Deeper Fellowship...

[StMatthew2429]

Well I did explain ... and you highlight the problem by not realising that weare a bunch of sinners and have no basis to exclude anyone ... also that Jesus promised all truth to those who truly followed him [John 16:13] and ver few seem to realise that the fact that we don't have all trut of God indicates equally that we don't have the baptism of the spirit required for entering the kingdom...

Thus it is a sort of madness to exclude discussion of the truth of God from fellowship since this is one way we mifgt co-oeratively and collectively acquire a little more by allowing reproof of our ideas to scripturewhen we find any disagreement [indicating that one or more does not have the one truth of God if we disagree]

Who is excluding anyone?

What is your point?

A little more what?

I think you are combining sinning which we all share with your definition of "truth of GOD"? Is that right? I realize I may be way off but please show me the light...

Thus, I'm trying really hard to understand your point...

I have a serious problem here, other people do not seem to understand the same thing by deeper fellowship as I do ???

....

I think that her opening post for this thread will explain what is has attempted to accomplish..

God bless..

Good Morning, Stranger..

I believe.. and she can confirm for you, that when MeekOne originated this thread that she was looking for an area of Deeper Fellowship in Edification and Exhortation of the members.. not as an area to discuss & debate Spiritual Issues.. there are many other threads that do that..

Respectfully, your sister in Christ...

Hi there GlendaJoanne,
Well I haven't yet found a place to discuss the truth with Jews, in particular Messianic Jews , which I have a wish to do...
And I do not see how one eherts anyone without reproof to the scripture which involves some friendly discussion I would have imagined ...
I see how Jesus fellowshipped with people and this just isn't the same as that ... and it puzzles me that it is called fellowship but it involves fences and excluding the very things that are required for fellowship

Why don't you start a new thread yourself? Under the Congregational area.. Messianic Judaism.. Perhaps you could title it "Discussing the Truth"

I think that MeekOne was trying to create a Spiritual Serene Location where everyone would feel free to come when they are in need of prayer.. free of arguing & controversy..

Hope your day after Thanksgiving is going well..

May God bless you always,

Glenda

I know I need a deeper and closer walk with the Lord. It is not my brother nor my sister O Lord, but it is me standing in the need of prayer.

Later folks,

None of us are safe for a day or an hour without prayer. Those who have been buried with Christ in baptism, and been raised in the likeness of His resurrection, have pledged themselves to walk in newness of life.

The only way we can walk with God is to come out from the world and be separate.

It's the day after THanksgiving (or was)...I had a sobering experience with my family..none of it made any sense and it came from nowhere. Please pray for me, my family.

Thanks.

 

[angelwind]

Lord, I don't know what happened here with brinny's family...but it meant something to her...the family needs help...Lord You are our helper and deliverer...bring them peace and stability in You...let their roots of love grow even deeper in You...thank You Lord.

I agree. Believe it or not, there was disagreement with this with my family....whether to pray together before 'dealing' with each other about a coming-from-nowhere-uproar...there is NO way 'dealing' can be done in the flesh.

Dealing with ANYTHING in the flesh is leaving God out of it because we can do it on our own? Really? It was like my family had been replaced by aliens...it was like I didn't know who they were, and yes, they are Christians.

It is a sorry state of affairs. I don't even know what to say to God at this point. I'm speechless.

I don't know what happened either. The most baffling of all is that there was resistance to praying together to bring it before God. Where else are ya gonna take it?

I am at a loss.

Thank you for praying. Please keep praying. When I shut down, my prayers sorta freeze....I just get speechless....and my mind goes blank.

Thank you angelwind.

Please pray for me and for Stacey. Her daughter left my son some disturbing voice mails last night. They are 12 and she wanted him to come and visit her. NOT! I am very upset and have sent what I think is an appropriate email to her mother, Stacey. I have spelled out the boundaries, but I think she will be angry. Pray for God's protection for my Josh and for me, please. It is rough where I live. I try to stay to myself and to help out when it is obvious that I am called to do so. Treading water here financially and spiritually. Thanks friends.

God, please be with Brinny in a special way. We know that family is a trying place for our Christianity, at least it has been for me. It has been a place where I have had to learn to forgive and forget and forgive again. My family do not profess to be Christians. But, I have had to repent over and over again of my faults. But, that is me. God protect Brinny and help her to make sense of all these things that transpired. Help her to see any good from all this. Heal anything hurting, bless and protect her emotionally. Get her to the right spiritual friends and calm her. God Bless you my sister in the Lord. Be healed.

Ok Madam. May Lord give you and little Josh wisdom to deal with the bothering relationship. Honesty and dexterity will be powerful and helpful for you .

There y'go, so much for serenity, my thread was just deleted... so much for love and truth in fellowship ...

any other ideas on how to get to serenely discuss in fellowship without censorship?

 

[StMatthew2429]

I have no desire whatever to do anything but discuss God's scripture as Jesus did in the very deepest fellowship with all men , all I have asked is where I can do that and all i get is people attacking me and saying we don't fellowship in truth here , so where can I , I'm fed yupwith being hassled when all Iwant to do is discuss and no-one will do it on what is supposed to be a fellowship on a christian discussion site ... this is madness and now i get warnings, for what, I only want totalk, i am notselling or teaching anything... Jesus help me the world is going crazy and no-onewill tell me where i can discuss these things with Jews and Messianics with whomI particularly want to discuss them... why do you not love me and be helpful instead of rejecting me and warning me and attacking me for things i did not do... this is supposed to be a christian site, not a madhouse ...

PM me and I will give you some sites where you will get your moneys worth in argumentive judgmental discussion in the "christian" sense.
If thats what you really want...
...and for someone like yourself who seems to have all the answers for everything , one would assume that you could find these places on your own...
Otherwise I suggest talking to a good Pastor or Preacher, Rabi, or whatever you are into...
or maybe GOD.
That allways works for me.

Lord, please show brother stranger the path to the destination he seeks. We know his heart is true Lord, and we just ask in the name of our savior Jesus Christ if you can just point the light to his ideal website. This would mean so much to him Lord, so much indeed, for his soul crys for fellowship that your amazing CF just could not create Lord. We come to you and pray in Jesus's name, AMEN.

Mornings are not my best time I often feel very emotional and today was no exception.
I wrote a message to someone and this word suddenly came to my heart.

'Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.
They are new every morning,
great is Your faithfulness {lametations 3}

God's Word brought life and healing to my soul Alleuia.
