    There is a split: the world thinks the world is the end, the Church thinks the end is within (how to settle?)

    Hi there, So we have a bit of a problem: the world thinks the world is the end (or at least part of it), the Church thinks the end is within (either in Heaven or on the way to it). What can we do about these two alternatives? Certainly the world being the end, appears rational, at least at...

    You're going to be there, thankyou sincerely (peace?)

    Hi there! So it has dawned on me that, the tribulation I face, will not be forever. Rather, it will be for a time. What is significant about that (time) is that, it does not apply to everyone. From this, it has been revealed to me, that there are some believers with me, who will outlive me. I...

    Well, I warned you; you needed to pray "deliver and protect me" and you didn't - so now Jesus has spat you out as lukewarm (pity?)

    Peace, I just wanted to make you alert to your standing with Jesus. Jesus said "I could wish that you were hot or cold. But now because you are lukewarm, I will vomit you out of my mouth" (Revelation, from memory). So what is being lukewarm? Being lukewarm is being ambivalent about the command...

    What would be the importance of fasting?

    There were times in the Old Testament when some of the prophets, and perhaps the people of the time would fast. Fast normally meant abstaining from food, and going without drink for a certain amount of time, and for a stated purpose. Here a comment from Moses himself, about the time when he...

    God will shorten the days, that includes the days of the tribulation (prepared?)

    Hi there, So Jesus plainly said that even though we suffer (and have to give things up), we will receive back a hundredfold. But this is the key: we receive a hundredfold back, with persecutions. In other words, God does not remove the burden of the heat of the day, because we find it hard...

    Old life to the new life.

    Not everyone has had the exact same experience of life as many dabble in things which others do not dabble in, however it seems as though when you present Yahava, or Yahweh, into the picture. There is a notice that if the bible is true, and everything started somewhere. The creation of the...

    The fool in love with the end, spares no one even a word (going to leave a blow?)

    Hi there, So Jesus said "the end will not come immediately" and for the most part, you would think you were able to ignore the fool who does not understand this. Unfortunately, the fool is able to fall in love with the end, for the wrong reasons. If the fool thinks he sees his foolishness in...

    Why was Jesus crucified?

    Simply answered, for the sins of the world is why Jesus was crucified. This is what Jesus said to a Pharisee named Nicodemus: John 3 [17] For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. [18] He that believeth on him is not condemned...

    the anti-Christ makes a good friend, just not a great one (need to journey ahead, without him?)

    Hi there, So there is a lot of mystery surrounding the anti-Christ - who is he, where will he come from, who can war against him - but in reality, it just boils down to one thing: the anti-Christ is a good friend. I'm not saying his behaviour is welcome, all the time. I'm just saying, he is...

    The Lord is with me! I can't tell you how relieved I am!

    Wow! So, I finally broke free of the Devil's attacks! It has been a constant battle, but the Lord has finally prevailed! The whole thing pivoted on one thing, that which is faith is faith and that which is death is death. You literally cannot hold on to your life and expect the Devil to ignore...

    In Creation, you love Jesus; in Evolution, what do you love? (evolve 'love'? thoughts?)

    Hi there, So in Creation you love Jesus - the Christ. What do you love in Evolution? Darwin? Jesus said "go the extra mile"; Darwin said? If you love Jesus, you go the extra mile and you remember that He suggested it (and can be humble); if you love Darwin and he doesn't ask you to do...

    Jesus didn't come to destroy peoples' lives, but save them

    We read in the Book of Luke that Jesus didn't come to destroy peoples' lives, but to save their lives. There were Samaritans who would not receive Jesus as He traveled; so, two of His disciples wanted to destroy them, but Jesus gave them a strong rebuke. Luke 9 [51] And it came to pass, when...

    The Rapture will be challenged, by the Great Doubt (slowing down?)

    Hi there, So I contend two things, here: one that the Holy Spirit reminds us of Jesus' Cross; two, that the inactivity of the Church, will lead to the battle of Armageddon. The concept I want you to understand, is that the world, in whatever state it is in, needs to see evidence of faith. When...

    Prayer Warriors

    This will be my final request of your prayers. Pray that my loved ones are brought to the realization of our beloved saviour, Jesus, the Son of God, the Christ! I feel as though my time will soon come to be.... 2 Corinthians 5:8 KJV we are confident, I say, and willing rather to be  absent...

    The Gift of Salvation

    John 3:16 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Many many people know the quote of this verse all over the world, but it takes an individual personal relationship with God to truly know...

    What you do in Heaven, you do *together* (selah)

    Hi there, So there is a simple test, to whether you are over-cooking your faith: are you doing it, together with others? In Heaven, you don't do anything, that is without friendship. Even if all you do is participate in Spirit, you wait till you are together in Spirit. There is no "reading the...

    Hope for backsliders! Your faith can get a second wind! (charging?)

    Hi there, So I have languished for a long, long time that I departed from the faith, as a teen - having had a reborn experience when I was even younger. I would always scour the skies so to speak, looking for the inspiration that would bring my faith back to life. Again and again I would come...

    You may preach Grace, but Greater Grace is about Greatest Inspiration (can you lead?)

    Hi there, So this is something that has been bubbling up in me for some time: the idea that Salvation is not of works, because it is of Grace, is well understood. What is happening though, is that that understanding can lead to choking the inspiration that is trying to ignite under the blaze of...

    If you are a believer like me, that means you are evaluating what every other believer says "from a position of godliness" (marriage?)

    Hi there! So I have been thinking more and more about what it means to be a believer, what I should be focusing on as a believer, what scriptures I should be believing. The more I think about it, the less it has anything to do, with what I want. For a start, I can't know everything that every...

    I really feel like God is holding me under the waves, to escape the (dragon's) fire - please pray I have enough oxygen to still serve the Lord (!)

    Hi there! So basically, I keep reaching a point where I realise "no, God did not want me to just have faith; if I had: I wouldn't have produced the fruit He wanted" I am sort of the lever between God and the world, but I can't function as the lever, if I have been burned - so God puts me under...
