place (in Heaven) for the flesh cannot retain it (expectations?)

    Hi there, So I write these things, as much for my own clarity, as anything else. This time, I am addressing the expectations that Mankind has of the Lord. What are these expectations? Well, they are basically that the flesh of Mankind keep living. In other words, not only do men not want to...

    If the light is your foundation, the universe is your footstool (ready?)

    Hi there, So this is a truth designed to push your faith, a little. The point is not that words give power, but that what they give power to has great meaning. And what is the use of "great meaning", it is able to sift out the weaknesses in your belief and give them strength, that is, through...

    The Devil is against a vow of chastity, how much confusion then, when his young are not the stronger for it?

    Hi there, So you may be aware of the idea of a vow of chastity. It's a vow, that you will not endorse the flesh, in a relationship with another. It's like saying you won't "pevert" a relationship with someone else, but it is stronger. The vow is that you will not endorse the flesh at all, even...

    Strength outside the Law, merely needs a moment - what you do with that moment is up to you (considering?)

    Hi there, So theologically we may identify the Wilderness, as being "outside the Law". Wilderness merely denotes that you are no longer engaging with the Law, to fulfil it, despite the curse (the curse that it can't make whole, only point to wholeness). What we do in the Wilderness, is merely...

    ...which (eventually) means that your previous desire to sin, will clash with your Christian desire to die on your Cross...

    Hi there, So this is something really easy and strengthening to focus, in your walk with Christ: the time will come when your previous desire to sin (hate, lie, distrust for example), clashes with your (Christian) desire to die on your Cross. As Jesus said "Father not my will but Yours be...

    ...which means that others (of the faith) copy you, in the end...

    Hi there, So for those of you who diligently parse the Word of God and respond with what is wise, have hope! The Lord will not allow people of other doctrines to rule over you! If you have been down-pressed debating things online and you know you have been in the will of the Holy Spirit, but it...

    A lot of our mental health struggles, are just down to nutrition - Chromium for addiction, Niacin for recovery

    Hi there, So speaking from personal experience here, my personal struggle with mental health has had a lot to do with a Chromium deficiency. Chromium deficiency gives you an addiction to sugar, which in turn can make you diabetic. This addiction to sugar, can be hijacked by a mental health...

    I can't tell you something, because it is still going to be fulfilled and if you thought you could do it in your own strength, we would fail

    Hi there, So I was going to promote something, that I thought was scripturally true, but the Holy Spirit interceded and warned me that I should not make it known. He said that if I made it known, that people would think they could do it in their own strength, and we would altogether fail. Not...

    The anti-Christ makes Israel strong, but strong in the Law (which is a curse)

    Hi there, So I just wanted to flesh this out for a moment, so that I get a proper grip on the subject, myself. The anti-Christ does not merely weaken the faith - that is a misconception. The anti-Christ makes what he believes in "strong" (now there is a difference between "strong" and...

    (Matthew chapter 2) I don’t understand the Bible

    Very useful information here. Thank you for viewing and hope it gives you something to think about.

    I got it! The Cross of Jesus is where He developed a "contempt for future sin" - His contempt kept in check, *saves* us from not resisting sin enough!

    Hi there, So there is a way to interpret what happened on the Cross, directly: Jesus asked "why Your Abandonment?" and was provoked to fill with contempt; when reflecting on what He had contempt for, He chose sin; choosing sin, the Lord projected contempt for sin in future. That is what...

    Lake of fire

    The lake of fire is commonly known as hell, which is a wrong conception altogether. See hell, the place that held disembodied souls is dumped out. The sea, could revert to Gentile nations and the dead that were in it, where judged, Along with death, and (Hell/Hades) gave up the dead that...

    Why does God allow suffering? If life did not suffer, the spirit of that life would not last long enough (selah)

    Hi there, So the perennial question about God allowing suffering has a simple answer. It is not an answer that changes that we must suffer, just that the suffering has a purpose. That purpose is life-long, and it means that we can acclimatize to the suffering we must endure. Being able to...

    What Is AZUSA Street Revival?

    The Azusa Street Revival was a historic series of revival meetings that took place in Los Angeles. This revival sprang up at night when Seymour and seven others were praying on Bonnie Brae Street, The Holy Spirit came upon them. They started speaking in ton.....
