Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Oct. 12 2007,11:37)Its a huge stretch to say that your son existed in your husband before he was born.Is it a stretch?  I don't think that it is, look what I found:  Levi was in the body of his ancestor before he was born.Hebrews 7:9One might even say that Levi, who collects the tenth, paid the tenth through Abraham b…[Read more]

Kevin, You are doing a great work here. Thank you for sharing things as quickly as you are learning them! I check this site daily, and I study daily. What you are finding and bringing here is an awesome companion to my own study – thank you!

Quote (kenrch @ Oct. 11 2007,21:58)The first of the new creationAmen!FROM HIS BIRTH he is the “first of the new creation.”Jesus never had to be born again. I know that Nick believes that Jesus was indeed, born again from the Jordan; however, I do not agree.JTB baptism was a shadow of the forgiveness of sins found in our Lord Jesus. John knew…[Read more]

BUMP  A true conception produces a new, unique individual who is the combination of both parents.Who is willing to believe this about Jesus?Who is willing to believe that Jesus is truly the Son of the Living God?Matthew 1:20,21….”Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the…[Read more]

Sister Laurel,Have a great great trip! See you when you get back.Mandy

Quote (kenrch @ Oct. 11 2007,00:50)that the Sabbath is yet another “step” in your walk with HIM.Indeed, this is true.We are all children of God and as such, I believe he works with us individually. For me, this Sabbath rest is just what I needed (and was willing to accept) at this time in my life. God's ways are not our ways, praise the LORD! I…[Read more]

Sister Irene,”…..few will find it…..”My personal belief is that those who answer the question, “Who do you say that I am?” correctly are walking the narrow path. Remembering that not everyone who says, “Lord! Lord!” will be allowed to enter. And why will they not be able to enter? Because the Lord never knew them . OK, going to bed for…[Read more]

Laurel, Gene, Ken and others,Thank you for your encouragement, you all really have no idea how much it means to me. I am pressed on every side from family and friends because I no longer accept that my Creator is three persons in one. In fact, I am learning that there are more non-truths that I have been taught that I will need to let go of…[Read more]

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Oct. 10 2007,18:41)When I first got saved shortly after the Lord called me to preach on the streets.Matthew 22:9Go to the street corners and invite to the banquet anyone you find.Street ministry is the BEST! WJ, you and I have so much in common. Jesus hung out with the sinner's – the tax collector's and drunks. Today,…[Read more]

Hi Elaine,I have been thinking of you much and praying.Here is a great passage on fasting – Matthew 6:16-18. My experience has been that when you fast, you are denying yourself as to focus on God. One time the disciples came to Jesus and told him he should eat, but Jesus told him that he had food to eat that they knew nothing about! We don't…[Read more]

Hebrews 9:14How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God!

WJ,I know there is a thread dedicated to John 1:1, but briefly; the “word” mentioned there does not indicate that it is a spoken word OR an individual that was present with the LORD.  So, what was it?  I know we are told that Jesus' name is also the “Word” but it is not described that way clearly in John 1:1 ( a quick review of that thread will s…[Read more]

I grew up in a church where everyone spoke in tongues (all the time). It was distracing and disorderly, not to mention LOUD! As a kid I thought it was kinda cool, and kinda scary. When I went to teen camp I received my “prayer language” is what they called it. Although to be honest, it never felt right to me. I maybe tried to pray in this…[Read more]

Irene,Are you feeling better? You have been in my prayers!Mandy

Brother Gaston Seeley, rest in peace. Please Lord, send peace that passes understanding to the Seeley family. In the glorious name of Jesus, Amen.

Quote (Laurel @ Oct. 09 2007,17:29)The real question should be, How do we keep the commandments in this sick and perverse world? How do we stand firm?For those of us who are keeping Saturday Sabbath, and for those of us who are beginning our Sabbath rest…..let's talk about HOW to keep the commandments in this world?A good topic may be: Ideas…[Read more]

Quote (Laurel @ Oct. 09 2007,17:12)but it's different, because all those other days He is there for me. On the Sabbath I am there for Him.…..On the Sabbath I am there for Him……Got it.This past Saturday I enjoyed a Sabbath with the LORD. I actually took a 2 hour nap in the middle of the day! Can you believe that? It was the most glorious…[Read more]

I have responded to Elaine via email. I believe the Lord has shown me that her son is suffering from a spirit of self-hate. Not demon possession, but as Ken shared, oppression.As for the vomitting, foaming, spitting, growling, convulsions – perhaps this is just the reaction of certain demons when they hear the name of JESUS. They know that when…[Read more]

Sister Elaine,I just read your posts and I want to take some time to pray today about you and your son. I am very familiar with this area of ministry and I want to see if the LORD will tell me anything to share with you. I will come back this evening and post.Hi Ken,There was no vomit, but much foaming at the mouth and spit! Also growling and…[Read more]

I see the Preexistence thread is going strong…..so I wanted to *bump* this thread on Conception as a companion.It is my opinion that one subject gives light to the other.Jesus is the unique combination between God's spirit and Mary. Therefore, “Jesus” the person, could not have preexisted his own conception/birth.What was “with” God in the…[Read more]
