I can so relate to this! 
We say, I believe in God, and then we try to work things out our way instead of relying on Him to work all things to our good in His own way in His own time. I was so aware of this at one point... and find as EG said, the more I rely on Him, the more I find He is faithful, and have learned the long hard painful way that trying to do things "my way" is not the best

Once again, we are not talking about the same thing, that's why you can not see or understand what I am saying
i am not talking about my mistrust in areas of my life, or trying to earn a reward,
i am talking about the fact God saved me forever and gave me eternal life, and nothing can take that fro.pm me, nor would I ever want to give it back because god has proven faithful every time I trust him.
Your trying to make salvation, eternal life, eternity with god based on what we must earn, not the great gift God gave us. That is what I see,
I asked you you earlier if you understood me yet I still do Not think you do,
Yes, I said that I tried that, and it did not work for me, and someone else tried too, and it did not work for them either. I entered the name and hit enter and nothing came up for guests, after selecting a number of options from the search type, and even choosing all. Banned people come up no problem. Is there something else that needs to be done? I just tried again now, and again no luck.

See what. Mean, you just basically repeated what I sad, all I said is without salvation, there is no spiritual growth,
Thats what what I mean about people not trying to see what others are just saying and just assuming they know
plus, you just hurt your position, if god will finish the good work of spiritual growth, how could you ever fall away? You could not because God said he will complete that good work,
you can. It stop him, nor would you want to. Even if you could,

Jesus, Founder and Perfecter of Our Faith
Heb 12:1 Therefore, having so vast a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, and throwing off everything that hinders us and especially the sin that so easily entangles us, let us keep running with endurance the race set before us,
Heb 12:2 fixing our attention on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of the faith, who, in view of the joy set before him, endured the cross, disregarding its shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Do Not Grow Weary
Heb 12:3 Think about the one who endured such hostility from sinners, so that you may not become tired and give up.

Hi Inspector Clueso ...No need to be sorry...If the new sees is Fran, then you can bet she is laughing at everyone because the thread is once now on her and not on Jesus...If it is her, then God will show us all, we wait upon the Lord who will show all things in His timing without us assuming, if nots Fran then let Laureen be Lareen lol, we all have similar traits but different personalities...xox...

Sonship is to rule with His authority. The end of this I mean. We all are learning how to be children of God. I think most will relate to children, but the truth is that in the spirit we are not male or female, but our pattern is Jesus. The Son. We are sons too...but only one head. Members of the Son.
And Sonship is our salvation too. The end of our faith.

Thank you for trying Another thing is, if you have a person on ignore and try to use any of the search functions to find anything connected to them, it will not show up, either, because all their account information is essentially hidden to you, even though you can see when they make a post, their account info is not there unless you open the post. A guest account is essentially the same, because there is no profile/account any more. Everything connected with it has been deleted, aside from posts and threads they made If there was a way to use the search function for guests, that might be handy, but it is not something that overly concerns me, even though it would be handy if it were different . I am just sharing things I have learned
