101 | Were Eve's desires sinful? | Gen 3:6 | gracefull | 92855 | ||
Hi mommapbs, "Eve had a choice to believe God and recogonize her completelness and sufficiency in Him alone. Exercizing her faith would have kept her from paying attention to the lies of Satan." There is such a world of truth in this statement. In every decission of life God has given us His Word to choose to believe and obey...but we so often believe a lie because we think we are missing something. God's perfect love for us should be the only truth we need to tip the scale for obedience. When we doubt His perfect love, we are susceptable to believe a lie. At least, that's how I see it. God bless |

106 | "God said"? ...The VERBAL voice of God? | Ex 20:19 | gracefull | 66789 | ||
Good question.. Many believers become upset when someone says "God spoke to me.." because they believe God speaks..but that He has given His word and we are to consider that only as His voice. The falacy here is that Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to 'teach' or reveal (turn the light on) the Word. The carnal mind cannot comprehend the things of God but they must be revealed by His Spirit 1. Corinthians 2:11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. John 4:23-24 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship Him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship Him must worship him in spirit and in truth. Matthew 15:18-19 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart: and they defile the man. For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies. Sin does not originate in the mind, but in the heart. 2 Corinthians 10:4-6 paraphrased Our weapos are not carnal...casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God bringing every THOUGHT into captivity.. Romans 8 5-8 To be carnally minded, set our mind on things of the flesh is death, but to be spiritually minded is to set our mind on the things of the Spirit.. It is my understanding that we are spirit, soul and body (triune beings) and that the soul is made up of the mind, will and emotions. Our mind was given to process information similar to a computer, junk in-junk out, and has to be reprogramed with God's Word (be transformed by renewing your mind to the Word). But the COMMUNICATION between us and God is in the connection of God's Spirit with our spirit. The spirit led person is one who listens with the spirit to the Holy spirit, confirms the voice with the Word (they will always agree) and acts on the Spirit's leading. The difficulty comes when the mind is not renewed enough and wars with the Spirit based on it's carnal wisdom. The more time spent in quiet fellowship listening for the voice of God in Spirit and truth (God's word is truth). Our changed mind does not necessarily mean a changed heart. Hope this helps In Jesus |

107 | "God said"? ...The VERBAL voice of God? | Ex 20:19 | gracefull | 66795 | ||
I see, well Paul heard a verbal voice of Jesus on the road to Damascus. We know this because the Bible tells us that those with him heard but it sounded like thunder to them? If God did what this man said God 'said' I would probably believe him. It is very good that you examine what you hear. So many take whatever people say as gospel, but God wants us to check everything by scripture AND the Holy Spirit. But God ideally wants us to walk by faith through a Spirit led life so this would be rare. In Jesus |

109 | When is abortion right? | Ex 21:23 | gracefull | 74888 | ||
Love trumps knowledge? When is abortion an act of love as Jesus demonstrated? Mother's health? My life is of more value than yours and I do not trust God to keep me healthy.I choose to sacrafice you for me. Rape? I desire to punish or rid myself otf this sin imposed upon me by killing this innocent unborn child. I do not trust God to help me through this. Can't afford it? I do not want to sacrifice what little I have to care for this child that I conceived by my own choice, by not practicing safe sex so I will kill it... Where is this love that trumps knowledge? |

There is mercy and forgiveness for murderers just as there is mercy and forgiveness for all other sin when one genuinely repents and turns to Jesus as Lord and savior. You do make a point, the ones who commit abortion need our prayers, the children are in heaven. God bless |

CDBJ as you understand this kind of love, surely you could see that abortion is a most selfish act, and the reason it ignites so much passion is because it is a selfish act of brutality toward the innocent. Contact the prlive organization and ask them for some the video tape of a sonogram performed during a C-section abortion. Watch the baby pull away from the knife trying to avoid it in FEAR and tell me that child is not ALIVE. And if you do not believe it is fear...ask the Holy Spirit. God have mercy on our nation! |

112 | When is abortion right? | Ex 21:23 | gracefull | 74945 | ||
Good morning...No, I am not having any of the problems I listed. But many women are, and they need to hear that God has a blessed alternative to the sin of murder, that is not their only choice, and Satan would have them believe it is. My point was that love does not kill. God is love and He always provides a Godly way through all of lifes obstacles. I hope someone reading this thread will be encouraged to look to God for His direction instad of believing the lie of Satan that abortion is right and the only resolution. God bless |

