The initial entering into grace is like the 10 lepers being healed... None of it is deserved. It is simply a gift of God, all that is required is that we believe.

But God is looking for more than...

Jesus was more interested in establishing the kingdom of God on earth. So should we be.

Not telling! ;)

I find it funny... Weird even... How some seem to be making fun of pointing out the obvious when this actually led to an important question! :hmm:



He even said 'of course', so looks like he...

Of course! This post is a good thing to ponder! :)

Much of our 'Christianity' in North America is merely cultural and based only on some sort of beliefs we hold to, the same way Muslim's, Hindu's,...

Yes, it's called being a real Christian! ;)

Many reject religion in the name of being real... But they are really carnal, and thus are no more spiritual after rejecting religion. In this case one...

I think the church first needs to become what it is meant to be, then when it is, God will use it. It is God who seeks and saves the lost.... All we can do is be ready and prepared vessel unto every...

I agree with this also! :) Amen!

He choses the weak things to upset the wisdom of the wise.

Amen! :)

If the gifts are not there, there is a reason. Gifts for the sake of gifts is not necessary... Not to say we don't need the gifts, not at all, but God will give them to those who will...

The greater danger of what we have lost from the time of the apostles is that the whole walk in Christ is indeed miraculous. This not only applies to the gifts, but it applies to everything! The...

We should walk in the gifts demonstrating the power of God, but only when doing so promotes the character of Christ. The purpose of the gospel is that we be conformed to Christ Jesus, and the gifts...

There is a difference between what God is building, of which those who are his are the living stones, and what we will be judged by. What makes us fit to be stones in what God is building? What makes...

The world, which is individualistic, leads us straight to the path of Esau, once we are born again, if we follow it. It leads us to think for ourselves, and to do what is best for ourselves, as...

The other option is to give up the comfort of the individualistic life for the sake of the birthright, ie for the sake of being with the brothers, the family of God, although this can be difficult...

Hi all! I haven't posted much lately, I've actually been away on training for a new job... But here's something that hit me today that I thought I should share.

I was reading the back of a book a...

The Bible is not open for our interpretation. It should be taught by the Spirit, and understood according to the Spirit's teaching.

Seems to me they gave you answers :dunno:

Unless forums are like a test, with a teacher, and it's all about getting it right between a), b), and c)...

Let's try this one. Biblicaly speaking,...

While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us... Have we forgotten that we were cleansed? Have we counted ourselves above needing to add patience, love, temperance to our faith?

It is our love, not our bullets, that should reach people's hearts.

Praying for you sister! :pray:

Right to what I was hoping to get to!

Then the next question would be... Which of these ways brings men into the Kingdom? :hmm:

When Paul said he came preaching with power, what did he mean? Manpower? Weapons of mass destruction? Help please! :hmm:

"Today Christians ... stand at the head of [this country]... I pledge that I never will tie myself to parties who want to destroy Christianity .. We want to fill our culture again with the Christian...

The spirit which animates the "patriotic American Christianity" is the exact same spirit that animated the Nazi's. "We are executing God's judgment on this earth". Violence in the name of...

It is so contradictory to see Christians justify violence turning the crucifixion of Christ into an example, as if the Lord's thought was "hold it Peter, this time is different. The time before and...

Jesus says "Let no man take your crown". :)

Yoda, are you? ;)

Welcome to the forums!

Acceptable is challenge, mean you?

I'm happy to see the body rejoicing together! :) :pp:

I feel like the Lord put us through a death as a family... To bring us to have his life in our family! It's neat! :)

Blessings to all of...

Hi all!

Some of you might know through some of my posts that I was recently married, last July that is. My wife is Episkopos' daughter.

Now my wife had been living in chronic pain for about 3...
