1 | Is GOD calling me to be full time worker | Eph 3:1 | 9-1-1 | 144709 | ||
No, I am not telling you that I do not have an old sinful nature, like I said a pure heart does not happen over night. The Lord wants you the way you are, sinful. Romans 8:1-17 I believe that yes, we all have a sinful nature, but Are we to live by that sinful nature? Are we to allow our sinful nature to control our bodies? No. The Holy Spirit that lives within me, he is to control my body. I can't turn on my television and watch some program that is only going to feed my sinful nature or my children's sinful nature. I don't. Now, I am not saying that when parents come in the hospital with children who have been burned for no other reason then "Hey if you wouldn't have left your child unattended by the fire outside"..I get angry! Now I am sure that the parent can give me every excuse that they want for leaving thier child unattended, I've heard a few, but to me there is no excuse because I work here I see what happens when people don't pay attention to their children. Now, see my sinful nature comes out because I get so angery that I want to hurt them, I want to make them feel the same pain that, that child is going through. But, the Spirit that lives in me, gives me strength to STOP, DROP, and PRAY. See, we as sinners are a lot like the parents... we know we shouldn't open our hearts to more sin. We know we shouldn't turn on that television because now adays all you see is sex, drugs, etc., but most people do. They open their hearts, their minds, to even more sin. I know that I am a sinner, I was born that way. But, as a Christian I will not let it control me. I will not let Satan have the upper hand. The Holy Spirit that lives in me, in my heart, he lets me know when things are wrong. Romans 8:4 I believe that you should always live in the Spirit. I know trails will come, I face them daily. And with the trails I lean on my Lord even more. I lean on the word, even more. | ||||||
2 | Is GOD calling me to be full time worker | Eph 3:1 | 9-1-1 | 144688 | ||
Jeremiah 17:9- Heart- "Wellspring of Life" in which wickedness must not be allowed to take root. Psalms 4:7- You have filled my heart with greater joy than when their grain and new wine abound. In biblical lang. the center of the human spirit, from which spring emotions, thoughts, motivations, courage, and action- The wellspring of life.Psalms 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life. If we store up good things in our hearts, our words and actions will be good. "Out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks".Psalms 51:10 Like I said I am a new Christian and I am studying and learning. As far as the mother and sincerity- I am a mother of 2 and a wife. I tell you now I would never give my child a pill without knowing what it is first. NOWAY! I am also a nurse, specializing in burn patients. So that story is not sincerity that is stupidity. I would not even give my dog a pill without knowing exactly what it is, no matter what!Psalms 119:145. I believe that when you are saved, the Lord will create in you a new heart and that sinful heart is no more. So all the sinful desires that you may have had before are gone. I'm not saying that Wow it happens over night, but I am saying that the Lord who lives in my heart- the holy spirit- he convicts me everytime a sinful thought or emotion appears. The Holy Spirit that lives in and through me is my guide, even in the tough times.Romans 5:5 |

3 | Is GOD calling me to be full time worker | Eph 3:1 | 9-1-1 | 144650 | ||
Well, I guess I could have. Like I said before I'm a fairly new Christian so some scriptures do not stick as well as others. I am still learning. I did give some scripture that I felt I needed to. I was merely speaking straight from the heart and I guess I could have pulled the bible out and looked up the scripture before hand. I have to say though that I believe speaking from the heart is real. Not debating on if you should say it this way or that way just saying it. I believe that if you walk in the spirit on a daily bases then the Lord will continue to help you grow in his word and will help you crucify your flesh from sinful thoughts. I guess I could through a scripture out there, but like I said I don't know them all at this point, but I know oneday I will be able to. | ||||||
4 | Is GOD calling me to be full time worker | Eph 3:1 | 9-1-1 | 144645 | ||
Remember this, You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you. Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord, the Lord, is the Rock eternal. Isaiah 26:3 and 4 I also pray that whatever the Lord has called you do, how ever he has called you to serve. That you do it lovingly and with a strong faith in the Lord. Without strong faith, I tell you Satan is swift and he will come on strong, but with faith and love he doesn't have a chance! God Bless You |

6 | What does antinomianism mean? | 2 Pet 2:18 | 9-1-1 | 144618 | ||
Thank you for clearing that up for me. The word was mentioned in our Bible Study the other night and I was still wandering about it. | ||||||
7 | church problem | Romans | 9-1-1 | 144539 | ||
As you sit back and look at todays churches, what do you feel is going on? I mean it seem as though there are so many different religions or non-denominational churches out there that I don't see how anyone can give direction. I mean it seems like if someone gets upset at one church well, they can just move to another and try to fit in. It's like people don't even take the time to listen to what is being preached, or should I say what the word says. I really feel as though people don't understand that we will all be together oneday. We will all worship together oneday. We will all be TOGETHER! Bottom Line! Sorry, I just get upset sometimes because people just jump around trying to find the preacher they like the best. I guess the preacher who doesn't step on their toes. I have to say I like getting my toes stepped on sometimes, because it lets me know that Hey the Lord he's real and his word is real. The conviction that I sometimes get just from something that most people would probably blow off, see that lets me know that the Lord he's working in my life and I am allowing it. I love it man! | ||||||

True, but do you believe that, that still happens today? | ||||||
9 | Paul speaking of women in Corinth | Romans | 9-1-1 | 144506 | ||
Yes I understand completely. I was merely trying to say that I see your point and I feel the same way. I believe that Paul was keeping order in the church. I guess I wanted to hear it from someone else. Like I said before I come from an old southern baptist church, now don't get me wrong, I am not judging other baptist. I am just telling you my experience. Women were made to be nothing more than homemakers and were to summit to their husbands. I do understand that if you are married to a GODLY man, then yes I say support your husband. I believe it should go both ways. I am a Christian, religion does not play a factor with me, my husband is still trying to find his way. I have to say that my husband supports me in my calling with the Lord. I'm not a pastor, I just lead Worship, but to me that's my calling and I will serve the Lord till he calls me home. | ||||||
10 | Paul speaking of women in Corinth | Romans | 9-1-1 | 144489 | ||
Thanks so much for clearing that up for me. I also believe that Paul was keeping order. Even today it seems as though pastors are still trying to keep order, which is good, I'm just saying it's more because of conflict, or someone wants things their way. It's sad that we all can't come together in fellowship no matter our religion.I believe that oneday we will all worship together. There will be no sides, only his. I can't wait! | ||||||
11 | Paul speaking of women in Corinth | Romans | 9-1-1 | 144482 | ||
I will be honest here. I was raised Baptist and was always tought that women were not to pastor in anyway. I would question this because I know what God has put on my heart. And everytime, the answer would be the phrase in Corinthians...where women were to stay quite and not ask questions, they were to ask their husbands....I will say this, I am ignorant when it comes to some of the things in the bible, meaning I don't quite understand, but I guess that's why I ask questions? Please explain to me what did Paul mean when he was speaking to the women in the church? | ||||||
