Barack Obama would have us know of the religion of "peace" brought to us by Islam. Mr. Spurgeon preferred the much more important message of "peace" with God and from God.

I refer you to the message [URL=http://www.spurgeon.org/sermons/0049.htm]]]The God of Peace[/URL] (not the religion of peace) by Mr. Spurgeon from November 4, 1855. The message begins with: "Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen" -Romans 15:33

CHS's Morning and Evening: Daily Devotions

Morning, September 25

“Just, and the justifier of him which believeth.”
Romans 3:26

Frank and SF from TX
thank you both so very much for your kind response. Frank I remember past communication with you and don't recall any time that you and I were ever at loggerheads over something. In any case, again I thank you sincerely.
SF from TX I recall seeing your moniker from time to time but I don't recall ever speaking to you directly before yesterday or receiving direct communication from you before yesterday. In any case, my main point is thank you so very much.

Dolores and GSTexas
I aslo thank both of your for your kind responses.

Dolores I have always considered you a very kind friend since you and and I first communicated. If I remember correctly it all began with a conversation about Ricky Nelson's first number one hit in 1958, Poor Little Fool.

GSTexas I don't recall any communication with you previous to today. But I certainly count you now in the friend category.

thank you very much for replying in the affirmative. My head has cleared to the extent I can think fairly coherently as I wait patiently for some scheduled events to occur where I live.

I wasn`t even sure my comment had registered but I had a vague recollection of seeing the post come up with my name on it. Making this post, it took me a while to find the thread where I put the comment for I had not been coherent enough at the time to make a book mark.

And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live. (Ezekiel 47:9)

Hmmm...
How about a Rodney King???

One of the binding requirements of Revelation 1:6 is that any particular one of the group that equals the "us" of the verse is actually a person who has been saved by Jesus Christ. Such a person has, in fact, been born again and has the Spirit of God as well as Jesus Christ dwelling in him or her.

A truly saved person identifying himself as Rodney King would meet the requirements revealed in Revelation 1:6 and could call himself, spiritually speaking, to be king Rodney King

Revelation 1:6

And [Jesus Christ] hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

Note the past tense "hath made us kings". Spiritually speaking the saved are already kings. Revelation 1:6 looks at the believer's present spiritual position "in Christ". I am aware of three other Bible translations that use the word "kings" in Rev. 1.6 and I only made a cursory search.

As my birth certificate testifies to and John UK once in a while, my first name is David. Allow me to introduce my self, spiritually speaking, as king David. I don't doubt for a moment there is also, spiritually speaking, a king John UK, a king John Hranek, as well as a king Dolores and a king Christopher.

The Bible, try 1 Samuel if you want to see the book with the most references, 61, reveals that King David of the Bible had a extremely close friend named Jonathan.

Here is the rest of my previously indicated unfinished last post:

and wouldn't participate unless asked a direct question.

I then, in effect, asked God: what do I do? I have taken the time to do what he asked for even though numerous witnesses have witnessed it is time to leave the thread and now even he is witnessing it is time to move on.

The answer then, in effect, came back to not be so foolish but realize God wanted everybody to move on from continuing on that thread. God's answer also indicated to me that my job was to follow Him not what I wanted to do or Chris wanted me to do or anybody else wanted me to do.

He allowed me to understand that He would indicate to me the proper time and place for me to deal with the particular requests made by Chris if He ever wanted me to do that.

Dolores and Helps,
Spurgeon is one of my very favorite Christian writers. The gifts for writing God gave him were tremendous.

Philippians 2:4 KJV

Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.

I don't want you to think I have forgotten about you. Yesterday, I considered very carefully your request to me to explain certain things you don't understand about some of my statements as well as your request for a more simple explanation in regard to certain things.

I thought about those requests for a while realizing that God had provided several witnesses in that thread to, in effect, move on from that thread. God convinced me, that I ought to prepare a "simple" explanation of how I can state truthfully that I can be considered a Roman Catholic yet at the same time not be considered a Roman Catholic.

I then did what I was convinced God wanted me to do concerning you. He didn't tell me to then go back and post the comment thus continue the thread but rather make a "simple" comment and then go back and look at the thread. I did that but it took longer than I thought it would as my heading was just swimming because of various things occurring where I live.

When I got back to the thread you had another comment that, in effect, stated you were convinced you shouldn't be involved anymore...unless...

Dolores, your posts have matured so much that it is a cause of great praise to Father. The last few days I have been greatly edified by your writings, the fruit evidencing the source - the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ himself. Praise the Lord, and Praise him again!

Watching John Uk, Michael Hranek, and Dolores in this thread today provided
one of the greatest demonstrations of spiritual leadership I have every seen by two brothers and a sister:

Thank you SteveR for your kind words concerning me.

I tried one post tonight to see if I could think coherently after today's events where I live.

I believe I will probably be stronger and able to participate more tomorrow.

God held me up and provided some very encouraging help where I live, when I needed it most.

After more thought, I shouldn't be continuing this and plan to stay out of it unless I'm asked a question or something.

I am glad that is the choice because several medical problems right now and several other problems right now have me in no condition to do any posting today that takes serious mental activity involving complicated concentration.

It turns out that today I find that I need something "simple"

Penned then comes along and reminds us that the original topic is about something else than what has occupied this thread for two days.

Have we been given two witnesses from God to move on from what we have been encamped at for two days?

I don't know the answer to my question. If He wants us to at this point move on I am certainly agreeable. If He wants us to stay encamped dealing for the next five years with what we have been dealing with for the last two days I am also agreeable to that. What God wants me to do is what interests me.

I then asked the question to Peaceable about his statements:

Did the Holy Spirit indicate to you that you should say that? If so, I would love to see you illustrate it.

He replied three minutes later by quoting from me what I just quoted in the last paragraph. As well as asking the question of me:

Did the Holy Spirit indicate to you that you should ask that question? If so, I would love to see you illustrate it.

My answer to your question is yes Peaceable He did. For you see Jesus Christ is come in the flesh and as 1 John 4:1-2 plainly reveals I am to try the spirits for they are not all of God:

"Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:"

Some of the spirits not of God are from unsaved unregenerate men and women.
