flesh i just say Lord you know i am weak and i can not live a christian life without you help me.As soon as i do that it is effortless theres no struggle thats how we should grow.I am excited with what God is doing in my life he has opened his word i am seeing the fruit

I thought straight away this is a joke as scriptures tell us only the father knows the time
of his sons return and hes keeping it to himself he hasnt even told his son yet.Mark 13:32 This a mystery isnt God all knowing and isnt Jesus God it is a mystery.Yet I like that that is the case because it proves that the father is not the son and the son is not the father they are separate yet they are one just like the holy spirit.I have come across denominations that believe the father son and holy spirit are the one person i asked them how they can say that when Jesus was baptized we see 3 separate persons.We have enough information to know that we are in the last
days the signs are present and increasing.Ever since Israel became a nation the countdown has begun.The verse the enemy will come like a thief in the night i have heard preached many times and i believe the preachers have got it wrong because they preach it from the view for the church to get there act together or you will miss out.This view is incorrect because if you are a born again believer following him in obedience and relying on the holy spirit you are not walking in darkness but are walking in the light so you will not be caught unaware as those who are sleeping this is a warning for those who are sleeping or walking according to the
flesh they are in darkness.Remember the 10 wise virgins the ones who were alert and keep refilling there lamps went in with the bride those who slept were left behind and so it will be when the Lord returns.Now is the time to prepare our hearts and lives to be ready for his return.It is an exciting time to be living and we are to live in the expectation that the Lord could return at any time brentnz

I think we agree on the fact that it is by faith that all are saved i have no problem with that and its in that that there is unity.You find within any christian modern church law can be mixed with Grace that is not peculiar to any domination maybe it is more extreme in some.Where there are believers there are works
of the
flesh such as pride and self reliance.I was thinking today the word says if we believe in our hearts and confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord then you shall be saved.Its not a hard doctrine to believe thats in its basic form.The seventh
day have tacked on to that belief adherence to the sabbath that is sadly how denominations spring up.In the anglican church we still recite the apostles creed how many church still do that today as a basis for there faith in Jesus Christ.Your statement that some are saved is just as true to those who go to modern christian churchs who say they are christian but walk according to the
flesh..

Rick the more i think about it we are to live as overcomers not strugglers since the
day i decided to turn away from the sin that was controlling my life i never fell back into old sinful patterns not once, was i tempted many many times.The Lord will work in our lives one area at a time he needs us to give him full control so if an area is taking control we do need to hand it to him so he can change us.How do we do it immediately we say Lord you know i am weak but in you i am strong i leaned on him and overcame time and time again.We all have areas
of weakness that we struggle in so do nt feel bad.Struggling is us trying to do it in our own strength before this process i was so stubborn i refused to let God help me i wanted to do it in my own strength and so it was a roller coaster ride in my christian walk if the
day went well i was on a high if it did nt i would would be down.Not any more now when things do nt go to plan i still thank the Lord and when it goes well i thank the Lord.Because i know that all things work for good to those who love the Lord.The main area he is wanting is our hearts he wants all our heart not only some until we come to that place we will continue to struggle in our faith.The only reason to tell you this is not to boast because
of what i have done in myself because i have nothing to boast about but if i did i would brag that Christ has empowered me by his holy spirit to be an overcomer just as he would want you to be.As Christians we are all called to be overcomers more than conquerers.Make a decision today to turn all your hearts to the Lord to acknowledge the areas you are holding onto that are controlling your
flesh life hand them to the Lord and walk according to the spirit and not the
flesh and he will give you the victory.That can be a reality starting today merry christmas everyone and may the new year be an exciting one as we put all our trust in Christ our Lord and savior.Brentnz

day of Pentecost, all

Luke had been at pains to make clear that the risen Jesus was no otherworldly spirit but a physical form with
flesh and bones, 42 who consequently presented his disciples with infallible proofs.41 The risen Christ came to be regarded as having conducted a fresh ministry with his disciples, and in these forty
days he «taught them about the kingdom
of God».41 But since the experience
of the risen Christ was not
of this character at the end
of the century when Acts was written, it had to be made clear that this kind

flesh and blood, but against principalities in high places; He is suppose to be setting a principal and he is in fact destroying the thing that God stand for, serving the

flesh and spirit; he is more
flesh than spirit ever in his dress muscles and tight shirts; which has no place in the spirit;» dealing with matters
of the holy ghost «he can speck it but he can «t live it; which is the trouble with a lot
of modern
day Christians; do as i say not as i do... old fashion parents had the same concept, its not just Eddie he got caught, he was just falling weak to the
flesh and his own desires; only thing is, he is responsible for the souls

of letting us know when we are wrong that lets us know we need to change.
We can not be sure that The Flood had no relationship to all
flesh around that area having «corrupted its way»... The very protection
of mankind from natural disasters that were inevitable from the contingent, limited perfection
of the planet Earth as a habitat, might well have been mediated to human communities by great prophetic souls, even as Christ prophesied the destruction
of Jerusalem as a consequence
of his rejection, and because «in the
day of your visitation, you did not know the things that were to your peace».
For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains
of darkness, to be reserved for judgment; and did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one
of eight people, a preacher
of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world
of the ungodly; and turning the cities
of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly; and delivered righteous Lot, who was oppressed by the filthy conduct
of the wicked (for that righteous man, dwelling among them, tormented his righteous soul from
day to
day by seeing and hearing their lawless deeds) then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out
of temptations and to reserve the unjust under punishment for the
day of judgment, and especially those who walk according to the
flesh in the lust
of uncleanness and despise authority.

days of Noah (3:18 - 20).

Even in Middle - eastern culture, there are still many white people, so although it is unlikely for him to have appeared as a «white person», it's still not improbable, it does however contradict the cynic principles in Christianity, as they define him by what they believe would constitute their creator as being great or perfect as a manifestation equal to his greatness, but this was the exact mistake the Jews made, and why they disregarded Jesus when he came in the
Flesh, his appearance can be debated on, but just like his birthday, or
day of death.
You hold the firmest convictions about Our Lord; believing him to be truly «
of David's line in his manhood», yet Son
of God by the divine will and power; truly born
of a virgin; baptised by John «for his fulfilling

days of Pontius Pilate and Herod the Tetrarch truly pierced by nails in his human
flesh (a fruit imparting life to us from his most blessed passion), so that by his resurrection he might set up a beacon for all time to call together his saints and believers, whether Jews or Gentiles, in the one bodyof his Church» (Smyrna I, 1 - 6).
