Christianity Oasis Forum


Hosted by Saint 701 ... This forum is for the purpose of examining the subject of Grace and its great place in God's work in the body of Christ Jesus of which we are a part. "The Book of Romans" was chosen for the title since that book is so rich in Grace to us, but in no way is this forum limited in examining Grace to only the "Book of Romans."

Hello All,

2Pet.3

[3] Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
[4] And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
[5] For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
[6] Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
[7] But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.


Have been amazed the past few days how much damage one little ol' volcano has done to disrupt the world routine. Makes one think about the powder keg we all are sitting on. Brought to my mind the scriptures above speaking of how our Heavenly Dad foresaw things would be in our day..a world full of ignorant people determined to go to hell. It brought to mind how in the day of Noah water was already in place beneath the feet of those He foresaw would choose perdition over life. It brought to mind how that in our day fire rests beneath our feet kept in store for the same purpose of His judgment of ungodly men.

Not that subsurface activity isn't enough to get the job done. We have built our world on fire! Oil and gas pipelines crisscross every nation on the planet. It doesn't take much to envision the nightmare of disruptions in world affairs on the horizon.

We have been counseled to watch and pray, look up for our redemption draws near, and gather together all the more as we see the day approach. We have been counseled to come out of non-spiritual religious institutions which are in effect Mother Babylon and her children, Harlot and Abomination. Such is no joke.

We don't contact God in the pew! We contact God in the Spirit! We must be born again of HIS SPIRIT! We must be filled with His Spirit! His Spirit leads us into all truth! We must worship Him in the Spirit and Truth! We must be able to pray in the Spirit! We must be able to war in the Spirit! There is no spiritual life apart from His Spirit! Jesus is the Way, The Truth, and the Life! The Way is His Spirit! The Truth is His Spirit! The Life is His Spirit!
