    Would like to pray in tongues

    You can get lost in all this doctrine dispute, or you can try doing something different and see if you get a different result. Jesus says that if you ask to receive the Holy Spirit it will be given. Luke 11:13 (ASV) If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how...

    Do you think hell is on a literal planet?

    No. But it is interesting to try and discover some of God's secrets that He has given us in the Bible to seek out. In this case, the journey is more instructive than the destination.

    Is a 'personal relationship with Jesus' the Gospel?

    Yes. Jesus came to cleanse us so we could be reconciled to God. The forgiveness of sins, does not require much of a relationship, but the trust and faith needed to allow sanctification does.

    Do you think hell is on a literal planet?

    I think hell might be a literal place under the ocean. It seems maybe unclean spirits can't move through water (since they seem to prefer waterless places.) Matt 12:43 "Now when the unclean spirit goes out of a man, it passes through waterless places seeking rest, and does not find...

    God's rest

    , The 10 commandments are still in effect, but when we allow Christ to live in us, God's laws become incorporated into who we are and what we believe and we put obedience to God above even our very life. My death would not offend God. Me flounting His laws does. Jesus repriortizes things.

    God's rest

    I have come to understand that the yoke being referred to is love. The love we have for our children causes us to put them first. Overtime I do believe that we can come to put neighbors and strangers first also. When we can give to all who ask, regardless of whether we have enough for ourselves...

    What does it take to live debt free.

    Several times I have read through just the words of Jesus. And I am always struck by how many times He tells us to care for others, but not to worry about our physical needs. So instead of not always helping others and saying, "God will provide for them." Jesus is asking us to say, "God will...

    Have they found the Ark?

    NOAH'S ARK FOUND in 2010 on Mount Ararat? - YouTube Noah's Ark Found? - The Best Evidence - YouTube Some seem to want us to believe they have.

    What does it take to live debt free.

    For me to live debt free for the last decade, it took faith that God will always provide what He wants me to have. Some seasons have been uncomfortable, but He always brings me through to a good season. If I had not been debt free 7 years ago, I could not have obeyed God's call to come to Laos...

    Miracles, Signs, and Wonders!

    All of my cafe tables along the river were seated. My neighbor chose then to light a trash fire. My customers were engulfed in noxious smoke. I cried out to God and less than a moment later, the wind changed and blew the smoke into the neighbor's house. So they ran out with a bucket of...

    Prophets or fortune tellers

    Read all of Amos (with special attention to Chapter 8). Look not for what God says He is going to do, but look for why He is going to do those things. Really reveals alot about the heart of God.

    What Percentage of Today's Prophecy is Legitimate?

    100% of today's prophecy is legitimate. If it's not legitimate, it's not prophecy.

    Prophets?

    :kiss:Not all saints that are to be saints are saints yet. So my work continues until the Lord calls me home. BTW, the entire tone of your post, gives me the creepy feel of how a cult manipulates people: Condescension, unnecessary correction and excessive scripture poorly interpreted.

    Hearing from God...how often?

    My experience has been diverse. During the 3 years of preparation, there was a lot that God had to teach me, so I heard from Him alot. Not everyday, not every week, sometimes not every month, but sometimes it seemed like all day for days, depending on what was going on. But over those years...

    Miracles, Signs, and Wonders!

    I went to the local hardware store to buy a section of rebar (steel rod) They didn't carry the larger size I wanted but I asked for a meter of it anyway. While I waited I realized that a meter was not enough and I needed closer to 2 meters. I went inside to change the order but before I could...
