Faith... and Trust: The Same Things?

by AGuest in

in a discussion with some other dear ones, the question was asked as to what such ones put their faith in.

in response to one comment that"one can't function without faith," another disagreed, stating ones can, that "many do so every day... the ones who have trust" (in things like the sun rising in the east versus the west).

that trust extended to "faith" based "on nature and the natural order of things.

dear New Chapter...

thank you for the complementary things that you've said, and thank you for understanding, quite clearly, my pov.

dear Tammy...

I have said that I believe that AGuest loves an entity and hears a voice that she calls her lord...I think that she is being deceived by a demon and she disseminates the teaching that that entity gives her.

I have said that I think that you are being deceived by that same demon, whether directly or through AGuest I don't know...but I don't think that you "follow" it and I've never said that. In fact, I've mentioned more than once that I think that you follow or display your own values and characteristics which are kind and nice...they appear to us all to be Christ-like.

But this is why I think you are being deceived. scripture states that when you are in Christ you are crucified with Him and it is no longer you that lives but Christ lives in you(gal 2:20)...and that God works to reveal His Son in you(gal 1:16)...and that you have put on Christ (gal 3:27)...and that Christ is being formed in you (gal 4:19) scripture also states that there is one Spirit of Christ and if that same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you...you are His. (romans 8:9,11). You have been deceived into believeing that AGuest has that Spirit of Christ without God having displayed any of His power in making her over to be of or reveal the same Spirit AS Christ. She admits that she is not like Christ but that she tries..."oh, how she tries but,..." she says. The truth is this...Jesus says, "If you abide in Me, I will abide in you." (1 corinthians 12:13)

You have testified that you are in union with the same "christ" that AGuest is in union with...and that is where you are deceived. That "spirit" is not the Spirit of Christ...your own character and values are closer to the Spirit of Christ...but, for some reason which is only known to you, you have allowed yourself to be blinded and you favor the "spirit" or entity that AGuest witnesses to.

dear AGuest...

I trust that other people that have checked out your site are reporting the truth of what they have seen...I didn't need to go there myself to comment on things they have posted here. I can also surmise who some of the people are who are over there waiting on your "word"...they did the same thing here.

dear OUTLAW...

I wasn't including you with those I am concerned about...I was speaking about those who are lapping up that which is falsely called knowledge...those who are making spiritual alliances, conflicting "spirits" joining house to house, so to speak, under the pretense of being of the same spirit as Christ. This is what worries and concerns me...a diplomatic agenda to gather people together under a false christ...to receive the mark of the beast.

I am not purposefully attempting to be critical of AGuest...I want to warn her as much as anyone else. It is the "spirit" that she witnesses to, that has aligned itself with her that I seek to expose as a false christ.

dear Chariklo...

it sounds like you go there and get the same atmosphere that you find in a church...but in the case of that forum it is reverence for all things "spiritual".

dare I say that some people might even check in "religiously"...more often than they would a church because there is no accountability to those "outside" that mindwarp...if you are one to bow and scrape before AGuest...would you invite someone you respected from "outside" to check in there?...how about your boss, or a priest from your church?

I have no desire to accept the mark of the beast, which is what AGuest's forum no doubt hands out with it's *diplomacy wrapped in pseudo christian "spirituality"...

flee from her...(1 timothy 6:1-2, 20-21)

*The art or practice of conducting international relations, as in negotiating alliances, treaties, and agreements.

good morning...

one of the things that I am concerned about regarding the new areopagus that AGuest and tec "set up" is the fact that that IS their place to meet with others and share their "faith(s)". acts 17:21

I wonder what these people would do if the internet went down forever...where would these people go to gather with like-minded individuals?...they have rejected true and honest fellowship with the mainstream church. I know AGuest and co. have been building their "church" on sand, essentially. the internet is indispensable to their fellowship. Jesus built the church on peter and wind and rain has not washed it away...the fellowship IS without the internet. ephesians 2:19-22

they have both faith and trust in their marketplace of ideas now but will they be ones who are lamenting?...1 corinthians 3:9-17...revelation 18:14,17

She Lost Her Man

by compound complex in

.

she peers into a water whose blackness is obsidian, whose depth is leagues greater than that of an atlantean trench that swallows, to this day, unwary mariners in search of mysterious ports of call.. is it a wandering lost love whom she seeks, him in search of el dorado, a hidden city of overgrown ruins, an impassable verdure that beckoned a foolish man to abandon home and hearth and true love?.

the woman looks in vain: dark water cannot be fathomed any more so than the fickle heart of a lover who abandoned her when seduced by elusive, temporal riches that whispered from below .

