@Rick Gimenez well its interesting much of what you said to me i would say to you. I wrote many scriptures for people to read for themselves. These scriptures do speak for themselves, did you look them over? We definitely have a difference here and i believe from scriptures speaking of us taking up our cross and dying daily and be made from glory to glory show a process of transformation through the cross and being made into his image. We have to be engaged in this process which most christians are not but instead have a form of godliness but deny the power. The cross is the power of God unto salvation and we must stay committed to this as a lifestyle which is walking by the Spirit. If we got it already and cant lose it then we dont need anymore instruction from the Bible. Nothing can change anything so who cares whatever is said after i accpeted the Lord. No these apostles gave warning and encouragement of how to stay with it and not be derailed like Alexander and Hymenus did and Paul handed them over to satan. I pray that you will take this to God and pray fervently into this because it just may be God wanting to bring you to a deeper understanding of him. Lord bless you.

@Isaac Kang listen, i agree with the first part that you wrote and that is where i am coming from. I too have been through alot ups and downs and traumatic experiences in my walk with God that has brought me closer to him through it and it is how i have learned from him and been shaped by his voice. My point of view is that the true worshippers worship in Spirit and truth. I am all about being lead by the Spirit of God, hearing his voice and being confirmed in scripture. All of that is to say that i see the problems with Christianity as a whole with so many people calling themselves Christians and defiling the name of God for the way want God to be. Its all the warnings that the Apostles wrote about are running rampant now. I want people to truly know God by His Spirit and to truly love one another which is his royal command. Sometimes love isnt going to be pleasant as iron sharpening iron, meaning people speaking the truth that others may not like but its intended to help. You feel like a Jeremiah, so do I many times. What I wrote was to help clarify myself and speak my differences from where ive learned from the Lord. Its not to hurt you and i apologize if i did hurt you. The point though is the Kingdom of God is not operating as it is supposed to be. Christianity as a whole is far from God and unless we all are willing to examine ourselves in the Lord and ask him to make us like him it wont ever get to the way it was in Acts and we will continue to have factions. People hurting outside cant be helped by people claiming to be of the Kingdom but live their version of God. We need the power of the Holy Spirit working in us through the transformation power of His Spirit. The Kingdom is not supposed to be about fear of doing something wrong and I by no means am saying that. It is about a relationship with God receiving his love and his teaching from him as we die to our flesh. It also is keeping a careful check on ourselves that we dont get deceived and that comes through constantly being open to God to check us that we think we know is true. If that wasnt an issue we wouldnt have these factions. I agree with what i see in your video about all the fake deliverance garbage going around, thats a part of the problem that im talking about. I see the grief that you felt from the abuse done by carnal Christians claiming to be in God. Ive searched out in God these issues and more with God and thats where he taught me about the cross to kill our flesh and transform us into his image. If we all truly apply ourselves to this, not out of fear but a love for the truth then we can overcome the fakers with the real thing like they had in the beginning of Acts. Hope this is helpful to you, God Bless

I agree with you, this is a great understanding for us to learn. The wilderness does symbolize tribulation and is why Israel didnt just Egypt and enter the promise land right away. It is the place where God brings us to in order to press us. Its the place where we are forced to look to him and there is no reliance upon ourselves. It breaks us down of our way and builds us in his way if we seek and trust him totally in it. It is the tribulation part of the cross that allows us to recognize our flesh and give it to die. Yeshua was fulfilling all righteousness, meaning walking through Gods purpose plan for his people as shown from the beginning therefore he was thrust into the wilderness as Israel was and as we are. Its a must!

Yea theres always next time!

Yes so many times, One time in particular I can mention is when my son was diagnosed with cancer and I went into the throne room of God crying out to him and I could really see him sitting on the throne and I put my son on his lap and he said he is going to be fine he is my responsibility. It came out just as he said and he is healed. I've learned that you know when it's truly God speaking to you if what is said comes to pass and produces fruit unto life and what his Kingdom is about. So many times he has spoken to me and taught me and said things that Came to pass and shown that it was by his spirit and not a lying spirit.

Yes and we do celebrate our Lord's birth even though it wasnt actually this day, but its good to celebrate together our King who will return soon!
