God became man that man might become God

[countmeworthy]

CMW,I always love your judicious use of CAPITAL letters. I get a charge every time I read your posts.

Why Thank You. Perhaps because like you, I am 'positively obsessed' with the WORD of GOD-Jesus ! So us birds of a feather, simply flock together.

I have not been reading the forums much. I have been 'positively charged' in ministering/discipling/fellowshipping/praying/reading the Word of God with my friends.

The LORD JEHOVAH is such a wonderful GOD and how blessed and highly FAVORED we are to be in His Kingdom, to be sons of God and kings and priests unto HIM. Sometimes when I get attacked, I look at the enemy and tell him...look here you ugly devil. Don't mess with me. I'm the daughter of the most HIGH GOD...the One who created you and if He wants to all He has to do is speak a word to you and you will have not only no power but he could eradicate you forever if HE wishes. He could do it right now, this second. But He is waiting for that DAY to execute your judgment and if I were you I'd scurry out of here in trembling with much fear for the GREAT DAY OF THE LORD is at hand !

I like changing my names as I make the "jump" in cyberspace. It's a Star Trek thing.

And I say: BEAM US UP LORD JESUS ! BEAM US UP ! I know you like changing your name but I was not sure TimeLord knew this or not.

My role model in this is the Samaritan woman in John chapter 4. She ran around to everyone, saying, "Come and see! This man told me everything I have done -- is this not the Christ?"

I LOVE the story of the Samaritan woman ! I must 'confess' I loved the explanation in the Life Study of John on the Samaritan woman. It helped me understand how people indeed are not satisfied with the things of this world. It holds true even today. All we need to do is LOOK at how quickly everything in Technology is churning and being spit out ! They barely come out with some I-POD gadget and before you know it they have the I-POD Excel 4.0 super turbo...or some nonsensical sensation ! And the hoards of people can't hardly wait to get to the store at midnight when it is going to go on sale !

Aww...if only they knew that JESUS, our Precious, Sweet LORD JESUS is the living water that forever satisfies our thirst. When we say LORD JESUS....we say it all.

...things which I've uncovered in the last couple of years, and which I try to share with everyone. The first is about the apostle John, what he "saw" there on the island of Patmos. ..... I tried to share the gist of this idea. But I don't expect Timelord or anyone to read my 400+ posts and make sense of the story!!

Read 400 posts to make sense of the story!! Is it possible to condense it into ONE LONG Post ? I have been studying Revelation for some time now but it goes hand in hand with Daniel and Ezekiel & 1 Thessalonians 4 and many other books...OH...not leaving out EXODUS... Genesis and Exodus are also connected to the book of Revelation. Isn't it wonderful how the LORD reveals His secrets to His servants ?

The second thing I've seen, and I uncovered it on this forum, is the idea of the "ekklesia" being translated as what we in the local churches would call a "meeting". The ekklesia is the assembly, the gathering together of the called-out ones. Any 2 or 3 gathered in the Lord's name, blessed with His presence, is qualified as an "ekklesia". I can guarantee you this changed my spiritual life.

Mine too !!! I don't know what 'locality' you were in when in the LC and for how long and what years. I was in San Diego from 75'-79 approx. It was overall a very good church life filled with 'young people' in their 20s. I got saved through the brethren there and it was my spiritual training ground...I'm sure you know my story as I have shared it time and time again.

Well.....in the past few months, my friends have been bringing up some questions about.....our spirit...our human spirit. I began explaining it to them and so I pulled out 'The Release of the Spirit' by Nee. Can you believe how that book has helped my one friend who is reading it right now. She thanks me profusely for the encouragement I've given her. Then last night, we listened to a Psalms song CD which used to be a reel to reel tape. It was made in 1975 possibly Dallas but I have an old San Diego friend who thinks it may have been made in San Diego. I think it was made in Dallas and later San Diego made another one. You might remember many of the Psalms we sang back in the 70s if you were in the 'church life' back then.

She jumped for joy when I played it. We spontaneously began to sing the Psalms together. I have seen some threads on 'Oneness'. My friend and I have been experiencing 'oneness' in Christ for a few weeks now. And you know what ? This is almost scary.....but TRUE. I have been drilling into her scriptures about walking in spirit...and all the scriptures we learned about our human spirit that is ONE with the Holy, Life Giving Spirit. She told me yesterday she FINALLY understands why she has struggled with sin and the world for the last 20 years. She prayed last night or this morning after reading the chapters on Brokenness in Nee's book on releasing the spirit at her house. She prayed for the Lord to break her soul so her spirit could be released because the book gave her soo much insight and revelation and understanding all her struggles as a Christian. I did not push her to do anything. I simply offered her to read the book since SHE was asking me all kinds of questions.

I want her to be strong in the LORD and in His Word that she might be used mightily for the Kingdom, to the Glory of GOD ALMIGHTY, shaming the devil and his minions. I'm teaching her to walk in her position as a king and priest unto the Most High God that she might reflect as in a mirror the GLORY of the LORD so that her family and friends will see the NEW Creation in her..out with the old...in with NEWNESS of LIFE in Christ Jesus ! But I'm not pushing 'church'...except to explain how WE, the anointed believers in Christ are the church. Where ever we are we are meeting as the church. We were in the hospital at her father's bedside playing the Psalm music CD.

When meeting with others, instead of trying to recruit them to some group, I just have "ekklesia" with them. We gather and thank and praise the Lord; we bless and extol the virtues of the One who was and is and is coming; we encourage and strengthen each other's faith. And we can "feel" God's building work in us. Amazing

IT IS Brother Alan/Aron !! It is AMAZING !! Oh...Amazing Grace ...how sweet the sound, huh ? (I've used up all my smilies so I can't insert any, anymore. ARRGH !!) I HATE recruiting people into some group. We are called to recruit people to Jesus and to disciple them that they would in turn would grow strong and bring others to Jesus and disciple them. Didn't Jesus say go out and disciple the nations ? I don't recall reading recruit them into an organization or a group. BUT I do believe we, at least I received true revelation of the church and the body of Christ through the ministry we were under...Nee's teachings and of course Lee's. Sadly something went awry. Still what Satan meant for evil, GOD will as He always does turn it to good.

God is UP to something awesome !! Of course, I think the Father is getting ready to RELEASE His Son Jesus that He might descend from heaven with a SHOUT, with the VOICE of the Archangel and with the TRUMP...so that the dead in Christ will rise first and then WE who are alive and remain will be caught up with them in the clouds to meet the LORD in the Air. We are getting ready to meet our Bridegroom - KING JESUS !!! Come Lord Jesus ! Come TODAY...don't Delay !
