    Charismatic Bible Studies - 1 Peter 2:11-17

    LoL! Quite Biblical. I think that's why we need to stress ministering words of grace about others in times of peace. What will some do if we truly begin experiencing not just disdain but genuine persecution some day?

    Charismatic Bible Studies - 1 Peter 2:11-17

    This is good! :thumbsup2 My answer here would be to have the churches pray for both, as if honoring them, for things just like this; the positives that they could bring to the country. It was also become a type of teaching lesson to younger people in the church that this is what we do as...

    There's also Phinehas, who put a sword right through an Israelite leader who was in league with a Midianite woman. and in that sense he was like a type of political leader who was trying to dissuade the Israelites away from following Moses and turn them to the worship of the pagan gods of Midian...

    Ok, but now keep in mind that the passages I quoted were written after Nero had already initiated severe persecution against the Christians, and the Romans were indeed doing serious harm to people too, in particular to believers. But there doesn't appear to be any command to the church at large...

    Wonderful point, and an often overlooked verse of scripture. The Gnostics were notorious for down-mouthing everyone, including God and the angels, believing themselves to be superior. But as Jude also said, they didn't even have the Spirit (Jude 1:19). What they actually had were demonic...

    A Young Boy's Love for God

    I read a few of your poems, and yes, I think God is as close to children as He seems, because He draws close to the heart, and the hearts of children are often filled with innocence and wonderment at the creation God has provided. Found your video relaxing. Blessings in Christ, Hidden in Him

    A look at 1 John 3.6

    Illogical analogy. The seed doesn't cause the seed to grow, water causes the seed to grow. The Holy Spirit is compared to water in scripture, such as in Isaiah, where it states: For I will pour water on the thirsty land, and currents on the dry ground. I will pour out My Spirit on your...

    Charismatic Bible Studies - 1 Peter 2:11-17

    I never actually came to a conclusion on it during the time. One of those rare occasions where I was a little conflicted and just left it alone. But then I wasn't attending a church I really liked at the time either, so I didn't really have a horse in the race or I may have protested a little...

    A look at 1 John 3.6

    Yes, Christ is the word made flesh. But now you have to take each verse in its context to know exactly how a word is being used. I'm simply showing you like I did Hopeful in Post #46 that the scriptural support elsewhere is strongly in favor of interpreting "seed" there to mean the word when it...

    Yes, people like Copeland are the epitome of the whole "Faith" version of prophecy, and he topped it off by "blowing away" Covid-19 by an "act of faith" during one service, and that went viral and stayed viral for almost two years while the Covid epidemic went virtually nowhere. Very bad look. I...

    Charismatic Bible Studies - 1 Peter 2:11-17

    That may have actually been what he meant. There is a spirit of the Antichrist, and a spirit of the false prophet. They manifest through various people who are not THE Antichrist, but are nevertheless walking in that spirit, to where the expression "the Antichrist" means "the Antichrist spirit,"...

    I haven't searched out everything Sadhu has said, but I have great respect for him and I think he has a very good understanding of how things work, especially at the presidential level. Things are IN PLAY when you have that many people who could be potentially praying about an issue, and it all...

    Charismatic Bible Studies - 1 Peter 2:11-17

    Man, this is such a good post. If it's Christianity Board, yes, I was there during that time. And that became the switch off. They decided to still hold to the prophecies and apply them for years down the road. I haven't received anything directly from the Lord yet, so I'm not really sure what...

    This is possibly the saddest part of it all, Randy, and I spoke with several people who had similar sentiments. Most weren't disillusioned with the Faith, but they did become disillusioned with the prophetic. My personal take here is that it HAD to take place. There were way too many people in...

    You know, I think I'd agree with you. Some churches disobeyed and the whole darn congregation got sick. That's my fault. I've gotten lazy lately, so I'm actually paraphrasing half the time without even looking it up. I just know it's there, Lol.

    A lot of people couldn't. I actually interpreted a dream over at another forum about 3-4 months in advance of the election that said he was going to lose, not win, but I was certainly in the minority, and several people resented me for saying it. But it was admittedly confusing, because I...

    A look at 1 John 3.6

    Ok, but now look at the parallel passage in 1st Peter: 22 Since you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit in sincere love of the brethren, love one another fervently with a pure heart, 23 having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the...

    I will never forget the horror of October 7, 2023. 1,200 innocent people, including 46 Americans, were massacred by Hamas terrorists. Women raped on the side of the road. 250 people kidnapped. It was the deadliest day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust. What Hamas did that day was pure...

    Winning Darkness Over To Light Through Love, Not Condemnation, Part 1 Another Presidential election is almost here in the United States, and the ugliness and vitriol are at fever pitch once again. Demonic spirits are goading men into divisiveness and strife, and there seems to be no end to...

    A look at 1 John 3.6

    Yes he does, but you keep jumping around a lot rather than dealing with the actual verse at hand, which you keep trying to retranslate into various things which are not found in the text. What that generally means, Live2B, is that you are attempting to make the scriptures say something they do...
