It's easier on your mind too, if you just accept that you brought it as a servant of the king, and that it is not yours, and never was.
There's a soul-tie that has to die right there. Our mind, our wills and our emotions.

well folks on this list seem t all be experts on how God can work and how the church must be run..
go for it.. I hand you and rain the reins on it.. and you can add to what you think christians concerns are for his body..
I thought that when you post a thread it is yours manage and to respond and set the focus of the thread. until the moment that the trolls take over.. and everyone walks away from it but the trolls.. .
you are refusing to just add to it .and both instist on finding fault and personal attacks.. . but here only to tear down and not help build up the churches and our knowledge of such spiritual subjects and this thread..
But I will leave it too now.
obviously, everyone who is a Christian and ones concerned with the states of the churches and his body physical and spiritually speaking is already been booted off of this site.
right now 2 christians can not even respond to my thread and pin and r1bbi aren't even here anymore, they gave up . and now I do .
May the Lord of this world bless all your efforts..
Jhn 15:1
¶
I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
Jhn 15:2
Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
Jhn 15:3
Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.
Jhn 15:4
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
Jhn 15:5
¶
I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
Jhn 15:6
If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
Jhn 15:7
If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
Jhn 15:8
Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.
Jhn 15:9
¶
As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.
Jhn 15:10
If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
Jhn 15:11
¶
These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.
Jhn 15:12
This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
Jhn 15:13
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
Jhn 15:14
Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.
Jhn 15:15
Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.
Jhn 15:16
Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
Jhn 15:17
These things I command you, that ye love one another.
Jhn 15:18
¶
If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.
Jhn 15:19
If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
Jhn 15:20
Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
Jhn 15:21
But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.
Jhn 15:22
If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin.
Jhn 15:23
He that hateth me hateth my Father also.
Jhn 15:24
If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.
Jhn 15:25
But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.
Jhn 15:26
¶
But when the Comforter is come,
whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:
Jhn 15:27
And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
Jhn 14:1
¶
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
Jhn 14:2
In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
Jhn 14:3
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
Jhn 14:4
And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
Jhn 14:5
¶
Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?
Jhn 14:6
¶
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Jhn 14:7
¶
If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
Jhn 14:8
¶
Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
Jhn 14:9
¶
Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
Jhn 14:10
Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
Jhn 14:11
Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.
Jhn 14:12
¶
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
Jhn 14:13
And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
Jhn 14:14
If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
Jhn 14:15
¶
If ye love me, keep my commandments.
Jhn 14:16
And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
Jhn 14:17
Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
Jhn 14:18
I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
Jhn 14:19
¶
Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.
Jhn 14:20
At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
Jhn 14:21
He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
Jhn 14:22
¶
Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
Jhn 14:23
¶
Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
Jhn 14:24
He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.
Jhn 14:25
¶
These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.
Jhn 14:26
But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
Jhn 14:27
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Jhn 14:28
Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.
Jhn 14:29
¶
And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.
Jhn 14:30
Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.
Jhn 14:31
But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.
