Selah. 77:16 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the depths also were troubled. 77:17 The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows also went abroad. 77:18 The voice of thy thunder was in the heaven: the lightnings lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook. 77:19 Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known. |

Quoting: SecondPrecession You have disempowered yourselves, and seek to do the same to others. What are you so afraid of? So you're indirectly stating that you deny Christ... It has nothing, absolutely NOTHING to do with fear. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear has to do with punishment. He that fears is not made perfect in love. -1John 4:18 Can you understand this concept... that a lack of trust is where the fear comes from? Christ's instructions were clear, that we aught to wait for his return at the end of this age of Pisces. That's exactly what I intend to do. So I put this question on you, if believer's faith keeps them at perfect peace and without fear, although you lacked understanding, how could this be considered "not helping anyone?" |
