However, the truth in the question is not simple. Neither was the title "to be or not to be". I had to look it up because I couldn't remember the context. I just put down what I was moved in Spirit to say.
 
Not offended.......first time I have seen you post here........I asked thinking that you could post a "link" to your original "greetings" post.


I write this with greetings to my brothers and sisters in Christ the Lord and to those who are asleep. Recently I was awakened, praise be to God. For I too was in a deep sleep.


I belive I said hi, if I didn't and this offends you. I'm sorry, did you say hi to me?

If you are asking why the message then, and and yet I speak of sleep. It is because back then I was not fully awake yet, I was back and forth in spiritual battle. The enemy had clouded my mind causing me to forget the fact the battle was won. Due to being and living partly worldly and distracted/asleep, I found myself tourmented, which you will see if you read some of my posts, like our brothers in the Bible, asking why do I give in to temptation and do the things I don't want too. That I cannot defeat my flesh by living in my flesh. This means you must be on guard at all times. Giving over completely to God. Seeking Him as a man seeks water And shade in the desert. Everyday, every second, every hour Him being the focus of your life and His Will.

Even then sometime the enemy sneaks one by you for no one is perfect. Sometimes it is to humble you, remind you, so that you do not become boastful or prideful. Think yourself to be righteous, therefor you begin to judge your brother in your flesh and react in your flesh. I pray I do not fall asleep again, for I am nothing before the Throne of God and without Him. My life is nothing without Him, it is meaningless. Because I Love Him. I am but a witness and servant. I am not above any brother or sister, saved or lost or asleep. I am not deserving of blessings or accolades, I am deserving of death. It is only through Faith, Grace and the salvation given by the sacrifice for sins by the lamb of God am I saved.

Now I have a question for you, if I took a glass and filled it with water to the center.

Tell me then, is the glass half emphty? Or half full?
 
Sorry, I can barely navigate around here. Someone said I had 50 something posts. I don't remember posting that much, perhaps they were replies? Either way, why is my getting so important to you? Do you have a question?
 
Since no one has answered my question I asked, I will Give you the answer and ask another.

If you had answered , the glass is half emphty? You would be correct!

If you had answered the glass is half full, you would also be correct!

Can anyone tell me the truth and why?
 
Not offended.......first time I have seen you post here........I asked thinking that you could post a "link" to your original "greetings" post.



No, sorry brother, no link, don't know when I did it. Where I did it. It doesn't matter. I'm here now. Stay and break bread.
 
How to Live

Brothers and Sisters,

Consider the heavens and the stars. How God has placed them each with their respective path and course to follow in season and time around the sun as we travel through the universe.

Each planet will follow their paths accordingly, with the sun at the center, because of the interaction of gravity. At the appropriate time they cross each other making for a perfect dance giving and sustaining life.

So what can we then learn by this sign?

God has a plan for you, He has set His Son at the center of the plan. If you make anything more important or greater then God, His word or His Son. Then you begin to orbit that other thing. That other thing begins to orbit you. Your gravities now impact each other , therefore you now are thrown off course. Because you are off course now you start to impact other planets around you and their gravity pushing them off course, because you have changed the order and your planned orbit. Now there in chaos leading to distraction/destruction.

Now, if a planet realizes it is off course and corrects itself, centering its path in unison back with the Sun at the center. Then it's gravity in turn will impact those around it. Pushing them back the other way. Pushing them back on course. Thereby restoring order and life.

Evil begets evil and good begets good!

This is your life if you put your life course on anything other then centered on God. Then chaos and distraction by nature will naturally follow.

Do you know understand? You were not made to circle honor and flow anything but the Lord your God!

Love, your humble brother in Christ

physically speaking, the glass, and the water in it, are 99.999% empty space.

but those physical things are neither the water, nor the cup, that is ours to drink :)

you know, planets do precess in their orbits. but it isn't the planets "awareness" of being "off course" that keeps them centered - it's the natural force. the physical force one planets mass exerts on another planet is very small compared to the forces all the planets experience due to the center, the sun. you could totally remove all but one of the planets, and though the orbit of the remaining one would measurably change, it would not be thrown out into darkness because of the lack of the others. that light He placed is the governing body - not the other satellites.

when we are in error, is it by our own wisdom that we discover our own fault and then by our own strength do we set our feet in the right path? we were dead when He called us and it's Him who made us alive! it's by His own hand that He chastises us when we stray, and His own shepherd's crook with which He turns us toward the path.

mathematically an "
r[SUP]2[/SUP] orbit" is extremely stable. it can experience very large perturbations and return to its equilibrium path within a small number of orbits.

