You're most welcome, I'm affraid that we all suffer from self-righteousness (including myself) though it can manifest in different ways.

One example I remember from you is the way you denigrated those that thought pokémon go might be occult or dangerous. It's self-righteous to think you have more spiritual insight than your mother, or other believers that recognise dangers in pokémon. You can hold a different opinion, but you crossed the line of putting other peoples opinions down intentionally and publicly. So there you go, you are a self-righteous sinner just like the rest of us, and the good news is, Jesus Christ came to save such self-righteous sinners like you and me.

God bless you

Oh boy.

I wish you could step back and actually hear how you sound, Chanokh.

Yes, the sincerity of your "God bless you" rings loud and clear.

I'm fully aware that you don't care what I think. That's why I said I wish that YOU could hear for yourself how you sound. Maybe then you would care.

I sure didn't mean to denigrate somebody, I don't remember being rude but my mouth often says things my brain doesn't catch on to right away, Please forgive me if I have denigrated you, I will give it a better go. I really don't see me and my grandson in a Pokémon cult, but I guess I should be more considerate to those who do think it is a great evil.

Yes we indeed need to have true communion with Yeshua, we see Him in the Word through the Spirit and it fills our hearts with joy right? And that comphrehension of Christ by faith is our very life and soul, also the means through which we grow in wisdom and understanding. I know the flesh profits nothing, I know by the deeds of the Law shall no flesh be justified. I know I have received eternal life and joy and happiness for free through faith in Jesus Christ, though I justly deserved eternal damnation.

Now since I came to faith, I have really received a sense of the eternal weight of things. I don't know if you believe in eternal punishment in hell? But I do, and I believe it's Biblical. I think the only reason we are not with our Lord, but here on earth, is so others might come to faith and receive that same salvation. We are not here for ourselves, not for our own spiritual growth and understanding, that will be perfect when we will be joined with our Lord. The reason we are here on earth and not in heaven, is because others need salvation, and we are a tool in the Lords hand to preach the Gospel to all creatures. That is the thing we won't be able to do in heaven, but we can do here on earth. And that is why to me that's the only priority.

Forget about mystical and deep spiritual insights in the virgins and the lamps and Judah and Ephraim etc. It's not of much worth imo, unless it is profitable for an unbeliever that is heading for eternal damnation and needs the grace of God through faith in Yeshua. And while there is a time and place for everything, I think this forum is a place where there are so many unbelievers (like Hannibal) that do not know the very basics of the Gospel. So I think it would be a good goal to communicate the Gospel clearly so unbelievers can understand it and come to Christ for salvation, since that is what I believe we are here on earth for.

I get joy every time He shows me a new revelation, for one. It comes with the territory, Amen?

I do understand your sense of the eternal weight of things, more than you know. He has shown me things which shall shortly come to pass, and you cannot help but go on the floor on your face before a holy G-d crying out for the brethren in intercession and weeping of the Spirit.

I also understand your push to get the gospel out. I have the same push to get whole counsel of G-d out, and finish the course laid before me. We all have our purposes in this hour, for of a truth, we were born for such a time as this. Blessings to you in your walk......Peace

1 Corinthians 2:13-14 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

If not, please stop hurting yourself and others pretending to understand and explain the things of the Spirit of God that you do not and cannot know.

Hannibal is born again, Chanokh......of that I am 100% sure. What he doesn't believe, is that the body (including him) was ever given the HG as it/He was given at Pentecost. I disagree with that, but it doesn't automatically translate to me that he is unsaved, just because we differ on that point.

We must remember that there are those in the body whose lot it is to bring treasures out of the snow and out of the darkness (He dwells in thick darkness). It is the Lord's doing and it is marvelous in my eyes.

Just imagine if your average Christian told someone today (had not Job already been recorded), that all the things written in the book of Job were being discussed with them by G-d NOW? Most Christians would leave nothing but a puff of smoke from their sneakers streaking away at just under the speed of light. Yet, He can and does speak of deep and seemingly complicated (though they are not complicated once He opens your eyes to the patterns) things when He so chooses.

Pretty sure neither Moses receiving the depth of the Tabernacle elaborate design and significance plus the law, nor Job receiving what he did, was in any way up to them. He speaks what He wants to, to whom He wants to. Blessings to you in your walk....Peace

There you go, Hannibal. Rbbi and Chanokh are both experts on YOUR standing with God. Aren't you fortunate that they are willing to discuss it with each other so they can, hopefully, come to a consensus about what God thinks about you and inform you as to your status?

It would be hilarious if it wasn't so pathetic.
