Hi,
1Jn 3.18f
” Little children let us not love
with word or with tongue,
but in deed and truth.
We will know by this that
we are of the truth,
and will assure our heart before Him,
in whatever our heart condemns us;for God is greater than our heart
and knows all thingsBeloved ,
If our heart does not condemn us,
we have confidence before God
and whatever we ask we receive from Him,
because we keep His commandments
and do the things that are pleasing to Him”I love this guy
Hi,
Rom 2
” 11For there is no respect of persons with God.12For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;
13(For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
14For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
15Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)
16In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.”
We are gentiles.
Hi kenrch,
Man started off living according to conscience and failed miserably rejecting God and accepting the god of this world as his leader.
Now again after the cleansing of our consciences by the blood of the Lamb[1Peter 3] and equipped by the power and teaching of the law of the Spirit we are again under conscience as reborn sons of God.Quote (malcolm ferris @ April 06 2006,23:35) Sandra
You raise some very good points.
Where do all the people come from who are in the 1000 years reign of Christ.
It says we shall rule and reign with Christ during this time.
Over who? could this group who we reside over be made up of those who have never heard the gospel?
They would certainly get the chance to hear about it then.
After the 1000 years the rest of the dead are raised and the Devil loosed. He goes about trying to decieve all he can, (as ever) and let's face it those who he decieved previously are likely to stay decieved. There are those who died rather than be decieved (foolish virgin?) and who else is left? Those who never heard the word to start with…
I don't know, just some wild ideas to throw around.
Go ahead shoot me down in flames. I don't mind – really.
After all that's what this forum's for isn't it?
Hmm I'm interested, hope it's not to late to jump on here.Quote (sandra @ April 07 2006,00:40) The first thing I would like to say Malcolm is that I truely am spiritually nourished by the light of the word in you! Quote Where do all the people come from who are in the 1000 years reign of Christ. I cannot explain this but I only see the Lamb of God, and to fall down upon the throne and worship there! But on earth, in the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth,
The Lord has shown me that all are royalty is his kingdom, that every family comes from royal lineage, the remnant are merely the first fruits of His offspring.
But there are others who are not of spiritual Israel. Who are in the Kingdom of Heaven but not royal priesthood!

Hi Nick
Do you think that our concious is where the Holy Spirit resides within us?This is my theory
Before we are baptized into Jesus, and before we receive the Holy Spirit, our concious is an open door, it's determined by our beliefs.eg. If your a Hindu, your concious is also.So when I received the Holy Spirit,the door was closed to any other occupant.
So I tbeleive the Holy Spirit is our concious.Hi debra,
I see us as vessels for God.2Tim 2
” 20But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.21If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.”
I believe the conscience aspect of us comes from Adam and Eve eating from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and without the guidance of the Spirit can be a scrupulous burden or rendered by sin ineffective and cause us to follow what is right in our own eyes.
It can still work properly in some.
Rom 2
” 14For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:15Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)”
When our houses are swept clean we do need to be filled with the right Spirit or the previous tenants will return.
Matt 12
” 43When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.44Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it EMPTY, swept, and garnished.
45Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation. “
He that is in us is greater than he who is in the world.
Hi:
“Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the Lord. Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with their whole heart. They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways. Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently. O that my ways were directed to keep thy statutes! Then shall I not be ashamed, when I have respect unto all thy commandments. I will praise thee with uprightness of heart, when I have learned thy righteous judgments. I will keep thy statutes: O forsake me not utterly. Wherewithal shall a young man clense his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word. With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments. THY WORD HAVE I HID IN MINE HEART, THAT I MIGHT NOT SIN AGAINST THEE”. (Psalm 119:1-11)
“THY WORD IS A LAMP UNTO MY FEET, AND A LIGHT UNTO MY PATH”. (Psalm 119:105)
God Bless

Feed on it and let the Spirit accomplish in you what is possible.
Yes, Nick, feed on it. The Holy Spirit will lead you to all truths, but it is up to us to apply the Word of God in our daily lives as the Spirit of God leads.God Bless
Hi 94,
Not by might nor by power but by the Spirit.
Do not be deceived into becoming a circumcised Jew but learn from what God told them.I'll be honest with you all…I don't trust myself (I.E. This Flesh) no further than I can spit.
James 3:8
But the tongue can no man tame; [it is] an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.I know it don't say it …but it is to my personal belief that the entire Flesh is an Unruly thing. I just want it off of me….yuck!
