    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...

    You may not ever get spiritual continuity, unless you put the Holy Spirit first, at the end of your life (selah)

    Hi there! So this is just an exercise in commitment. Your life is going to end. You can try to end it, yourself. Or you can end it, in the Holy Spirit. The typical life to aim for is the good life - three score years and ten (70 years). At some point, even if you don't get the good life, your...

    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...

    What did Jesus say about our diversity, in the beginning? "I did not tell you [you were diverse] before, because I was with you"

    Hi there, Background So what has become apparent to me, after reading the thread "Why are you a Christian?" that we all have a diverse opinion, of Christ and His saving grace. It has also become apparent to me, in part after reading the thread "Would you surrender your own beliefs, for...

    Strength outside the Law, merely needs a moment - what you do with that moment is up to you (considering?)

    Hi there, So theologically we may identify the Wilderness, as being "outside the Law". Wilderness merely denotes that you are no longer engaging with the Law, to fulfil it, despite the curse (the curse that it can't make whole, only point to wholeness). What we do in the Wilderness, is merely...

    I can't tell you something, because it is still going to be fulfilled and if you thought you could do it in your own strength, we would fail

    Hi there, So I was going to promote something, that I thought was scripturally true, but the Holy Spirit interceded and warned me that I should not make it known. He said that if I made it known, that people would think they could do it in their own strength, and we would altogether fail. Not...

    Why does God allow suffering? If life did not suffer, the spirit of that life would not last long enough (selah)

    Hi there, So the perennial question about God allowing suffering has a simple answer. It is not an answer that changes that we must suffer, just that the suffering has a purpose. That purpose is life-long, and it means that we can acclimatize to the suffering we must endure. Being able to...

    You don't have to like someone, to be kind to them; and you don't have to keep being kind, to be liked (selah)

    Hi there, So the Lord inspired a brilliant quote, in me - and I'm dying to share! You know the Golden Rule, right? What about the Golden proverb? What do you think? Is there longevity in these words? Do they agree with your soul? The power of it, is that this proverb looks at the Golden Rule...

    If there's something in your life, that you always *do*, what would it be like, if you did it less? (thought experiment)

    Hi there, So this is a stretching exercise, for your mind. There is something in our lives, that we always "do". I tend to do things as a "rule" if I can; other people might try to "perfect" something or be "innocent" in a certain way or be "pure" more and more. All these things are good, until...

    Our sin is crucified (in Christ); our place in Heaven is enlarged (selah)

    Hi there, So there are two specific things, that are an encouragement to us, while we dwell on Earth. These two things, the Holy Spirit gives, as consolation to us, for having faith in the Christ and His Resurrection. The first is simple: we simply do not enjoy sin, any more. Our sin is, as it...

    Unless God means everything, to you: you are not acting on the most faith you can (why?)

    Hi there, So I wanted to post this thread, mostly for myself (at least to begin with). I frequently have doubts, that I am living the Christian faith and I have concerns about arbitrary acts of faith, that don't have a standard of some kind. One of those standards that I think applies, is how...

    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...

    If the Holy Spirit teaches and brings to remembrance, the Devil will refuse to remember or be taught (thoughts?)

    Hi there, So there is a simple observation to make here: if the Holy Spirit teaches and brings to remembrance, the Devil will refuse to remember or be taught. As a going concern, that will make things quite difficult for the unbeliever and even for the believer, to the extent that they are in...

    I want to be ready, to help "save" someone specific (in my future, I have faith I will meet them): could you ask for a dream that will help save them?

    Hi there, So I had this idea in general, that we could all pray for dreams that would help - whoever. But I think it confused people what they should be praying they dream. So I have narrowed it down to just one person, who I will meet before the end of my life. I want to be accustomed to how...

    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...

    Enough of the Work that the Holy Spirit has started, will be greatly compelling (selah)

    Hi there, So I have been wrestling with faith, and how to have it, Evolution and how to resist it, and the Lord encouraged me to a point, where I think I understand. What I understand, is that if you believe in Evolution, more is required of you - why is more required, because greater faith has...

    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...

    Fulfilling can be either of the Law or of the Spirit. Discuss.

    Hi there, So I have been wrestling with Evolution some time now, and it has finally spilled out into theology. The reason theology has become involved, is that I have begun to distinguish between the Law and the Spirit. Evolution takes advantage of the Law, making out obedience to be slavery...

    I am itching, Lord have mercy

    Hi there, Ok so this is something that I am struggling with, but I am almost completely certain that it will be of relevance to others, if not of faith then of the world: I am itching. I am itching to get recognition, I am itching to get prophetic vision, I am itching to have power to heal, I...

    The more benign a mutation, the easier and lighter it is to adapt (selah)

    Hi there, So there is a simple truth that I think if you have argued with Evolution at all, you are going to like. It is about addressing the orientation towards change, that is, what the motivation is. As it stands, Evolution is about the subjection of the body to pressure lived out through...
