    Hit me or you die!

    That's avoiding the question. Would you lean on your own understanding if you received a word from the Lord and go against it?

    Losing the fear of an eternal hell

    Whoa...i'm certainly an outlier here then. Then his master summoned him and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with me. 33 And should not you have had mercy on your fellow servant, as I had mercy on you?’ 34 And in anger his master delivered him to...

    Losing the fear of an eternal hell

    There is weeping and gnashing of teeth outside of God's house. It is not me that is true, its the word that is true. No, its not a pretty scene. No, it wounds me that there are people that choose death as Moses wrote in Deuteronomy 30:19. Why choose the curse? The answer is, they love the...

    Losing the fear of an eternal hell

    Interesting, I'll have to meditate, chew on the cud a bit from that word study. I've heard of something like this doctrine but thru another route. I talk to quite a bit of people in different backgrounds, different faith levels. In truth, it is written: If anyone imagines that he knows...

    Losing the fear of an eternal hell

    Judas is a good example for a lot of reasons. To betray Christ with a kiss, what a thing that is. What a lot of people don't understand was that Peter was separated as well for a time. As Jesus said, Satan was going to sift Peter and, to me, that means he was going to take the seed planted in...

    Losing the fear of an eternal hell

    Wow, nice! How exciting a question. I had to answer non-denominational for this site but I'm more inter-denominational, meaning i do not have an absence but a mergence of faith. I once was Baptist, then more Pentecostal after receiving the Spirit. Baptecostal? Now, all I see is the Body. There...

    Losing the fear of an eternal hell

    Yes sir, joyful. I was thinking, finally, I can release that word. Maybe another can receive that in their heart. Salvation? Salvation is a very low bar for entry, I don't think Jesus can set it any lower, he made himself a slave to all and is exalted above all, I believe (Mark 10:43-45) points...

    Hit me or you die!

    Keep in mind that many prophets and righteous men have desired to see and hear what we see and hear this day. (Matthew 13:17). So, you are trying to inhabit what was going on in the Old while in the context of the new. In short though, it would be based off of your own principle, and not of...

    Who leads that whole ragtag bunch? The cowards. Lord, let us not be led in fear of the enemy's report but in fear of ever departing your house.

    Losing the fear of an eternal hell

    I've been waiting a very long time for someone to ask. You are the temple of God. (1 Corinthians 3:16). Christ is the foundation and the temple is built on top of the foundation, precept by precept, line by line, here a little, there a little; one inhabits the word. The one who seeks him...

    Losing the fear of an eternal hell

    Ah, that's my naivete in the use of quotes with this site, I apologize. I think i see now how to correctly quote. Thank you so much for your questions. I'm actually here to bring fire to what I've built on the foundation. I'd rather see it here than on the day where we will experience great...

    Losing the fear of an eternal hell

    Yes sir, I brought up that verse more out of wariness in my own heart of the question asked. What I was searching for was a reverence to the word so it may be authoritative, for we believe, in our hearts, not minds. The whole word, for to receive in part is to be only a part. To explain this...

    Freedom or No?

    For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few. (Matthew 7:14) Few find the path, but why? Indeed, in their case the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled that says: “‘“You will indeed hear but never understand, and you will indeed see but never...

    Losing the fear of an eternal hell

    Not sure how that would be a question for someone in Christ. There is a scripture about relaxing one of these commandments being called least in the kingdom. Something I have learned recently is this: May all men be made false and only Him true, for there is no truth, no Word within any us...

    Jesus' suffering...?

    When He spoke to Pilate, it was to take authority from Pilate, was not to deter Himself from the cross: Jesus answered him, “You would have no authority over me at all unless it had been given you from above. Therefore he who delivered me over to you has the greater sin.” (John 19:11 ESV) He...
