Re: Why did Jesus stop reading?
The biggest issue for me about the problem of evil is that it is just that: not only a problem of evil in respect of finding satisfactory answers for the calamities of life, but it Is a problem for evil in that those who have no respect or knowledge of God also do not have the resources or capacity ...

Re: Why did Jesus stop reading?
...Murray solves "the problem of evil" through his view that God does not allow evil in any way. I don't think he (Murray) solves the problem at all. If God does not allow evil in any way, then he would not have bothered coming to earth in any form to deal with it. I am more of the opinion that God...

Re: Demonic oppression recently
Willowtree and Dizerner, I decided a pm containing a long lament about our health woes was not the best course, but have instead been inspired by the 2 Chronicles 20 story you quoted. I have had some results already. Today in the bus: My clairvoyant child: "Ian, stop stopping me" Me: "what do you m...

Re: Sword? Or Spirit?
I'm sure we are all familiar with Paul's instruction as recorded in Ephesians 6 to "take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day." I am thinking in particular of verse 17: ...and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God...

Re: what is 'this hope'?
Because God wanted to make the unchanging nature of his purpose very clear to the heirs of what was promised, he confirmed it with an oath. God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be great...

Re: Demonic oppression recently
Great reply Graeme, thanks. I`ll refer back to it from time to time. I`m uncertain about "This, to me is why Jesus asked the demoniac what his name was." but definitely agree on the general tenor of your post. So am I, but here's some thoughts that contribute. A person's name is important to himsel...

Re: Demonic oppression recently
In my somewhat limited exposure to demonic control I have come to understand some basic concepts that I believe to be true and that remove a lot of confusion about what we can/cannot do and how we should proceed. Firstly, we need to recognize the levels of strength on the one hand, and authority on ...

Re: cursed objects
Nothing really looks suspicious except that voodoo doll looking thing, but it's probably okay. Most problem items are from cultures of peoples that practiced some form of idolatry. The voodoo doll looking thing would be a problem for me. If there is any doubt at all, I would not gamble my spiritual...

Re: cursed objects
What is the consensus of opinion amongst you about cursed objects around the house? Or even dols? Can they be portals for evil even if they were bought unawares and just sit there? Thanks Ian Since you have qualified the objects around the house as cursed, I would say that these objects can be 'por...