Stacey, My heart is griped with compassion. Your story is so true. Have you considered sharing it with other ladies who are searching? They need to know that they have been lied to and that they will bear so much pain. It is Not like having a tumor removed. No woman ever had a tumor removed and felt such lose. Purhaps helping others would help you? God has forgiven and it is under the blood! But as we all know, there are choices we make that despite forgiveness, even self forgiveness, the memory and the surfaces every now and then. Just mediate on His great love for you during those times and allow the Holy Spirit to comfort in the way no person can! God bless you my sister and thank you for sharing your testimony. Someone may read and find hope and courage to make the decision to trust Jesus. |

114 | What men flee when they are not pursued? | Lev 26:17 | gracefull | 68970 | ||
Deut. 28:67 (Amplified)In the morning you shall say, Would that it were evening! and at evening you shall say, Would that it were morning!..because of the anxiety and dread of you (minds and) hearts and the sights which you shall see with your (own) eyes. Those who are lost or backsliden fear what they cannot see, and what they can see because they know they do not have the shelter of God's protection. Without God, there is no peace of mind or heart, only uncertainty of what might happen next..fear... Thank God for His promise that we are redeemed from the curse of the law of sin and death (the soul that sins shall die)Galatians 3:12-14 and have received the peace that surpasses all understanding..Phil.4:6-8 |

Hello Aixen 7x4, Yes I thought of that, and also the fact that he was acting under authority. That raises some interesting prospects doesn't it? God bless |

116 | Gender?? | Deut 6:4 | gracefull | 86757 | ||
You are absolutely correct...I had initially decided not to use this verse because it really does not speakd directly concerning God's gender but rather the culture of Heaven where God is, but decided at the last minute that is was relevant. In my rush, I did not copy and paste. Thank you for the correction. God bless |

117 | John:30-33 Manna | Josh 16:1 | gracefull | 66973 | ||
Hi Ray, that was my point but you did a much better job of giving the other scriptures. But what are you saying here? "Moses gave them manna to eat," Verse 32 of John 'Then Jesus said to them, "Most assuredly I say to you, Moses did not give you bread from heaven, but My Father gives you the true bread from heaven."' It seems to me Jesus is correcting their thinking in giving Moses credit for the bread as opposed to realizing it came from the Father. Is that what you see? Thanks, |

118 | John:30-33 Manna | Josh 16:1 | gracefull | 67069 | ||
Thank you Ray, I agree with your interpretation of John 30. It is indeed Jesus revealing his diety. I figured you did not mean the statemnet you made thus wanted to bring it to your attention. I agree that the peole 'knew' manna came frm heaven. But I believe their carnal thinking was suerior or predominant over their theological knowledge. Israel (as all of us tend to do) had a history of looking to men. For instance 1 Samual 8:4-7 Then all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah. And said to him,"You are old and your sons do not follow your ways; apoint for us then a king to govern us. Vs 7 And the Lord said to Samuel, "Listen to the voice of the people in all that they say to you; for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected me from being king over them.Just as they have done to me, from the day I brought them up out of Egypt to this day, forsaking me and serving other gods, so also they are doing to you." Jesus revealed the desire of their hearts, food, and then is informing them that he has something much more important to offer, himself. The teaching of Jesus as God come down from heaven as manna to feed them eternal life is the essence. I just like to look not only at the teaching but at who Jesus is teaching. God bless. |

119 | Who is compelling us when we sin? | 1 Sam 13:12 | gracefull | 80554 | ||
PS Although Jesus has broken the power of Satan in the life of the believer (He whom the Son sets free is free indeed John 8:32-36), we are responsible for searching out the conditions of God's covenant with us through Jesus. By doing this we learn to recognize the deceptions of Satan. The truth of God's Word in our hearts by the Holy Spirit gives us discernment to recoginze which voice we are hearing. God bless |

120 | Medium summons Samuel? | 1 Sam 28:12 | gracefull | 80029 | ||
Thank you csmith.. You bring up a good point to discuss. Was the medium simply a tool God used to deliver the message? Possibly, but that raises some other questions. 1. Earlier verses and even Samuel comments that God was silent to Saul due to his disobedience. Saul sought the medium because God would not speak to him (through any of the prophets). If God had wanted to speak to Saul, He could have spoke to him through a prophet, not a medium. 2. Saul did not say to Saul the God was speaking to him, but reaffirmed that God was not going to talk to Saul, but Samuel knew Saul's fate and shared it with him. Thanks for your thoughts. God bless |
