    Here's a likeable thread: Name something you like about a denomination (of Church) other than your own! (really, anything)

    Hi there, So this was a popular thread, back when I was posting on another board: Name something you like about a denomination (of Church) other than your own! I would post something myself, but I don't want to prejudice others' ideas. Are they (the other Churches) pro-active? Organized...

    Not requiring confession and just offering luck as an alternative, men of the world will just choose 'luck' and not confess. Meaning?

    Hi there, So this is a thorny problem for me. I have known for some time that Ray Comfort preaches that the sinner needs to be convicted of the Law, before they are offered Salvation. That approach seemed fine to me, for some time, but I never really felt great about approaching people about...

    If you have read the book of Revelation, and not understood something, you have read wisely (thoughts?)

    Hi there, So the book of Revelation, was the first book of the Bible that I ever read (in its entirety) and I have stayed avidly mindful of what I have read there, ever since. But something has dawned on me, over the years (decades now), there really is no accounting, for the mystery of the...

    You guys have to start praying for two things: the rapture of the faith (that it be great) and deliverance from the tribulation (that it not spread)

    Hi there, So I am concerned for lost souls here; there are two types of soul: believing and earthly. For each of these there is a destiny, the believing soul heads to Heaven and the earthly soul tries to stand on Earth. Neither of these things is right or wrong, but as the Lord wills, so is...

    When you are in Heaven, the Power of the Presence of God is so Great, all you can do is be in Awe (selah)

    Hi there! So there is a mystery as to what we become, in Heaven. The Bible says "we shall all be changed". Part of that change: is Awe. When we learn to identify with the Lord on the Cross, we come to be in Awe of Him at the Resurrection. This plays out in our lives, we extol the Lord, try to...

    The Bride will be barren, the Bridegroom will be impotent. Travail! Travail!

    Hello, So in case you were wondering, where the children of the Bride and the Bridegroom are: the children are you! But the flesh profits nothing! The Bride will be barren; the Bridegroom will be impotent. All the children of their union will be scattered in the Heavens. If they had children on...

    Behold! The Lord is doing a new thing: He shall tell his disciples how and why He remembers and trusts them (hosanna!)

    Hi there, So I thought I would encourage you, by writing down the news of the Lord, as soon as it was revealed to me. The Lord is doing a new thing! The Lord shall tell His disciples how and why He remembers and trusts them. This is a way of developing quietness and confidence (Isaiah 30:15) in...

    Is there even one thing, that would provoke humanoids to come from other species? Where's the selection pressure, that created Man, and nothing else?

    Hi there, So there is a glaring absence in the world of Evolution: a selection pressure of some description, had a consistent effect on some monkeys, at some stage and humanoid creatures developed from that pressure. However, it did not happen again, nor did it happen to other species, nor did...

    Are we crazy? Concerning ourselves with the return of the Lord, when He has already been with the blind, lame, lepers, deaf, dead, poor? Discuss.

    Hi there, So remember how God said John was more than a prophet and how that his disciples should go and tell John "how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached". What if Jesus was speaking prophetically...

    Angels are more able to evolve than man, what does that prove? Should we aspire to be like angels? Ruminate with me!

    Hi there! So this is one of those "how many angels can you fit on the head of a pin?" questions. However, it is a comparison between Man and Angels. The whole issue is what will find life more, those that believe in Evolution and those that believe in Creation? (Bear in mind that I am a...

    Pray for those facing the guillotine (in Israel), assuredly you will have your reward.

    Hi there, So this is just being mindful of the End. The body of Christ in Israel, needs your prayer: the guillotine is coming (still decades away now, but it will come quick) and the peace that surpasses all understanding should be everyone's. We need to pray that peace will come, at the...

    Say the anti-Christ was against "Evolution", would you tolerate him 'more'?

    Hi there! So the anti-Christ being Jewish, there is a strong possibility that he will not be in favour of "Evolution". As a Jew, he has the heritage of the Holocaust to bear in mind and there is a bitter wound there, one that is not going to be quickly forgotten. Is this a marvel? As Jesus said...

    Prayer concerning the death of the flesh (the flesh is divided, between the rapture and the tribulation)

    Hi there! So I have lately come to be very vexed by the falling away of dead flesh (in the world). The world has moved away from God and its flesh has started to die, and we need someone like the Holy Spirit to stand in the breach, in some way. I am not sure what such a person would have to do...

    This is personal! Ask the Holy Spirit to give you someone specific, to suffer for - compassion will be on your right arm (selah)

    Hi there, So in this world of entertainment we have, the gospel of Christ can sometimes be lost. Not because people want to forget the gospel, but because our relationships exist on a very shallow plane - as Jesus said "a hard field, where the birds pick and eat the grain intended for the...

    You are going to feel awful about your sin, for the rest of your life - why not let the Holy Spirit make you feel good about the afterlife?

    Hi there, So I have sort of turned inside out, pursuing faith. I was vexed for a long time, about my sin and how to overcome it. At times I would feel fine, then at others I would be vexed; then I would feel like "I have to do something about this 'feeling'!". Eventually, thinking about the Law...

    How to respond to the idea, that Christ is being slowed down, by a believer? Like how would you respond to the guilt, that your work is unfinished?

    Hi there, So something you may not know about me, but I have a habit of mulling questions of the faith, over in my mind. I basically do a stress test "do I believe enough?" "how would I express that faith differently?" I want a tight, easy to grasp relationship with God, with Jesus. But I was...

    If you know that you are not going to commit a particular sin any more, you can move on to works that justify your innocence in that regard (selah)

    Hi there! So as Jesus said "Wisdom is justified by her children" and there is the child who is faithful and the child who is diligent. Now having been faithful, there is always the temptation to sin and sin gets in the way of diligence, but if you have acknowledged your conscience that what you...

    Before anything went wrong, the Devil filled with rage - in our time, this rage stops (selah)

    Hi there, For some reason this message was deleted. I will just summarize. There are a number of beginnings in the Bible, and while all have their place, one in particular concerns our time. Though not overtly about the beginning of the Devil, Isaiah does talk about the Devil being beautiful...

    Jesus was newer, at the resurrection, but newer again was promised (selah)

    Hi there, So there is just a question of parity, that I have come across, in my study of the Word. That when we believe, we do not immediately grasp the power, of the Word of God, that is coming to Jesus. Jesus is receiving power on Earth, and all the more power in Heaven, in as much as Hell...

    Don't fall into the trap, of thinking your faith is solely your doing - it is your doing in part, but praise God daily

    Hi there, So something that will vex you until you have understood, it is important not to claim that your faith is your doing. Jesus said "You did not choose Me, but I chose you" (John, from memory). What He meant by this, is that the Father Himself has forgiven you, now you must accept what...
