    Weird theology: different parts of your body, can be resurrected at different times - and wait for the body to be resurrected as a whole (at peace?)

    Hi there, So this is just to establish that the "resurrection" is a process. You do not just "snap your fingers" and you are resurrected. Depending on how God has made you, different parts of your body will reach a state where they are alive again, in ways that vary depending on God. The point...

    When you are at peace, God teaches you about life; but when you are at war, God teaches you about how to be resourceful (balanced?)

    Hi there! So this is a very simple thing, that has helped me relate to God a lot. God does not create for us, circumstances that never change, nor does He force us to live under certain conditions but not others. Now, you might think "God has a path set for me, once He has told me to walk down...

    Let us be a generation that was familiar with the Lord's presence, with His Glory in God (Australia?)

    Hi there! So every nation is different and those nations that serve (read: are slave to) other nations, must work all the harder to keep their perspective on God. In Australia, I think that means being familiar with the Lord's presence and His Glory before God. The Lord does not boast before...

    You have to help? My physician is slow, my fellow citizens hate my poverty and my efforts at finding work are a constant struggle

    Hi there, So who wants a pity story, right? The thing is, I am being betrayed on all sides, by bad choices, bad interpretation, bed expectation. I have schizophrenia, which in and of itself is neither good or bad, but interpretation makes it change. The bad choice, is for my physician to say...

    Grief comes more easily to the simple of heart; those that trust the Spirit have their share of strife (selah)

    Hi there, So I wanted to focus on something that I didn't actually think I would encounter as a believer. For a long time, I thought the problem with my faith, must be that I backslid; which constantly seemed to drag me back into doubt. Then I realised I was trying to "do faith" on my own, too...

    "Go big or go home"? The Holy Spirit says no! Go great for God, then share it with the faith! (ready?)

    Hi there! So there is a great opportunity as we head in to the end, for people to do great works for God (Daniel, from memory). What helps this idea, as the Bible says "say Lord willing, we will do this or that" (James? Letters, from memory), is what you will do with the success you get. I...

    You may not realise this, but the Holy Spirit is better at Christianity than you (learning to trust Him?)

    Hi there, So this is a thread of praise and worship of God, but a special mention of the work of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit has a stronger faith than any of us. I used to think "I need to fix my Christianity" but in reality I needed to trust the Holy Spirit to do with my faith, what I...

    Jesus essentially taught the "fear of God" ("the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand"), the Holy Spirit will teach the "dread of God" (been absent long?)

    Hi there, So this thought is just going around and around in my head: the Holy Spirit will teach a greater degree than Jesus. Jesus essentially taught the "fear of God": repentance, righteous judgment, atonement - we were expected to understand that our fear of God should in fact be a...

    Constantly afraid there will be a big "die-off", when God calls many home (Lord help?)

    Hi there, So I have been wondering for some time what happens in the lead up to the tribulation and one thing I cannot account for is the notion of the Rapture - which I think may mean that a lot of people on Earth (of all faiths, meaning everyone) will "be called home" (die). It's something I...

    The brain is much more willing to obey you, if you limit micro-aggression (lessons from meditation?)

    Hi there, So I guess I am just putting this out there, because I have spent a lot of time meditating but never really had control of my brain. The point is simple: the brain is more willing to obey under certain conditions, than others. The condition the brain specifically responds to, is that...

    [can't discuss in non-Christian forum] If someone goes from being atheist to being agnostic, is that progress? (remember?)

    Hi there, So I can't discuss this in the non-Christian forum, because I am Christian - but I am really curious? If you were dead in your sins and denied there was a 'god', but the Holy Spirit started to work with you, and you started to think "it would be better if I didn't make up my mind or...

    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 false prophet is like untamed wind, the Devil confuses, but its the anti-christ that makes you feel weak (mad?)

    Hi there, So this is just a brief gripe about the anti-christ: he makes us feel weak. The Holy Spirit on the other hand, makes us feel strong. The false prophet, is like an untamed wind; he just clamours here and there - once you are out of the path of his moving around, there is very little...

    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...

  16. The Board Game Vision

    The Board Game Vision

    The Board Game Vision I was in the middle of prayer this morning when I saw a vision of a Snakes and Ladders board game. A hand threw some dice (red and white), which fell on the board, and a piece moved along the numbered path until it hit a snake. The person's piece slid down a snake, and he...

    Reading the parable of the Sower, as a parable about the Holy Spirit (open?)

    Hi there, So this might open up your thinking about the Holy Spirit: the parable of the Sower, can be interpreted as being about the Holy Spirit. We typically think that the Word of God can be about anything, that there are some who receive it and some who don't. But strictly speaking, the...

    Learning how the new body works (exercising?)

    Hi there, So I just wanted to share a simple thought: learning how the new body works, is a "thing". As a "thing" we can either do it well, or not. What governs how well we do it, is how well we develop in relation to our "new" faith, on Earth. If we neglect faith on Earth, how will we be...

    Jesus had the Greatest Will to Live, of any one (One?)

    Hi there, So just to give you something, that will help you relate to Christ: Jesus was the One with the greatest will to live, compared to any Man. It was through this will to live, that He learned to heal and deliver. There was mastery in this, in the end, for He lived so effectively for God...

    Praise God, Israel was strong enough, for Christ to be revealed (you have strength too?)

    Hi there, I just wanted to point something very special: Jesus might never have come to Earth, if there was no nation on Earth strong enough for Him to be revealed in them. If Israel was weak and did not revere God in strength, there might have been no way for the Lord to come. This is not to...
