Does God Draw People

Yes, we must do a work before we are born of the spirit: Jeremiah 4:4: "Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, and take away the foreskins of your heart, ye men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my fury come forth like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings." Luke 5:37: "And no man putteth new wine into old bottles, else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish." Remember Simon? Acts 8: 21: "Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God."

Gifts Of Healing Flowing
	No, I do not think you should neuter it. You'll lose it.

Healed Us By His Stripes
	What be the meaning of Isaiah 53, v11: "...by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many..."?

Christians Follow Ten Commandments

Ephesians 6:1-3: "Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Honour thy father and mother, (which is the first commandment with promise,) That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth." Paul was never oppossed to sound doctrine. Ephesians 1:17: "And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:" How could any named christian oppose the word of God at their convenience? Is it that they are not sincere? Ephesians 1:24: "Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen."

Blotted Out Of Book Of Like

"Dont live in daily torment. Sancitification IS instantaneous.." JackB "For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified." Who is perfected are those which ARE santified. Jeremiah 4:4: "Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, and take away the foreskins of your heart, ye men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my fury come forth like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings." Thereafter comes the perfecting, yet even a serious foot washing (sin is no small matter) here and there is needed. Yeah right, trying to climb any other way...

Mother Is A Confirmed Atheist

mima, And you here give a perfect example of wrongdoing. I have not spoken of works of the law. Isaiah 1:16-17: "Wash you, make you clean, put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes, cease to do evil, Learn to do well, seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow." Romans 2:7-8: "To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life: But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, ..." You've chosen to be ignorant as those who've wounded jody's mom's conscience, luckily not her heart! Your gospel is not watered down, it is non existent.

Marry My Hindu Boyfriend

"Just as I may eat, drink, sleep, walk, ride with, buy from, speak to, and deal with a heathen, Jew, Turk, or heretic, so I may also marry and continue in wedlock with him. Pay no attention to the precepts of those fools who forbid it. You will find plenty of Christians and indeed the greater part of them who are worse in their secret unbelief than any Jew, heathen, Turk, or heretic. A heathen is just as much a man or a woman, God's good creation as St. Peter, St. Paul, and St. Lucy, not to speak of a slack and spurious Christian." Martin Luther

Holy Spirit Tingles Inside

"Nana, Do you have a moral constitution and if so where did you get it from?" earl From my parents, from the elders in my home town, from my friends, my enemies and thereafter out of the fullness of my heart. From a "script" or "paper"? Unlike perhaps you, I was not born in a library, neither was nursed by books, rather breast fed. That which you call "moral constitution" came about because inmorality, "Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so." "Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you." Watch, atheist may be ahead of you by miles!

Did Jesus Break The Ten

Paul was not blameless concerning the commandments except in his own eyes and the eyes of those Pharisees of the day who oppossed Jesus, Matthew 23, John 8. On the subject of overcomming sin, Pauls speaks of himself: 1 Timothy 1:13: "Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief." mima and Kath, are you teachers against the law? 1 Tim 1:7 1 Tim 1:8,9,10,11.

Did Jesus Break The Ten

"Paul ... In fact he murdered anyone who did." kathr4453 You've a secret I don't? Did Paul kept a secret murdering business going,that only you know? Ridiculous! He left the murdering behind him, alongside his ignorance. "David said..Blessed is the man who's sins are forgiven...where God will not impute sin.." God declared in Isaiah 1 a two-step-aproach: One 16-17: "Wash you, make you clean, put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes, cease to do evil, Learn to do well, seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow." Two 18: "Come now, and let us reason ... though your sins be as scarlet, ..." Skip the One, forget the second.

Holy Spirit Tingles Inside

"The ministry then is not yet immoral .And I have no clue to what Mima'a ministry is about." ---earl on 11/17/09 If you "have no clue to what Mima'a ministry is about", you can't defend it as "not yet inmoral". "... but considering you are atheist and no moral constitution exists for atheists how can you prove it even if using the golden rule?" That of course is ridiculous, unless atheist is writting from jail while serving time for "moral" infractions, he is as free and as moral as yourself.

Did Jesus Break The Ten
	"interesting Mima atheists mormons hindu's myriad of other religions do not murder cover or commit adultery, honor their parents bigger deception is you MUST also believe Christ is keeping these commandments for them "in their hearts" too to believe your LIE then one must IGNORE CHRISTS VERY OWN WORDS which say if you LOVE ME KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS" Rhonda on 11/16/09 Amen Rhonda!

Is God's Grace For All

Matthew 21:31: "Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you." "The last will be first", but only by doing the will of the Father. There is no being justified in your sin. There is no blood that washes except on acceptance and realization of the presence of Christ, thereafter is ineffective. Why else is He advocating for men, 1 John 2:1, if it is covered already? Get it? Get going then, follow them publicans and the harlots in their NEW direction.

Mother Is A Confirmed Atheist
	1 Corinthians 13:12: "For now we see through a glass, darkly, but then face to face: now I know in part, but then shall I know even as also I am known." Because jody's mom have such tender heart for the "forefathers" and the ancient people who believed in the God of creation, she will someday speak face to face with God and she will have her place with Him.

Does God Change
	Indeed it is Love that teaches a child, 'Do not eat those berries, only eat from these..., etc' Of course God changes, just like a Father changes his original plans to accomodate the wellbeing and comfort of his children: Jeremiah 18:8: "If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them."

Giving, Tithing And Offerings
	"Yet Christians depend on keeping neither works, nor law, in order to gain grace." Glenn on 11/11/09 Of course, you are totally wrong and the opposite is the way it is. You say, "Here, here, this way...!". I say, 'Do not follow that dude!'

Marry My Hindu Boyfriend
	jody, I also say to you the same thing, "I do feel for you and your dilemma." If you were on a sinking ship directing 'people' to the life boats, what would you say? Perhaps, "christian women and children first..."? Hope and pray you do not ever find yourself on their sinking ship, for humanity have the need and neccessity to treat others as they are treated.

Autistic or Asperger Christians
	It is understandable that the Asp will bring little aspies into the world. Food for tought: Years ago I had a coworker which was quite the compulsive and spastic gallore, and he was the shift supervisor too. His son developed the same traits, only that it wasn't his blood son but rather his stepson.

Does God Change

"It's so simple. We are NO LONGER under the law IF we are led by The Spirit." ---Gary on 11/9/09 When that happens it is said that "we establish the law." (Rom 3:31) What is the Law? Asside from ceremonial, it is a pattern of right conduct. Men see a Christian's footsteps before they see what guide him. Matthew 5:16: "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven." Why christians despise the Law is beyond me!
