Hi Ed.Good question.I know theres two ways. So according to the bible, theres the way of the flesh – which feels jealousy etc, and the way of spirit which doesn't. According to the bible, in the NT, jealousy is of the flesh. I can understand it. Iv felt the change between both. NOT feeling jealousy – being in the spirit not the flesh – is…[Read more]

Kerwin, also, the way I see it, we struggle against the things of the flesh constantly. Which are things like jealousy, envy, anger etc. But spiritually we KNOW theres another way, and thats of the spirit. And in spirit everything is easier. Example I may feel fleshly things that arent good, the moment I `switch ` to spiritual, I calm down, I feel…[Read more]

Hi Kerwin.Quote “flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God” from 1 Corinthians 15:50.From what I understand, Jesus did not have his blood and scripture says those who are resurrected will be like him.And the flesh can mean other things, like here:Gal 5:17 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you won't fulfill the lust of the flesh.  For the…[Read more]

Quote (Istari @ June 22 2011,20:31)– and tries to separate Rena and Istari…Istari,You know how much you mean to me. No matter what they try or say or do will never ever come in between you and me.You are the best thing I ever had on this forum. I'm lucky. You are Godsent. I love you.

Just some information on Justin Martyr.This (what follows) is what put me off reading the Early Church Fathers. You'll see it get's worse and worse as time goes on as you read it…Taken from here:http://www.bible.ca/H-hell.htm150 AD Justin Martyr: and we say that the same thing will be done, but at the hand of Christ, and upon the wicked in the…[Read more]

Hi Theodore.I have found the Herbert Armstrong branches to be interesting. I used to love thier TV programes and I loved their booklets. I wanted to join a church. I found a local -ish one and asked by email if I could come along. But they said I needed to learn a bit more and had to agree with their beliefs first. Well, I agreed with most – at…[Read more]

Hi Tim.So what do you do with these verses,Matthew 5:17 'Do not suppose that I came to throw down the law or the prophets — I did not come to throw down, but to fulfil;  for, verily I say to you, till that the heaven and the earth may pass away, one iota or one tittle may not pass away from the law, till that all may come to pass.  Whoever t…[Read more]

I know t8.I hope the votes didn't scare Ed off. I just thought he would make a good moderator?

SF, that was a lot of reading, but good on you – well put.

Quote (Pastry @ June 21 2011,22:56)I am very much disappointed in most here that they don't check this part of HN…Irene, Iv been quietly thinking about you, don't worry. Maybe some people read here but don't say much. Love to you and your family. I hope your ok. (karmarie/shimmer).

t8, I think the fact there are so far more `No's than `Yes's is good. The other forum I used to go on, the main moderator is not liked because he doesn't muck around. He has no favourites and follows every thread – and posts a warning whenever a poster steps out of line – even in the slightest. It's one of the fastest growing Christian forums on…[Read more]

Hi Theodore.I read about that. My family had an `awakening as to their Jewish roots a couple of years ago. The surname example of my Mother was really strange but nobody made the connection untill I googled it. Talk about blindness! Same with my Fathers side. They were all excited about it, but it didn't mean much to me at all. Not untill just…[Read more]

Tim, Good post. thanks. I don't know what I can say though. I experienced it differently. But your really positive – good on you – God bless you.

Thats true Mark. I just noticed. About two years ago the Man emailing me was talking about Plankton dissapearing. There was nothing on the internet about it at the time. I just googled `Plankton dissapearing, and it's there, Plankton is dissapearing. (Google it).(Have to go).

Mark, I think there is the literal Isreal and the spiritual Isreal. Because I'm Hebrew, it effected me most of my life untill I obeyed God, right. So then theres the spiritual Isreal, I think the judgment is different somehow but I can't quite put it together… Because I don't know scripture enough. Wish I'd read it more!Tim, thank you – I'll get…[Read more]

Quote (Ed J @ June 21 2011,18:00)Quote ED, when I say something, could you please not quote me and make the writing so big. It's annoying. Keep it at normal size.

Ed, I understand what your saying.My point is this though,I come from Hebrew decent. Maybe full. Most of my life was not nice, I created my own misery. And I wept for myself and I was in darkness is how I always described it. Later God dealt with me, and I saw God in a much different light. God became real to me. I had always believed in God but…[Read more]
