I thought it was very clever.

LOL! Now that's what you call perseverance! It's a good one, Jason, thanks for sharing.

It does? Hmmm......I have never gotten that from learning about the Kingdom of God. Interesting.

Putting our faith into God is not a one time event, it's a continual action verb, we keep following and obeying Him. As we practice these things, grow and mature in Christ, we learn there isn't much else to put our faith in. We will either let the world master us or allow God to and we know the...

Wondering where this came from? It sounds cultic. The Kingdom of God is where God rules, it is here, all around us, the Kingdom dwells in some people. I can tell Blake already has the Kingdom of God. He's not only ready for it, He's already partaking of it! Amen! :)

Welcome to the forum, Zoe, I'm glad you're here. Your testimony was a blessing to read, thanks for sharing it. Looking forward to your posts.

The world doesn't know how to help nor cure spiritual matters, but they are really, really good at making money. :)

Whatever is created belongs to the Creator. We get to live here for a bit.

There is still a hole to fill and only God can do that. Christians who are addicted to something else have made that something the god of their lives, it's idolatry.

Wise words, Jack, thanks.

No way, E! I had not even read your post until now. My post was not directed to you at all. My post is only expressing what I believe to be true about human nature, which is: we all have a hole to be specifically to be filled by God. Welcome to cf, I am glad you are here.

I don't have a statistic, but I think recovery rates through programs like this are fairly low. I know someone who went through rehab programs and it wasn't until he was serious about his recovery AND turned his life over to God that real progress was made. In fact, when he cried out to God, he...

Thanks CE, I appreciate yours and everyone else's prayers. Unfortunately she does live a few states over, but I wanted to see her now, before and if her condition worsens (I'm still holding out for a miracle). I will be visiting her again in a couple of months.

Thanks for the prayers everyone. If you could keep praying, we would appreciate it. I saw her over the weekend and she is having major headaches because as the tumor is growing, it's causing swelling in her brain and her eyesight is getting worse. Her mood is ok, but it was a tough visit...

Thank you, Eugene, it means a lot to me.

I'm asking anyone who is led to pray, to please pray for my 48 year old cousin. About 25 years ago, she had melanoma removed from her back area, 6 months ago they found melanoma in her brain and her lungs. They did brain surgery at that time to remove the tumor which was causing bleeding. Last...

I have two boys, 22 and 19, and an 18 year old young man who is just like my son, they all live with me and the 2 older ones attend college. I think it's normal for them to do what your kids are doing. We would love it if they were showing Fruit all the time, but honestly they would make poor...

I would agree with you again, Bill. This verse just popped into my head, showing Christianity was never meant to be a solo journey either, can't have Christianity without His Body at work! :) 1 Cor 12:12 (NIV) Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so...

A young man just asked me this question yesterday (What is a Christian?) and the above verse is the answer I gave him, and I agree with Bill, this is spot on with the question presented in the OP, it is no longer I, but Christ living in me. Due to being long winded sometimes - many times, I...

Churches have so many programs going on today, it's sometimes difficult to pick which one to attend. People just need to make the choice to go and participate.
