    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...

    The truth is where the spirit and the soul meet (truth?)

    Hi there, So Jesus famously called Himself "the way, the truth and the life" and also said "and you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free" (gospels, from memory). What I wanted to share, is a truth that exists between these two things. This is a truth about the truth! What is...

    The way out (of trial), continues to be through scripture! (overjoyed?)

    Hi there, So I have struggled for a long time, with poisonous thoughts. When I was in my teens, I got caught up with Satanic music and I said something I shouldn't have, in a state of unconsciousness (while listening to that music). It woke me up (that I said this thing), and it plagued me ever...
  5. Dream About A Highly Specialized Job  (1 of 2 Dreams)

    Dream About A Highly Specialized Job (1 of 2 Dreams)

    Dream About The Highly Specialized Job (1 of 2 dreams in a row) In this dream, I was with another person (a male). He was doing a highly specialized job, which had to do with power or electricity. We were in this place where there were transformers and other metal installations. He got me to...

    Is it possible, that Jesus could make an 'aspect' of your faith: a mystery? Why does Jesus need to declare everything openly (for you to be happy?)?

    Hi there, So a simple thought struck me, while thinking over what is to come and why (praise to the Holy Spirit!) and I realised: everything I ask the Lord to do, I ask Him to do openly, in declaration of love to me! But what is true love? Is it not to let the One who serves you, serve in...

    People who go to Hell, sing praises to God as they go (able to sing?)

    Hi there, So something that opened my mind up, to God's sense of justice, is that there is a reason that God lets people go to Hell - they don't get there with nothing to praise God for. It's not a very complicated event, actually, people go to Hell because they lack faith. But lacking faith...

    I don't know what it is, but I can't stand the idea of being 'beaten' by "Evolution" - Creation is *too beautiful* to be sidelined by angry naysayers!

    Hi there, So I have gone in and out of understanding 'Evolution', I have turned the whole thing on its head and what I can't stand is the idea that it somehow does away with the need of a relationship with Christ. Before Evolution was coined, Creationists vouched that "God had created the...

    The Bible teaches, that Christ created all things - but it is also true, that in the end, Christ holds everything *together* (needed?)

    Hi there! So I had my mind blown, today: not only does Christ created all things, not only does every created thing have their consistence in Christ, but in the end: Christ holds all things together. It was such a powerful thought, because I realized "I don't have to be doing this [life]...

    Ask God for dreams about a scripture - you won't believe how many dreams you have! (post them here!)

    Hi there! So this is just a short heads up, about how to get in agreement with the Holy Spirit, about dreams. The answer is really simple: ask for dreams about scripture. I know someone who asked for dreams about "letting your yes, be yes" and they had so many they couldn't remember them all -...

    Jesus wants God to stay with Him, because God-things happen when He does (welcoming?)

    Hi there! So Jesus says "I do what I see the Father do" (from memory, the Gospels). But why does He do this? I think it is because when God does something that Jesus is able to do after Him, they both are able to do that thing together. Now this being "together" is important, because there is a...

    The Christians with the greatest life, will be those with the greatest dream

    Hi there, I just wanted to point out how important dreams are: the Christians with the greatest life, will be those with the greatest dream. This is distinct from those Christians who have the greatest change (who have the greatest vision). If dreams were not important, why would God give them...

    God creates and God destroys, but God also notices! (standing out?)

    Hi there, So I wanted to post this thread about God noticing, because it is a short step from "noticing" to asking God about what He notices. In other words, trusting God to notice, leads to a relationship with God. The thing that makes this hard, is that we sin and we stop wanting God to...

    Eat of My flesh and drink MY blood ?!? Jesus's flesh is *Word*, His blood is *Spirit*! (trusting?)

    Hi there, So this is something that confused me for a long time, not in a big way, but in a "wish I knew what that meant" kind of way. That is, "eating Jesus' flesh and drinking His blood". In the same way that being the 'Door' does not make Jesus a frame made of wood, there is a way to...

    Actually, I don't want to read something put together by AI - especially not concerning the faith (not constructed enough?)

    Hi there, So look, I know that AI is a tool - I get that - but there is a big difference between reading verbal porridge (nutritious but slush) and reading the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is dynamic and charged, its not a style you just put on. Maybe people who have no other...

    Creation keeps the Sabbath, Evolution breaks it (confused?)

    Hi there! So this is something novel about Creation/Evolution for you. There is a very clear distinction between what Creationists say and what Evolutionists believe: it regards the Sabbath. The Creation account says that God created the world, and then rested on the Sabbath. As a result...

    If the mark is attached to the anti-Christ, and the anti-Christ is thrown into the fire, then everyone who has the mark is thrown into the fire too

    Hi there! I did some searching of where it might say "those who received the mark will be thrown into the lake of fire" and I couldn't find it. In Revelation 14 it says "if you take the mark, you will suffer", but it doesn't set out why. It only says those that take the mark will develop a...

    Let us give praise to God, for the Natural World (no debate plz, this thread assumes God created)

    Hi there! So there was a thread about praising God for the natural world, and it got bogged down in debate, and it got shut down. So I went and checked if I could open another one, and I was told it was up to me. So here it is! A thread about the natural world and praising God for it! The big...

    I feel a little uncertain, calling myself a 'newbie' - but I need help (and once upon a time, I *was* a newbie!)

    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...

    True repentance, leads to godly sorrow (selah)

    Hi there! So I wanted to discuss the Cross for a moment. You know that Jesus said "My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death" (Matthew 26:38)? Think for a moment with me, why did Jesus say that? It is because our Cross is a burden. In other words, if you are taking up your Cross, you will...
