truth

Hi there, So there has been a bug bear in my mind, for some time: how do you define God? What about God do you share with the world? The answer to those questions is a bit of a trick, because even though there are many answers (from many people, actually), the truth is God can define Himself...

Hi there, So there is a simple concept that you can bring in to play, in your walk with the Lord: the Spirit renews the Spirit, by reading scripture. This is renewal, not revival. Revival comes when we have imparted scripture to others in a sufficient way. The point is, we should be reading the...

Hi there, So I have been watching the Lord, looking to the Heavens and resisting the Devil (as best I can), and I have begun to perceive a pattern in the Devil's attacks. The Devil has made the nations of the world his focus, and wishes to bring them into a snare (that they are not for God)...

Hi there, So yes, there is a simple calculation you can make on the basis of the choice the Lord gives the Lukewarm Church (Revelation 2). It goes like this: 1) Are you hot or cold? If yes, then you know you have a greater definition than the Lukewarm Church If no, then the question is 2)...

Hi there, So I just wanted to put a word out there, for people to pray for Australia. The Devil wants to destroy this nation, but the Lord won't stand for it. We need to agree with Him, stand and pray, until we reach "touchdown" and God can claim the victory. We are a very young nation...

Hi there, So I just had a revelation of the importance of the body, while on Earth. As Peter says it is a "tent" (2 Peter 1:14) that we must put off in due time. But why are we given it, for the short time that we are? The point is that we are able to shine a little light, before we enter into...

Hi there, So I have been through the whole back sliding thing and come to the conclusion that I both need a second wind and greater grace from God - and this is where the Devil hits me: the Devil says "no, you have become backsliding, there is no more hope for you" and "no God does not want to...

Hi there, So I will be blunt, I have been unequally yoked. It was a fleeting thing, but I have had dysfunction ever since. It occurred to me that their might be other people like me, struggling with being unequally yoked. I think it would be a good thing, for the Church to pray - since the...

Hi there, So there are many things revealed in Heaven and Jesus promised that this generation would by no means pass away, until all the things He spoke of had come to pass. The difficulty is that all of the things mentioned in Revelation about the world, are still being revealed in the upper...

There is much in scripture to mark the growth of a believer in God. Let's compare it to the growth of a tree. The word talks about the roots, the soil, the water that supplies our nutrients and the fruit that is born. Nature's creation reflects the thoughts of God, the love, the beauty and even...

Hi there, So there is a little verse, where Jesus says the Holy Spirit will come to bring all things to remembrance and instruct you in all things. What does this mean? It means that to be ready for the Holy Spirit, we need to be praying for our memories and obedience. If our memories are...

......to become a Christian". When Paul stood before Agrippa to testify of the charges brought against him of insurrection because he preached the freedom of the gospel. Agrippa made this statement ALMOST.....thou persuadest me..... Acts 26 Let's look at what persuasion is. To persuade is to...

Hi there! So I have been working at being closer to Jesus and He suddenly revealed to me, what the Joy of Heaven, is to Him. The Joy of Heaven to the Lord, is that He is able to give praise to the Father. Praise He was denied in this life, is now available to Him (to give to the Father). When...

Contend: 1. struggle to surmount (a difficulty or danger). 2. assert something as a position in an argument. The word contend means to agonize. Agony of spirit and love for the Gospel should be in the heart of every believer. Contending means to fight while standing on the very thing being...

Hi there, So there is a great passage in the Gospels, where Jesus heals a little girl (Mark 5:41). What is remarkable, is that Jesus doesn't say "no, resurrection is for adults", rather He condescends to her and says to her "Talitha cumi" (that is, "I say to you, arise"). The point is, He does...

Hi there, So we have Australia, right? And we all like to think of ourselves as "mates", we don't like someone sticking their head up above the rest, we work hard professionally with the time we have left. But we are under foreign rule! All our decisions are made, as if being dispossessed is...

Hi there, So there is a mystery, right? That the Church is Christ's Bride and we are His Body? How then should we define our Christianity? The truth is we should do it, according to God's Gospel. But there is a lot in God's Gospel, because it includes the Bible (and the Bible includes a lot)...

Hi there, This is just a simple thought, that we don't need to reinvent the wheel theologically. Something like the separation of Church and State, does not need to come and go - at different times for different reasons: the separation is final, because the separation is functional. Other...

Hi there! So good news: the Holy Spirit will provide a way out. The anti-Christ's putting to death, will come to an end - he will no longer have that power. God will do a new thing: He will create a song, dance and festival of the faith. Good times will reign. I hope this has been of some...

Conspiracy; noun a secret plan by a group to do something unlawful or harmful, or to deceive. Conspiracies are sometimes real. The Watergate break-in is a good example of a political conspiracy that actually happened. But thanks to the social-media algorithms that push users toward ever-more-...
