21 | Divine Healing, True or False? | Matthew | HeirofGod | 14658 | ||
Back up a minute, I was trying to show you that God wants us to expect a harvest after planting a seed. Every thing works in seed-time and harvest. It's just like cause and effect. If you plant a seed in good ground (whatever kind of seed) you will receive the same kind of harvest. IF you plant kindness you will reap kindness, if you plant corn you will expect a corn crop-but not the next day. Only God is that fast in rewarding if he so chooses. That's all I've been trying to say during this whole discussion is that God works on a seed time and harvest table. If your church needed to build a daycare center, what would they do. God says we will lend and not borrow. Church revenue is supposed to come from tithes and offerings-a seed is an offering. If you give to God he will give you more to give. This is how everything works. We need money to live in this world, right. That's why we get jobs. We pay tithes to keep the curse off of us and because we Love God. THis is a requirment. Giving is also a requirement, but he said it shall be given unto you pressed down shaken together and running over. HE also said that what a man sows that he shall also reap. So if you sow money you will get money, If you so hatred you will get hatred. I think we all need to study seed-time and harvest it is mentioned in scripture. IF you want to know where, I will find it and tell you. In Christ, Kimberly |

That is the focus Norrie. The focus is to be able to keep building the Kingdom of God naturally(with souls) and financially with tithes and offerings. Don't get me wrong, I Love God not because he continues to give me a harvest but because he saved me from a lustful and religious spirit. He changed me forever. Not only do I not want to go back, I've tried and I can't. He's holding on to me and he's not going to let me go. Niether will I let him go. I trust his word not because some guy on TV says try it, I tried it because it had worked for other people in my church. Giving to ministries who are bearing fruit makes me happy. Getting a harvest makes me happy. Being saved makes me estatic! I don't think that all TV ministries have lost the focus. I think they know the importance of having the funds to do what needs to be done. Right now my church is very small, but the power of God is moving so immenantly.We know that souls are going to come in, because he spoke it himself. When they do we are going to need a bigger church (It's really small now). That's going to take money. We have been planting seeds in all types of good ministries from all over the states, some we fellowship with. When the time comes where we need a new church God will honor our seed and will provide. We have to stay focused on Jesus because he gives the increase. That's what seed time and harvest is all about. God honoring your obediance and blessing you. I think that's great. It shows that God knows you are being faithful. Thank you for seeing my point. Kimberly |

I am sorry but I don't agree. God is about to do a BIG THING and the whole Church is a part of it. As far as getting by-I don't want to just get by. God is a god of abundance, if his people are barely getting by and he has abundantly, what does this say about our God. My pastor knows that God has a greater work for our entire ministry especially his evangelists. I know I am going to have to travel, be it in the U.S. or over seas. I don't want to have to travel this is not something I would have chosen to do but I will because I love him and want to see his Kingdom grow. We can't do most anything without money these days. God knows it, that's why we have jobs to help pay our bills. We also know that one day we are going to have to leave our jobs when he needs us to go out and preach. I don't have 800 dollars lying around to get over seas. I don't have 100 dollars lying around to go to Florida if I had to. IF he needed me to go, it would have to come from some offering he provided. The reason you don't know what I mean is you are comfortable with what you are doing. Well I am not comfortable with my church being empty, with living in the projects, and living paycheck to paycheck and still barely paying my bills. I know God is a provider, but he's also a rewarder. I know what God wants me to do because I've asked him. You might be comfortable sitting on a pew on Sunday maybe just saying amen, but I'm not. I want to see people saved, healed, delivered, rededicated, and holy. The more seeds I sow into the Kingdom of God the more I will see ministries bearing this kind of fruit continue to do so. I live what I know about God, I am trying him for everything I know. These are the last days and God is doing things that you never knew him to do. I don't know what he's spoken to you, but I do know what he has said to me and every word has come true even when I wasn't sure it was him he showed me. All of the comments towards my motives are wrong and all of your comments about seed time and harvest are wrong. Have you not read the parable of the sower, or when Jesus talks about sowing and reaping in Luke 6:31-38. I don't give to people because I want something from them. I give to GOd because he said to. I expect a harvest because he said to in 38. No it does not say sow and reap here, but the bible doesn't say Rapture in it either but we believe it will happen. If you sow judgement, people will judge you (you'll reap judgement). Give and it shall be given unto you. If I give people with no food some groceries or just a meal, then when I need the same God will repay me. He gives the increase not man. All I've been trying to tell the one person who actually asked the question is to Believe God for anything. Prosperity is true for those who have faith that God will prosper them. Divine healing is true for those who have faith that God will heal them. This is the last time I am going to answer on this subject because with your own beliefs in the way God can't open your eyes to the truth. Try him. I am moving up because I know who I am in God, I can't witness to how he provides and my project apartment is leaking, and the tiles are broken, and the paint is peeling, and the manager has not come to fix it. God is not going to let me live like that. I sowed so much time into helping other saints move into new houses, God is blessing me with a home through Habitat for Humanity. HE said he was going to furnish it because it was going to be a testimony for him and not something we have done. HFH has not said you've got the house, but we believe God because he spoke it. My husband sowed so much time in helping our pastor with remodeling the church that he has volunteered to help us build our home. We only have 5 faithfull members who are adults. The ministry is already 2 years old but God said he was going to fill up the church. We are all blessed. The power of God moves and the anointing is sweet. I love what God is doing in my life. HE has brought me from a horrible death, to a brand new holy ghost power filled life full of grace and peace. He's doing a quick work in me and my husband and our growth in the things of God require that we do more, come up higher. You can't fault us for doing what he says to. He moves on us to give and we do. I don't have a monthly pledge I give to ministries yet. I pay my tithes and offerings and we are blessed. The word says to much is given, much is required. He is requiring more out of our lives because he has given so much to us. Especially in anointing. I hope you will ask God for yourself if I am right about Seed-time and harvest. It's been with us since the beginning. Look at what he told Noah after the waters left from the Earth in Gen. 8:22. Planting and harvesting is a constant. Be it fruit or vegetables, the Word, or money. We need all three of these things naturally to survive. Love in Christ Kimberly |

