The kingdom isn't divided. There are a lot of groups with their various false doctrines, but the true kingdom is unified in the truth. From the get-go you've concentrated on the divisions, like so many others, so you can swoop in and a draw a following after you.
Sorry for the late reply I have been a bit busy. But yes you are correct the kingdom is not divided it is us the body that is divided that is the issue I have and why I am so focused on it. a kingdom divided cannot stand but a people divided will perish.

I'm not sure what following your talking about though as you are ware my efforts didn't produce much a few people were reached but aside from that a lot of good my efforts did.

I actually am grateful for this though because that is when you say sit back and watch what my God can do.

Believe me this division this spiritual warr that is going on in this forum it is going to fall and he is going to be the one that does it.

There is a spiritual battle going on here, I am currently going to another forum I found that has dark mode which is a true blessing for my eyes and I keep the tabs of cc and that forum open so I can switch easily and the other night I noticed something.

When I am on here my spirit is a certain way it isn't bad or anything but it still is not the true joy and peace of the spirit I switched to the other forum and instantly felt the change the spirit of this place compared to that place is different I was more of my real self more patient more caring more understanding I don't ever feel lead to go to the prayer section here I never understood why but in this forum I am going to if I see a prayer request I instantly rush over to help.

I know you don't like me but at the very least I hope you can see that I am at least trying to help everyone reach a much deeper intimate level with him and even if you don't that is fine I bear no ill will it's just to much of a hassle.

Lavender that is intersting like a candle or something?

But expecting to much is the essence of faith, if one dares to believe in hios ability to do what cannot be done and if they follow the spirit as he works behind the scenes they will see the fruits of their labor.

Right now it appears nothing is changing cc is still under attack and the spirit of God is here but not as much as it should be and my desire for this place to be brought to life to truly be alive in the spirit and living in the presence of God manifest in their lives for each person here I have wept for and prayed for this pace I even get exhausted from the intensity of my prayers for this place.

The change is already set in stone it is going to happen regardless of my efforts or not and when it does happen not if but when I just hope that I have room enough to dance with all my strength I won't be able o be still what so ever

what you need is pure lavender just put a tiny little drop on the entrance to your nostril should last a few hours.
A tiny bottle will last you months.
It would cost you 10 dollars

In the bible it was referred to as nard Jesus was.a fan of it.
Soldiers use it for PTSD.

It sounds like you have an emotional scar of your own friend maybe. A little phobia to.

As you breath it will relax your senses.

It works well with this music to
It will hekp your spirit and help you to connect with God befor you speak

When someone says don't put God in a box, aren't they really saying don't put God in the Bible?
I was around when this phrase was common amongst Church goers.
It means, "God, is Greater than Your problem, so don't go do something stupid and keep Him from helping you."

It takes us ALL a longer time to Learn than we desire, once we understand, what it is to Learn.
You are like the rest of us.
We can witness Angels and great Miracles in one Moment and jump out of our skibbies when we think our shadow moved on its own the very Next Moment.
We need to unbox our Faith, is the basic meaning to it.

I know this sounds odd but I am wondering if you know of what I am only learning in now. When I say on here that there is awhole other level and position with him that he is calling us to does that mean anything to you? Like almost as if you suddenly live in a different dimension with him?

If you mean, You are watching God Play Chess, and with every Move He chooses, you are given insight to understand why. And that could lead to understanding the Next Step in God's Plan, and, also gives you more awareness and Discernment to see beyond that One Single Move.

When I was a teenager, at night, sometimes I would close my eyes and I could see this far far away distant of an Image of what I assumed could be the coming New Jerusalem. In my 30's, at night sometimes, close my eyes, and that Image now appeared so much closer and I could now see more detail. Now, in my 50's, that Image is so close when I see it, the Image is so big It is now getting blurred. So, in my Discernment, I wonder if God showed me, from my Teens to my 50's, the progression of New Jerusalem getting closer and closer and it's been like a Thermometer for me to know we are way closer than we think to His Coming.

I didn't say you've been successful at drawing a following; I said that's been your goal all along. You said you see yourself as a prophet of the "new generation." That the church is hopelessly divided and only the new generation has any hope; that they should abandon the old and start over. God's word is more or less obsolete and you think we should follow the Spirit which gave us the scriptures in the first place. Doctrine doesn't matter; the new generation should be motivated by praise and worship as the first priority.

