    To enjoy Grace in Heaven, you have to love the work (selah)

    Hi there, So you would have to have been deaf to the world, not to have heard the phrase "we are saved by Grace, not of works" among Christian circles. However, I want to challenge that. For a long time, I have believed that "a mature Christian, makes work a priority", which is not to say that...

    You are rewarded more for saying "faith without works is dead" than you are for saying "we are under Grace" (able?)

    Hi there, So there is a simple fact that I think a lot of us overlook: you are rewarded more for saying "faith without works is dead" than you are for saying "we are under Grace". What is the difference? The difference is maturity. More people realise that their faith requires something of...

    We've got this! We should start praying "Thankyou Father, that Your Son's Gospel has gone out to *all* the nations of the world - we say by faith!"

    Hi there, So yes, this just occurred to me now: we should be praying "Thankyou Father, that Your Son's Gospel has gone out to all the nations of the Earth - we say by faith in His Name". By doing this, we enter into the labor that is required and fix our sight on the goal - this will make us...

    You use your Heavenly body to work; if you don't work, you fall to Earth - not that falling to Earth doesn't give you rest, but it doesn't empower you

    Hi there, So from the title of this thread, you should already be able to work out that they purpose in Heaven is to empower. The joy you get from serving the Lord, is from serving, and while waiting on the Lord serves, the Lord is not always there. If the Lord is not there, you need to be...

    The persecution of the poor is universal, don't just get rich, get generous! (for God's love?)

    Hi there, So I will just declare it straight out, in my nation, I am considered poor. Now what that means, in my nation, is not that I don't have luxury, but that I don't have the same type of luxury as others. I know, crazy, right? The thing is, I have been facing this issue (of being poor)...

    In Creation, you love Jesus; in Evolution, what do you love? (evolve 'love'? thoughts?)

    Hi there, So in Creation you love Jesus - the Christ. What do you love in Evolution? Darwin? Jesus said "go the extra mile"; Darwin said? If you love Jesus, you go the extra mile and you remember that He suggested it (and can be humble); if you love Darwin and he doesn't ask you to do...

    There is more complete at the Cross, than works of the Law can finish (interested?)

    Hi there, So a simple thought (as I am learning to keep my thoughts!): there is more complete at the Cross, than the Law can finish. What does this mean? It means that the more you approach the Cross, the more you will discover that there is no end to the opportunities you can find, to act on...

    Behold! The Lord is doing a new thing: He shall tell his disciples how and why He remembers and trusts them (hosanna!)

    Hi there, So I thought I would encourage you, by writing down the news of the Lord, as soon as it was revealed to me. The Lord is doing a new thing! The Lord shall tell His disciples how and why He remembers and trusts them. This is a way of developing quietness and confidence (Isaiah 30:15) in...

    Jesus was newer, at the resurrection, but newer again was promised (selah)

    Hi there, So there is just a question of parity, that I have come across, in my study of the Word. That when we believe, we do not immediately grasp the power, of the Word of God, that is coming to Jesus. Jesus is receiving power on Earth, and all the more power in Heaven, in as much as Hell...

    Prosperity ... Does the Bible Teach it?

    Let’s get this issue settled. Let's first define what prosperity is. We can think of it as flourishing, thriving, succeeding with good fortune, success in social circles, basically achieving what you set your heart out to achieve. Our lot in life isn't for all of us to prosper financially, to...
