Hey, buddy. I have a demon that follows me around. He gets angry and makes noises by banging on things or knocking stuff over but he is there as an answer to prayer. I had a friend who was delivered from one that left her and came back to try and scare her but could no longer control her because...

"I came to you preaching nothing but Christ crucified and a display of the Spirit's power so that your faith may be based on God's power rather than human argument." Now, Paul describes himself as a master builder and this was his focus. Alot of people can't/don't do this. Guess why. XD Anyway...

Well we are encouraged to make our calling and election sure. However, it's still a calling and election. It's also a point to say that our righteousness (acts done without the Holy Spirit behind them; Romans 8:8.) are like filthy rags, but living in the Spirit fully satisfies the law. Romans 8:3-4.

You realize the promise is for mankind, not the angels, right? Is there anywhere in the Bible it says Christ died for all creation?

I think if you just read Revelations straight and some other verses in the Bible about fearing the judgment written by the prophets and apostles, you may find that there is first a judgment of all actions for everyone with punishment and reward, and then the book of life is opened and heaven is...

The Old Testament law no longer applies. See Hebrews 7:11-12.

Is not the latter one from Paul after Jesus?

"No one can come to me unless the Father draws him." "I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith."

And no, you cannot have both. Was Moses able to enjoy all the treasures of Egypt and lead God's people? Was he able to enter the promise land or did he die because of his anger? Was David able to keep his child and have an affair with Bathsheeba? Did Solomon keep his heart? Was Samson's life...

It sounds as though he means to try to compromise you. He wants to keep seeing you in hopes you become like him. He is wrong, though, and this is something you can work through if you're strong enough. But those that are sexually immoral and call themselves Christians are people the church is...

"They refused to love the truth and so be saved."

I think you all are forgetting some key verses here: "If perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood--and indeed the law given to the people established that priesthood--why was there still need for another priest to come, one in the order of Melchizedek, not in the...

The whole of what is being said there is this: "Therefore, since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God." It's clear through other parts of scripture you don't just cut certain...

Souls in prison means what then?

A return to Jesus would result in a calming of tension and an understanding between peoples, for God can act to correct and teach either party where it is wrong, but both sides already think that they are following God, and self righteously justify themselves. However, my Bible tells me to not...

Where does it say souls exist before conception? God breathed into Adam and made him a living being, meaning, God made the whole body and gave it a spirit. Or do you think dead bodies still hold the spirit? God is the one that creates life, if your sex led to conception, that was God's choice...

Oh yeah, I understand, and if I shared the same conviction I'd believe the same way. I'll ask Him to show up with you as well and we can hope whoever is in error might see better. In asking Him to do things, He hasn't failed yet, but it's not often exactly what's expected either. I'm certain...

I'm fine. Really. <.< He already floats around me most of the time in my quiet times and seems to be working in all the people I evangelize to. I'm fairly certain He hasn't shown me anything different about that one particular tradition, but I could ask Him again. But, don't worry about the...

I'll give you this one, but I don't think bread and wine or any tradition get you closer to God. The only real reason the act of remembering in this way means anything is because it's commanded.

A man cannot go wrong if he follows the word of God. It's not people we are living for but Jesus and his commands. God takes our imperfections and uses them, like softening a heart over time, however, God's ability and mercy to do this is not as important as doing what you are supposed to in the...
