Brother Mathetes66 you're very welcome. I love your exegesis of the triune God dwelling in us. Of course, I agree with you that it is the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit that indwells us. But according to the scriptures, the Holy Trinity indwells us through the Holy Ghost in us. Then...

“Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?”—1 Corinthian 3:16 The above opening text comes with a great awakening question. It asks , know ye not that ye are the temple of God(The House of God). And that the Spirit of God (The Holy Spirit)...

It is scripturally very evident that God’s utmost desire for his children is health (3John2). But then it’s also scripturally true that Christians’ health can be challenged due to any several reasons… And for the later reason, God has also provided sufficiently for our healing and...

Yes Brother, I agree with you here. Self-condemnation is a proof of unbelief in God's forgiving love and covenant. And should be repented of. While on the other hand, penitence for sin is godly, and leads to repentance unto salvation. And according to scriptures, it doesn't need to be repented of.

Brother, I love so many things in your comment. But I just wanted to ask: do you really think that ongoing repentance, especially when one is convicted he has acted 'unrighteously' is actually sin consciousness? I would rather classify repentance as righteousness consciousness. What do you say?

“Awake to Righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame”—1Corinthians 15:34 The above scripture calls us to awaken to righteousness. That is, we should be righteousness conscious. As it is the ultimate cure to sin. This clarion call is so...

What do you make of the scriptures that says 'when you pray, believe you receive those things which asked for and you shall have whatsoever you say' and 'ask and it shall be given unto you'.

So you mean we shouldn't pray for blessings or expect blessings when we pray? The word of God says contrary. He says whatsoever we ask in prayer, we should believe we receive them and we shall have them. Perhaps if you check the content of his prayers again, you may understand better. God's...

Well, The bible didn't say so. But it does say, while he prayed, an Angel came to strengthen him. That must be supernatural. Wouldn't you agree. And yes, we do receive supernatural strength in prayers. Especially at times when the flesh is weak but the spirit is willing.

Christ already knew the will of the Father. Yet he prayed to the Father, very close to the time of his death. He prayed the Father in case there could be other way out apart from his death on the cross. But from the outcome, it was obvious there was no other way out except his death on the...

From scriptures we see that God changed his plan as a result of people's prayers. Example, you remember Hezekiah and the City of Nineveh. So scripturally, yes our prayers can change God's plan.
