    The life in Jesus, is like a new leaf! (growing?)

    Hi there, So I just realised that the words Jesus spoke about new wineskins - that you don't put new wine into old wineskins - applied to Jesus facing the cross. Jesus didn't try to put the old Jesus on the Cross, but tried to put the new Jesus on the Cross. This is a marvelous thing to me...

    What is the sin, when you are trying to force God's Hand? (conceit?)

    Hi there, So look, the thing is I have a very peculiar relationship to God. I'm of the opinion that God is reserving judgment, until He sees what I am doing and then He is leaving me out of the difference (that I make?). Because I feel nervous, I try to get God to play His Hand, because I feel...

    Just repeat, the faith! (you don't need to reinvent the wheel?)

    Hi there, So I have worked out that: I believe what you do! There is no need to reinvent the wheel. Jesus died once for all, and rose from the dead. The Grace of God abounds in the acceptance within, of what Christ did on the cross. There is no need for a new faith. There is no need for a new...

    Do you not understand that what goes into the body, goes into the stomach, and is eliminated? (Jesus!)

    Hi there, So just taking inspiration from Jesus, it is evident that eating disease does not make us sick. If eating disease made us sick, Jesus would have said "be sure that you do not eat disease, for it will kill you". No! Nothing passing into the body, into the stomach, does anything but get...

    Jesus preached in Hell, many ways; and Jesus empowered Death, concerning the one truth (model behaviour?)

    Hi there, So when trying to grasp what Jesus did and how He did it, it is a little difficult to know where to start or to what extent. That's because after having descended from the Cross, and committed Himself to the grave, Jesus did something peculiar in Hell and created a work of Death. What...

    You've got to pray for my Nation, the Devil wants to destroy it and the watchmen sleep! (Lord returning?)

    Hi there, So I just wanted to put a word out there, for people to pray for Australia. The Devil wants to destroy this nation, but the Lord won't stand for it. We need to agree with Him, stand and pray, until we reach "touchdown" and God can claim the victory. We are a very young nation...

    We are given this body ("this tent") temporarily, let your light shine through it while you've got it! (bright?)

    Hi there, So I just had a revelation of the importance of the body, while on Earth. As Peter says it is a "tent" (2 Peter 1:14) that we must put off in due time. But why are we given it, for the short time that we are? The point is that we are able to shine a little light, before we enter into...

    In Heaven, you are safe. Nothing can come to where you are, in Heaven. (at peace?)

    Hi there, So this is just a simple thought: we are safe in Heaven. The Bible says that the anti-christ will blaspheme those who dwell in Heaven, and its easy to think he knows what he is doing: but he doesn't. The anti-christ does not know what is in Heaven. So if you are in Heaven, you just...

    It's your responsibility to stay in faith, until you grow. Fidelity, grows the soul. (growing?)

    Hi there, So something that really helped me, a lot, when I realised it, was that it is our responsibility to remain in faith, until we grow. This is a delegation of talent, that God has given us, to be patient and expectant. If we are patient, our faith will remain alive to us; if we are...

    The Devil is trying to choke my faith; the Devil says "you're not allowed to believe, unless you have from the start" (its making me mad!)

    Hi there, So I have been through the whole back sliding thing and come to the conclusion that I both need a second wind and greater grace from God - and this is where the Devil hits me: the Devil says "no, you have become backsliding, there is no more hope for you" and "no God does not want to...

    What was Jesus going to do, before He became focused on saving us (from sin)?

    Hi there, So I am just wondering, if Jesus was inspired to make His life a sacrifice, what would He have done, if we hadn't needed saving? I'm not saying we didn't need saving, but was saving in preference to something else? Like would He have dedicated His life to building the Temple? Or would...

    Please pray for people who are unequally yoked - your faith comes easy and lightly, but theirs is like a sea of doubt (testing?)

    Hi there, So I will be blunt, I have been unequally yoked. It was a fleeting thing, but I have had dysfunction ever since. It occurred to me that their might be other people like me, struggling with being unequally yoked. I think it would be a good thing, for the Church to pray - since the...

    The anti-christ rejects "birth", and so is unable to be born again (slavery to sin?)

    Hi there, So I've been thinking about the Holy Spirit and the Holy Spirit was preparing me for the anti-christ. And the question arose in my mind "why doesn't the anti-christ just come?" (thinking in myself that I am ready to face him) and the Holy Spirit basically said "because he rejects...

    Is the anti-christ, the son of the false prophet? (link?)

    Hi there, So this has been annoying me for some time: when is the anti-christ going to appear? The thing is, if you need to know when he is going to appear, you need to know with what power? Why? Because once the anti-christ is there, there will be a struggle over that power. Now, I know this...

    The blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, is different for all but the Sinful Arrester (free?)

    Hi there, So there has been some question about the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, from time to time - as people grapple with whether they are beyond forgiveness or not. Some people say "I have blasphemed the Holy Spirit!" but they don't know how or to what extent. Other people give answers like...

    The Two Witnesses, were witnesses to the light (the dream of light, the vision of light) (telling?)

    Hi there, So there is a little bit of speculation about who the Two Witnesses were - indeed you are free to ask the Holy Spirit, if you would like - but I thought it might help to just contextualize their ministry a little. The Two Witnesses were witnesses of the Light. There were two angles...

    To be in agreement with the Holy Spirit, you need to pray that your memories be ready and your obedience available (charged?)

    Hi there, So there is a little verse, where Jesus says the Holy Spirit will come to bring all things to remembrance and instruct you in all things. What does this mean? It means that to be ready for the Holy Spirit, we need to be praying for our memories and obedience. If our memories are...

    Jesus is waiting, to praise the Father; be a reason for Jesus, to praise the Father (songful?)

    Hi there! So I have been working at being closer to Jesus and He suddenly revealed to me, what the Joy of Heaven, is to Him. The Joy of Heaven to the Lord, is that He is able to give praise to the Father. Praise He was denied in this life, is now available to Him (to give to the Father). When...

    Iniquity robs the child, but the Lord is able to command a lesser resurrection (in need of someone coming down to your level?)

    Hi there, So there is a great passage in the Gospels, where Jesus heals a little girl (Mark 5:41). What is remarkable, is that Jesus doesn't say "no, resurrection is for adults", rather He condescends to her and says to her "Talitha cumi" (that is, "I say to you, arise"). The point is, He does...

    Soul dies for soul, that's the soul (selah)

    Hi there, So this is a simple proverb, its not meant to be complicated. The question of which soul dies for which, does complicate it - but only in the sense that the soul can die for soul other than itself. For example the soul can die for the soul of a friend. The soul is still the soul, but...
