Very Good. But it only applies to those who reside in His Kingdom learning to become 'son's brought into Glory'. Otherwise if God healed because we pray, with no regard to our "becoming" it would be an indorsement/condoning of our unrectified conduct/soul, thus damning us to a Spiritual death. A very permanent action. The physical being only a temporary one. Ken Hepting |

Oh Boy, where to begin? Agreement? Between who? The disodedient with the obedient? How about disobedient with the disobedient? Of course you don't know who is and who isn't. First lets be clear about Satan and what he can and cannot do then you might want to re-examine what you saw as healings. Understand, I believe in devine healing. I am from Pentecostal persuasion. Satan can't heal. Satan, with God's permission, can afflict. He can also lift the affliction when people pray thus making it seem a healing from God. God also, in some cases, heals when the name of Jesus is invoked. He is honoring His Son's name regardless of the condition of faith of those who prayed. But that is His good pleasure to do so when He sees fit and not because of anything on our part. In Matthew 7 it says what: V22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never 'knew' you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. 'Knowing' you/me in this case equates with intimacy. To know Him is to have His mind. If I came to you for healing and we both agreed for it do you think I should receive my healing if I am secretly living in adultery? If not, why not? We agreed didn't we? Perhaps the whole church was in agreement for that matter. Ok, lets assume God does heal me. What does that say to my mind/heart concerning my adulterous behavior and relationship to God? Now lets go beyond that to assume the whole church finds out about my adulterous behavior. Where does that leave them with God concerning their own untoward behavior? No, sorry, can't agree with your explanation of "unconditional" agreement. The examples you posit aren't valid either. Both were before Jesus and the cross and both from a different functioning of the Holy Spirit. If you are going to use Naaman as an example why use use Elisha? How about the floating axe head miracle? Seen any of that kind of thing lately? And the woman who needed healing but wasn't a Jew? How about the one who was who had an issue of blood for twelve years. She came to Jesus and He healed her. Her faith was no greater than the Syrophenician woman, was it? Why then should Jesus not heal them both? Both happenings were before the cross. Point is those healings had to do with a display by Jesus of the wonders and Glory of the kingdom of God Jesus spent 3 1/2 years explaining. "If you ask anything in my name you will have it". Really? Does He mean all we have to do is agree OR reside -abide in Him- in His Kingdom? At the center of Christianity is perfection and that by a discipline of the soul made possible by the healing of our spirit by Jesus' vicarious death that gives access for the Holy Spirit to quicken our mortal bodies but only as the Father sees fit to do so for His purposes and that Jesus Christ be glorified. Our responsibilty in the matter is to handle properly what God trusts us with, no matter what it is and it doesn't seem to be much, these days. Having His Mind in our daily lives is what that is all about. 2 Tim 4.2 "Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine." Long suffering can come in may flavors, I'm afraid. But keep your face washed at all times. |

Sure, why not. Nothing we've said has done injury to the other. There will be times when we reflect back on words spoken that they may be helpful when in a quandry and need an answer.. I'd like to think I've given good Biblical reasoning that will challenge you to go deeper to see the kingdom and come away from subordinate issues that only clog up the works. There's much I see differently having seen it and understand what the "Pearl of great price" is. Believe me, I never knew and had no idea....and there hasn't been much fellowship around since. Do you read Oswald Chambers? |

His book-s- should be lying next to your Bible. You'll read the Bible anew once you get into His "My Utmost for His Highest". That's a daily devotional you'll never tire of reading and will always call you up to a higher plain of Holiness. He'll give you answers to questions you never thought had answers. Try this www. myutmost.org July 28th. AFTER OBEDIENCE - WHAT? And straightway He constrained His disciples to get into the ship, and to go to the other side. . . ." Mark 6:45-52 We are apt to imagine that if Jesus Christ constrains us, and we obey Him, He will lead us to great success. We must never put our dreams of success as God's purpose for us; His purpose may be exactly the opposite. We have an idea that God is leading us to a particular end, a desired goal; He is not. The question of getting to a particular end is a mere incident. What we call the process, God calls the end. What is my dream of God's purpose? His purpose is that I depend on Him and on His power now. If I can stay in the middle of the turmoil calm and unperplexed, that is the end of the purpose of God. God is not working towards a particular finish; His end is the process - that I see Him walking on the waves, no shore in sight, no success, no goal, just the absolute certainty that it is all right because I see Him walking on the sea. It is the process, not the end, which is glorifying to God. God's training is for now, not presently. His purpose is for this minute, not for something in the future. We have nothing to do with the afterwards of obedience; we get wrong when we think of the afterwards. What men call training and preparation, God calls the end. God's end is to enable me to see that He can walk on the chaos of my life just now. If we have a further end in view, we do not pay sufficient attention to the immediate present: if we realize that obedience is the end, then each moment as it comes is precious. See also July 27th |

