Re: Soul is in the blood, blood operates the brain.   Life is in the Blood   http://www.a-voice.org/main/voice082.htm   Brain and Morality   http://www.a-voice.org/portions/02-15-05.htm   I’ve heard it my whole life, in fact I’ve dealt with it also. Too many men always use the phrase, “you can look, but you can’t touch.” What harm is there in that, right? Well, when one considers how the blood operates the brain and then how the soul is in the blood, indeed Jesus’s words about lusting after a woman is the same as committing adultery, rings true.   Men can’t help it, at least not most men, right? Countless men seem to have this problem, even amongst Believers. What does the Holy Scriptures say about such a notion?   “And everyone who competes for the prize controls himself in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we an imperishable.” 1st Corinthians 9:25   The key here is ‘controls himself in all things.’ What does the bible say about people without self control?   “For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, unyielding, slanderers, without self-control, savage, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away.” 2nd Timothy 3:2-5   This is not to say that a Believer can not commit iniquity in these matters, but it should not be so.   “But sexual perversion and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be...

To be like Him

To Be Like Him   What is the ultimate goal or rather what should the ultimate goal of Christians around the world be? Shouldn’t our goal be to be like Him, the author and finisher of our faith?   “Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so persistently harasses us, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Hebrews 12:1-2   “But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.” 2nd Corinthians 3:18   “Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.” 1st John 3:2   “But no, rather, I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as refuse, that I may gain Christ and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the Law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness...

Yet A Little While

“For yet a little while, and the wicked shall be no more; indeed, you shall diligently consider his place, and it shall be no more.”  Psalms 37:10   How much longer will we, who are Believers, have to contend with those who plot to destroy the earth?  The ones who subvert everything they can.  These men of evil plots purposefully dumb down societies with education, junk food, chemicals in the water, vaccinations, chemtrails, media, television, entertainment and various other means.  These same men also promote false doctrines, increase violence in societies, wars and help cause pestilences in various places.  Who are these men?   These are those who have alligned themselves with satan, they have made a ‘deal’ with him…   “Again, the devil takes Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and shows Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.  And he says to Him, All these things I will give to You if You will fall down and do homage to me.”  Matthew 4:8-9   …and are preparing to make war against God.   “For they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go forth to the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.  Revelation 16:14   “And they gathered them together to the place called in Hebrew, Armageddon.”  Revelation 16:16   These are those who use puppet governments to create bureaucracy to further satan’s realm…   ” For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against rulers, against authorities, against the world’s rulers of the darkness...

Death Defying

The other day I watched some videos on parkour or freerunning.  This is a new hit with many younger people, mostly in Europe and Russia but also in the United States.  The concept is simple, find the shortest route between two points and take it.  If this includes climbing over buildings, jumping from rooftop to rooftop or doing many other such maneuvers, so be it.  Some of the videos online show much skill and indeed some of these young people have had gymnastics training.   To take matters even further there are also a sect of these youth who will climb radio towers, using no safety equipment, and once at the top they will take and climb over the edge, doing pushups or hanging from the steel frame in a death defying act.  When questioned about it most will give an answer that they enjoy the thrill and the rush of doing such things.   If one digs a little deeper you will find that there are news articles that some of these participants do not make the jump across the buildings.  Others fall to their death, some break their necks or injure themselves very badly.  This is the side that you do not typically see when you watch a carefully crafted video showing only the successes of the group in what appears to be movie style moves.  People have often done things like this, though this newest trend is much more dangerous than things of the past.   There have always been people who have done skydiving, extreme boat racing, mountain climbing, etc.  It is not the scope...

Ten Reasons the Holy Scriptures are True

Ten Reasons the Holy Scriptures are true.   10.)  The Holy Scriptures say so. “Knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation [origin], for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved [propelled] by the Holy Spirit.”  2Peter 1:20-21 “For David himself said by the Holy Spirit: ‘The LORD said..'”  Mark 12:36 “All this,” said David, “the LORD made me understand in writing, by His hand upon me, all the works of these plans.”  1Chronicles 28:19 “The Spirit of the LORD spoke by me, And His word was on my tongue.”  2 Samuel 23:2 “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness…” 2 Timothy 3:16   9.)  We are God’s Creation.   “Then God said, Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the flying creatures of the heavens, and over the beasts, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that moves on the earth.  So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.”  Genesis 1:26-27   “For He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust.”  Psalms 103:14   “The rich and poor have this in common: Jehovah is the maker of them all.”  Proverbs 22:2   “Woe to him who strives with the One who formed him, a potsherd among the potsherds of the earth! Shall the clay say...