He is fully able to keep you, and faithful to do so: He establishes our steps :)

when The Holy Spirit moves us, we hopefully should/would, never waver,..

I say Amen, I Hope and pray the same. I fell though, having the Holy Spirit, like a dog I chased s cat chasing my wants and desires for this world, I fell hard and fast asleep. It is my great sorrow that I did. Praise be to God I am awake again now though. Now I pray the Lord not let me no longer live my life it is dead, it was over when He saved, I just didn't know it. I live and pray I will always be with and live for Him. With humility for His Honor and Glory.

In a way, that is one way of kind of saying it, your close and I say amen, what I am saying.

The truth is, both answers are right because that is how man sees and lives life.....(.not full).

Man, when not in God or knowing him, or by living in the flesh and not by the Spirit. Have a void in them. This human/flesh void is a ravenous hunger that cannot be filled by things of this world. Just like the fallen, their off spring devoured everything exedingly because they were part angel. Who's can fathom the spiritual manna of heaven for an angel? Therefore their hunger all the greater.

So you see the glass is always full! For that which the water does not fill up, the air does!

So who is the prince of the power of the air?
 
oh how we both Love PR's perception and insight, you better be a real fighter for something
to beat Him at your 'game'...

I am sorry, i am not sure what you are asking or stating? Don't worry, you will find I am sure many messages where my fingers messed up what I was trying to say. Old eyes don't help much either :). These hand held devices don't do me any favors.

No one will answer this? This one was an easy question.

It is the Father of lies!!
Ephesians 2:2

Do you see brothers and sisters? Then we allow him to be in, and part of our lives!!

We try to fill this void, the devils foothold, with many things, "knowledge" taught of/by man, instead of seeking the truth ourselves. By filling our lives with food, or sex, drugs and possessions. Never ever being truly satisfied. You cannot fill a spiritual void with worldly things. Only with the Spirit of God!

If you drink the water Christ offered the Samaritan woman. Then you thirst no longer for you will be filled. He offers you that very drink this day!!

It is written, John 4:14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

This well shall be fill you with the Holy Spirit till that void is gone and your cup will runith over.

Then you will truly understand what it means to live in the Spirit!

The Bible emphasizes the excessive love, blessing, and power that God desires to pour out on those who Love Him (Malachi 3:10; Lamentations 3:22; Psalm 108:4). Jesus reflected God’s generosity when He said, “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly” (John 10:10)

So how may you have it abundantly? When you are saved and follow God living in the Spirit and not the flesh.

Then you will see and understand why it is written: (James 2:16) But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? 22 Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect? 23 And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.”And he was called the friend of God. 24 You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.

Now I know some that have read this have fear in their hearts.

Behold I bring you good news!! This is good, you should Fear the Lord your God, for it is the beginning of wisdom. Because to fear you must believe, therefore God is moving your heart toward faith. Do not fear he who can destroy the body. Fear He who can destroy both body and soul. However, for those who LOVE God, there is salvation!! Amen!

As sure as you read my word with your eyes this very day I tell you. There is only one God!! The God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob. The God who chose Israel as His people, that through His Word (The Son of Man) created all life. Then the Word became flesh and saved it!! Making all things new and clean, fulfilling the old law. Just as he fordhadowed time and again in the Old Testament. Then making salvation available and waiting for everyone. John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Those who have repented from the heart in truth, out of fear, reverence and humility, God shall save. For They have believed in, and only in, the Son of God, the living sacrifice whom fulfilled the law and scriptures. Not because you deserve it. Because He Loves you!! So rejoice and believe!!

For those who are asleep, awaken and follow the two greatest commandments!! Stay Holy as commanded, the only way to do that is to keep your well clean and fresh. For he has overcome that you not be a slave to sin. Honor Him and Honor your Father in heaven. For those who are new believers you too must now show your humility, respect and Love for God. Who saved you when you did not/could not earn it. Who loves you when you did not deserve it!

Seek not the wisdom of Man. For if you have truly believed then you felt God come in you. It is undeniable. You were babtized by the Holy Spirit. Only God can save you!! The measure you give, is the measure you get. This does not only apply to judgment, it applies to faith.

So measure up your faith and believe in God who is reaching out to you. Read the Holy Bible like it is your air. Seek the Kingdom of heaven, the communion with God through the Holy Spirit. Seek and you shall find Him. Knock and the door will be open!! Pray for understanding. For as I have said before, behold the storm approaches and darkness falls on the land. Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!!

May God bless you and keep you!!

Your loving unworthy brother in Christ
