Many people do not know who/what the Holy Ghost really is, or how to recognize his presence (or lack thereof)...even in themselves. Yes, that is a bold statement. Perhaps you even think it is wrong. But the bible shows that one person (or group of people) CAN discern whether another person (or...

I was looking up Isaiah 28:10 as part of something for church but couldn't keep from reading verse 11. And I really want to say Thank you Jesus for giving the stammering lips and another tongue that is the rest for the people. Yes, I realize that there are those who don't appreciate speaking...

Water baptism, since its establishment by John the Baptist (at God's commandment) is for remission of sins (Mark 1:4, Luke 3:3). Remission means separation from; removal of; washing away of. The name of Jesus was added after Jesus rose from the dead (Luke 24:47) and being water baptized...

Do you believe a person needs the Holy Ghost/Spirit? Should a person call him or herself a Christian if they don't have the Holy Ghost/Spirit? Are there are people out there who call themselves Christians even though they don't have the Holy Ghost/Spirit? Do you think they are safe if they...

To the wise, 1 Corinthians 2:10 says that the deep things of God are searched by the Spirit of God and that God has revealed them to us. He's not kidding/lying/exagerating. This is just a word to the wise that if you really want to know the deep things of God go ahead and ask him about them...

This may sound strange to those who have not yet received the Holy Ghost. Being BAPTIZED with the Holy Ghost/Spirit means a person has received the Holy Ghost/Spirit permanently. Being FILLED with the Holy Ghost/Spirit means it has pushed everything else out until there is no room left for...

God will open the mysteries if you ask him to. Love in Jesus, Kelby

If you don't know that the purpose of man's existence on this earth is for man to have the opportunity to choose, you might simply consider that it is appointed for man only once to die. Hebrews 9:27 Because we only exist in, and exit, this life only once, it is wise to consider what choices...

My oldest biological son has a habit of starting conversations with "Teach me a life lesson." How would you answer that question to your beloved? Well, that's what this thread is asking. Share with us. ... "Teach us a life lesson." Please note: If the "lesson" you intend to share is...

I propose that God does not have a problem with salvation coming one piece at a time. (instead of everything happening all at one moment as man has taught us). That's a bold statement. Can it be proven in the scriptures? It’s not hard if you remember/consider/realize that God separated the...

"Step by Step" just means we ought to look at the issue cautiously, watching for the point where a conclusion is reached that is NOT actually stated. I picked the case of Eve as a first subject because it's a good example of "details matter" and more people have heard of this mistake over...

Almost everyone who comes here has a doctrine through which information is filtered. But do they have a way to test if their filter is accurate? (NO, it's NOT enough to ask others with the same filter "Do you think our doctrine is correct?" because who would answer "Well, No, we've been...

John 14:12 KJV says: "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father." Why, seeing we have this statement from Jesus (and both the old and new testaments), and all the teachings...

Are you more like Peter BEFORE he received the Holy Ghost... or AFTER? Do you really know what the difference is? (can you verbalize it?) And do you have the same thing Peter has? Would you have the courage to admit it if you don't? Love in Jesus, Kelby

Please re-read Matthew 15:12-14. In verse 13 Jesus is pointing out that there are two types of people (among those who claim to serve God). One type, when they don't know something, knows how to go to God (until God answers them, and...) until God plants them solidly, in peace, in truth...

This message is for ALL, Satan tries really hard to make it sound like an insult rather than an exhortation when someone is advised that they still need to receive the Holy Ghost. ESPECIALLY if that person has faith. It can be clearly stated that Peter, James and John were even made APOSTLES...

Man (i.e. your pastor/teacher/priest) is limited in understanding, limited in knowledge, limited in ability to express things to you in a way that you will understand. God is unlimited in understanding, unlimited in knowledge, unlimited in ability to express things to you in a way that you will...

Praise God, I finally understand why it is when a particularly good piece (or pieces) of truth are spoken, that certain negative individuals (some call them trolls) are drawn seemingly unstoppably to that piece of truth...and begin to say the most negative things. And when you ask them "Why...

From Romans 8:9 So many who frequent the BDF claim to know Christ but don't even know what His spirit is, or how to know whether someone has (or has not) the Spirit of Christ. As a side result, because they don't know how to tell what it is, or if the Spirit of Christ is in someone else...

I ask you to consider and discuss the truth of the following statement: If the words that ended up in the bible are the "That which is perfect" which was needing to come...and they fulfilled that role the very moment they were spoken or written into existence... then there was ZERO need for...
