Michael, Kenneth Hagin?  Grin

Nope!

Exactly what is your point?

If you are trying to get me to agree with your hatred, false judgements, and unmerited condemnnation of sincere men and women of God, you can forget it!

I refuse to walk hand in hand with satan, and do his work, while pretending to be Christs faithful servant!

I am real, I do not fake who I am in Christ Jesus, nor will I ever fake or limit who Jesus is in me!

I think that I've been here before.  Wink

I had a dream last night. I dreamed that I was awake, but I woke up and found out I was asleep.  Huh

I don't go to sleep anymore.  Grin

Oklahoma Howdy!

Hey I thought that was a siren I heard there in the twilight zone!

I've been really far behind for quite a while now, the other day though, I caught to myself, but when I got to where I had been, I'd already left, so now I'm behind all over again!  Grin

2755  Theology / General Theology / Re:Reasons For Christ's Coming. on: April 12, 2003, 11:20:25 AM
UP, UP, UP and AWAY
All of His will meet Him in the air when He comes.

For this we say unto you by the word of the lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.

For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
1 Thessalonians 4:15-17

......Surely I come quickly; Amen.  Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
Revelation 22:20

2756  Theology / General Theology / Re:The true power of God. on: April 12, 2003, 11:18:59 AM
Amen. The true power of God is seen when the Word of God and God the Holy Spirit work jointly to bring about the new birth through the Gospel -- the saving power of God.  This does not come *by observation*, since the *kingdom of God is within you* and is like the wind which can be heard but not seen (Jn. 3:Cool. Further, His power is seen when the Lord transforms a vile sinner into the image of Himself, as evidenced by the apostle Paul himself.

In this connection, it is important to note how God communicates with His saints and servants, through the incident with Elijah (1 Kings 19:11-13). God was not in the gale force wind, nor in the earthquake, nor in the fire, but was *A STILL SMALL VOICE* (v.12).  Do we hear Him, because that's how the Lord speaks today?

Today the only signs and lying wonders are from the adversary and deceiver, and *seducers shall wax worse and worse*.

You folks who deny the miracle working power of God through the mighty power of the Holy Ghost for this hour and day have absolutely no credible Biblical evidence of any kind to support, or in any prove that that power has ever passed away!

You are the seducers and deceivers, the subverters of souls, who spread the devils lies throughout the body of Christ!

No wonder your churches are so dead, and have no power at all!

No wonder you all go around whining and complaining all the time, sick and miserable!

No wonder sin rules in your churches!

God ain't dead, and  never will be, but you people might as well hold a funeral service for him at your churches because you think he is!

God never stopped God Almighty, the Lord of hosts, the high and lofty one, Lord of lords, and King of kings, God never stopped being in charge of it all, but you people have delegated God down to a position of a wimpy little imp you snub your noses at qwhile you reject his word,a nd rebel against his commandments, hell will be a far less than sufficient deserved reward for your wickedness!

AS for me, and my house we will faithfully believe the word of God and faithfully live according to ALL of the word of God, and not some perverted corruption of a few hand picked Scritptures chosen by a bunch of denominational dingy heads as a way tio justify living a hyprocites masqurade!

Paul didn't teach the lies you people say he did, if he were alive today, and he came to your churches he'd give you all a sharp rebuke and call you all a bunch of wicked sinners, and tell you to repent of the lies your spreading before you all go to hell forever!!

2757  Theology / Prophecy - Current Events / Re:The restrainer is the Holy Spirit. on: April 12, 2003, 08:44:33 AM
Here is why I believe the “Restrainer” of second Thess. 2 is the Holy Spirit.

First, we know the Restrainer is a person and not a force. According to verse 7 the restrainer is referred to “He” two times. This also rules out the restrainer being a woman.

Second, the restrainer has to be powerful enough to restrain Satan who is the one who possesses  the “Son of perdition”. That eliminates man because the Scriptures teach that man is made lower than the angels which Satan was before the fall. Also Michael the arch angel did not fight Satan in his own strength when contending with him. Jude 1: 9 “Yet  Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.”  Michael’s victory over Satan was by the power of the Lord not in his own strength. When man has victory over Satan it is the same way through the power of the Lord (Rev. 12:11). The only power that is powerful enough to prevail against Satan and his kingdom is God.

Third, John 16 shows the Holy Spirit was going to be sent to earth with a special purpose which involves all true believers in the Lord Jesus.

John 16:7 “Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.  8  And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:  9  Of sin, because they believe not on me;  10  Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;  11  Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. 13  Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, [that] shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.  14  He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of  mine , and shall shew [it] unto you.  15  All things that the Father hath are mine : therefore said I, that he shall take of  mine , and shall shew [it] unto you.”

Notice that Jesus had to depart in order that He could send us the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the third person of the God head and therefore as God He is omnipresent which means He is everywhere. So how could Jesus send us the Holy Spirit if the Holy Spirit was already here? He sent the Holy Spirit in a new capacity with a different purpose, a new agenda you might say. What was this new agenda? According to the above verses it was to (1) “reprove the world of sin”, (2) “and of righteousness”, (3) “and of judgment”. All these things work in restraining lawlessness wouldn’t you agree? It is interesting to see how the Holy Spirit would carry out this mission. According to the above passage the Holy Spirit is being sent to the believers in Christ to carry out this new agenda. According to John 14 & 15 he will set up residence in the believers for all eternity. It is by indwelling believers in Christ Jesus that the Holy Spirit will carry out this new agenda. So in order for the Antichrist to be revealed the Holy Spirit will have to be removed in this capacity. If the Holy Spirit is removed in this capacity then those that are indwelt by Him for this purpose will have to be removed as well, that is why the rapture of the church has to take place before the Antichrist is revealed. The Holy Spirit as promised was sent in this new capacity in Acts two at Pentecost. Right away we see the Holy Spirit fulfilling this new function through the preaching of the apostles and the result was that thousands turned from their wicked ways unto the Lord. I would say this left quite a dent in the kingdom of Satan and restrained his influence quite effectively in the three thousand souls who were saved by the first message of Spirit filled apostles. Wouldn’t you agree?

Hi blackeyedpeas, suzie,

Greetings in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Those who believe that one can lose their salvation also believe a gospel of salvation by works. Many of them will deny this but no matter which way you look at their doctrine it is up to the individual to live in such a way as not to lose their salvation. Therefore their salvation is based in their own works, which is condemned through out the Bible.

Eph.2:8 “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God:  9  Not of works, lest any man should boast.  10  For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.”

We are saved by grace through faith not by our own filthy works of righteousness. Good works are a result of salvation while salvation is never a result of our own works. After one has been saved by God’s grace their life will reflect the salvation they received by the good works that God will do through them.
