    Judgement for those with despair? Help.

    I met a person who was raised catholic, they lived a very hard life and have had many horrible horrible things happen to them. They prayed and begged for God and after they never found any safety in him they gave up. They don’t believe in God anymore because they said how can God be real and let...

    I rely on understanding, and now, i no longer understand

    it seems to be my understanding that if faith does not beget actions, aka following the commandments of Christ, then it really isn't faith. because if you truly loved Christ you would act. so if i don't act it means i don't love, because i would do it for my father or my partner, but i wouldn't...

    Prophecy?

    Yeah I’m not sure, just the timing of it seems to indicate to me that somthing bad was supposed to happen then it did. I won’t go to say what the will of God is in this situation. I more question what’s the point? Why have the dream? How did I have a dream like that? I guess I’m more questioning...

    Prophecy?

    I’ve known many people religious or not that said they have had dreams that come true. I wonder how that works. I know how dosnt much matter but it’s intriguing

    Prophecy?

    Thanks for clarifying, I understand now that prophecy is the telling of the word. But all I can think about is how weird it was and the timing.

    Prophecy?

    The Bible says that in the last age men and their sons shall have prophecy. [a]And it shall be in the last days, saith God, I will pour forth of my Spirit upon all flesh: And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, And your young men shall see visions, And your old men shall dream dreams...

    Question about paul

    The word of God says that the Holy Spirit will gives us knowledge of all things and the words of God. “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and remind you of all that I said to you.” ‭‭John‬ ‭14‬:‭26‬ ‭NASB2020‬‬

    Question about paul

    Paul did not meet jesus nor his disciples, just knew the words he spoke and the old testament the book he wrote were powerful. The holy spirit gives many of us knowledge is that not just as important for every one as pauls words are? if we had every message given to somebody by the spirit and...

    do you hear voice of the Holy spirit?

    One think the spirit called me to do was to talk to God using the bible, seeing that it is his word. I ask God somthing, not major but just like you would talk to a normal person, and then in my head i will see a bible verse pop up and it will generally be an answer to the question i had. It...

    do you hear voice of the Holy spirit?

    I wanted to post this thread to see if anybody else hears the voice of the holy spirit sometimes. I hear it like a supremely clear thought in my head that matches scripture every time i hear it. I also hear it in many other ways such as pointing out times im being hypocritical to the faith, or...

    Theological Theories

    What you said, to me at least, assumes that God is within time, which leads you down a whole rabbit hole, because if God is in time then what created time, when was the beginning of God to mark the time expressions he uses. God created the universe that means he is outside of it. The universe...

    Theological Theories

    The lord time and time again corrected misunderstanding that the pharisees held to be the " true interpretation" of the word. why would people today reading jesus's words not go the same way. Pondering the word of God and his majesty leads only to understanding. He who SEEKS shall find. strive...

    Theological Theories

    I think its fun to ponder Gods majesty, If he had wrote every cool little aspect of himself and his creation in the bible the pageswould fill disney land up to the brim! it brings me closer to God to consider the unbelievably complex mechanism he set in place to enact his story, and that he...
