    They're running out of pressure, their mutations are getting worse, the Devil won't relent - who but God is there for the Evolutionists? (scared?)

    Hi there, So there are three elements in the thread title: running out of pressure, losing control of mutations, and struggling with the Devil. The issue of running out of pressure, is the hardest one - you have to take stock of all that mankind has been able to do, and weigh that against the...

    If everything was used properly, would there be any suffering? (because?)

    Hi there, So there is a simple concept you can grasp, when it comes to suffering, which points out what the power of suffering is: In other words, it's not the fire that is the problem, but the combination of the creation of fire, with the vulnerability of the flesh. But this leads to a further...

    Jesus said "you will give account of every idle word, in the day of Judgment" - sometimes all you can do is question what you've said (questioning?)

    Hi there, Ok, so I had a personal experience where I said something - if you can call it me speaking (I didn't know what I was saying) - and it gave the Devil the upper hand in my life. I tried for years to get rid of him, put him and what I had said out of my mind, and it didn't work (not...

    To enjoy Grace in Heaven, you have to love the work (selah)

    Hi there, So you would have to have been deaf to the world, not to have heard the phrase "we are saved by Grace, not of works" among Christian circles. However, I want to challenge that. For a long time, I have believed that "a mature Christian, makes work a priority", which is not to say that...

    The weight of sin, breaks the flesh apart! (breaking?)

    Hi there, So I am in a struggle at the moment: I've started to realise all the lovers in my life (from porn, to real life) need to be pointed to God. Confessing the sin, freed me, but then I started to notice something else: my flesh began splitting open! It's not an external thing, yet, but...

    The internet hates you, baby! (looking for Christians?)

    Hi there, So I have been having this battle with the internet for a little while now. It started when I was asking about someone with dementia being prayed for and the internet threw up ads for a cure for dementia. Later it was hermit crabs, when my Mother bought some hermit crabs. All kinds of...

    I am struggling with the notion of pre-destination - can flesh be predestined? (strong?)

    Hi there, So this is a doctrine of Jim Brown of Grace and Truth Ministries: that the believer is predestined to do good and go to Heaven. I haven't dug deeper than that, and already it is causing me problems (perhaps that I have not studied more deeply is part of the problem!). My problem is...

    We are all His Children! The Lord fathers all of us!

    Hi there, The great thing for me, today, is to realise that God is Father to us all. Whether mature or fledgling, strong or weak, God is Father to us all. The childish have a language, that God loves and understands - it is a blessing to have my childish needs understood by God! How do we...

    The Cross has the power to crush (overburdened?)

    Hi there, So you may remember that Jesus said "I will give you power to trample over the enemy" (Gospels, from memory), but you may not have linked that "trampling" with The Cross. The Cross is able to crush, every spiritual power any where in the Earth. The faith required to do this, happens...

    Please ask for a dream, about someone who I (Gottservant) can share the Gospel with (the Holy Spirit?)

    Hi there, I have asked for this in the past and it wasn't really successful - I think because people didn't really understand how their dreams could help share the Gospel. What I am asking is: "Have a dream, that will be relevant to someone I meet"? I am happy to reciprocate the favor, just let...

    God will never complete you, before He converts you (selah?)

    Hi there, So I have this simple thought for your edification In essence, God will always put the will of His Son (Jesus Christ) before the will of the Holy Spirit. This is because to be completed means that you need a foundation, and the only way to develop a foundation, is to be converted by...

    The anti-christ has a name (whose number is 616), but will he answer to it?

    Hi there, So what the anti-christ will do, he will do steadily. This is the approach to the end. The question is, if the anti-christ has a name, will he answer to it? I have stated elsewhere that the anti-christ rejects birth (and so can't be born again), but the Lord promised that He would...

    I'm slowly losing my mind to the medication I am on; no memory of past decades, no real concept of last week - pray?

    Hi there, This will require a concerted effort on the behalf of the faith. I am losing my life to medication. Names of people, orders of memories, place and time of details of memories. All of it crushed. No feeling. No great highs or lows. I don't even know how to answer my psychiatrist, as...

    I'm sorry I hated you (Church), the cares of this life choked me (forgiving?)

    Hi there, So I will keep it brief, so as not to weary you: my family went through a very trying time, all sorts of things, financially also and I began to rebel against the faith. I didn't know how to keep myself clean and fed my soul with anti-Christian music. It reached the point where I...

    The Devil has many religions, the Lord has a relationship (relating?)

    Hi there, So I just want to call out "false religion". False religion, is a work of the Devil - as such, it is to be resisted. False religion is not something you should entertain by degrees - the Devil will snare you in false religion, whether you are a novice or an expert. As scripture says...

    One of the best things I ever learned, was to be still - pray that my brothers and sisters in Christ develop this fruit as well (please?)

    Hi there, So I have meditated consistently for a couple of decades now and I have never looked back. Jesus said "by your patience possess your souls" (Gospels, from memory). I think we should take that seriously! "He who loves Me, keeps My words" (Gospels, from memory). The thing to note, is...

    Oppression comes, from distorting the Gospel (twisted?)

    Hi there, So it is a simple thought: the Gospel points to the Gospel, that's the Gospel (selah). But how does it play out? In reality there are many attempts at pointing to the Gospel, but only so many succeed. The rest become distortions of the Gospel, that twist and divert from the Gospel's...

    How much does God suffer, knowing He created to suffer? (character?)

    Hi there, So I just want to dwell briefly on the fact that God does not create, such that we suffer on our own, but that God creates knowing He will suffer from His creation suffering. God suffering is why our relationship to Him is so important: without a relationship to God, there is no end...

    It matters to God, whether He creates consciously or unconsciously (choosing?)

    Hi there, So I have had a little of an awakening, actually. Not only have I come to the conclusion that you can't save yourself, unless you have first obeyed; but I have come to the realisation, that the state you are in when you commit your obedience to God, matters to God. Let me explain what...

    The soul of the Holy Spirit lived in Jesus' flesh (Word?)

    Hi there, So I am not sure where to take this belief, but the Holy Spirit has come to reveal to me, that His soul dwelt in the flesh of Christ. When Jesus died on the Cross and was speared, blood and water coming out of His side, was a sign that the Holy Spirit's soul was leaving His body. This...