Anyone who has followed your posts knows this is what you've been preaching, if they've been paying attention.

no but you have brain damage.
Which may be causing your phobias of keeping your feeling in check.

I would recommend you try it, because I was like you.

God is the wrong size for a box.

But every time i have heard it said, about putting God in a box was when i was using scripture to refute some gnostic claim.

well the other thing bro the same type of music David played to the prophet was needed to calm his afflictions with spiritual restlessness.

So you see when your being used to by God to defend, your going to need these comforts to relax your mind even if your brain problem isn't causing you emotional restlessness, the spiritual battle waged against people being used to speak for God will.

So this is where you need the same musical instruments and calming remedies as used by the prophets of old.

But maybe you might think what is in your heart is enough, well that's ok to, but really oppression takes it toll.

Yrs that is exactly what I meanm wgeb I saw your response I just felt it you had what I have obtianed.

That is actually what were describing how you close your eyes and see the image that is something I do to too. I find it is easier to see when I can't. New Jerusalem I actually don't know much on that aside from it being in the 1000 year reign of Christ with a new heaven and new earth.

I remember being shown a golden city that looked like it was made of golden crystal like matrerial it was almost like glass looking or something.

Do you anything about a city like that?

Well if you recall the goal is something I have told many times to get us all to a deeper reality with him a position with him and make note of that word position it is important. The new generation is not the answer it is the result and no I am not a prophet for this generation I speak of he has shown is coming but is what one does when he gives you something to speak is it not?

And yes I speak a lot on the divsion of the church because it is and doctrine in the way we see it and use it only divides us and makes us argue with each other that is the fruit of the enemy not God if doctrine was so great it would bring us closer to God closer to each other the fruits of the spirit vs the fruits of the flesh.

Can I ask you something? what is about me that gets to you so much? you always seem to think you know my motives and iy is always a deception kind of thing I have said how I am I have explained many times my motives I have even said a prophet is not above the church it is a part of it.


The bitterness in your words concern me and if you know of all the things I have said why do you gloss over everything I said to explain the things I am speaking the reason for it and what we are called to do about it.

Oh I see that is what you meant. Except I don't know why you think emotions have to with it there was no feeling or emotion I simply speak of what he gives me.

Do you remember when we first met? that prophecy I gave? you prayed to God about it before responding, you could have just given your own thoughts on the matter but you didn't you waited for him to speak and you said a lightbulb just went off.

You were one of the very few if not perhaps the one whop most understood it I watched as you grew in the spirit how you thought how you were on here.

But you want me to be silent now you speak of my brain damage as if that has ever been a problem with God and as an emotional person yourself you understand that God is an emoitonal person as well you have connected to him emotionally in that way and it brought a light about you.

But now and I am not saying this to argue or anything or put you down but I just don't sense that same spark in you anymore.

I mean not because you or I or anyone else in any wayare in the wrong in fact if you want don't even put me or my words into the picture you can ignore everything I am saying

I just want to know that same spark is in you.

I have no bitterness toward you; not any more than I would for any false prophet. I don't hate you; I hate what you teach.

You say you want to get us all to a deeper reality. First off, that's a big red flag. Who appointed you to get us all to this deeper reality? The mere fact that you think it's your appointed duty to bring us all along just shows your arrogance. You're seriously deluding yourself and you're trying to get others to join in your delusion. You're making it up as you go along out of your own imagination. If you really wanted people to mature in Christ you'd be telling them to study His word and pray for sound doctrine and understanding.

You're free to post whatever you want but don't be surprised if I disagree.

Well I did enjoy the misic however it doesn't speak to me in the same way it may for you the kind of music that brings me to that serene place with him is sually more about the rythm and tone of the song the beat thatis what speakks to me first then the words in the song bring me to that place.

But no what is in my heart is not enough it isn't about my heart and it isn't about me it's about him he is the reason he is the entire point and when oppression does come it is not by my strength or my heart or my brain damage we walk in the spirit not the flesh the demons who come attack have no choice but to go back to the bowels of hell they came from they are under our feet as kings and queeens we who reigh in his kingdom the lies of the enemy make it seem as if they have any say in how we are effected by them as if they had any power over us what so ever

We are more than conquorers and oppression is only that oppression but the power of that oppression is pathetic
