I'm done with politics. It has had a detrimental spiritual impact on me. I still stand for what I know is right and I'll still vote, but I am not going to debate and/or fight anymore. And I'm staying away from anything that would be a trigger for me. Perceived ongoing injustice is something...

Can a man who is living with another man's wife come to saving faith in the Lord Jesus Christ without abandoning the relationship?

After wrestling with the subject of predestination for a while, I came to reject both the calvinistic and armenianist position based on a personal revelation that was very profound: God doesn't "choose" the same way we do in the temporal world. By our standards, God cannot choose anything. Why...

I have only been saved a couple of months but already I have become disillusioned with certain elements of every church! People want material things and no one wants to be 100% focusing on Jesus 100% of the time. I feel led to just buy a bus ticket to a certain city, a few clothes, only a few...

I want to give my testimony in the hopes that people might see the power of God. I also encourage any other prodigals out there to go home. After being backslidden for 16 years, I gave my whole life to Jesus. Afterwards, my mind was blown when I familiarized myself with the prodigal son and...

There are so many selfish Christians and I am definitely one of them. Yet can you imagine perfect love...where a man lays down his life for his friends. Where you have died to self completely, Christ raised in you, and you are totally consumed with saving and feeding souls. God had nothing to...

As Christians, have we been crucified to this world so Jesus might be raised in us? May we remember that the opening verses of Genesis 1 is Christianity in a nutshell: we were formless, void and full of darkness...yet the spirit of God moved upon us and spoke His Word into us. Now, we are good...

One thing the Lord has shown me is that to follow Christ (and following Christ means evangelism and ministry) is to pay the cost. I think a lot of people in today's church think one can just sit in church to their own edification and feed the sheep out of convenience. Well Jesus fed them His...

You would think these people would pick up a Bible from time to time. If you fornicate, commit sodomy, lie continually, love the world (secular stuff), booze it up, etc... Guess what? You are unregenerated and dead. Saving faith is action. Pick up your mat and walk. Lip service means diddly...

I never intended to return to these forums but I have to share something which terrified me. I prayed for wisdom concerning Rev 13 and had a dream that night. I DO NOT KNOW for sure if this is true or from God...though it is interesting. Take it with a grain of salt and remember the Bible is...

There are wolves in sheep's clothing, evil powers and principalities in high places. This forum is no different. What fellowship can light have with darkness? For this reason I am leaving this forum and I will not return. But before I go, I want to tell you what it means to be a disciple for...

I just wanted to share a little devotional/mini-testimony that has been impressed upon my heart by the Spirit of God. Once upon a time in my life, a person hurt me quite badly and caused my utter humiliation. And for a long time after I would dream up fantasies of getting even. And I understand...

In fact, I give my loyalty to Russia over the United States. I am a Christian, and a follower of Jesus Christ. When Jesus walked this earth - people expected Him to oppose the Roman occupation. He didn't. His Kingdom is not of this world. The fact of the matter is that the United States, and...

Could you do it blindfolded?

I want to have a good testimony in all things, and this thread was very foolish and I ask that a mod delete it as well as this one. Jehovah, El, YHWH, etc - NOT the God of Israel (Please Delete) Both are complete rubbish - my heart wasn't completely right. According to the spirit of God.

The Father provided the Way. John 3:16 The Word is the Truth, whom who sets us free. John 1:1 John 8:31-32 The Spirit is the Life. John 6:63 For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. Colossians 2:9 I am sure many must know this, and I thank JESUS for allowing me to see it.

Very often I come across the argument that a loving God cannot send a person to hell. And while the usual reply is that people send themselves there, this fact is sometimes seen as irrelevant under the assumption that, once in hell, people will be begging for God to forgive them. But I'm not so...

Total rubbish, my heart was not right, please delete.

I began thinking that human evolution can be reconciled with a literal approach to the creation of Adam and Eve, but the only way to do this is with the idea of an Adamic Race. The idea is still very new to me and not at all fleshed out, but here are the main points: 1. Humans, like all...

I've been on this forum before but mainly seeking knowledge, discussing prophecy, theology, those type of things. Those things have always interested me - even after I left church and fell into sexual sin. But since then, I haven't really got into any of the real Christian stuff. I believe in...
