Do we hold God to a standard? Do we compare Him to…??? Don’t dismiss this question out of hand because I suspect we do… maybe not overtly, but subconsciously? We may not acknowledge this but I still suspect we do. Our, ‘but you did this for (fill in the blank)’ thoughts or our seeking why […]

For me, one of the most delightfully exciting parts about scripture is that it confirms itself. The confirmation comes from scripture and also along with our experiences. “For God so [greatly] loved and dearly prized the world, that He [even] gave His [One and] [a]only begotten Son, so that whoever believes and trusts in Him
I would argue that we all have some source we turn to as our Authority. Something/one that we turn to when we need support for what we are saying and doing. And yes, I have written on this subject many times, it’s because I feel we all need to know our foundation and why. Do

Enclave according to Webster: “a distinct territorial, cultural, or social unit enclosed within or as if within foreign territory”. This is NOT what the church has been designed to become. Yes, I remember the scripture that tells us to separate ourselves – 2 Corinthians 6:17. That particular scripture is referencing something that is entirely different.

According to Google, abundant (more) is fullness of joy and strength: “More abundantly” (John 10:10) means to have a superabundance of a thing. ‘Abundant life’ refers to life in its abounding fullness of joy and strength for spirit, soul and body.” Abounding, beyond all define superabundance and a status we all can attain. It can
“Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be His people, and God himself will be with them as their God. … Behold, I am making all things new.” Also He said, ‘Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.’” (Revelations 21:3, AMP) A
