Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 17 2008,19:27)Hi not3, So the spirit of a man knows his own thoughts. So it is not the mind that harbours those personal thoughts.By the Spirit of God we can have access to the thoughts of God by the mind of Christ.The mind of Christ is not the Spirit of God.Don't shoot the messenger! Read the scripture again.Your…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 17 2008,19:23)Hi not3,Not the world's fear but taking care in what we say and how we worship Him and treat His teachings.I like this: the goodness of God leads us….not fear.I think what you may be trying to say – be careful not to fall away from the Lord – respect his Word – be alert to pitfalls, can all be said…[Read more]

Good morning, Gene.I think that both perspectives are good to compare, if it can be done respectfully. I have personally really enjoyed your posts lately. We know there are other's that read here who find relief in your words as well.Press on,Mandy

We had so much fun today! And the food….. When the kids got home from school they were so excited because there was so much “special” food left over from the party. It was a good day, today.I hope your doing well, Irene. You sound a bit down. Cheer up……..we may see him in the clouds TONIGHT!

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 17 2008,04:13)GB, No your words do not reflect scripture so we have to untangle them. They come from your intellect it seems.I don't agree.I find a lot of what Gene offers to be very scriptural and quite frankly, good words to those who are searching AND finding.You just don't happen to agree with him, Nick. That doesn't…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 17 2008,04:12)Hi Not3, So is Jesus only the mediator for us and the heathen can directly approach God?I bet you'll be shocked at all the poor, heathen souls who called out to God directly (perhaps on their death bed), who will be standing right next to you on that Day.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 17 2008,04:42)Hi DK, The choice of whom to follow is difficult? Several ways to God for men, one for each culture? God wants to unite men in Christ and we need to discern what is false from the words of truth.The Romans wanted to unite their people too….We've read what happened there.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 16 2008,18:45)Hi not3, If scripture says spirit is intellect I withdraw my case.1 Corinthians 2:10 – 16, in partThe Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of GodFor who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the man's spirit within him?In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 17 2008,13:32)GB, God has never been the problem. It is faithless men who do not fear Him and wander away.They have the choice to do so still and the carnal mind is so easily deceived.But Nick, God doesn't want fear to keep us near to him….he wants us to love him.Can you imagine making your children so fearful of you…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 17 2008,09:20)Gb, The greatest problem IMO with those who say they have faith now is their lack of fear of God and it causes them to disregard the eternal teachings of His son and sons in favour of those of modern foolsThis is why parents send their kids to Catholic schools – to put the fear of God in them!
