1 Peter 5:8 Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. devouring doesn't sound very passive to me

Welcome. What are your youtube videos about?

Went to the doctor this morning to get my insulin pump adjusted. I started it on Wednesday. Going well so far.

I wonder how many of us read much of what is typically called the minor prophets? Books such as Micah, Habakkuk, Nahum, Zechariah. I realize there are a few references to the coming Messiah in these books, but what else do you think is relevant in them for us today? Do you read these minor...

congratulations

I grew up Methodist, switched to Baptist at 18 and now go to a Wesleyan church.

the last time they checked on that my lab results were higher than this week. It does mean that my treatment will change slightly since I won't be on pills for it anymore since pills don't work for type 1

I found out today I am actually type 1 diabetic instead of type 2.

I have decided to go back on insulin pump and will be starting on June 5. I am hoping that this will help me get better control of my blood sugar numbers.

The point is that nobody really knows except that person and God if the person is even truly saved to begin with. If you say your a Christian I have to take your word for it because I don't know your heart or mind. Only God really knows and he is the true judge over who is a saint and who is not

yes, that's true. there is no formal canonization process. The truth is, that other people can fool us. We also have an amazing ability to deceive ourselves. We may think that we are further along in our walk with God than we truly are. Others may appear some particular way outwardly and...

I noticed on this forum there seems to be a lack of interest in eschatology for some reason. Not sure why that is.

Baptist would consider all christians to be saints.

The problem I have with that is that it says in verse 9 of chapter 7 in Revelations says that it is a number no one could count and also that they were from every tribe and nation. They aren't just Jewish and they aren't just 144,000. The idea of actually being on the earth at the time is also...

I'm glad we use water and not vinegar :;-D:

9 After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. 10 And they cried out in a loud...

"After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven, and the first voice which I had heard, like the sound of a trumpet speaking with me, said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after these things.” 2 Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a...

welcome to the forum

The actual transliterated word for this is the phrase "shall depart from" in the KJV which is transliterated aphistemi which means to make stand off, cause to withdraw, to remove to stand off, to stand aloof to go away to desert to fall away to shun, flee from to cease to vex one to withdraw...

So, if God knew that he would steal and betray Jesus and not truly repent of it then in what sense was he at one time saved? I do get it that foreknowledge and predestination are not the same. To me, if a person is truly saved then their sins are forgiven. All of their sins. If Judas had...
