Hi Irene,This is the song that is on my mind when I go walking alone. Which one would you be in this choir

Hi Irene and Lineon,Here is a song that commonly ends a service. We come to Him just as we are…enjoy!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSsoZZr4lqQ1.Just as I am, without one plea, but that thy blood was shed for me, and that thou bidst me come to thee, O Lamb of God, I come, I come. 2.Just as I am, and waiting not to rid my soul of one dark…[Read more]

Jodi,You wrote this:Quote IMO to be honest it's just a disguise to your inept ability to actually prove your belief with scripture. Does that approach really work for you?? I have better things to do with my time. Maybe another time with a better approach…as the Holy Spirit leads.Kathi

Nick,Why would He need to be born again as in the born again concept that was taught to Nicodemus?LU

That's true Nick, we follow Him…how many ways can we say that?LU
Lightenup replied to the topic Jude 1:9 in the forum Scriptural Teachings 17 years, 2 months ago
Hi Jodi,I believe there are supernatural beings that are led by Satan. I also believe that man's “innerman” is the spirit of man and can be corrupt and influenced with lies or renewed to be filled with truth. I believe it is better for us to fix our minds on the light and not the darkness:Phil 4:8-98 Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever…[Read more]

Nick,Jesus was different than us in several ways and in some ways Jesus was similar. We follow Him by yielding to the Spirit of GOD and seeking the kingdom above all else. Jesus walked as a single man. Neither you or I are single so we walk through life differently than He did. That is just one example. Nick…look at the big picture. Follow…[Read more]

Nick,Would you like to follow someone full of grace and truth who is always led by the Holy Spirit? He says to follow Him…so, yes we can follow Him. Is that not a worthy goal…to become full of grace and truth and constantly led by the Holy Spirit? We can do that but we won't be perfectly full of grace and truth till our new body.LU

Nick,That is like asking if He is not adopted why should we be. He became a Son in a unique way. If we became a son in the same way as Him we would not need to be adopted into the family of GOD. He would not be the only begotten or unique. If He is unique in some way then we can't be like Him in that way or He wouldn't be unique any longer.…[Read more]

Jodi,I'm interested to know who you think was Job's “satan?”
Lightenup replied to the topic in the forum The Trinity Doctrine 17 years, 2 months ago
Yes, Nick He led the way…He followed the guidance of the Holy Spirit and carried His cross. The Way is to follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit, that is how we follow Him. The paths will not be the same for any of us. You can't walk my path, I can't walk yours but we can both go to Him the same way-by following the guidance of the Holy…[Read more]

Hi Nick,We follow the directions the Spirit writes on our hearts, day by day, minute by minute always looking to the one who has given the Spirit to us-Jesus Christ our Lord. Everyone has a unique path and He faithfully waits for us at the end of it. Each one carries His own cross each one different from the other, yet each one the same. If we…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 08 2009,18:54)Hi LU,It was then that he began his ministry of power. The Spirit of God is of power and when the wind blows it is irrrespressible.