Be encouraged, Brad, by your thinking that all the signs and wonders we May see are but subordinate issues to the one main one of becoming a son well pleasing in Father's eyes. You are saved by the blood of the Lamb now He says "If any *saved man will follow after me...." "If" being the operative word for you and I. see Heb. 2.10 where it says: "For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings." The whole world anxiously waits for this Spiritual condition from us. *- emphasis mine |

Both of your examples are from a period before the cross nad the resurrection. So they are invalid. God had His reasons now made clear if we study to show ourselves approved. Agreement does mean anything if that agreement isn't between the asking prayer's and God Himself. By agreement meaning their living their lives BY the faith of Jesus Christ which is the only Faith that can produce such agreement because it is the very MIND of GOd. Without that Faith it is impossible to please God. Consequently, a whole army couldn't move God by agreeing to together if God doesn't want to be/can't be moved. All to often that's the case. Who knows the sin-s that gather together in agreement for God's miraclous works. If He were to grant the wishes of a bunch of agreeing, secret adulterers, what be the effect on them? Nope..sorry. Agreeing with yourselves and .10 won't buy a cup of coffee in that scheme of things. |

I take it, Pastor, you are Charismatic? How long have you been persuaded this the way for you to go in? Are you a young person, old, a convert from something? If so what? Been saved long? I'm curious, when one speaks from experience, as to how much they have. I'm 65. I've been in this thing most all my life. Was christened in the conv. Meth. church and attended regularly. At 10 I was born again, as best I knew, into Christ in a small Pentecostal church. Then lived a yo-yo Christian life in and out of Christ for many years. That was due mainly, I'm beginning to believe, as a result of convoluted, mixed up, unascertained doctrine that most everyone who preached had a different slant which never produced the intented fruit in addition to a strong willed life I possessed, some say I still do but now it's redirected, so to speak. Finally when, "in the fullness of God's timing", He finally really got a hold of me and then I Began to see some things about somethings/inconsistancies that had bothered me for years and that were a hinderance to my spiritual growth when I was younger. I've wrestled with these many issues to arrive at where I am presently with the help of the Holy Spirit and some good teaching. Much adjustment has been made to bring about an intensity for knowing the Father as I never supposed could or would happen. You see, intimacy with Him is the prime thing every Born Again individual is purposed by Him to "step into" by taking the YOKE of Christ and be lead by Him. Jesus said: "When you seek me with all your heart you'll find me". He said this to His followers. When that is seen in the proper light of Christ, as it pertains to living in the Kingdom of God, everything else we seek for ourselves will pale. His YOKE will reveal the "Pearl of Great Price". You'll sell all to gain it. I've seen the god, bad, and the ugly so nothing you say is going to surprise me. FWIW, I've been bounced from a few Charimatic churchs. I flatly refuse to go to most. So our discussions could get alittle testy. |

But then an axe head only floated on the water one time in the Bible, but float it did. I'd be real careful about saying somethings when speaking of the actions, alledged or not, done by the Holy Spirit. | ||||||
158 | Kind of harsh, don't you think? | Matt 16:6 | Ken hepting | 91587 | ||
"No they won't because I refuse to get drawn into an arguement concerning the doctrines and interpretations of men." Believe me, if anyone has drawn you into any discussion it has been you and then you, again but having to defend yourself for speaking a doctrine of man as opposed to that of God. Charismania will do that, you know. Have you ever wondered why ALL the glitz "Charismatic" preachers on TV, plead for money while they live sumptously? Something about Matt 7.23 rings true when I witness that. |

You're reading one my favorite books, Makarios. It's probably the one that began to get me on target after many years of floundering. I soon bought his books and then got into the one that really sent me flying; George Mcdonald. I highly recommend to anyone serious about "becoming a son" and going beyond just being saved to buy and read all of Chamber's works, Geo.McDonald, who was one of Chamber's mentors, and then get a hold of a copy of "Ultimate Intention" by DeVern Fromke. The sequel is "Unto Full Stature". Both can be had on the net. I have been attending and teaching a UMC down here in NC. If it wasn't for the priviledge of teaching some hungery young adults, I'd leave. The burden to speak of and teach the kingdom of God message is heavy upon me. I'm free to do so there even if only to a few. I'm more and more of the opinion that being saved and being "born again" can be two seperate issues in ones life. God bless you in your work and walk, Ken "Bring son's into Glory/making all things new" by O. Chambers.....A life changer for me! |