24 | Prosperity and Deut. 28? | Matthew | HeirofGod | 14889 | ||
Remember I wrote that she quoted the scripture "a faithful man shall abound in blessing". That's the one I meant. I base my belief on scripture and with the experience that came when I applied the scripture to my everyday life. I don't car if I ever get a million dollars. But I do care if I move up in God. Yes, for my current situation I was happy having a roof over my head, but that doesn't mean that I can't want to do better. If we are just happy being saved, no one will ever go out and get other people saved. In the King James it says "let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee". Paul was saying not to try and take what others have. The word covet means to lust for what someone else has until you will do anything to get it (paraphrase). If you love money too much, you'll steal to get it. If you admire your friends wife to much, you'll commit adultry with her. Well that's not the situation I'm in. I don't live like a saint of God. I moved there before I got saved so it was fitting for who I was. Now it is not fitting for who I am so God is changing it. I don't have a 2001 car, but I have one. I would love to have a 2001 car but that's not what I need right now. IT's a 93 with alot of problems but it gets me to work, church, and home everyday. I didn't have a car when I first got saved and carrying a 2 month old baby around in the snow was not going to get it. I went to school on the city bus for a year, then God provided what we needed after I proved faithful enough to have it. I have lived in the same place for 3 years and God is finally saying they can handle something more now. If I didn't want to move, I would not accept his blessing. If your church only had 20 people who would really praise the Lord with everything they had and 100 others who barely stood up would you be content that you had 120 members? I wouldn't. There are somethings as you said that are being used the wrong way. BY the way God showed me about Jeremiah, It was great finding out what was going on. Just as when you find out that we are not supposed to be poor. IF the world can be rich and we walk around with rags and straw hats on, what does that say about God? A sinner would never want to leave his possesions to serve a God that lets his people Go around in rags. I get tired of fighting the smoke from a joint just to make it into my front door, or the gangs of drunken people out on my front porch. I've witnessed to those people and they didn't listen. But bless God when he moved those people out of the way, one of the girls who used to be with them started coming to church with us. We have to let the blessing of God show through us. He said we overcome by the Blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony. My house is going to be a testimony unto God, that mans laws don't stop God. I get tired of borrowing money from some bank to get things I need. If God desires to give us things we need and things we desire why is it wrong for us to recieve them. The blessings of the Old Testament are for us just like the curses if we do wrong. Seed-time and harvest is a blessing. If you sow in time you will receive a harvest. If you need a new anointing in your church and your members don't seem to want to move up, sow praises unto God and either your people will praise with you or leave. If they leave, you didn't need them in the first place. I have to go now. IT's nice to have a calm discussion without being attacked. In Christ |

No, I am not just applying it to money. I have been trying to tell you all this for some time. Anything you sow, that's what you will reap. I teach faith also. My Pastor teaches faith. If you are not teaching faith then I see where the misunderstanding is. I know sound doctrine-and the whole Chritian belief is faith. If you don't have faith you can't even believe enough to get saved, that's why he gives us "the" measure. Then He knows if you don't have it you can't please him. He was pleased with Abraham because of his faith, He blesses us because of our faith in him to trust him. I am not just talking about money here Tim. Maybe that's why people are misunderstanding me. | ||||||

