    Equally yoked

    I think for Christian believers they have God to pray to that is really an advantage over any others, about any prospect they see and become involved with, that God would answer if they are the right one. And God would answer, and the believer really should go with what God answers. I wish I had...

    Food for thought

    God being the essential being that is eternal, everywhere, all-knowing and without any limit being Creator of all else is love with subject and object, by necessity eternally, which is with Logos, the Word with God who is God, in total unity with the Father who is God eternally. And I see no...

    Food for thought

    "When one ask an open question like you have placed here, expect to hear things that may not fit with your understand, just I know I am going to be faced with a lot that myself. ...However when one seeks truth they must also consider anything that seems to stand in conflict with their...

    No more of works?

    Change of mind is part of it, but is with turning from sin we know of and sin we are aware of when we are made aware of it. The rabbit hole goes deep. With repentance we are ready for changing in what we are shown for that, which God will do if we are in the relationship we should have with God...

    Food for thought

    I notice that Yeshua known generally as Jesus did not say at any time for others to worship him. Of course, he was different from any others. There were miraculous things from him, and pithy statements in his communication with so much knowledge of scripture which would be used in his...

    Apostles

    You have a problem with limiting apostles to those when there are any others the Bible names apostles, as was Barnabas, who was leading Saul who was also known as Paul (that was not a change of name, he had both names that were his), Acts 14:14.

    Natural "Shampoo"

    Understood. I still won't be going to a vegetarianism thread.

    Do i have to Keep the Sabbath or was it only for Israel?

    Do you have to keep Sabbath for what? To be saved? No, obedience to anything is not required for salvation, from life of sin to restoration to God, other than to have faith which is with repentance to be in Christ. Only faith is required to be in Christ, only repentance is required for the faith...

    Natural "Shampoo"

    I am aware and you would surely recognize I at first was affirming the natural approaches that include that, and mentioned along with that the healthy way there is with eating in the natural way that was in the original design from God for us. Posts afterward were responses to questions about it...

    Moving on to Genius chapter 3

    Carefully read through accounts in the Bible such as at the very start in Genesis 1-3. Take as metaphorical only what cannot be taken as more than metaphor, and take it all seriously. The design in the beginning was perfect and was meant for it, we lose much with being fallen with sin, but we...

    To the sons of God: The Priesthood of Melchizedek

    There is really no one like Jesus. It is often lightly overlooked that God is one being, the supreme being. One, who is the heavenly Father, and Logos, the Word with God who is God, along with the Spirit of God. In full unity as one in agreement and purpose, the three are not separate beings but...

    Natural "Shampoo"

    I came to having whole food from plants and was generally avoiding processed foods, since I found this Forks Over Knives way over seven years ago now. I would say from my experience it is working and I probably am in better shape than I would have been, though I have issues. There are different...

    State sanctioned gambling

    God does not actually say government is needed in place of God. As God told Samuel, they have not rejected you, they have rejected me, when the people came to Samuel saying they wanted a ruler such as other nations had. We should really be over that thinking. There is not the right understanding...

    State sanctioned gambling

    Governments are corrupt, and putting themselves in places where God should be, in our lives. We should be responsible ourselves, and it is up to us to not engage in things that are wrong. And there would be accountability for us.

    Natural "Shampoo"

    God's food is better for us than man's chemistry... indeed! There is understanding in things made by any men, but not all things are seen with that, and none of that understanding is equal to God's understanding. And what God said to start with was in the perfection that comes from God. "Behold...

    The Slow Motion Destruction of Donald Trump Has Begun

    I don't think either have been good as leaders of the country, Biden or Trump. Speaking of wrongs that get overlooked on one of them does not indicate support of the other. There is faulty reasoning with that. I do not even think we of society should even be in huge communities and cities. We...

    Charismatic Lutherans LCMS

    I was given to that at a brief time early on as a believer, long ago, but realized what I was doing and left it behind. What is of the Spirit furthers the gospel's reach and promotes love and compassion.

    Natural "Shampoo"

    As it happens I am not an Adventist, though my thinking overlaps with things they hold, including healthy ways that I pursue yet further than most among them, as in ways we choose to eat. I have visited some Adventist churches for joining in the service. But it is with having read about this...

    Is it OK for our churches to have Christmas trees, bingo games, or Easter egg hunts?ts,

    If there is harm done to any then there is something wrong with that. That should be avoided for godliness, in churches and in lives of believers still when they are away from churches. That needs attention.

    Natural "Shampoo"

    Thanks for sharing this. I am glad for growing awareness to start avoiding having much of any chemicals in things. Shampoo on the market is certainly such. And there should be awareness to avoid having processed foods. They are not as good for us as whole foods. I found Forks Over Knives...
