That is a good idea, as "imperative" denotes what must come. But my reason for using "prerogative" is to show that the enemies of the saints have the right to tempt us according to God's allowance, which is all for our learning and good! It's often about strengthening the faith of the believers...

Hi, and yes He has already won it all for us who believe! God bless!!

The opposition (self, Satan, society) has a right to attempt to “trouble” you, because God allows it so He can show us that He uses it for our “good.” Thus strengthening our faith. The issue here is how quick your resolution solves, and this is up to the believer! There is no reason to allow...

It’s obvious that some things written in the Word of God are more difficult to ascertain than others, requiring deeper understanding, especially concerning the eschatology of Israel. It’s my belief that God may have been a bit protective concerning teachings that relate to the end times of His...

Hi, will do, and thanks for the encouraging reply! I see the "big bad three as self (old self or old man), Satan, and society! God bless!

Are you maintaining a clear conscience (1Ti 3:9)? If not, we are not giving the Lord Jesus the glory for it! There is no reason for a saint to allow the oppositions (self, Satan and society) to produce guilt in ones thoughts. God knows the believer’s objective is ever to “please” Him, because...

The most difficult thing within Christianity is the trials saints will bear; but God will not allow us to endure more than we are supposed to endure (1Co 10:13; Heb 12:4; 1Jo 5:3). Nevertheless, trusting God in all our “hardness” (2Ti 2:3) is the primary reason He takes us through every single...

No, but thanks for asking, and God bless!

What is recorded in Scripture?

Hi, and appreciate your encouraging comments! God bless!!

Appreciate the support and God bless!

Amen, and thanks for the comment!

Most believers are familiar with Romans 8:28, which is the most encouraging passage: “We know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.” It’s my suspicion that many Christians do not have sufficient understanding...

Hi, and good comments! Of course many are not aware, but God "works" in us everything we need to "please" Him (Phl 2:13). This is without fail; and if this is prevented--it means we're not His yet, because He works in every individual one who is reborn!!

Appreciate the reply, and God bless!

Our Father would have us to “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2Pe 3:18). He lovingly carries this out by delivering us “unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the Life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh” (2Co 4:11). The natural tendency of...

Hi, and thanks for the reply! What you say is true, but one reborn will never let Satan to overcome him, because of God's "work" in the believer (Phl 2:13).

Not a cloud of guilt, nor any evil power of control remains for the believer in the Lord Jesus! The "old man," at rebirth, has lost both its "condemnation" (Ro 8:1) and "dominion" (Ro 6:14) on the believer. The guilt is gone because Christ has taken its curse; and its power to cause the believer...

This article demonstrates the two levels of maturity in Christ; living on Him here via the “manna,” which indicates Christ’s Life when He was here. Or living on Him on the “corn of the land,” which indicates living on Him where He is now—big difference! NC There Is A Difference! The corn of...

It may be one of the least interesting of things, but there is much growth in knowing God’s concerns for us when we are troubled, especially when in great difficulty! It is when we are going through a trial—regardless the size, that our spiritual growth increases the most. To know that God is...
