I wouldn't say it took no faith, however Paul tells us that we hope for what we do not have. If Jesus already had the literal glory in a preexistent life, and then knew he would have it again…….I would think that would require very little faith.

Baaa-baaaa,Mandy

Faith is believing in things not seen. Is the evidence of our hope. If it is true that Jesus gave up previous glory and asked the Father for that glory to be restored, then Jesus didn't need faith.

I couldn't say for sure what the complete scriptural testimony is on demons……….but I've seen people delivered from them! I spoke to, what I believe to have been a demon. True story.

In light of the conversation surrounding Jesus previous “glory”, I got to thinking about his sacrifice and what it truly meant if he was only returning to the glory he gave up.Would the sacrifice really be a sacrifice? Or just a temporary inconvenience?

Hey Irene,Love your Avatar! A blast from the past for me!

Quote (Lightenup @ June 17 2008,16:29)There ya go. The Holy Spirit is not the Father, The Holy Spirit IS the Spirit OF the Father, not the spirit of another person or even itself a person. Scriptural evidence at last.I fully agree and thank you for your hard work.

But Satan knows what he is doing when he is a false teacher.Are you saying other's do not know that they are false teacher's, that they indeed have been led astray to do this terrible thing not knowing?I guess that could happen to any one of us then?

hmmm”Religious spirits” lead them astray?

Whether or not it changes a person is regardless, imo. It is recommended by the disciples of Christ! Whether or not we benefit from such symbolism is not what we should be asking ourselves. We should be obedient to the call.The disciples taught water baptism.Was the African who was baptized on the side of the road ever filled with the Spirit?…[Read more]