If you could read my mind love
What a tale my thoughts could tell
Just like an old time movie
'Bout a ghost from a wishin' well
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
With chains upon my feet
You know that ghost is me
And I will never be set free
As long as I'm a ghost that you can't see
If I could read your mind love
What a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a paperback novel
The kind that drugstores sell
When you reach the part where the heartaches come
The hero would be me
But heroes often fail
And you won't read that book again
Because the ending's just too hard to take

I'd walk away like a movie star
Who gets burned in a three way script
Enter number two
A movie queen to play the scene
Of bringing all the good things out in me
But for now love, let's be real
* I never thought I could ACT this way *
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
I don't know where we went wrong
But the feelin's gone
And I just can't get it back

If you could read my mind love
What a tale my thoughts could tell
Just like an old time movie
'Bout a ghost from a wishin' well
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
With chains upon my feet
But stories always end
And if you read between the lines
You'll know that I'm just tryin' to understand
The feelin's that you lack
I never thought I could feel this way
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
I don't know where we went wrong
But the feelin's gone
And I just can't get it back

dear Tammy...

you said: "But Christ did make those statements about those who did good to even the least of his brothers; and the sheep entering the kingdom did NOT know Him, but did all the things that He asked of us. So they do have the law (which is of love) written on their hearts."...

it wasn't that these didn't know Jesus (at least in the sense that you are suggesting), Tammy. both addressed Jesus as Lord...they did do things as doing it unto Him or they didn't do things as doing it unto Him

the natural "law" that God found when searching the heart of man is more in keeping with:"The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked"...

in order for some one to have the "law of love" WRITTEN on their heart, someone would have to WRITE over the natural law that God found. Jesus does not impose Himself on anyone or their heart...

given that the intention of Jesus IS to glorify God, the FIRST law ever written on the heart of a believer is love the Lord GOD and then the one just like it...love your neighbour as yourself.

Things which have no meaning have meaning

by Terry in

this sentence is invisible but has meaning when it is not invisible.

in the above box we have a sentence that contains "meaning".

but, it only has meaning because you are curious enough to find it.. without curiousity and a drive to discover we can't even see the things which have no meaning that have meaning.. .

myelaine

curiosity helps fill in the blanks...

and finds you spelling two words wrong in as many days...(not judging)

Can YOU solve the following Paradox??

by Terry in

before i address the paradox (a statement that contradicts itself) i want to insert a fact from history.. .

the romans used a malleable (and highly poisonous) metal (lead) for water pipes and conduits.

as snows melted into pure water, it was channeled into sluices and pipes made of lead that ran through the cities as drinking water.. .

myelaine

dear Terry...

you said: "God could "manifest" a book, surely. Why use human emanuensis?"

God speaks to humans through human language which is THE WAY the majority of us communicate our thoughts.

example: So Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and laid before them all these words which the Lord commanded him. Then all the people answered together and said, “All that the Lord has spoken we will do.” So Moses brought back the words of the people to the Lord . exodus 19:7-8

p.s. "Can anybody give just one example of a NON-interpreted "Truth?""...can you give me the answer to the math question I'm thinking of? let me simplify it for you. its an addition question. there are 7 numbers involved.

dear Cold Steel...

you said:" Not only did they believe that all men have spirits, but that man existed prior to coming to Earth. (See Jeremiah 1:5)"

God knows the end from the beginning. He knows each of us...whether we will respond to His call on our life or not. He knows our destiny because He has seen it. He can provide opportunities for those who are called to minister effectively knowing that they will take ever opportunity to preach the word...those would be the very elect. Called to be sent from the very beginning because God knew them. The same "thing" for jeremiah as for all the other prophets that God had foreknowledge of...the apostles...all the way into our "time".

No human existed before we entered this earthly realm. Not even the flesh body of Jesus.(He always existed in union with the Father and the Holy Spirit as the Son of God) When (most) humans die they enter the "paradise" spoken of in luke (the rich man and lazarus) this is not the eternity where God resides.(the highest heaven) This is where the just and the unjust are resurrected from. (Some humans are translated into eternity, we have Jesus and elijah as known examples of this and the beloved apostle paul was also hoping for this "better resurrection", the resurrection of Christ he called it)

Because God resides outside of our time in eternity, it can be said that the end of our time has already been seen and "experienced" in that eternity by God and by those who have entered into it and it may be God's will that some be sent "back" into our "time" at God's will...elijah would again be an example of this, having made his appearance known twice already as himself, as JtB and scripture says he will come once more ...

anyway...we are told in the scriptures that the flesh comes first and then we are born of the Spirit through salvation which is in Jesus Christ alone.

Can you solve the JW puzzle about "soul" and "spirit" ?

by Terry in

this is a real puzzler.. .

for christendom at large there is no problem in thinking of humans as a body (tent) which houses the soul.. .

for jehovah's witnesses the human is the tent.

myelaine

dear Terry...

you said:

"Example:
A Baptist dies and his soul goes back to Jehovah.

A Jehovah's Witness ANOINTED dies and what happens? How does what happens to the anointed differ in any way from that of your garden variety Baptist?"...

I think the JW anointed are considered part of the "composite Christ"...therefore they each have a share in the Spirit which raised Jesus...they *teach that no one else on the planet has a share in this Spirit except their anointed. I think that's why they teach that only the anointed go straight to heaven.

I also think that is why the GB insist that you have to be in union with the org. in order to be saved. They are part of the "composite saviour"

ok...maybe they don't outright *teach that, but I think it was taught at one time and it hasn't been repudiated.
