    Question

    Does this mean that we are responsible for what we pursue after he changes heart, or does the change of heart do that itself? I pursue different things now, I was once an ass, now I'm not, [for the most part] I once loved to fight, now I don't, I once took pleasure in drugs of all sorts, now I...

    Question

    Righteuos maybe, but not good, Quahom. Jesus tells us so..."There is none good, but the father" Jesus even neglected to suggest that he was good... 17. And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the...

    The Love of God

    It wasn't me who changed it, and that is what you must understand. If I could do it, I would have done it long ago. It wasn't until I embraced the Love God had for me that I changed, man. Christ led me to that Love, and I recieved it in Spirit. God knows the heart of man, he knows mine, he knows...

    The Love of God

    I have Christ, and God, and Spirit...What more do I need? My views come from the Bible, [it inspires me] but the Bible is not what transformed me; it was God, Christ, and Spirit that did that. If you knew me five years ago, you'd be singing a different tune. A great work has been done in my...

    Question

    What is it that transforms people, Silas? God, Christ, and Spirit, maybe. That's the way I view it, bro. We're more similar than you think... Much Love,

    The Love of God

    No respect? o.k. then... and I was called to adhere to what Christ taught me. [It's all I got] or did they just not understand his speach? 10. And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? 11. He answered and said unto them, Because it...

    The Love of God

    I follow the same Christ you serve, and I would never mock the cross. I have recieved god's Love/Spirit, and I have accepted and embraced it. I have accepted Christ as a master, leader, even savior, but I follow his life, and I know I am on the right path. I feel it, believe it, I have peace...

    The Love of God

    The cross offends me, and I think his life was/is more significant than his brutal death. I choose to see his life, his ways, his Spirit, and I look away from the cross because it was something very unholy to happen to such a holy man. I'll hold on to his life, follow, and accept that we killed...

    The Love of God

    I could never comprhend God's fullness, so I'll focus on his spirit until I come to further understanding, or when God reveals it to me. It's not for me to focus on what he might and might not do, and who he might accept. I'm content enough knowing that he Loves and wants mankind to embrace his...

    The Love of God

    I'm not JW, nor have I adopted any other label within Christianity. I am fine knowing I follow the footsteps of Jesus, and that I do so by the Holy Spirit. All my works before my acceptance were perhaps in vain, yet if I do any good work now, it is only because of Gods Spirit in me. About...

    Can fear be productive when approaching God?

    Thanks, Dondi...I realize this, which is why I said directly, instead of at all. The studies I sometimes go to are more like a gathering where we all participate in reading, and discussing the scripture. It's a great thing, and a blessing to me, and we have been doing it since I was a small...

    Can fear be productive when approaching God?

    Thank you faithfulservant, If I had the words placed in bold, I think it could have calmed the fire a bit. Only, we were discussing Exodus the other night, and not directly talking about Christ. Mom is a really beautiful person, but she has some issues...like we all do. One of which is...

    The Love of God

    I don't trust my own heart, Silas...I trust the Love God puts in it. He deals with the heart of man, the seat of soul, and w/o his Love/Spirit I have nothing in me worthy besides my free will to choose him over lust. I Love the world, which means I Love his creation. I dislike the ways of this...

    The Love of God

    In a more liberal sense, yes. :) Meaning, I attempt to follow the teachings of Christ, and honor God by following his lead. Many would argue against me being a "true Christian", but I think it's the heart that matters most. Jesus taught me some wonderful things, and led me to a place I don't...

    The Love of God

    Sometimes in order to die to self, we must be hardened, imo. This is how it happened for me, others will be different. No, it's not something to aspire to happen, but when you are hard, and then comes the Love of God rushing inward, the hardness melts away, and you are able to feel again. It's a...

    Christian Idolaters?

    Is it hard to be a practicing Jew, Dauer? Judaism seems so strict, with so many traditions. I would imagine it to be quite a challenge sometimes. Then again, I suppose every religion presents its challenges. What harm are those missionaries, though...other than a thorn in the side? I don't...
