    Praise God, Israel was strong enough, for Christ to be revealed (you have strength too?)

    Hi there, I just wanted to point something very special: Jesus might never have come to Earth, if there was no nation on Earth strong enough for Him to be revealed in them. If Israel was weak and did not revere God in strength, there might have been no way for the Lord to come. This is not to...

    Could the world have hallucinated that the Christ was here on Earth, and had hope in the resurrection in the end? (suffering?)

    Hi there, So this is not meant as a criticism of the faith; I am not saying the world actually hallucinated Christ. The real benefit of this question, is when it comes to our own faith: how deep is it? do we know the difference between suffering in Heaven and suffering on Earth? For example...

    Sometimes God doesn't remove a doubt, because it isn't the right time to remove it (still?)

    Hi there, So a little help for my brothers and sisters in Christ, who are all struggling (bar the foolishmost). God doesn't always remove doubt. I have been in the faith and away (from the faith) and been back again (even back to the end), and I can attest that this is true. My past sins are...

    I took my medication, and had a perfectly natural desire to vomit them up (pity?)

    Hi there, So I am writing this just to process what I am going through mentally, right now, as well as be a beacon to those that struggle with a similar issue (a medication issue). I have been taking my meds consistently for months, even years, gradually getting better and better with or...

    The details of Revelation, are still being revealed in the upper levels of Heaven - on Earth we can only look to the Heavens with trepidation (lost?)

    Hi there, So there are many things revealed in Heaven and Jesus promised that this generation would by no means pass away, until all the things He spoke of had come to pass. The difficulty is that all of the things mentioned in Revelation about the world, are still being revealed in the upper...

    An opinion, is not a legal object (what is?)

    Hi there, So there is a simple distinction to make - which I want to explore here, because I want to go beyond the limits of the stated subject - between a legal and a non-legal object: there is opinion, and there is law. An opinion is not a legal object, but may influence the Law; a law is a...

    I love you guys! Even if a terrorist hacks my computer and sends me into unpayable debt, so that I can't come any more, I will love you!

    Hi there, So God has been dealing with me about loving the flock and how I keep coming here to be appreciated for my knowledge of scripture and how love is more than just recognition. So I am posting as the Holy Spirit has prompted, that I show that I love you guys and that my God has your best...

    A mature Christian, makes work a priority (selah). Discuss.

    Hi there, So there is a simple point here, that I think people have tried to nail for some time, but which is expressly easier to interpret with the help of the Holy Spirit. We are not saved by works, but once maturity is reached, the decision to make "works" a 'priority' is foreknown...

    What is God's "Plan" For You?

    A Discussion. A friendly Note I'm interested in having a Bible discussion on the topic of this thread. What that means, is, the Bible must be used, but not just quoting or referencing without explaining or commenting on the text. This is important, because the text may be understood differently...

    Ten Power Exhortations - January 14, 2018

    If we do not allow God to move us from glory to glory, we will get caught up in living in an old season. As the Holy Spirit moves us, the methodology of an old season will not propel us into the future. We need something new and fresh. We need a new glory. How many minutes today can we turn...

    DAILY MEDITATIONS AND AFFIRMATIONS - 109

    Joshua 1:9 - "Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest." Distractions, reasoning, fear, and doubt are tools the devil uses to rob us from achieving God's promises. Joshua was successful in battle because...
  14. APPLYING THE INFLUENCE OF HEAVEN

    APPLYING THE INFLUENCE OF HEAVEN

    The Gospel of the Kingdom teaches people how to apply the influence of Heaven to their everyday lives—including their surroundings and daily activities. There are seven major spheres (or mountains) which impact society: business, government, media, arts and entertainment, education, family, and...

    And John was clothed with camel's hair...and He did eat locust and wild honey." - Mark 1:6 John the Baptist ate wild honey and he ate locusts. He dressed, looked, and acted very differently from everyone else. He was shunned by many because he seemed so religious or abnormal. But He was...

    DELIVERANCE TODAY - Meditations And Declarations

    Many Believers live in fear of the powers of darkness. Many are plagued by the spirit of suicide and death, discouragement and depression, sickness, lack, poverty, and failure. Many are caught in the vicious cycle of defeat, circling around the valleys of despair and can't seem to find their way...

    FLOWING OUT OF HIS WORD - Meditations

    The Holy Spirit’s desire is that we live every day in the fullness of the Lord, by seeing above and beyond what we can do, and that Jesus would receive glory and honor through His great power that works in us and through us. This is the essence of what Paul writes about in Ephesians 3:20, 21 -...

    DIVINELY ORDAINED FUNCTION

    2 Timothy 1:9, "God...who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began." The term "holy calling" could also be interpreted "sacred DESTINY." The Lord considers it a...

    1 Corinthians 2:16 - "For who has known or understood the mind (the counsels and purposes) of the Lord so as to guide and instruct Him and give Him knowledge? But we have the mind of Christ, the Messiah, and do hold the thoughts (feelings and purposes) of His heart. " If you feel weary and...

    Matthew 5:3 - "Blessed are the poor in spirit: for their's is the kingdom of heaven." We empty our souls, and seek to be filled with the attitude of Christ, which is a sure wellspring -- unending, and brimming with life eternal. We count all that the proud flesh desires as worth less than...
