No worries then, I understand. You just mentioned you loved Tozer's writings so I thought you may have other's you've read and found helpful and aligned with sound doctrine. I too stick to the bible mostly but some teachers and preachers have been helpful to me, such as Tozer. I also listen to...

I understand. I identify with it too. No friends, no family, no fellowship, only Jesus. But He's all I truly need. I went to some local churches but the Lord led me away, I tried fellowshipping in an online fellowship group but the Lord led me away from that too. I tried finding answers by...

There is no purgatory, this life is not a dress rehersal, this is the big show. Right at this moment we are all choosing life or death for ourselves. The only way to eternal life is to die to ourselves at the cross, repent, and live in Christ. A new transformed life, with the Holy Spirit living...

God bless you Christsfreeservent. Your posts are so edifying to those who have ears to hear. Even in our "churches" of today. There are many with bitter hearts of unbelief. So just calling yourself a Christian in name only won't be enough when the true tests of our faith begin. We all need to be...

A big fat AMEN !! to that dear sister. I pray you have a richly blessed day.

This is from chapter 39 of "Man - The Dwelling Place of God, by A. W. Tozer". It spoke to me so I made a video with visuals and music along with the words of Tozer. "The Saint Must Walk Alone" By A.W. Tozer Most of the World’s GREAT SOULS have been lonely. Loneliness seems to be one price...

Amen. It reminds me of the LGBTQI slogan of "love is love" which means absolutely nothing. Real love has a standard, we prove our love by our actions. In this case obeying the commandments. Not being merely readers of the word but also doers. Applying them to our lives and it all hinges on love.

Amen.

I love this post, so well put. To the Church in Ephesus Rev 2:6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate. To the Church in Pergamum Rev 2:15 So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate. Rev 2:16 Repent; or...

And the other key to it I think is being IN Christ doing good works, not just being busy for Jesus doing things. It needs to be done out of love, charity (which isn't just giving money but rather putting others before ourselves etc). We need to obey His commandments, loving God, loving others...

Amen. John 15 shows clearly that we can lose salvation. I. am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. (So God is overseeing those who are in the vine, which is Jesus Christ). 2. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth...

I think there is a difference between occassionally tripping up, which we will all do, and willfully continuing on in a sinful lifestyle once we have come to the knowledge of the truth, using it as an unholy thing. Terms I often hear are things like "sinless perfection" and "salvation by works"...

That is good to hear. Sorry if I have misunderstood anything you've said. It just sounded to me like what the popular hyper-grace preachers teach today which is not a balanced view of scripture. One thing that helped me to understand our salvation process is the ancient Jewish wedding process...

I don't actually agree with the view that we are born again and then nothing is required of us. Once saved always saved. We are eternally saved IF we abide in Christ. There are so many warnings in scripture about falling away from the faith. We still have free will and temptations to overcome...

I think much of this comes down to a confusion of what works is. We are not required to obey the 613 old testament laws. Those "works" aren't what saves us. We don't work earn salvation with good deeds and impressing God. However, once born again we live by faith, in the spirit and produce good...

I know for myself. It was when I came to that place of being broken, empty and not seeing any point in my life, no purpose. I was a broken vessel. Then I asked God "let me know who you are". I wasn't religious, I'm still not. I was ready to make that change. To stop living for myself and start...

I think you are right. My more recent videos I just use instrumental music in the background so, like you say, there aren't voices clashing with my own voice. I've also actually considered keeping dreams to myself. Just using them to guide me. I wonder sometimes if the Lord only wants me to...

That's actually something I had to fight when first born again. Lusting after women. It was tough at first but I even had dreams where I realised someone was trying to seduce me and I said get away from me in Jesus name. Then they fleed from me. The Lord showed me for about a month after being...

I tried a couple of churches. I've also looked around at other churches, at their websites and they alaways seem to say something that puts me right off. Many of them run the Alpha course, not sure if you've heard of that, it's an ecumenical thing. I'll leave it at that. Thanks for the tip...

I know God never changes. So when dreams don't tie up with scripture it causes me to question if they are from the Lord. I'm not a fan of these Youtube channels I see where the whole thing is about dream after dream. But just because some are decieved doesn't mean the Lord doesn't use dreams to...
