Anointing is not free. If we are to carry more grace then God will make us worthy of it. Often, especially in some circles, people don’t know what they’re asking when they ask for more anointing. Because of His mercy, His answer is often “no”.

Again, there is the standard of the Levitical Law and there is the standard of the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus. Two different Laws, two different covenants, two different priesthoods. "There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk...

Quoted for posterity. The Lord's standard is clear: the unrighteous will not inherit the Kingdom of God. Our righteousness is in Him alone. Don't be a slave to sin. The Law makes you a slave to sin. Accept Christ and be free from the Law of Sin and Death.

They 10 Commandments did not end. They are for the unrighteous and the 14%'ers. You're almost there with Levitical priesthood. If you continue you might find out why the entire priesthood had to change. So close.

No, you're a 14%er because you reserve only 1 day out of 7 to honor God. In Christ, we are to give all. As long as it is called "Today". Why is your devotion to God so weak? Who gave you permission to take 86% of the time off?

The foundation of any law is the promises secured by it. Don't put the cart before the horse. A law without promise is tyranny. Not only did the Law change with the new covenant BUT the priesthood also changed. The Law is now reserved for evil people. The New Covenant is the covenant of...

Right. This same John wrote this: " "And whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His sight. Ok John, what are His commandments? The very next verse: 23 And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of...

They do when the new is greater than the old. Old = Don't commit adultery / New = Don't lust for another Old = Don't do your own work on the Sabbath / New = A son con do only what he sees his Father doing. Enter My Sabbath as long as it is called "Today"

Not for God. He is life eternal. The standard of love is now the same for God and man: ”A new commandment I give to you: Love one another as I (Christ) have loved you.” The Law represented a temporal economy “until Christ was revealed”. This is what the Levitical priests administrated, the...

Yes, and it was already promised that through Abraham's Seed (singular) that righteousness would come to all. Paul revealed that Christ is the fulfillment of that promise. The Law, then, was the schoolmaster of Abraham's natural lineage (the Jews) so that they could come to Christ safely. The...

Yep. (I could probably expound upon each sentence with a full page. This is just an outline.) Remember: the Law was added because of transgressions. Christ actually returned us to a time of righteousness before the Law. This is how we, who are in Christ, are Abraham's seed. "Abraham...

Yes! And Christ, not the Law, is the standard of our righteousness. “But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God and righteousness and sanctification and redemption, that, as it is written, “He who glories, let him glory in the Lord.” We must never think that because...

Yeah, Adam could have intervened. If he had, the enemy would have been driven away. There is good Biblical evidence that babies are born innocent of sin even though the environment into which they are born is sinful. Even in the natural, long-term memories are not created until sometime around...

You're okay. But I doubt I can teach you much about this. No worries. Carry on brother.

:D In the past, in my clinical practice, I would use the same thing to settle down parents who were overly emotional about their child's behavior. Them: "I can't believe they did that!" Me: "Well, by adult standards children are clinically insane." Them: "What?!" Me: "Play with their food...

Not a chance. The Bible is not a moral book. It is spiritual and to be understood spiritually. That means without the Spirit of God in a man, that man cannot understand what God is saying through the scriptures. To treat it as a moral book would be to make it another Law of Sinai where the...

It's only known buy the observer, sure, but no one may rightfully judge Him. He is. Thankfully it is His good pleasure to reveal Himself to us. By His creation all men may know He is God. By His Spirit some men may know Him as Father.

The Bible speaks of "wisdom from above" as a standard of reason for the sons of God. So, I will employ what I have gained from my connection with God to answer your questions. I won't have room to unpack everything but I invite further discussion. ("And the apostles and elders came together for...

I agree. You will not find "non-belief" in the Bible. The word you will find is "unbelief". Because believing God is mans' typical spiritual setting, to NOT do so requires intention and action. Unbelief is an intentional lifestyle marked by not believing God.

Rome, way back in the 380's, when they offered the church to be the state church of the empire, offered church leadership: 1. Health care 2. Lower taxes 3. Preferred property ownership and business 4. Strong military support 5. Clean up corruption to make things more "Christian" In exchange...
