I will pray for Stephanie.

Dear Lord GOD, we come to You in Jesus' name asking that you will deliver Stephanie from addiction and all of her troubles. Intervene in her life in ways that can not be resisted by the enemy so that she will return to health, freedom, and a life that is what You desire for her. Woo her heart to Yours, Father, and bring her to salvation with a faith that cannot be shaken. Amen.

GiGi,

There is no reason for you to apologize. After I messaged you, for some reason the Lord put it on my heart that I should not have sent that to you. But by that time, I figured you probably already read it so I left it alone. Actually, I probably deserved to be smacked in the back of the head for that one, but you are much too kind for that. I wish there was a way I could have just sent that to you but unfortunately this website does not allow us to do so.

There is a website called Godvine that used to have an open forum just like this one, but they shut the forum down. On that forum, we could message just one person if we chose to do so. We would never know the person's email address.

What we would be able to do is create a profile, and in our profile there would be a message box. If someone posted a message in your profile, the website would automatically send you an email telling you that someone sent you a message and you were the only one who would see the message, and you could reply to just that person.

I sort liked that. Plus I liked the fact that no one's email address was ever shared. All we would see is the username of the person who sent the message to you.

But I guess there can be both good and bad in that!!!

Hello Adam,

Whatever method you have been using in not only this thread, but others that you have responded to GiGi, that is working, and I think that is what she might be saying. I have followed your posts for about 5 years now and they almost always begin with just "hello" or "hi."

What GiGi was saying makes a lot of sense. If a post begins with just hello, it is difficult to know who the person is speaking to, unless of course they are only one replying to a post.

Please know that I am not telling you that it is wrong to just begin your posts with hello without typing the name of who you are speaking to, and I am not telling you how to post, but it does make it easier when we see a name in there, such as you did each time you were responding to GiGi.

Thanks Adam.

Please pray for Daniel. God knows what it's gonna take to save Daniel. Please move in Daniel's life Father. In Jesus name.

Hi GiGi, I was referring to the normal comments page we're probably looking at right now, not in an account. I'm using a laptop and maybe looks different. God bless.

Hello Ruby,

Thanks for explaining you viewpoint more. I don't think I need to repent of any doctrines that have been long held by the church as long as they align with Scriptures. The body of Christ is a communion going back to the first Christians.

There have been so much input along the way from so many different believers over the centuries. What I value is the consistent message of the faith passed down since the apostles. Those alive today are part of those who share this message as well.

If you don't wish to look back at those contributions, that is your prerogative.

Considering the thoughts of those on this forum is the same as considering what has been spoken through the centuries. We should always compare what we hear or read to Scriptures.

None of us have perfect doctrine nor do we interpret Scripture perfectly even as the Spirit helps us. We are all fallible. But we are journeying closer and closer to the Truth, who is Jesus, and we become more an more like him.

Ruby, I don't mind exchanging ideas with people here. It is very helpful to me. But I do not criticize people who gain understanding from teachers such as pastors, evangelists, writers (past or present). So I don't think it is appropriate to call out someone who seeks information in places other than Scripture. We all do that in some way or another. But some, like you, on this forum have a real negative bias against the witness of the church through the centuries and those writers who struggled with spiritual matters and presented their findings in writing.

Anyway, we do not need to discuss this further unless you again call me out for gaining insight from researching. I do not need to repent of this and you are wrong for assuming I am stubborn-minded, as you implied. And I do not think it is your job to get make me understand. God is at work in me as He is in you. We will come to the full measure of truth as God leads us in the way He feels is best.

Again, thank for responding.

Blessings Angelia Patton,

You are doing right in constantly seeking God. Trust in our self is futile. When we experience mental pain and anguish, it is because we've slipped into listening to our own voice. All knowledge lies behind every decision the Holy Spirit makes for us. One of our functions here is to decide against deciding what we want, in recognition that we DON'T know. Say to the Holy Spirit only, "Decide for me", and it is done, for His decisions are reflections of what God knows about you, and in this light error of any kind becomes impossible. I've come to realize my stubborn mind is my only enemy, and this part of my mind seems so loud. The Holy Spirit's Voice is only as loud as my willingness to listen. It cannot be louder without violating my freedom of choice, which the Holy Spirit seeks to restore, but never to undermine.

Peace,

GOD IS

Hello Jesse,

I was not trying to single out Mel8. So I apologize if it seemed to be that way.

Hello Adam,

I am aware that the name appears in one's account under replies.

Yet, it is still helpful when someone starts out their post with the name of the one they are addressing because those of us reading can then know who is conversing. But thanks for the info.

In Chapter 2:1-5 Of the Book of Isaiah , is the Author prophet-zing about the Coming of jesus Christ.

Hi GiGi, I appreciated your previous comments.

Regarding who someone is replying to, on my screen it says the person's name then "In Reply" and when I click it it shows the person it replied to. So, on my screen it seems clear who its to, just that they aren't indented enough sometimes, but the main confusing aspect on my end is if someone writes a different name than who the person is replying to.

I have often said,"i don't trust myself, well someone asked me "how can you not trust yourself?," i said,"because if i had trusted myself i would not have caused a lot of the pain i had done to myself, my trust is in god who has always been better to me ,than i have to myself. daily i seek him and his wisdom.pray for me.

GiGi:

I am not questioning you relationship for God, I can see your love for God and I know his love for you and all mankind.

I was trying to make you understand how we can get bullheaded about the doctrines of the church and not repent of the doctrines that oppose God's word.

I saw this in my on mother, we would study the bible and be discussing certain scriptures and I would say the scriptures are saying thus and thus and she would always respond, well the church says it doesn't mean that, I will stay with the churches doctrines, the pastor says it doesn't mean that, I will believe what the pastor says.

She went to her grave for the doctrines of the church rather than repenting of those doctrines and believing God's words.

I know she loved God also, and God loved her, and she is saved as you are saved, she just never matured in the word.

I want bring this up anymore, it's between you and God, and his work.

I never meant any of my words as any condemnation; your not condemned, but loved.

I will fall back on what Paul said:

Philippians 1:18 What now? notwithstanding, either way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, and will rejoice.

God Bless You, and I do love you.

I will like to understand the bible more

samuel 3:1_10

I would also hasten to add that our salvation is not dependent upon our knowledge of the Bible.

Look at the salvation of the Ninevites. They had virtually no knowledge of the Word of God whatsoever. Jonah came to them with one message God will destroy you in 40 days. They recognized this as the Word of God, humbled themselves, and repented. Why? Because God was at work in their hearts to save them. Jonah 3.

Matt 12:41

26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

Why does Genesis 26 read God made mean in "our" image and in the next verse 27 "in his own image"?

Any thoughts? Is this a translation error?

Thank you.

please pray for me and my family

Dear Ruben, I have prayed for you, but only YOU can throw yourself at God's mercy for forgiveness and a softer heart and those things you need to live a victorious Christian life.

Chris,

Matthew 13:10-17

And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.

Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive: For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them. But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.

Matthew 13:34, 35

All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.

Ruby,

Yes. We cannot isolate a verse or a passage from its immediate context or the context of the entire Bible and expect to come to truth. We must compare scripture with scripture. The Bible is its own interpreter. It is its own dictionary.

We do not interpret scripture by what we see outside of the Bible. But we can sometimes understand what is happening in the church and in the world as we come to truth from the Bible itself.

We see sin multiplying in the world. And we see how the Bible has lost its ultimate authority in the churches and denominations as nearly every church teaches some element of a works / grace gospel and has more and more brought the world into the church. All predicted in the Bible and under God's control as we approach the end.

I love this app.