Look at "Us". Christians, we can't agree on anything except that there is a God. I just left an AOL message board about nostradomus, and there were a lot of unsaved people here. I didn't interact, I just watched. We (Christians) continue to argue about things within our body and the people outside continue to see just how weak we've become. The body of Christ. Acting like we really don't know who we serve, arguing with the people we are trying to save. That's why I didn't want to continue talking about prosperity-there's a bigger picture. Yes, I still believe in prosperity, the body of Christ is going to need it when people come to us hurting. We see it now that all these families have lost someone in New York. We are the ground breakers, we are the ones who will buy homes for homeless families, we are the ones who will give transportation to families who are new at working for God and still struggling to get to their natural jobs. We can't be lowly and poor to do this. HE became poor that we might become rich. Not just material. We argue about that but we can't agree to set denominations aside to save souls-The main objective. Jesus came to seek and to save that which was lost. There are still some lost people out there-but we fight within the body. Satan is winning in deceiving people to believe there is no God, but he also tells them that he doesn't exist either. THey would rather believe that he exists than believe that God does. BUT WE DISAGREE ABOUT PROSPERITY!!! IT's not the time for them to see us the way we are. Understand something brother Moran, I do believe in teaching our own the oracles of God and do believe there are things that should continually be discussed within the body of Christ prosperity and faith is among them. God would not have made it the subject of so many passages if it were not true. We are against so many of our own. "Those Word of Faith preachers". These preachers have come against the spirit of religion in this world and taught people how to call those things which be not as though they were. Jesus told us to speak to the mountain and it will move. Having faith will make it move, not hoping really hard. What comes out of your mouth determines alot in your life. What you do determines how God deals with you. I thank you Tim for not attacking me throughout this discussion, but I think alot of people misunderstood my confidence in the word for greediness; for that I am sorry. I don't apologize for what I know is right, Just like we don't apologize to an atheist for believing in God. These (atheists, wiccan, satanists, etc.) are the ones we need to be seeking to save. One person wrote on one of these posts that I seemed to be trying to do a Big thing for God, when he would accept small things, or something like that. Well yes I am trying to do a big thing for God, saving souls. The biggest thing. This is the greater work that Jesus was talking about. My Global Ministry that I talk about-that's a work that God wants of me-I don't like to travel and have never been over seas, this is not something I would pick for myself. However, I will do it when God is ready for me to go. We need to get into a mode now. He is coming back and it is sooner than we think. How many people do you think we unsaved in those buildings, WTC1 and 2, Pentagon, and the planes? Whose fault do you think it is? It's ours Christians. We are to scared to witness no matter what the cost and this country was built on the same principles we teach now. Let's wake up. Love in Christ-Evangelist Kimberly Jones (I'm not afraid of this position anymore) |

27 | That's an interesting belief. | Luke 23:43 | HeirofGod | 797 | ||
Please don't swing to once saved always saved because they disagreed with your scriptures. The holy spirit is a gentleman he does not make you do anything (we are led by the spirit Rom. 8:14). This means that if we want to denounce God and tell him that we don't want to go to heaven he is not going to make us. Matt. 12:31,32 says that we can denounce God and Jesus and be forgiven(when we ask). But if we denounce the Holy Spirit we can not be forgiven-if you cannot be forgiven then you lose your salvation. Only a believer can blaspheme the Holy Spirit because we are the only ones who can worship in spirit and in truth. We know the Spirit of Truth so only we can deny him and in doing so we lose our salvation. These are two ways you can lose salvation: Tell GOd you just don't want his salvation anymore (which can be forgiven), and to blaspheme the Holy Spirit (no forgiveness for this). All in all unless you are thinking about trying it to prove your point,don't worry about losing your salvation, worry about getting others where you are. | ||||||

29 | Pre Wrath Rapture? | 1 Thessalonians | HeirofGod | 1334 | ||
No I do not agree. I believe that before the Anti-Christ is revealed we will be gone Rev. 4:1, I Thess. 4:17. The only way that the anti-christ can reveal himself is when the church is gone. He can't decieve the nations if we are here to expose him out right. I can't find the scriptures I had to support this ARGHHH! When I get them I will send them to you. | ||||||

31 | Help with misled teen with gender issues | 1 Pet 5:7 | HeirofGod | 795 | ||
Unfortunately, the Bible is one size fits all. It looks to me as if Satan has attacked him, because of his age and his decision to follow Christ. I have been studying homosexuality in the Bible; it is not just the act of sex with the same gender. To get this trapped in your mind will put you in this category also. Here are some scriptures to help you decide what to talk to him about. Lev. 18:22, 20:13, Romans 1:24-28, 1 Cor.6:9. I hope this helps you and him with discovering who he is in Christ-A man who is an heir of God and a Joint heir with Christ. | ||||||
32 | Only 144,000 virgins in heaven? | Revelation | HeirofGod | 1336 | ||
I understand what the number is and who it includes. I was just wondering why and how these false religions only include 144,000 people in heaven. There will be 144,000 men undefiled by women(this is what I meant by virgins) Rev. 14:1-4. but they are Jews. | ||||||
