Re: Can we know that HE is God?
Shad, Jason is in prayer about this constantly.
Trust the Lord for him. If you see your brother sinning, ask and God grants life.
What Lance is saying is the the very nature of sin is sin. Not just the acting on it.
Lust is the desire /// the thing /// that death pulls on. If there were nothing in him then he would be closer to Jesus. That's what Jason wants for Lance and that is what I want for ME. <this for ME, Lord, THIS for me!>
This is said by Sparrow that the Scripture may be fulfilled: "I spake openly to the world; I taught always in the synagogue, and in the temple," and "and in secret have I said nothing."
I've spoken in parable and in frank open discussion declaring all things here. Any yet they will not hear me. They will not hear, except the One to whom I speak. To this one I wonder, do you not know who you are? It is not yet time for you to be "sent" - the Lord is a Master Fisherman! He loves His net too much and will not cast it out to become entangled within itself, broken and to become discarded. At this moment His hand reaches down. Be Still: Know Him - His sheep know His voice. There is no struggle to know that sound. There is just some "floatsome and jetsome" and junks left in us (His net) and His hand in tender and will quickly remove this. Remember that He is a MASTER fisherman.
His desire it to the NET itself and not the future catch. The things He removes may have been precious in our sight but we have already counted the cost. He made sure of it and we know whom we serve. Yes, we will catch many but now and today we let him prepare. Shhhhhh.... His hand moves toward us. Do you hear the word, "Be still and know that I am God?" Listen and allow. The action isn't an action - it is called "Let". Let Him be your Owner and Let Him say what is in Thee.

Lance is saying he decided to stay celibate, what is wrong with that? I really dont understand why you are objecting his position.
