    Is FAITH ALONE Enough?

    The term hyper grace gospel covers it. What is hyper-grace? | GotQuestions.org I did not believe anyone would follow this view until various teachers turned up and supported it. One famous teacher is Joseph Prince from Singapore. One such follower said simply a christian could murder someone...

    Is FAITH ALONE Enough?

    I have debated folk who do exactly that. And emotional defeat and desperation causes some odd compromises.

    Is FAITH ALONE Enough?

    There is a different way of looking at this. We are emotional creatures who are mucked up at birth because we cannot speak to our Father or know Him. We are alone, isolated and have to fight for recognition and only know grabbing our stuff and keeping it out of the hands of others. Jesus came...

    Alone too much

    I was thinking about this issue recently. I work alone at my software day in day out. It is done alone, and in the quiet or noisy as I choose. But I am not lonely. The reason is the contacts I have I have chosen and I seek out to connect to "my" group, those people who I have a natural...

    Beatitudes: Steps To Christ

    My testimony of coming to Christ, is understanding the gospel in ideas and then beginning to see it as reality, emotionally the Lord of all creation, becoming a man and dying for me. Crazy, awe inspiring, heart changing, heart breaking, overwhelming, forgiving, putting our value of life and...

    Beatitudes: Steps To Christ

    It does not occur to many Jesus is not just saying these people over there like this with one of these features are blessed, but He is describing Himself and His approach to life. I used to feel it was something alien to my emotional life, but now I understand the way of heaven is empathy with...

    "Depart from me i never knew you". #1

    The problem in these discussions and interpretation is the meaning people put on words like "I never knew you" and "salvation" Jesus highlights evildoers who claim Him as Lord, who Jesus disowns. If one is repentant and desiring to put Jesus's words into action Jesus knows us. The group Jesus...

    attacking another denomination are included in this rule.

    I agree with what you have expressed. I would add though something Jesus said about the Kingdom of heaven. It is like a seed that grows into a massive tree. I see as in the parable of the seed and the sower, the fruit of the people of God are Gods words in living form spread to others. The...

    attacking another denomination are included in this rule.

    This is a good feeling to have. I also have this experience, but it is a feeling all the same, with its limitations. Mary is an interesting individual in Jesus's life, being His mother. Jesus went out of His way to emphasis all women in the Kingdom are part of His family, and His mother also...

    attacking another denomination are included in this rule.

    The problem with visions is us. Our minds resolve issues by creating realities that push us in the best direction they need. I saw how Hindus can love their gods. You get the image and a feeling, and it all slots into place. Guys on LSD see the most profound colours, but it is just colours...

    attacking another denomination are included in this rule.

    Two situations, a prayer and recovery are two things but faith links them. My own position is based on God's word and intentions. Amen that prayer is answered, but I refrain from talking to dead people because that is banned behaviour. It is banned simply because there is no way to tell lies...

    A interested question, if the dead are alive and can hear us, how are they less than God?

    attacking another denomination are included in this rule.

    I have always found the fascination with Mary and the saints as rather odd. It seems that people find various images or ideas appeal to them more so they find this way of thinking about God speaks to them. My shock was to find in Sri Lanka I could not tell Hindus apart from Catholic believers...

    attacking another denomination are included in this rule.

    Jesus did not attack the pharisees and rulers for their title or role, but rather hypocrisy and the teaching given. Salvation is about love and knowing God, a righteous walk, and seeing things rightly from within. Once you grasp this, the failure of any group is not a failure at all, it is the...

    My new book is out! "The Sum of All Possibilities in Christ"

    Over thinking rather than heart caring. The Lord forgave Nineveh because His heart desired the repent rather that face destruction. Was very profound, God bless you

    My new book is out! "The Sum of All Possibilities in Christ"

    Hi Stunnedbygrace, Unfortunately I do not know ProjectPeter so this is news to me. I am just being honest about my reaction to being told I am a religious lost believer is to simply refute this. I have listened to some preachers who put some very good points but their framework is wrong, and...

    My new book is out! "The Sum of All Possibilities in Christ"

    On the subject of what I have to go on, the emotional intent of a movement is enough to know its meaning. If the source of revelation is one individual, with a unique view, that can only be got through them, they have become Gods oracle of reality and insight. It is a common theme at the start...

    My new book is out! "The Sum of All Possibilities in Christ"

    Have you ever wondered my friend why scripture is so small and yet so large? The sermon on the mount is only 1 sheet of A4. The words of Jesus are put only into 4 gospels. You think this is what amount to religious ideas, or not enough. Jesus called His words eternal, never ending, true here...

    My new book is out! "The Sum of All Possibilities in Christ"

    Emotional context not literal...most of our sharing is emotional context. We will never be in heaven, we will be on a new earth with God dwelling with us. In an emotional sense this is heaven, so the summary is to be in heaven. Equally most believers know the first steps, and follow their...

    My new book is out! "The Sum of All Possibilities in Christ"

    My friend I have no conditioning. I just hear Jesus saying simple things. Critical thinking tells me it is you who wish to impose your conditioning or view on to my perspective and claim it is the real meaning. What I have discovered is Jesus is the simple truth, it is us who put up barriers...
