    That's right! Hebrews 7:25 ESV Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them. Phil 2:10-11 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things...

    I see. It was also in Jesus model prayer (to teach new believers how to pray): Matt 6:10 10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. KJV

    The Spirit Of Christ

    True! For example: Gen 1:26 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. KJV

    Jesus, being the form of God, said to Jews "you have not seen His form." Why?

    True! But not until saints get to heaven, are they enabled to see God exactly as He looks in heaven. Rev 22:5 5 And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever. KJV

    Jesus, being the form of God, said to Jews "you have not seen His form." Why?

    True! His disciples had difficulty often - understanding just who Jesus was until later - I think - probably on the Day of Pentecost, following Jesus' ascension.

    Jesus, being the form of God, said to Jews "you have not seen His form." Why?

    John 5:37-39 37 And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape. 38 And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not. 39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have...

    How to perceive Christians who are carnal and babes? 1 Cor. 3: 1-3.

    Rebirth in Christ is primarily produced just by God's power and grace. However, one seeking to be a Christian needs to count the cost before taking the step to receive Christ as Lord and Savior. Otherwise, it would be a fake transaction. And following conversion, one needs to prayerfully...

    How to perceive Christians who are carnal and babes? 1 Cor. 3: 1-3.

    No. The loving thing is to tell her she's wrong, and why, according to the scriptures. Anything that goes against the Bible is harmful to those who adopt such beliefs. Any errors of spiritual belief always has adverse affects. Especially subjects like that, which remove the focus from...

    How to perceive Christians who are carnal and babes? 1 Cor. 3: 1-3.

    It's not said in exactly those words in scripture. Though it's true that spiritually speaking, it is those who who are most "salty" and who most stand out "like a light on a hill" - for God, are those who accomplish the most for God. Matt 5:13-14 13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the...

    How to perceive Christians who are carnal and babes? 1 Cor. 3: 1-3.

    Here's an online etymology for the word, "divine": late Middle English: via Old French from Latin divinus, from divus ‘godlike’ (related to deus ‘god’). So naturally, God fits the description for that term, the best. He is superior to all else that exists. 2 Peter 1:3-4 3 According as...

    How to perceive Christians who are carnal and babes? 1 Cor. 3: 1-3.

    Hi! John 3:16 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

    the kingdom of satan

    Yes, you're right, Magenta! I think that way too on the subject. Though I have no absolute proof that the scriptures on that subject do not mean an actual visible mark put on people. But it seems very unlikely. For example, think of how hard it would be to afford it in poor countries...

    i know that many sincere Christians difer in opinion on this subject. i do not believe a Christian who has arrived at full surrender to God can fall away. But I have seen in scripture, that some do fall away from Christ and do not return. And that the New Testament, warns Christians...

    Suggestion: An additional forum for Christians to learn how to do business - earn incomes

    Yes, and that's a good verse you mentioned on the subject, too! I think you're right that having a thread called "business" - could be a worthwhile thing to have in here. And we might face hard times in the future - who knows? For sure, there's always some who already face hard financial...

    Trump - puppet or savior?

    Right! The best hope for improving the bad conditions of the USA, is not through any man or anything (sounds like I'm quoting David in the Psalms!) - but through prayer and through our nation turning back to God in a great way. We need to pray daily for spiritual revival to take place!
