(My friend) Shannon mentioned again that she gets scared when she reads the Bible, which I understand. But very gradually I have been realizing that you do have to read some of the promises and the good news deliberately, otherwise you could get dragged down by the parts that are bad news. Like the part about Judas, and Psalm 109.

I used to have the same problem, the Bible is just full of scary stuff and coming from a falsely religious background, I would get sort of anxiety attacks when reading unpleasant passages and it made me think that God was accusing me. But He has not given us a spirit of fear. And


I am watching the rest of this now:

My wife and kids have been gone (left me) for thirteen months, no divorce. I miss them so terribly, but if they don't want a Christian husband and father to be the head of the family then I shall praise God anyway. Please pray for the reconciliation of my family !

$15.000 with a lease and promise to stay ? sounds like the landlord should have to pay back some of the investment to the building or the church can gut it when they leave good luck finding a judge that would rule in the church's favor

Always nice tuning in on your teachings. Thank you for sharing them. Can you answer me why were the five virgins left behind if once saved always saved is true?

I don't think the parable says they were saved, it just talks about a wedding. Amir Tsarfati (and many others) say that only half the bridesmaids had ENOUGH oil, they all had SOME. Oil is usually thought to be the anointing of the Holy Spirit. King Saul of Israel was anointed, but he became mentally ill because he kept going downhill and not really living up to the promise of the anointing, he kept sinning. God kept sending an evil spirit to him, or allowed it, in order to purify him. In my opinion it could be true that once saved we are always saved from the lake of fire, Gehenna. But Jesus mentions the outer darkness for hypocrites, the lazy servant who was neither hot nor cold but lukewarm, was double-minded, he did not repent. No fire mentioned for the outer darkness, just weeping wailing and gnashing of teeth. BUT once we are saved from the lake of fire, we have opportunities to do things for our brothers and sisters, and Jesus tells us to keep working out our salvation. So I don't necessarily agree with Charlie about once saved always saved. But I want to believe that If we keep obeying Jesus's words and keep praying for the Holy Spirit and ENOUGH of Him, we will be welcomed into Heaven when our time comes. Sorry for long answer, this has been on my mind a lot over the years.
