Jesus. The Way, the Truth, and the Life.
One minute men may love you, The next they may cast a stone, One minute you may be toast of the town, The next you may stand all alone, One minute you may have the world in your hand, The next one nothing to hold, One minute you may be a free man, The next one your life may be sold, One minute you may feel invincible, The next one defeated and lost, One minute you may be safe and…
…attitude are demonstrating that they are not of God. Jesus said and Peter affirms that true leaders lead by example, not by being overlords. We are greatest when we are the servants of all and use our time to be a blessing to others. May the Lord guide you into truth. And I pray that God will help you find ways to be a blessing to others. In so doing, you will be doing the mission of Christ. a pilgrim,…
…I had just been shown how Jesus is going to come back and how many people won’t be ready at His coming. In the dreams/visions I had I saw Jesus Christ in the clouds, the sky in those dreams/visions had a reddish color and just by the sight of the Son of God the whole world started to literally tremble and I could feel how terrified and sorrowful most people were because they were not ready. Even at that age…
…told me that she forgives me for every lie and every detail, even the ones she doesn’t know. She has no desire to know them all. She wants to move on but I feel so held back by these lies I told. How can I be set free from this? Do I need to confess to her anyway? Tim’s Answer In your situation, you have confessed your sin to your wife, but not all the details, and you lied about…
…of it; you’ve done nothing wrong.” Because of my stubbornness, I didn’t believe him. I still thought I was condemned. Anxiety overtook me. I could not stop the downhill spiral. I began to research blasphemy and became more anxious. The thoughts got worse. I was told I had religious OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder). I was in complete depression. I was a good girl. Blasphemy? I would rather die. I became more vulnerable. I was so weak that I couldn’t let…
I will bless The Lord always He will bless me back Because I trust in what He says I’ll never suffer lack Open handed is the way To live a blessed life It’s a healthy way to be Free from stress and strife. It hasn’t always been this way In fact I was quite tight Loved to see my money grow It was a pleasant sight Gradually, I realised That there was more to gain Through giving where The Lord…
…adult films, and I had ended up becoming an addict to that. We had TV’s in our rooms at the time, and I was watching it all the time. All of those things just felt so normal, because it was what I was exposed to. Once I got old enough to realize all those things were wrong, I felt so ashamed, and I hated myself. I resented myself; I didn’t want to be me. I hated the thought of sex….
…has the word “baptize” (including its other forms) and attempted to categorize them. I’ve discovered that there are a number of different baptisms (Hebrews 6:1,2), such as the baptism of the Holy Spirit (Luke 3:16, Acts 11:16 I Corinthians 12:13 & others), the baptism of Moses (I Corinthians 10:2), the baptism of John (Luke 20:4, Acts 18:25, 19:3 & others) and the baptism of Jesus (Luke 12:50, Mark 10:38-40, Acts 2:38, 19:5 & others). However, I want to focus on…
…is interesting that the CoC comes up with some “around the world” arguments on Acts 10 and then accuses us of twisting things in Acts 2. Tim’s Answer Thank you for your question. The linkage between repentance and the forgiveness of sins in Scripture varies depending on the passages. We can go to passages such as Luke 17:2-3 and see a clear cause/consequence relationship between repentance and forgiveness of sins. 1 John 1:9 seems to convey a similar relationship although…
…the coming of the Spirit only to belief (John 7:38), when He told Martha that whoever lives and believes in Him would never die (John 11:25-26), and in many other instances. Such statements simply would not be true if water baptism was also needed. The thief on the cross could not have been saved if water baptism was required. There are many other passages that are addressed elsewhere in articles on the subject, providing strong evidence that salvation is totally…
