Amen. It is what is meant by walking by faith.

"That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ. In whom ye also trusted, AFTER THAT ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also AFTER THAT ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance...

He said more healthy not what tastes best.

Okay, not entirely sure about the courtroom bit, but yes, the first coming to Christ for forgiveness, is not the point at which we receive His word, His promises, and most of all His abiding presence which is there at the beginning but is soon lost as we 'lose' our first love..

Yes I have also thought that the parable is about those ones too.

I had not looked at this verse in that way but agree. It is those who already believe who hear the word of God speaking directly to them and who then go on to faithing.

The problem with TSA (in the UK) is that a lot of the help they give is for the homeless and addicts and a lot of the homeless are addicts. However, there are other organisations who are helping these people and shockingly, alcoholics qualify for high rates of benefits that disabled people are...

I will just wait to see how it pans out thank you.

Roger scripture says: 1 Thessalonians 5:18 New International Version (NIV) 18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. So we believe scripture or man? I am speaking to you as someone who has lost all in life including my 4 children who were alienated...

Roger, are you thanking God for your circumstances? And for those of your past? Do so right now. God has the right, if you are one of His children to allow into your life whatsoever He wishes, and it is all to bring us to the place of ultimate submission. Praying.

@Pisteuo I am with you so far. Keep going.

The verse says to awaken from something into something else - awake from unrighteousness and sinning to righteousness and not sinning. Some of the Corinthians did not understand this, and like many in todays church, think that being unrighteous which is basically still sinning, is okay with God...

oldethennew Thank you.

I have had 4 children alienated from me by their father. Two are now dead to suicide, one become mentally ill, and the other 2 who are in their 30's I barely ever see. I married a narcissist. God has seen me through this. Anger is a choice.

Washing their feet was teaching them to serve one another. Not everything applied to post pentecost. Context.

No I don't.

"There is probably a lesson to be learned from Jesus washing the feet of his disciples. He said that they were clean but at times their feet would get dirty. I take that to mean that their salvation was secure but at times they still would stumble into sin and would need God's forgiveness in...

@Soc1 I apologize for upsetting you. I have been on that dark path.

You will be suffering from the abuse as well as your child who has been alienated. Leaving the abuser shows just how bad the damage is to the targeted parent as it shows up the addiction to the abuser. You have the choice as to whether you believe the enemy of would or whether you give God a...

@Soc1 I have been through this due to Parental Alienation from my personality disordered ex partner. I am trying to recover from Narcissistic abuse and there is help and advice and most especially, support. You feel far from God because of the trauma you are going through but He is there and...
