Nearing two years ago, my grandson Noah was born premature and was put on life support with not much hope of living.
Mieke made a little needle point thing with his name and BD.
Noah made to...

Your idea of reading Proverbs and Psalms daily is very good.
Plus, reading the Bible through systematically is fine also.
One thing that really benefits me is to choose one book, preferably a short...
It's interesting that Adam called her Eve but God called her Adam.
Genesis 5:2 Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.
This is one of the most informative threads I've ever read in this forum.
It's needful also because it's making us (me in particular) go back to the beginning and dig a little deeper.
When Adam sinned he began operating in the sphere of flesh. Until Adam sinned he operated in the sphere of the Spirit of God.
He ceased being a spiritual man and became a flesh man and of course as...
The Lord took me out of the independent Baptist Soulwinning movement about 40 years ago when It was in its heyday.
There is nothing there for anyone who wants to grow in grace and learn of Christ. ...
I have flirted with the idea that the giants were people other than the Sons of God and Sons of Seth but the more I've studied the less I believe that's not a probability.
My view of this is the...
Here's something to think about.
Adam called the woman Eve because she is the mother of all living.(Gen 3:20)
God called both of them Adam. (Gen. 5:2)
Names are important because names...
1 Corinthians 15:45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
God breathed into the nostrils of Adam and he became a living...
Life is in the blood.
Jesus Christ is Life.
He's also the perfect sacrifice for our sins.
He came in the flesh.
The only difference between His flesh and blood and ours is He was not affected...
Jesus Christ is the Word become flesh. We can know Him--- spiritually and physically (in the flesh)
God doesn't hold back anything. We're only limited by our humanity. But as we put off this flesh...
I believe the Word of God reveals all there is to know about our Father.
But our knowledge is limited because of our fallen nature.
I believe there are statements in the Bible that seemingly...
I don't normally quote others but since I'm not a Hebrew scholar I have to look to others with more knowledge than me for answers.
One such person is Dr. Roy Blizzard. I don't agree with most of...
That was an interesting vision. God spoke to me that it was real.
One thing that struck me is the person you see as Christ could have been you.
The sinful church will persecute the bride. ...
God is revealing some profound things to you.
I won't try to add to it but trust you will stay in the Word and let God take you deeper into the truths you are teaching.
Good topic.
The idea of making a decision was obscure until Charles Finney came on the scene in the 1820's era.
Before that time there were very few preachers making altar calls and inviting people...
God does take care of our needs above and beyond what we think or ask.
But the Word of God differentiates specifically between being wise or foolish.
Like the wise servant in Matt. 24, we should...
This is an interesting thread.
One point I'd like to make is there seems to be a consensus that persecution only takes place during the tribulation period.
There have been believers who faced...
I don't think they did know they made the perfect choice everytime. You can read their prefence and see what they said about that.
All I know is what I read. I personally perfer one particular...
God has to give us revelation before we can understand His Word. Without revelation, they're just words on paper.
As I said before, I use the King James. In my opinion it's perfect because God gives...
Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.
So many quote the first phrase of verse 1 but ignore the...
Hi Dear Sister in the Lord,
Just a note to let you know that you and your husband Charles are in my prayers.
This is an interesting discussion that I'm enjoying.
As I said, I use the KJB but I don't judge a brother or sisters spirituality by what Bible they read. As long as the reader is determined in...
I'm not an expert but most likely the verses quoted by Cody were from the 1769 Baskerville spelling and wording revision of the 1611 version.
The 1769 edition put it into modern English without...
We'd probably think of a joint heir as someone with whom an inheritance is divided even up. Half to each.
But with Christ, we become all He is. All that the Father gives Him, which is everything, ...
Amen to the verses posted by VerticalRealty.
John 14:18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
John 14:19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me:...
In context it's not flesh and blood so it must be something or someone invisible to the naked eye.
There are two relms. One is darkness and the other one is high places.
Paul says even the devil...
Amen. Jesus Christ is the Word made flesh. He also is the truth. John 14:14 says the Word is truth.
We needed the written word because of our fallen nature. When we're glorifed we won't need the...
