    First Word of Jesus was repent

    Then, we have to be careful how to divide. Jesus tells us the words he speaks to us are spirit and they are life. We should always allow the spirit in the word to minister to us always, so that we can divide aright.

    Oh! throughfaith, only me you ascribe all these? even goosey? It is well and good. For now, I am yet to grasp your meaning of floaty. will confirm later. Yes God can never lie for he is not a man that he can lie. I trust you believe what he says as you mentioned --- to the best of your...

    First Word of Jesus was repent

    You make me laugh, which is a good thing. Who does not know that in the verse you quoted, Jesus was talking to the Lepers. I still have my bible with me. If I did not know or remember, common sense would have shown that, I would have checked! Even if I am dumb, I am not that dumb. No, we...

    First Word of Jesus was repent

    I think the problem here is that you seem to have a preconceived (perhaps learned) method of reading or studying the bible which to me looks very academic. --Who said that? to whom was it said? are better in academic examination. That method does not have to be for everyone.

    Spiritual lesson or spiritual understanding connotes the same thing.-------just say not interpreted by the letter for the letter kills but the spirit gives life.

    First Word of Jesus was repent

    Well, what I see in Luke 17:14 is the healing power of God in operation, which is available to everyone of us if we believe and obey just as the Lepers. You remember 1 Peter 2:24, by his (Jesus) stripes we are healed. The same God"s healing power in operation. When we come across the...

    First Word of Jesus was repent

    Well that is not the way I understand the scripture. What you have said does not apply in all cases. I actually believe that everything in the Scripture applies to me. It is for me to understand the spiritual lesson/treasure that is lined therein.

    First Word of Jesus was repent

    Well, what did the scripture say? The Holy Spirit among other things, guides us into all truths. How do we know the truth if we do not walk in the Spirit or be guided by the Holy Spirit? In Romans 8:11 we read, But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he...

    First Word of Jesus was repent

    In Matthew 5:48, Jesus tells us to be perfect as our Father which is in heaven is perfect. God told Abraham, walk before me and be perfect. I do not think God or Jesus Christ will tell us to do what they know is impossible for us to do. How do we even think that, with all the resources our...

    The Babies of God

    What I see here apart from the babes in Christ is that this quote buttresses the fact that Man is not intrinsically flesh (carnal) but his behavioural pattern could give rise to flesh and make him so. When we understand this clearly, our outlook and attitude towards sin would change and...

    Bible study - anyone?

    I just noticed something about Paul as I was reading your post..... Paul's life before and after meeting Jesus Christ on the road to Damascus is a picture of one living life under the Law of Moses verses one living life under the Law of Faith in Jesus Christ. After meeting Jesus and being...

    Sometimes, action speaks louder than voice. On this wise judging from your previous posts I marked it red X. However, reading it again now, the appropriate icon would have been i for informative hoping that it is with the right intention coming from you.

    I almost don't want to know....

    oh well, I read them. My red X shows I do not agree with your opinion. When necessary I will say why. If not necessary, the X subsists. The X actually makes it easier than to continue to argue unnecessarily, maybe for a dumb like me, according to @Runningman !!!!!

    I think there are very many pictures showing the actual people that were out there at the Capitol on that Wednesday. I think people only believe what they want to believe irrespective of the evidence.

    Well I disagree with you 100%. I do not chase shadows. Tackle the root cause of a problem, and the problem will disappear. The issue is not with the government per se but us Christians especially parents. I do not have the statistics but I will not be surprised to find that majority of...

    Well, sometimes Satan accuses us rightly. It is our Christian duty and responsibility to be on the right path.
