Thanks for the info. There is also the following: https://www.crosswire.org/bibledesktop/

Is great that you are humble, we all need to learn, but more important we all need the baptism of the Holy Spirit, to restore fellowship with God and do good service in gratitude for His free gift of salvation. At the same time do not shortchange yourself, maybe you have valuable experiences...

I am not sure what denomination or tradition you relate to you. I meant no offense in my answer. From a Spirit led view: Phillips, R. (1999). Awakened by the spirit: reclaiming the forgotten gift of god. "The key to my whole new life was the baptism with the Holy Spirit. Others may choose...

Hi Leah... Are you an independent learner, or do you have access to teachers in your congregation? If you have trusted teachers you can ask them to point you to particular sites where you can explore more the topics of your interest at leisure. If you are an independent learner, then it can be...

Hi Believers blessings in Jesus Christ for all of you. I am curious about the way you use Bible software, not only for Bible study but also for theological, ministerial and other kinds. Theoretically there was a comment in a Bible software forum in which a poster said that he considered very...

Very interesting topic. Roughly speaking could there be wordly (part of created order) energy, Divine (from up high from God), and demonic (from evil entities that influence for the worse)? Physical energies can also include subtler aura (human electromagnetic field) energy. Shaolin monks...

Interesting concept, but does it match the witness in the Bible? Paul became everything to everyone to win some for Christ. Centuries later, the largest religion in the World, reconciling lost persons to the Almighty God. I bet if Paul were to visit the master blaster yoga center in his times...

Hi Rapturechris. I am kind of new here too. How about defining friend in your view: do you mean people that think exactly like you? or do you also include people that think way different than you? You could always share a bit more about you: do you have a denomination or tradition history...

Hi marakorpa: Interesting remark. How do you go about finding God's truth in the Bible? what are your assumptions, previous understandings, preconceptions, enculturation bias, and how do you keep them in check when studying the Bible? Just curious.

Hi HamoNinja: Any particular interests, or concerns?

Hi Meditator: Could you be referring to the following?: (found in the Gospel of Mark) Mark 16:15 "And he said to them, Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation. 16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. 17 And...

LOL, Would it not be better if you prayed: God, if the person talking all this Biblical stuff (remember I have quoted Scripture and cannot be broken), is sincerely mistaken, let your light and mercy shine on him / them to see the truth that is Jesus Christ. But if I am the one way out of whack...

Hi Blik, I understand your view. I respect it. I just try to not swerve left or right in my view of the correct path. Imagine a continuum: Saturday keeping, etc.. _________________ dwelling n leading of the H.S. _________________ Christiendom paganism. I try to stay in the middle. And hope...

Totally agree, but how do we know the leaders are according to God's heart? how do we know they are not pushing some ungodly occult agenda? God gave the church (not just the leaders) spiritual gifts to precisely have checks and balances. Are we to take any doctrine suggested as absolute truth...

Imprecatory prayer? be careful, God knows who is who and will take action accordingly.
